Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

She was so upset when he was going to regenerate it seems that it was Ten specifically she wanted.

But the first time it happened it didn't ruin things. And he's shown his devotion to people runs through regenerations.

Actually, I think that the relationship between Rose and the Doctor changed between Nine and Ten. With Nine, there was closeness and a non-physical love, but she was so touchy-feely with Ten that I'm convinced they were keeping busy in the TARDIS bedroom. So I can understand her being upset over the possibility of Ten regenerating during Journey's End.

Hey, I just saw an ad for Life on Mars on WTTW - i.e., Chicago PBS.

Oooh, really? That's great!

I taped the full series off of BBCA OnDemand, which I'm pretty sure included the complete episodes as broadcast in the UK, but I still haven't watched them--maybe over Christmas weekend!

Nine was gettin' it from Jack. Or maybe they all were getting it from Jack. He's like that.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

"I think Jack would like this dance."

"Oh, I'm sure of that. But with who? With who?"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think Nine and Rose and Jack were getting it on. Things didn't change until Jack became an immortal abomination.

Oh, I don't know about that--I got the impression that those kisses they exchanged in that season finale were the first ones.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I don't know. Remember the extreme giggliness they Rose and the Doctor sometimes had? Remember how silly they were in Queen Victoria Werewolf episode where Torchwood was founded. Looked like two people who had had extremely good sex.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Oh, I don't know about that--I got the impression that those kisses they exchanged in that season finale were the first ones.

I think I agree with Kathy on that. Nine was definitely cutting her away from the herd, not letting Jack or Micky get a leg over, but he was not about to, as Nine would see it, take sexual advantage of such a vulnerable human. I think maybe Ten not only "imprinted" on Rose, but a bit on Jack, such that he absorbed some of that sex-positive attitude, which not only tied him closer to Rose but let him be looser with the sexual responsibilities of his great and doomed race.

oops. I see we were talking about Nine. I guess everyone is on board with the Ten/Rose sex being implied, and probably Ten/Rose/Jack. (I don't mean fanfic, but pretty strongly implied in Canon, even though not Canon - really strong subtext.)

Jack Harkness's middle name is "really strong subtext."
