Let's have some Doctor Who, shall we? Good, I'm glad we're agreed ; )

Things with whose perfection I am entirely incapable of putting up right now (vid edition):

Moves Like Jagger (Eleven/everyone) by lady_with_cats So, I have this song on my iPod at the moment, and I keep cracking up at inopportune times because . . . well, you'll see. Because the Doctor knows he is a smooth gq fucking rockstar, and he might even be right.

Safe to Shore (Amy, Eleven) by niyalune This vid almost makes me feel like we are back in season five again, just enjoying the joys and sorrows and adventures of Amy and her Raggedy Doctor, all while connecting it to season six and its complexities, and oh I love it so. The essence of these two together.

I Would Hurt a Fly (Eleven, his relationships, and his journey) by gnattery I won't mince words: this vid is the reason for this post. Because somebody made an epic, meat-y, meta-y vid about the relationship between the Doctor/the TARDIS/the Time Lords/the Master/the Universe/the Doctor's own darkness/Amy/Rory/River/and everything else. Oh, and it's beautiful. That's all.

(I know I owe comments on my last post--please forgive me. But I loved your insights and I will get back to it. Also: have watched Avatar: Legend of Korra and suspect it might be amazing, if flawed.)

Ooh, thanks for sharing! I'd seen the Safe to Shore one, but had passed it by--you're right, it's lovely!

Very very happy to : ) I've had that with vids so often--either I'm not in a vid-y mood when one comes my way or I watch one and for some reason it doesn't click for me the first time through and then I move on and forget about it. So many vids that have only really caught me later.

Love that one, though. My meta may be River-centric, but in many ways my experience of actually watching the show is all about Amy and the Doctor, and that vid just captures the best of that dynamic. It is going to be so hard to let go.

It is going to be so hard to let go.

Oh man, it totally is. Was Eleven your first Doctor? I started watching just a little before S5 aired, so even though Ten was really my first, Eleven is definitely my Doctor.

Thankyou so much for reccing. :D

[promethia_tenk]

My only regret is that tying people down and forcing them to watch isn't particularly feasible over the internet.

But I shall do my best.

omg, thank you so much -- I hadn't seen two out of the three of these, and they are making my day.

So happy to hear it; such goodness must be shared : )

I'm so glad I caught the "Moves Like Jagger" vid -- it appears to have been deleted by YouTube, or something. Alas!
