Doctor Who The End of the World | 1.02

Thinking about Charles "constantly considering everyone else's feelings" Rowland and Edwin "has never had his feelings prioritized ever" Payne

----

May 1991. A library in London.

Edwin slammed his notebook down onto the table, making Charles jump.

"What is it?"

"If I have to endure that noise for much longer, I am going to go mad."

"Er… What noise, mate?"

"Don't tell me you cannot hear it," Edwin replied, going a tinge wide-eyed at the thought.

They sat in silence for a moment. Charles strained his ears. He could just make out a soft, electric hum. "That buzzing?"

"Yes!"

Charles grimaced sympathetically. "Think it's the lights, mate. The fluorescents do that. I didn't even notice 'til you said something."

Miss Lasagna herself is finally here!!!

"The answer's gotta be in there... somewhere" - and it was! We found our winner! The gif that can now proudly call itself the best gif/moment of episode two :) But the finale was incredibly close, so I also want to give a shout out to our second place gif, loosing out on the top spot by only a handful of votes... 💙 And finally, I love that Niko made third place in her episode - poetry! ✨

1st place

2nd place

3rd place

Thanks to everyone who still takes part in these tournaments and finds some joy in making impossible choices! You are all aces :) The next tournament might have to wait a little bit, I'm not sure when I'll have the time to set it up. But rest assured, it will happen! Lots of love, Tink

It started as a joke, but I kind of became invested in the process...

I imagine them bonding over being married to their jobs. They synchronize their lunch breaks, but since none of them can eat, they spend time chatting instead. The Notary talks about her children (those that "graduated" under her jurisdiction), and the Postman shares how proud he is of his (the ones he delivers mail to). For both of them the job comes first, and they respect that in each other.

George answers a couple questions via Cameo!

Charles maintaining eye contact with Edwin while he wiped his tears away really got to me today

The first time, they encounter a threat big enough to have them have to flee to regroup, Edwin freezes.

Charles recognizes the response immediately and knows that if he doesn't force Edwin to move, he won't. So he takes hold of his arm, spins him bodily, releases him and presses his palm against the small of Edwins back, and forces him forward, away from danger.

It becomes a thing.

Once Edwin is in motion, he runs like he was born to do it, but often, he freezes first, and Charles has to make him move.

The don't talk about it.

Edwin because it's the lingering response born out of decades in hell, freezing to not draw attention to himself, running when forced to.

He tried to apologize in the beginning, and Charles would always rebuff it.

"It's alright" and he meant it every time.

Charles doesn't talk about it either. Not just out of respect for Edwin's wish not to talk about it, but because he recognized the response from his own home.

Any time his father raged, his mother would freeze, standing so so still as to not drag attention to herself, crying quietly and unable to move. She wouldn't unfreeze until the violence was over, softly treading towards Charles to look him over and apologize again and again.

"It's alright," he'd say, and it always tasted bitter on his tongue, but he knows she couldn't react in any other way unless forced to move.

So he forces Edwin to move.

Part two to this

30 notes and I’ll make more comic content

I miss them so bad, I mean absolutely no hate to the show but they just aren’t the same

And I know it doesn’t matter but Paine>>>>>Payne and whoever decided to change it needs to be fired
