Rose Tyler.

[jedi_of_urth]

It's been a while since I watched DW, so my opinions aren't going to be very fresh, but here goes.

Why I like them: Rose was a really well developed character, with realistic quirks and flaws and who grew tremendously over the course of her time on the show. But what I loved most about her was probably her stubbornness, that she refused to accept the impossible odds she faced to get what she wanted.

Why I don't: I will never like the way her story ended, which isn't entirely a judgement on her as a character because my problem with it is that it doesn't feel in character. In character if I pound that square peg into a round hole long enough I don't actually dislike her for making that choice, but all those years later I still don't accept that that's the choice that makes sense in character. Yeah, that's less something I dislike about her and something I find frustrating as a fan of hers, but that's what you're getting.

Favourite Season: They all have their qualities, she had the most developed journey in s1, I like that s2 is more settles, and she's just badass in s4.

Favorite episode: Probably Father's Day, PotW, or Turn Left

Favourite Line: I'm going to have to plead forgetfulness on that one

Favorite outfit: I'm going to say her s4 outfit, but I mostly forget outfits (I seem to recall New Earth was nice too)

OTP: Doctor/Rose, always (except for that time I spent a year or so shipping Rose/Daniel Jackson, though it was still just a rally great second choice)

Brotp: I'm down for some Rose, Martha, and Donna save the galaxy action. Although my headcanon world for Rose and the SG1 team is also valid.

Unpopular opinion: I'm not sure what popular opinion is in this fandom anymore. See my above opinion on Journey's End though.

A wish: That RTD would write a mini series about Rose and Cloen that would make me finally accept the ending we got and give us new material.

An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: Moffat getting his grubby hands on Rose/her era on the show/her relationship with the Doctor/her importance in the show...look I don't like the way Moffat treated Rose even in RTD's run (not that he was good with any of the RTD era companions). There are reasons I decided not to stick with this show.
