Dw Rogue - Tumblr Posts
the “show within a show” theory continues!
y’all remember how in space babies, the ship created the bogeyman because there’s supposed to be a monster?
rogue fits an archetype just a little too well. he’s smart and witty and full of bravado and clicks with the doctor instantly.
a lot of us had the theory that rogue was secretly jack harkness. and the thing is, he still basically is. he’s the archetype laid out by jack. doing some sketchy work, flirty and angsty, changes his heart and sacrifices himself at the end. and how many american accents do we hear on doctor who anyway?
so maybe space babies was designed mimic to the end of the world. and rogue was designed to mimic the empty child/the doctor dances (also! the doctor danced!)
maybe ruby is supposed to be the prototypical companion, be quite a bit like rose and clara. maybe rogue is supposed to be like jack.
maybe this new “season one” is supposed to be like 2005 season one.
it’s not little references meant to make you think of the past, this is an act. this is cosplay.




Just a few Doctor Who textpost memes I made :D
