OP, it was the Martha Stans who really drummed in the Rose/Doctor hate, and it sort of went on from there and grew and grew into this behemoth of hatred towards the pairing in large pockets of fandom, when at the time when season 2 was airing, people weren't so vocal at all.

But you know, Haters Gon' Hate.

THAT scene is a constant tearjerker :(

(Anonymous) 2011-11-24 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I always thought it was the Classic Who fans who fuelled the most Rose!hate coz of how she was overshadowing the older companions or something. I'm mostly going by that ridiculous fanart everyone kept posting a while back of Rose standing beside all the older companions and complaining about thinking she was special. :(

Strange how I can't remember her being like that in the show.

[identity profile] nomorefrostbite.livejournal.com 2011-11-24 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
SOME Classic fans didn't like her because of the romance element, but tbh all of MY old friends in the Who fandom IRL and online were also major major Classic fans too, just like I was, and they all LOVED Rose.

It was a few Classic fans during Rose's time who moaned, and after it was usually Martha stans. I say stans rather than fans because THEY STANNED MARTHA SO HARD.

Companions come and go as Regenerations do really. People need to understand that.

ONLY THE MASTER IS FOREVER...

Ugh, that fanart is the worst. I mean, has Rose watched Classic Who? No. She has not.

So how would she know about the older companions? All she knows is what the Doctor told her. And what the Doctor told her was WAAAAH EVERYONE I KNOW IS DEAD, I'M ALL ALONE IN THE UNIVERSE, PLEASE DON'T EVER LEAVE ME ROES.

(Anonymous) 2011-11-24 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Not to mention that Sarah Jane was just as jealous and patronizing towards Rose and yet, for some reason, Rose is the bad guy in that episode.

(Anonymous) 2011-11-24 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
YES. But it's okay, because she knew the Doctor first! But at the same time it's NOT okay when Rose says she knew the Doctor before Martha.

(Anonymous) 2011-11-24 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
And Rose isn't the first companion to be jealous because someone else knew the Doctor before her. In the story Battlefield; Ace became really possessive of the Doctor and bitterly jealous towards the Brigadier when she met him and saw how close he and the Doctor were.

And yet Ace is remembered as a fan favourite. Or maybe it's okay when the jealousy isn't romantic. That makes sense. -_-

Rose and Martha just needed to have a sleepover in the TARDIS during the whole "towing the earth home" thing in JE. They'd just complement each other on how awesome they are and lament Ten's emotional failings.

[identity profile] writerserenyty.livejournal.com 2011-11-25 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
I want a fic so bad.

That scene in JE makes me SO happy, because Rose/Martha friendship is what I want. A lot.

(Anonymous) 2011-11-25 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I loved that Sontaran episode where Martha and Donna met up, and they struck up a friendship almost right away, and you could see the Doctor in the background thinking "Not sure if want..."

That fanart is obnoxious. How dare Rose think she could ever mean anything to the mighty Doctor! She should watch Classic Who and learn her place like all the others! Ugh.

[identity profile] writerserenyty.livejournal.com 2011-11-25 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
I think it depends. I've seen a lot of classic Who fans bash on Rose. However, I know a Classic Who fan who just was watching New Who for the first time and he definitely thought that Doomsday was REALLY sad.

Idk, I think people just hate :/

(Anonymous) 2011-11-24 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahaha yeah, it's a closed circle! Some Rose stans had a kneejerk reaction to Martha, so Martha stans decided both Rose and her stans are horrible people. So Rose stans started to defend themselves. And now we're in like a neverending war.

I love your icon, it makes me LOL. Best finale ever.

[identity profile] nomorefrostbite.livejournal.com 2011-11-24 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I was a Rose fan, but I get that companions come and go, so I was ok with her leaving, given the epicness of it... and then Martha came along and I didn't like Freema's wooden acting or Martha's annoying pining over/fancying of the Doctor because frankly it came off as so so desperate and ruined the character, but I was willing to give her a chance.

Then the SECOND I start warming to her and accepting her, a few eps in, the hardcore Martha stans start seriously hating on Rose and Rose fans, so I get offended, and go from disliking Martha to HATING MARTHA in some kind of retaliation and response.

Like you say... neverending war and vicious circle!!

Thankfully then Catherine Tate happened, and everything settled down a bit. Though never completely.

PEOPLE NEED TO RECOGNISE, THE MASTER IS THE ONLY TRUE COMPANION.

PEOPLE NEED TO RECOGNISE, THE MASTER IS THE ONLY TRUE COMPANION.

It's kind of funny you say that because I've been watching some of the early Master episodes like Mind of Evil and Claws of Axos and there's moments were the Doctor and the Master work together and...it's like he's more of a companion than Jo is in those stories! ^_^

But personally Doctor/TARDIS is my OTP.

[identity profile] nomorefrostbite.livejournal.com 2011-11-24 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
YOUR ICON IS FLAWLESS.

Their tragic schoolboy love truly is forever. I feel a rewatch of all the old Master eps coming on!

[identity profile] lolofielding.livejournal.com 2011-11-24 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! I can't take credit for it but t'is beautiful.

It really is! I love the subtext between Three/Delgado!Master almost as much as between Ten/Simm!Master. Maybe because Jon and Roger were such close friends in real life that their chemistry is gold but I also love how back then the Master is all; "Join me, Doctor. Let's rule the universe together!" and Three, just for a moment, looks tempted. And then 40 odd years later when it's Ten asking the Master to join him and travel with him, Master's all like; "...Fuck you."

Damn, I don't contribute nearly as much to this ship as I should. Might make a fanvid to remedy that soon. In the meantime, I love this;

Well you know what they say about Timelord Scorned!!

I tell myself JK Rowling was a Classic Who fan and decided to make Ron less of a megalomaniac and far more thoughtful, and Hermione more noble and sensitive, but originally intended to write a DOCTOR/MASTER & THE RANI TIMELORD ACADEMY BOOK.

Only with magic.

Oh God. Can't...unsee... 0_o

There's also the scene in The Sea Devils where Three is telling Jo how they used to be friends at school together it reminds me so much of Obi Wan telling Luke what a 'good friend' Anakin Skywalker was. Even freakier when I remembered that it was DW that did it about 5 years earlier.

[identity profile] nomorefrostbite.livejournal.com 2011-11-24 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
It's shocking just how much everything is copying Classic Who!!

I feel for JR, I really do. All that time and effort writing her first manuscript, only to find that damn... Master is too nice and doesn't want to take over the world, Rani is too sensitive and cares about her friends. QUICK. RENAME THEM AND MAKE THIS NOT ABOUT OUTER SPACE.

Her Classic Who characterisation errors obviously worked out well for her financially though, so good for her.

[identity profile] lolofielding.livejournal.com 2011-11-24 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Right I'm just gonna go through all my Harry Potter books now and replace the words Harry, Ron, Hermione, Hogwarts, Dumbledor, Voldemort with Doctor, Master, Rani, Prydonian Academy, Old Hermit Guy in Planet of the Spiders and Rassilon. And obviously just change all the magic lessons to...I dunno, time-ology or whatever.

Then we'll have cracked JK's master code! Pun not intended.

It just really upsets me that the Doctor's dad was such a bully to the Doctor's Spatial Anomaly Manipulation professor :((((

This is fun

[identity profile] lolofielding.livejournal.com 2011-11-24 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Me too. But I'm glad The Meddling Monk was able to prove himself as more than a bumbling loser in the end and cut off that snakes head with the Sword of Omega. ^_^

LMAO THIS IS PERFECTION.

You just know the Master spent an entire year going "Ooh, you want me to travel with you? I remember the last time you made me that offer. Don't you remember that? It ended in you stabbing me in the back and then telling me you wouldn't shag me if we were the last two Time Lords on Gallifrey. Heh heh. Bet you regret that one now, don't you, Gramps?"
