(Anonymous) 2012-12-27 01:48 am (UTC)(link)he would live, yes, but not like before. Dying is still dying!
He ISN'T immortal. There is still a chance of ACTUALLY dying before the regeneration works. you should know that. and it is his right to fear that.
And about the reward thing: NOW you really want to make him human. in everything. but he isn't. he is from another planet and he grew up with all the talks about time and space and even the TARDIS is a normal device from where he comes from. It's nothing special there... just like regenerations. how can you say that's his reward? It's not a REWARD it's everything he has LEFT.
Killing is killing. No matter for what reason. and I'm sure Ten thought, if there is hope for The Master then there is hope for himself, too. He didn't forgive himself for that yet, even if it was the right decision. It's not that easy.
at last, I'll just copy what I said in my own comment:
This regeneration was unlike others. It didn't happen out of a moment. he had to prepare for it. He KNEW it was coming. (And Eleven learnt from that, when he faced the astronaut.)
I can't believe there are people who pick their favourite regeneration... It's always the doctor. And whatever changed him in his new generation is the result of what happened before.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-27 02:13 am (UTC)(link)He stole the TARDIS. It was not owed to him. Having a car is pretty normal in most first world countries, but most people appreciate and are excited about having cars. They like the opportunities it offers him.
And I'm saying there's pretty much no reward that can be offered to him greater than what he already has. I'm sorry, but the Doctor has been rewarded enough. He gets all of time and space as his reward, something almost no other person has.

I can't believe you don't understand why one would.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-27 10:29 am (UTC)(link)Yeah, a regular damn car might suck then, but we're not talking a regular damn car. We're talking the TARDIS. The Doctor can have ANYTHING. There's really nothing that can be denied to him. What could someone possibly reward him with that he can't already claim?
It's like Bill Gates thinking he deserves a reward for all that money he's been donating to charity--ya still have billions, Bill! I understand feeling sad and lonely, but, no, the Doctor is possibly the luckiest and most privileged person ever, and if people close to him has died, it's either because he killed them or he brought them into dangerous situations.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-27 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)Hm. Not much of a reward really, perhaps, more like his good deeds are karmic collateral for stealing said TARDIS. (And maybe taking him to places he ought to be is the TARDIS's karmic collateral for stealing a Time Lord....)
but we're not talking a regular damn car. We're talking the TARDIS.
I live in a culture in which cars are very common. Maybe not universal, but certainly common. Such is (was) a TARDIS to a Time Lord.
I understand feeling sad and lonely, but, no,
But someone who has no need for money and can travel has no reason ever to feel sad, amirite? Bill Gates has money! He could come to hate his job and feel isolated from everyone around him, and I'd feel sorry for him BUT he's got nicer stuff than I have, so, eh, fuck 'im, right?
but, no, the Doctor is possibly the luckiest and most privileged person ever,
Well, him and all the other Time Lords, while they were extant.
and if people close to him has died
Or he out-lives them, either in straightforward chronology or because he skips in and out of their lives (e.g. Reinette).

(Anonymous) 2012-12-27 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)You know a lot of people say "I liked Season 1 character, but not Season 2 character", because changes in that very same character make them unrecognizable and unlikable? You know that people, in real life, grow apart because one or both has changed too much?
