Speculation!

[mrv3000]

Oh man. Remember how last year they were giving us TARDISodes during the finale arc? Wasn't it daily TARDISodes? Or were they even calling them TARDISodes? They were tiny preview clips. I remember the massive theory in fandom that Rose would wind up leaving the Doctor, to, um, "grow up" or something. A few us muttered to each other that we *swore* that wasn't how we were reading canon, but what did we know? But the thought of Rose up and leaving the Doctor was so loathsome that a few of us were talking about wanting her to have a heroic death instead of that.

And then the TARDISode aired of that "never leave you" scene and there was this \o/ and "I knew I hadn't been imagining those scenes in TIP and PotW!" (You can never quite tell - fandom so often makes you start thinking canon was all this dream.)

Why am I saying all this? Because Martha hasn't updated her myspace yet, and I'm a bit sad.

ETA: HA! I've begun to talk to myself with the spec. Feel free to mock.

1. Hmmm. Had a thought about Lucy. She seemed *really* keyed in on this event - like "how long do we have to wait?" which sounded a bit...Toclafane. Plus the Toclafane are very "Where's the Master? We love the Master!" Whatever the Toclafane are, I'm wondering if Lucy just got a human body. ETA: Oh. Wait. That woman from Torchwood was talking about how Lucy actually *had* a history and a past, unlike the Master. Nope, Lucy's just wonderfully batshit. :D ETA2: Oh, but if the Toclafane *are* #2, then she'd just have this slot to slide into... Yup, WAY over-thinking this. The ending will probably turn out to be because of squirrels or something.
   
   
2. OH LORD. I just had a horrible thought. 6 billion - about the population of the planet, right? What if these balls are sort of Cybermanish? And...these entities/balls are people from Rose's AU, which was starting to collapse from the whole thing last year. *SOBS* (Yes, I'm afraid I just won't be able to let go of the Rose speculation for this finale, and yes, I'm aware she went bye-bye in Doomsday.) ETA: Although, would people really be willing to slaughter other people just to live? I guess like the Doctor said though, some of the most horrible acts have been committed because of fear.
   
   
3. For some reason I keep getting the feeling that there's going to be a bit of a reset at the end. I don't know why. The paradox machine, maybe. And killing off a tenth of the planet seems really, really dark, even for Doctor Who. Plus, Martha really needs her flat.
   
   
4. ETA: All right, where's the bloody Dalek? You just KNOW it's gonna pop up in the finale. DUDE! Maybe the Toclafane are the love children of the Cybermen and the Daleks!! Okay, I should probably just stop now.
