Already seen by a few on my flist, but what the hey.

Take this with 25 grains of salt, obviously. Those damn DW rumors have driven many people to drink. Um, me to drink. ("Rose is going to be in Last of the Time Lords. I SWEAR.")

I have to admit to a knee-jerk weirding-out reaction to the whole "Smith" thing.
  1. I do tend to flinch when in fandom Ten II is just "John" or "Dave" or "Gomer" and no longer really the Doctor. He's just some dude who looks like the Doctor. (Although then I calm down. See below.)

  2. "Rose Smith" just doesn't sound as good as "Rose Tyler." :D
The name thing doesn't bug me for too long. It's obvious from the unaired (but shot) scene with the altverse TARDIS, that RTD never meant Ten II to suddenly say, "Thank god all that adventure and traveling is over! I'm gonna become an insurance salesman! And I think I'd quite like to take up knitting with Jackie." Even if you don't like the notion of a new TARDIS, I think you could bet it won't be a sedate lifestyle.

I like the new TARDIS idea, but even with that it takes time to grow. Also, I could see them spending more time with the Tyler clan and so on. So a fictitious name for paperwork purposes makes sense. And marriage requires paperwork. :D

*SQUISH SQUISH SQUISH SQUISH* I assume the proposal went something like this:


Doctor: Rose? I think we should get married. This is because I think it would be beneficial for everyone involved and not because that guy over there looked at you for point two seconds beyond the social norm. Plus there would be lots of cake. Not that we couldn't have cake without it, but cake is always good. And this would be important, serious cake. Because this is serious. Also that bloke is gone now, which is good because I was starting to think he had a problem. An alien problem. Well, a half-alien problem, that is. HEH HEH. Get it?

Rose: O_O



Jackie: I CALL DIBS ON WEDDING PLANNING!



Doctor: JAYSUS. H. HORSERADISH. ON SECOND THOUGHT...!



Rose: [distraction snogs]



Doctor: [is thoroughly distracted]


And off they go to have many fabulous adventures where the Doctor likes to come up with as many different terms for "spouse" as he can think of, usually while battling monsters. ("Note to self, 'ball and chain' will get a very dirty look both from Rose and from a Runalian Slime Bear. Runalian Slime Bear much less concerning.")

Anyway, sounds like it's just one scene that BP's doing, so probably no Rose for the regeneration. *sniff* Not sure how just one scene will fit into the bigger scheme of things. Maybe Eleven will send the coat to the altverse? *CROSSES FINGERS*

Can I start "lalalala"-ing at the inevitable "See?? Rose only ever wanted to make the Doctor settle down and get married and pop out babies!" already?
