time is dying because of you
#condescending doctor is condescending#this whole episode kind of convinced me that the doctor isn’t ready to love river the way she loves him#i imagine having someone love him that much is terrifying#like obviously he is falling in love with her but he’s in love with future river - the one who gets him#which is kind of amazing because now he has to learn to love every version of her just like she has to learn to love every version of him#ugh so complicated

DEAN: I don’t want you to think this is - this is him, yanno? I wish you’d met him before. So you’d know how wrong this is. How much this —
DOCTOR: Hurts?
DEAN: How much this isn’t Cas, but yeah, hurts. Hurts works.
DOCTOR: Almost like you’re grieving. But so, so much worse, because someone else is wearing his skin.
DEAN: How d’you know?
DOCTOR: I’ve seen power wear glorious men before.
