you're not...

You know, I think I would have been a lot happier with this episode if they hadn't led us on. The ending was plenty angsty enough for me, but they've been drilling into our heads for I don't remember when that she was going to die, and at the beginning of the episode she said "this is the last story I'll ever tell". I mean, that line doesn't really fit with the idea of "what I meant was that was the day I died was that that was the day put down in the records from my original universe that I died". That says "I became extinct". I think if they hadn't pulled that I would have been thoroughly content (although I don't know if bawling is considered content) with the ending, but as is it left a bit of a sour taste in my mouth.
Also, The Doctor's face when he thinks Rose is pregnant with Mickey's kid:

Yeah, if that's not sexy, I don't know what is. (What can I say: angst turns me on.)

I'll be spending some time in time_and_chips over the next couple of days, I think. If only I had more icon space...
