I <3 Rose Picspam

ivydoorOkay, with all the wank over Martha and the anxiety about tomorrow's episode, I thought it would be a good idea for us D/R guys and gals to take some time to look at some pretty pictures and remember our Rose!zen.
This post is not locked. Don't like Rose? Move along, nothing to see here. If it becomes a problem, I will delete bashing posts and flock this to the deep dark recesses of the prairie dog network. Capisce?
Unfortunately, my main computer is down for now, so S1 will have to be a separate picspam. I figure we can use that to get over the trauma of Saturday's episode. There are so many great moments that show us who she is, its hard to narrow it down. Many of these have been pointed out by folks a lot better at it than me.
I love how Rose is just so enthralled with the combination of traveling to different planets with the Doctor, one reason alone is just not good enough. She's such a bundle of energy.
She's just been through a pretty big ordeal but she can't help the big goofy grin for the Doctor. Heh.
I have this theory that, after this adventure, it became a never ending game of the Doctor trying in vain to beat Rose at a bet.
He was destined to lose. Poor thing.
She never buys his BS, only plays along.
She's a very flawed character. Truthfully, the Daddy issues drove me bonkers, but it makes her "so human".
This wordless exchange is still one of my favorites.
*smiles*
...
*still smiling*
*pwned*
She's all excited thinking she's gonna get to dress up...
And is terribly disappointed.
And the look on the Doctor's face is priceless. Once again, she doesn't have to say a word to completely own him.
She finally gets dressed up...
and the Doctor tries to remember exactly why he doesn't make her do this more often.
Awww...She's just so happy with him.
Speaking of happy...
Rose gets picked on a lot for her lack of education. I think those folks really need to watch her again. She's bright and endlessly curious. She just soaks up information.
And she's just as big of a dork as the Doctor.
This is one of my favorite scenes, for obvious reasons. She's grown up a lot. And she makes it clear that as much as she loves the travel, she stays for him. Not out of obligation, but because she wants to.
I love the little non-smile he gives her. *squishes them*
Another really cute moment.
Awwwww. Hee! He just looks like every thought in his head just went bye-bye.
When it all goes to hell, Rose steps up to the plate. I've seen her blasted for this as well, for some weird reason. Usually folks are put out that it wasn't her place. Well, someone had to take charge when the crew began to fall apart. And she'll be damned if they are just going to give up while her Doctor is down there.
And even when they do give up, she stands her ground. I love that she will stand up to anyone, no regard for position or rank.
Tongue!porn
What? How the hell did that sneak in here? This is supposed to be about ROSE.
I brought this up in a discussion on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
oh_she_knows: In TCI, the UNIT officer calls the Doctor "the stuff of legend". At the end of TSP, Ida asks "You two. Who are you?" to which the Doctor replies "Oh...the stuff of legend." He places her there with him as his equal. It doesn't matter that she's low class, poorly educated, or young. She's every bit worthy of the title as he is, based on her actions and who she is.
Of course, that doesn't mean she doesn't make mistakes now and again.
Above everything else, her one defining trait is her compassion. We see this time and again, everyone is worthy of her compassion. Even the ones trying to hurt her.
She accepts the fact that sometimes...
he's just plain weird.
She's got great instincts and is very observant.
And is always willing to get dirty to help someone.
She knows when to ignore her instincts, too.
She keeps his manners in check.
I love that she picks up the construction worker and swings him around. Cracks me up. She includes everybody in the celebrations. Even if their help was entirely coincidental.
Another little digression here. This episode was very symbolic of the relationship between the Doctor and Rose. The announcer calls the torch he is carrying "a symbol of love". What we've seen throughout S3 so far is the fact that he is still carrying that torch. For Rose.
That observant thing doesn't just apply to weird situations.
Still doesn't believe half of what comes out of his mouth. Heh.
I love the relationship she has with her mother. There is no doubt in my mind that no matter their differences, they love each other.
Rose has absolutely no problem laughing at the Doctor...
not with him. Heh.
She may love her mother, but she's her own person. Jackie was terrified of Rose growing up and leaving her alone. She had been afraid of life since Pete had died. So when Rose chose to live freely, it frightened her.
She doesn't let her mother manipulate her. Rose isn't harsh with her, she just lets her know that she's got her own life. I had to do the same thing with my mother. Everyone does.
When the Doctor tries to keep her safe, she refuses to accept it. Always.
Even if it means pilfering the psychic paper.
I love that she kisses the psychic paper before swiping it. Hee!
She's very impressed with Mickey. He grew quite a bit over the two series.
She also looks very proud of him. She always knew he was capable of better, something she felt for a lot of people. She always felt others deserved the best life can offer.
Nobody stands up to a Dalek like Rose.
Rose: If we get out of this alive, I am so shagging the Doctor until he regenerates. Well. Maybe until he almost regenerates. I kind of like this model.
Dalek, please.
Leaving isn't an option for her.
And when she tells him this, she's not tearful or hysterical. She's calm and she knows what she wants.
Okay, I'm subjecting you guys to these only because I ended up crying over these damn scenes again. And since that happened, I had to cap my favorite moments.
Rose asks if he's alone. Not because she wants him to be, or is worried about being replaced. It's because she's worried he's alone. She knows he shouldn't be. She may have had moments of petty jealousy here and there, but ultimately, all she wants is for him to be happy. That is true love. Oh, and I am utterly disgusted by the fact that Billie Piper manages to remain so pretty while crying her eyes out. So not fair. I demand she have puffiness and a runny nose.
I loved Rose a lot and I've missed her terribly this year. It hasn't stopped me from giving Martha a chance, but I just haven't been able to connect with her. As much as I'd like to see Rose come back, I have very little faith we will ever see her again. There's nothing I'd love more than to be proven wrong though.
I know this isn't a hugely insightful post and some of the caps are complete crap, but I felt the urge to do this for myself, if nothing else. The next one I do will focus on S1. Yes, I realize that is bass-ackwards. Like I said, the main computer has decided to take a dirt nap. Once that's fixed, I'll get on it.
Want the pretties without all my blabbering? Help yourself. :)
