New S4 pics... with Martha bonus! YAYZ!

She's got a ring on her finger which, understandably, folks are wondering if it means she's engaged/married. Possibly. As a woman could only ever get over someone by being suddenly married off. *insert massive eyeroll here*

Although - as my brain is full of crackspec as anyone who reads my Who posts probably knows at this point - I'm wondering if it might be a modified version of this ring....



I'm thinking a Master possession in S4 is all but an inevitability. It's not only an old skool thing he does, but he totally has no body now (as Jedi!Doctor burninated it).

I do have to admit, as long as she doesn't end up Truly Dead by the end of it, I think the idea of Master!Martha is kind of hot. However, that could just be me desirous to see (Not)Martha kick the Doctor's scrawny ass ("Second best", I'll show him "second best"), so I could be a little biased.

I realize what I'm saying is that I want my own fanfic (and apparently other people's as well) to come true, but still: Martha is NOT LIKE OTHER PEOPLE ANY MORE. They put her through a year designed to turn her into the Doctor, where she was forced to reject her own family despite her enormous love for them (the Doctor's Gallifrey history); risk life and limb repeatedly to save the world/universe/Doctor; and then experience firsthand the destruction of her people and her planet. AND THEN SETTLE DOWN WITH A NICE PEDIATRICIAN???? Oh, no no no no no.

PLEASE ENTER A POLYAMOROUS AND NON-PEDIATRICIAN-FLAVORED MARRIAGE WITH ME. <333333333

If she is in a relationship, then it must fail because of all these reasons, and she realizes the only place she belongs now is the Tardis. ESPECIALLY WHEN THE DOCTOR REALIZES THE SAME THING and finally takes responsibility for his part of their relationship.

Actually, she doesn't even belong on the TARDIS anymore—not in a permanent residence/lifestyle, I mean; she's certainly fit for a good long stint of travel there if she wants it—simply because the Doctor was an asswipe, and the Doctor changed her, and the Doctor is the Doctor, which means that he needs someone who's not just a comrade, but a companion. He's been at that pattern for 900 years (sez Nine; personally, going from Four's comments, I don't believe it for a second—it's been way longer). He's not going to be changing any time soon. He loved being with Romana like mad because she was at his level, on the Hero-Mojo scale, but she had to leave him for the same reason. Martha's in that league, now, and I can't see her being able to hand him his test-tubes, even on a timeshare basis where he occasionally hands her hers, forever.

So I guess the point I had buried in there somewhere is that the only place Martha belongs isn't the TARDIS. It's a TARDIS of her own.
