O. M. G.! THIS CHAPTER IS SO UTTERLY BRILLIANT!!!!!
I ran out of time to read it last night so I was almost late for work this morning since I started reading it and it was so good I got sucked in - sadly I had to leave for work before I finished so I spent the day anxiously waiting to read the rest. And, before you ask, yes it was worth the wait (Although the wait killed me).
There is so much that is wonderful about this chapter that I don't even know where to begin.
First of all, MATT figuring out a way to break the triangulated signal was just brilliant. Four Time Lords (and Bad Wolf) on the case and it's the person who's fully human that figures it out. The Doctor would love that!
Also, it actually makes so much sense to me that a paradox will cancel out a paradox. Very clever plot resolutioning. YOU should be writing for the show...
Big, red buttons that should never, ever, ever be pushed, that was always what it came down to, wasn’t it? LOLOLOLOLOL I love this line. Such a great statement.
Can I just say, Brem was ALL KINDS OF AWESOME in that room with the Time Lords. I was practically cheering at "Brem Tyler is his father's son"!
I LOVE that the Doctor didn't realize that Brem had faked the moment - and I especially loved their discussion/teasing about that after. In particular, this: “when we get out of this, we’re going to have a conversation about how you thought I was actually going to kill you.” LOL How's the Doctor going to worm his way out of that one?
THIS is quite possibly one of the BEST plot twists ever!!!! A big, red button? Really? That’s what ended the Time War?”
“Welllllll.” The Doctor shrugged. “Yeah. What’d you expect?” LOLOLOLOLOL I absolutely LOVE the idea of this. Big, powerful time lords and Daleks, defeated by a BIG RED BUTTON!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Rose was spectacularly amazing in this chapter and I can't even begin to tell you how much I LOVE that she basically just waltzed in, took the diamond and left all while they gaped at her "wrongness". SO BRILLIANT!
The Master preventing the Doctor or any of his children from Regenerating was epically awesome! I didn't see that coming at all.
Brem being skeptical about his father's driving CRACKED ME UP! Especially since it earned him a reprimand with his full name! LOL!
I ADORE this description: the Master was standing at the doorway to the landing dock, looking for all the world like a bloody lost puppy, LOL and also, awwwwwww. The minute I read it I knew he'd be asked to come (Though I love that in the end it was Brem's choice. And I love that the Doctor got an earful about not giving choices. He SO needs to hear that. I LOVE that the master accepted the invitation and I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the way he interacts with them all. Master + Chaos family = MASSIVE WIN! (Although what the heck are they going to do with him now?) I LOVE the way you write the Master. The final line, in particular had me howling. SO. MUCH. WIN.
