      He’s actively trying not to be a brutal mother motherfucker most of the time.

      Spoiler for Doctor Who season 3

      For example, when he basically snaps in the Family of Blood he does things that would make Q weep before running away in fear.

        Spoilers season 5 ep 1 Doctor Who (new series to be specific)just in case it’s needed, couldn’t figure out the spoiler formatting, yeah old but I wouldn’t want to deprive anyone watching first time

        First Matt Smith episode he basically scares off the aliens by saying ‘you can figure out who I am, do you want to continue this?’ … And for some reason they run from the dude who never wants to touch a gun heh. To be fair he always tries talking until they leave him without peaceful options, which makes him an awesome hero.

            Ka Faraq Gatri was a better one.

            When the godsdamn Daleks call you ‘destroyer of worlds’ you got cred.

      Just depends on whose plot Armour is thickest.

      Of course we all know any battle between them would just turn into the stereotypical “two good guys fight because [reason] and now are teaming up to fight BBEG”

      Or the defiant would blow up, almost everyone escapes unharmed, and then the Defiant-A shows up next week like they totally had a second one already waiting.

        The Doctors got that industrial, absolutely ludicrous “Moffat” grade plot armor. That shit is utter nonsense, literally. No rule of nature can attach to it. It’s like Toonforce, but stupidier. I can’t even recount the feats, as they generally fall apart as you explain them, but the doctor has proven to have an outsized impact on the universe itself.

        Even “J.J.Abriaum,” the core substance of “mystery boxes,” is less dense and illogical, and that shit is banned in most trek canon.

        I think the whovians got this.
