#LittleWomen: Your soul is shaped by the ones you love, and the ones you lost, that haunting beauty of time both cruel and kind, and yet, when infinity is woven together within its celestial iridescence, life transcends into something unforgettable, something… worth living.

Peter Capaldi is the personification of my #DoctorWho, an elysian contradiction of fire and fragility, facing his end with the desperate hope that just maybe, kindness is enough, and those final words of an idiot with a box will echo through me forevermore, Doctor… I let you go.

The echo of the last remains, a whisper carried through time, as long as there are stars, the Doctor will be there, running, saving, believing. The wonder of Jodie Whittaker carries the legacy of #DoctorWho oh, so beautifully... and just once, for a moment in time, kindness wins.

The Doctor stumbles towards the console, fire in his eyes one last time, he grins, wild and wonderful, the universe reflected within his eyes. 'Doctor… I let you go.' The Doctor is gone, the golden light unweaving him from the inside out, #DoctorWho has a new Doctor, a new tale.

'Laugh hard, run fast, be kind.' The final monologue from Peter Capaldi is not only the farewell of a Doctor, but the echo of every soul he has been, life touched, and hand held. The simplest words within #DoctorWho, and yet the most powerful… legacy, not built on war, but love.

Then there is Bill, no longer steel, but standing before him, smiling as she always did. Whether she is real, or simply the memory of a friend who was too good for the world, does not matter, she is here, reminding him of the most important truth of #DoctorWho, he is never alone.

That stillness of understanding is where the battle of #DoctorWho truly ends. The First Doctor witnesses a future shaped by pain, yet he stands for hope despite that, leading them both to acceptance. One walks into his fate, and Twelve follows… at peace with what must come next.

The final wonder of Steven Moffat, the last act of #DoctorWho a tragedy woven across time, where ghosts of the past walk again. The Doctor, broken, meets his ghost, the First Doctor, staring at his own mortality with the same reticence with that old man kindness of David Bradley.

The Doctor has spent his lives believing in people, their capacity to be more, and at the very edge of himself, he is gifted proof, humanity, in its purest form, chooses kindness, for no reason at all. The faith #DoctorWho held in the universe is restored… just enough to let go.

The soul of #DoctorWho is Peter Capaldi, the Doctor at his most tender, his most human. The fire still flickers within him, but dims with that mountainous weight of infinite years. The Doctor has fought, he has lost, he has saved as many as he could, and now… he is simply tired.

If The Doctor Falls was tragedy, Twice Upon a Time is its lament, the last whisper of a song as silence takes hold. There is no grand #DoctorWho villain, no battle… only time, and the inevitability of moving forwards, and as the clock strikes Thirteen, the Doctors breathe weary.

Twice Upon a Time, the poetry of an ending… time holds its breath, the Doctor stands at his end, but not alone, beside the man he used to be, separated by infinity, crossing time in the quiet of refusal. #DoctorWho is about change, but the First and Twelfth are afraid to let go.

And then, the tragedy of Missy, the ethereal Michelle Gomez, laughing, crying, both at peace and in agony, for once in #DoctorWho, does the right thing, and the Doctor, falling beneath his convictions, will never know… but there is one final lesson to learn, and he is not alone.

And perhaps, the most eviscerating moment of #DoctorWho… the tale of the Doctor is at its end, and yet, something beautiful lingers in the decimation, falling from an unfeeling mask, reaching out across planes, a single tear from Bill, lighting the spark of the idiot with a box.

There is an unbearable weight to this Doctor from Peter Capaldi… he is tired, not only from battle and exhaustless loss, but the unrelenting cruelty of time itself. His melancholy burns different in this trinity of #DoctorWho, not a fire of fury, but the last embers of defiance.

The beating heart within that iridescent spark of #DoctorWho, MY Doctor, the intoxicating Peter Capaldi. The Doctor has never been more powerful, and never more afraid. The fight against the inevitable awaits, and he knows, time forever wins, unless, just once, kindness wins too.

The Doctor fights because it's right, because it's decent, and above all, it's kind, it's just that, just kind, and when the stars fade, and his song ends… he becomes the tale. This is not only the finest three episodes of television history, but the thesis of #DoctorWho itself.

This is #DoctorWho at its most profound, the incessance of time fuelling every frame, he cannot save every soul, Bill has already been lost, yet in the face of the ghost of hope, the Doctor stands… for Bill, for Missy, for the possibility that just once, the universe thanks him.

If World Enough and Time was the horror of #DoctorWho, The Doctor Falls is its tragedy, an aching endeavor to hold hope as the universe pulls it away. Walking across the battlefield of a world that no longer sees her as human, Bill, the best friend of the Doctor… now a Cyberman.

The laugh of the Master echoes through time, Missy stands at the precipice of redemption, and the Doctor fights a battle already lost. A thousand years of feats wielding only kindness and a screwdriver, running, saving… yet victory is lost in the dark of this #DoctorWho trinity.

The effervescent Pearl Mackie haunts in this trinity of #DoctorWho. Bill Potts, heart forward, is shot through the chest… the kindness she built her life upon is forged into a nightmare of steel, and yet she feels, she hopes, a single tear falls, an echo of humanity in the cold.

World Enough and Time is #DoctorWho at its most macabre… time dilates, a ship, stretched across eternity, becomes a slow, lingering nightmare. The Doctor sends his best friend to show the universe the beauty within kindness, and in return, the universe takes everything from her.
