Tilting TARDIS Cowl for Emily
Pattern: Tilting Tardis Cowl by Marilyn Phillippi
Yarn: Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Sock Solid in Cookie’s Deep Dark Secret
Very subtle homage. Pretty, too.
This is the prettiest TARDIS themed knit project I’ve ever seen.
I’m not usually a steampunk cosplay fan, but I’ll make an exception here.
this is some for serious costuming.

(For like, a second, I thought about the one that had Rory and said “Save Rory Pond” but then I thought better of it. I got it from this lovely person when I was at the Degenerate Craft Fair.)
“Yes, better than Rose’s exit. Does it really count, when it’s more of a shift to Freema Agyeman appearing semi-regularly rather than outright leaving the series? Yes. It’s our rules.
Like the scene at the end of The God Complex, this is an unusual instance of the Doctor and his companion parting as friends, even after the companion has gone through hell because of travelling with the Doctor.
Unacknowledged by a world that has happily forgotten Martha’s struggles in a year that never was, her trials at the hands of the Master seem to bring her to a tipping point, whereby she finally musters the gumption to say goodbye to the Doctor. At first, she suggests that she has to stay at home for her family, who are among the few people in the world who still remember the torment they suffered in the previous year.
What really elevates the scene, and Martha as a character, is how she comes back into the TARDIS, after giving that perfectly valid reason, to tell the truth instead. Having harboured an unrequited love for the Doctor all this time, it’s time for her to stop pining after him and get on with her life. You have to wonder, knowing the Doctor, would he have even have given her a second thought after that, if she didn’t come back?
There’s more mutual respect in their parting after she does that, than if she’d just went home. Martha Jones, and Agyeman’s portrayal, seem underappreciated, merely by the dint of her time being book-ended by Rose and Donna. And yet she proves the strongest of the Tenth Doctor’s companions when it’s time to go, and the only one who truly leaves with her head held high.”
Martha Jones is awesome.
