The biggest thing for me out of the season finale was the confirmation of the Doctor’s feelings for River.
There has been a lot of debates and arguments - how married are they really? How does he really feel about her? What is her role in his life? How much does she influence him? But in this moment, when he turned to her and told her he’s always seen her and listened to her, but did not acknowlege because it hurt him too much, you see.
You see how he’s hung on to her, despite his own denial. You see how he’s taken her advice to heart, even when he pretends he couldn’t hear. You see how he looks at her and touches her. You see how he kisses her, like he’s longed for her for eons.
She is his River, his beloved wife, his sweetie. He held on to her until the very end of her timeline, and will keep holding on to her until the end of his.
So beautiful!
(although at least one news sites is already polling on who the next love interest for the Doctor should be. So he may not hold on to her for the rest of his life if those sources are true.)
sooooo
what was the love triangle ????
It was:
Clara who confesses she fell in love with the Doctor in the TNOTD prequel —> The Doctor (“smitten” with Clara, married to River) <— River
The unusual part was that River is in the Library and not alive before or after it as everyone thought before the finale.
And as Moffat said, it’s resolved. The Doctor showed he’s in love with River.
Clara is his buddy, not his love interest.
#honest to god #he got steven fucking wonder to sing for her on her bday #in 1814 #on thames #like this is his idea of a bday gift for his wife #I CAN’T#?!?!!? #no nope he does not love her #yeah #she forced him to do that :) :) :) (via iceinherheart-kissonherlips)

Also, it made me think, if no living creature can speak falsely or fail to answer, why was the Doctor able to “fail to answer?” Is he not living?
He probably would have had to answer eventually but River spared him from having to do it. Bigger question: why wasn’t the…
You make a lot of sense there. They should be there until the end, but weren’t. In fact, the true irony is that the weapon they created (MELODY POND) was the one who spoke the name of the Doctor. Or does it not count as “speaking” since she said it and no one (unlinked to her) could hear it, i.e. if a tree falls in the forest…
It must count because it worked. :) And you’re right, that’s great irony! Like Moffat said in the TWORS commentary about their plan (Melody Pond) going utterly wrong!
“You should have faded by now.”
