when doctor who is run by seventh doctor fans in ten years, "the curse of fenric" will be held up as the best doctor who evah the way "the caves of androzani" is now. except in ten years people will be actually right.

prof_pangaea: someone should write seven/river song fic
prof_pangaea: a lot.
lizbee: That sounds fair to me.
lizbee: What brought this revelation about?
prof_pangaea: um... remembering that river song exists
lizbee: *giggles*
lizbee: Fair enough.
prof_pangaea: i think it was more complicated
prof_pangaea: oh wait!
prof_pangaea: someone was mentioning a fic where the doctor meets river song and was traveling with an ace-like companion
prof_pangaea: and i was like, "let's cut out the middleman here"
prof_pangaea: i think i've discovered a sad fact about myself, which is that every prompt looks brilliant if it involves seven.
lizbee: Hmm. "The Doctor goes swing dancing." "Seven goes swing dancing."
lizbee: YOU'RE RIGHT!
prof_pangaea: it is just like when einstein discovered relativity.
lizbee: Yes, just like that.


ETA: from thefannishwaldo's liveblog of stephen moffat and julie gardner's panel at the san diego comicon:

Is River Song recognizing the DOCTOR or DT's incarnation[?]
SM: she has met the DT Doctor before, but that's not the only one she's met.

this is obviously support for my view. yes.
