30 days of who → favourite male companion / a character you want to know more about
I just needed to reblog this again.
Because jfc, you don’t understand how important this scene is to me.
Or maybe you do!
Because it has Jack openly showing his affection and admiration for two people of different gender in the exact same way, making no difference at all, and neither do Rose nor the Doctor. Zilch. No hesitating, no flinching, no comic relief.
I wish it could be like this more often.
That scene up there is doing everything right, end of story. And while Jack’s sexuality is often made out to be something to smile at, it’s also shown as very natural and Nine was just cool with that, no reason not to be.
Acceptance: You’re doing it right.
I remember reading that John very intentionally made sure to kiss Chris exactly like he kissed Billie, because he wanted it to be very clear that the male-male kiss was exactly the same as the female-male kiss, exactly as real as the female-male kiss, and that there was nothing humorous about the gay kiss as compared to the straight one.
This was actually the scene were really fell in love with Jack as a character, in part because of this.
I love Mickey and Jack
“We were partners.”
“In what way?”
“In every way.”
