THINGS MARTHA JONES IS NOT AND NEVER WAS:

  • “needy” (so needy she spent over a year with a guy who barely noticed her, amirite?)
  • “clingy” (so clingy she walked the earth alone for a year!)
  • “whiny” (so whiny the Doctor was able to ignore what was happening until she laid it out for him!)
  • “useless” (so useless she totally didn’t keep the Doctor alive for the entire season despite his best efforts)
  • “slutty” (hey fandom? fuck you btw)

THINGS MARTHA JONES IS AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN:

  • intelligent (“they’re not exactly air-tight — if the air was gonna be sucked out, it would’ve been already”)
  • brave (“we might die.” / “we might not.”)
  • compassionate (she offers to talk to Joan on the Doctor’s behalf)
  • resourceful (lightning rod at the last second?)
  • patient (who else would’ve put up with Ten in s3 lbr)
  • snarky (“and then I could get sectioned!”)
  • nerdy (BUSTS OUT “EXPELLIARMUS” IN A LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION, NEED I SAY MORE? one of us, one of us!)
  • gorgeous (this isn’t particularly important but it sure is true)
  • practically perfect in every way

Glad we’ve cleared that up!
