15th doctor giving the 14th a forehead kiss was such a precious moment for me. It was a great example of loving your younger self

[@sciencemama6801]

15 is amazing, I'm gonna love him. He's giddy and happy and not afraid to express emotion and affection, and he's well grounded. I guess that's the whole "we're doing rehab out of order". (But like what does that even mean? That because 14 goes off and has a quiet family life, he heals (rehabilitates) emotionally and that is why 15 is fine?

[@briansilva3344]

I mean, if the two of them are just around in the same universe, wouldn't other villains be targeting both of them. It's not like the Meta-Crisis Doctor where he's in his own parallel universe (which the TARDIS can't normally travel to) and he's seperate from the rest of the canon universe.

Not gonna lie, part of me would love a more down-to-earth, less adventure-y Slice of Life thing of the Doctor just living with Donna and her family, even if it's just in shorts or something. Doctor just gets to be the crazy uncle with all the weird random space & time trivia and stories.

Considering the 15th doctor came out of regeneration in a weird way, I wonder if he’ll go through the whole post regeneration thing.

[@selinawalsh9075]

I think the implication is that by the time of the Christmas Special, he's worked through all of that.

[@LN_1995]

It's implied he's from 14's future, if you go by him saying "I'm fine because you fixed yourself. We're Time Lords, we do rehab out of order"

[@lewiscalvert2577]

I think he’s meant to have travelled solo for a bit before we see him at Christmas so probably not

[@lucasaugusto1020]

He’s fine, the way that happened was that he skipped the trauma, the post regeneration thing, eventually 14th will regenerate into Ncuti’s

[@Blazieth]

I don't really necessarily agree with the people saying he's from 14's future. I think 14 was simply already a lot happier and at peace with himself than he'd been in hundreds of years by the time the Bi-generation happened. Just consider his "last words". I'm ready. It's time. Allons-y. He's happy. He's forgiven himself. He can't fix all his mistakes, but he's done what he can. 14 lives with the life lessons, 15 carries them forward, and is sort of... born out of them, in a way. Comes into the world carrying those life lessons and that self-forgiveness fresh in his mind. But yeah, I also don't think there's going to be much in the way of Post-Regeneration High. This wasn't a normal regeneration. He came out swinging and dancing, head on straight right out the gate. He's good. And besides, that sort of post-regeneration High isn't meant to be a Set In Stone fact that happens every time. We saw an example of that in the Time Lord General. No confusion, no erratic behavior, just a quick comment that she was "back to normal", her previous incarnation being her only time being a man. Then she was right back to business.

[@DatCartoonistGuy]

I love the horrifying detail of how Donna overthinking the question of Mrs. Bean makes her seem less Donna-like than the Donna Not-Thing. Also, the TARDIS walkway lifting up like that! 😂 Also, methinks the Toymaker was accidentally responsible for the bi-generation: by trying to regenerate the Doctor, he broke his own rules. He STARTED the fight with 14 as his opponent, so he had to FINISH the fight with 14 as his opponent, not 15. 15 was just the nail in his box.

[@stephsvids9812]

Omg yes

[@amadandearbhte4318]

Personally, I think it was more rules of play. It's kind of like kids saying: 'I said no laser pistols'. 'yeah but you didn't say no laser shot guns'. The toymaker said he would play with the next doctor, and he did. But he didn't say that 14 couldn't play or that 14 had to die.

[@DatCartoonistGuy]

@amadandearbhte4318 Sort of. I find it to be a bit more like the Toymaker had to fight the Doctor, but he didn't realize he was locked into the Doctor he was currently facing. He couldn't just kill that Doctor to get a "new one" because he'd be getting rid of his opponent and thus breaking the rules of his own game.

[@TheKingNight37]

​@@DatCartoonistGuyor it could be that the rules applied but the 15th doctor is just not the same person anymore so he has to still play with the doctor he was already and regeneration just was forced to take place

[@solaris9426]

@@TheKingNight37 It could also have something to do with the Doctor invoking superstition at the edge of the universe in the second episode. He himself admitted that doing that would let all manner of beasties in. I mean, that was how the Toymaker got in. Who's to say he didn't also open the way for myths and legends to come into reality, too.
