The Doctor is always sneaking off without saying goodbye once an adventure is wrapped up.

But it was exactly like that when he lied to Donna and said he was going to park the TARDIS properly before coming in for dinner. Had she not called him back he was going to leave without a word.

That's exactly what I mean by 'not like that'

How is it not like that? What was different?

When the doctor has done an irish exit in the past it feels good spirited, for the good of the others or for lighthearted mischief. This felt more sneaky.

But you aren't saying why or how it felt more sneaky, just that it is.

I love that you're asking for evidence for feelings. It's ok if you disagree, I'm saying my opinion, you're allowed a different one.

[–] TheDoctorDonna@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Not evidence , logic and reasoning. You don't feel that way for no reason...

What you're saying is, when a white dude does it it's charming, a coloured man doing the same is sneaky. Got it.

What a weird and extreme leap.
