I am trying to figure out how I feel about The River Song Reveal
And I think the thing is - I'm probably not going to be writing fic about that aspect of her life, but as yet I don't feel like it invalidates or changes any part of her story as we knew it before. The bigger reveal for me is her partial Time Lady-ness, which I feel could make it slightly less amazing that she can pilot the TARDIS/speak Gallifreyan/whatever, but doesn't necessarily do so. I don't feel like being Melody Pond changes any of the things I like about her, or any of the fic I wanted to write about her (glad I only wrote that one River/Amy, hahaha), or any of the ways in which she is awesome. So I am okay with it, if not over the moon.
I also still don't think we know anywhere near the whole story about her, so I remain intrigued.
(Though - the Doctor's face when he found out! ADORABLE.)
Also, not only did I think in the middle of the ep that they had basically just made my Stormcage fic perfectly canonical, I was not the only one. :D :D
Actual post about the episode eventually, really.
