top five river/doctor moments

Can’t you read? - I actually have this scene on my iPhone. I watch it whenever I’m in a bad mood, because you can’t look at the Doctor’s face when he finds out that River Song is Melody Pond and human plus, and keep being in a bad mood. It’s against the laws of the universe. His face in this scene just really says it all. He is filled with joy. His reaction is so immediate and viscerally joyful. It’s just stunning and beautiful to watch. His giggle. His giggle. Oh god, it just gives me all the feelings. He goes through so much in that five minute scene it is ridiculous and it all culminates in that one joyful moment when he understands. She’s a Pond. She’s not human. And they’re for each other. It’s just… I don’t even think my words can do it justice really. It’s just gorgeous, and it fills my shipper heart with joy. And even - I’d like to think even if you don’t ship it - we all love the Doctor. And I don’t think anyone could begrudge him his joy in that moment. /I’m not tearing up thinking about it shut up
