You would never expect all but forgotten early 80s picture book K9 and the Zeta Rescue to feature the Time Lords with these radical, surreal, larger than life redesigns but I kind of vibe with them, there’s an experimental 60s animation feel to them that I really like

I love the 6th Doctor & Peri’s relationship so much, the way they see past the outer fronts that others judge them for and care so deeply for everything the other person is, their bickering becoming just their way of showing that… they make me insane sometimes
