Oh god, I know. I mean, I did love what they did with Mickey in the end, and he got fairly badass and married fucking Martha Jones, thus creating the most adorable couple in the world, but still — I was wary of Moffat for taking that route, and he didn't, and I was so glad. Rory and his snark and his confidence issues and his facing down the things he's most afraid of because he has to. Just. ;o;

Although —

I would want to see Rory naked with a Dalek.

... right, so where did that come from? :D
