Martha Jones! ‘Cause she’s awesome
Can do!
Martha Jones is us in a way none of the other modern-day companions have quite been. She’s a nerd! She references Harry Potter, her sister makes comments about her lack of social life, she’s ‘been watching too much TV’ as the Doctor says. She even has a blog! (The BBC website team made one for her, although I don’t think it’s there anymore.)
And Martha Jones saves the world with fandom twice! Firstly in The Shakespeare Code, where she saves the world with her love of Harry Potter. (asdfghjk I LOVE THIS GIRL). And then, later on- she becomes the Doctor’s fandom! She tells his story, spreads the word. The same thing we do every day, on a infinitely larger scale, but…she boosted the signal. She boosted it good.
She’s us. Which is why I love her so. She saved the world using nothing but love and her own two legs.
