Leaving London by fin - Thasmin edition

Summary:

I can't animate so this is the closest I can get to making an animatic to this song

This isn't an actual fic of any kind, I just took the lyrics to the song and put in what I imagine would be animated alongside them if this was an animatic

Notes:

This isn't the most finished or polished thing, I just wanted to put my ideas down and share them w people who might enjoy them. I may end up editing this in the future, but for now this is the general gist of it!

Work Text:

This world that we're tied to
     The doctor is making a point, she turns to gesture to the surroundings

Wasn't meant to fight you
     We see a scene that’s divided by a diagonal line, on one side we see the countryside around where they met, on the other we see a beautiful alien landscape, very unlike earth but gorgeous and safe

Happy thoughts and happy hearts
     The doctor laughing at something

Somewhere deep inside you
     Yaz watching her, a slight grin on her face, before she starts to laugh as well

Keep the window open
     The fam helping the doc at the end of ep 1

But be careful at the edge
     Them all disappearing from the room

Find the second star to the right
     Appearing in the middle of space

And get lost inside your head
     The doc reaching for the fam, trying to get to them, to help them

Ooh ooh
     Camera spins we’re now standing in front of the tardis, with yaz facing it and 13 with her back to it, panning past yaz to face the doctor

Fly away with me
     13 with her arm stretched out, beckoning yaz to come join her

Ooh ooh
     Camera pans around the tardis

See stars upon the sea
     Camera comes to rest in front of the open door of the tardis, 13 and the fam looking out at space (like in rosa when she shows them the asteroid yknow)

I have a homeland of lost people
     13 looking wistfully at a photo album of the other companions, before putting it aside and walking to the door

And we live inside a tree
     13 flinging the door wide open and showing the fam the tardis, beckoning them inside

Ooh ooh
     Graham and ryan walk in, yaz standing there a beat longer

Will you come with me, Wendy?
     Yaz slowly grinning, how could she refuse (end of arachnids in the uk), and joining the others in the tardis
[some scene or montage of their adventures at the beginning]

It's easy to get an empty heart
     They're fighting something, probably a dalek, or maybe it’s just off camera but basically something’s going on that is a danger to them or to others

When you're expected to grow up
     The doctor has to make a hard choice, she puts herself in front of everyone, protecting them

But in this magic place of mine
     They all enter the tardis, breathless from running but grinning

Adventure is enough
     The doc puts her hand on the lever, at enough she pulls the lever with a grin

To keep me young forever
     They’re doing something as a group, maybe leaving the tardis to head out on an adventure, maybe it’s a continuation of the pulling of the lever or smth, at one or more times through the scene it shifts so that everyone but the doc looks a bit older and has changed clothes, all while doing the same thing so it’s like a smooth demonstration of the passage of time

No need to worry about a thing
     The doc hiding what’s going on w gallifrey, putting on a brave face

I'll protect you with this dagger
     13 standing between yaz (and the fam) and some danger that’s off screen, sonic in hand

And together we will sing
     Yaz steps up, they face the danger side by side

Ooh ooh
     Zoom in on their hands, 13 grabs yaz’s hand, as we zoom out they’re in the tardis now

Fly away with me
     They pull the lever together

Ooh ooh
     They get separated while fighting the cybermen

See stars upon the sea
     Seeing gallifrey for the first time (yaz tryna save her!!)

I have a homeland of lost people
     They get separated after timeless children

And we live inside a tree
     Yaz in the other tardis, working to find the doc

Ooh ooh
     Reunited, yaz pushing 13 away

Will you come with me, Wendy?
     Ryan and graham leaving, the doc looking at yaz, seeing if she’s leaving too
     [montage of yaz trying to find her? Of them both trying to get to each other? Some sort of something to fill that time..]

I've got a house for you, Wendy
     The doctor’s pleading

If you are taken from the sky
     Cut to the doctor fighting to get to her

All you have to do is believe
     Now we’re at survivors of the flux, yaz looking at the hologram

Then your spirit starts to fly
     Yaz taking control during survivors of the flux, doctorification arc

The second you doubt you can
     Yaz on her own during survivors of the flux, shes crouched on the floor, overwhelmed, she looks up and we zoom into her eye where we see the reflection of the next scene (basically she’s remembering that and shes terrified she’ll never see the doc again)

You'll be stuck upon the ground
     Looking at her when they get separated in village of the angels, 13 reaching out to her desperately

But if you take my hand
     13 with her hand outstretched, now somewhere else (basically same pose but now they’re not in danger, 13s just desperately pleading yaz not to leave her basically)

We'll be soaring through the clouds
     Yaz hesitates, looking at her, then grins takes it

Ooh ooh
     The doctor pulls her into the tardis and they disappear from view

Fly away with me (fly away with me)
     We’re getting the reunions - first yaz pushing the doc in revolution of the daleks

Ooh ooh
     Them hugging in survivors of the flux

See stars upon the sea (woah-oh)
     “I’m not a bad date am i?” or at least, that scene

I have a homeland of lost people
     “We’re just a crew”

And we live inside a tree
     When ace and tegan and kate all are in the tardis with them

Ooh ooh
     Yaz flying the tardis/saving the doc?

Will you come with me, Wendy?
     13 taking yaz’s hand in legend of the sea devils

(Will you come with me, Wendy?)
     Them sitting on the shore in legend of the sea devils

Oh oh oh oh
     [This is the end]
     Yaz carrying the doc
     Them looking at 13s glowing hand, the doc trying to comfort her
     Them sitting on top of the tardis, and if you look closely their hands are inching closer to each other

Will you come with me, Wendy?
     Back to the start, with the doctor reaching out to yaz, inviting her in
