NoEnd House
Let me start by saying that Peter Terry was addicted to heroin.
We were friends in college and continued to be after I graduated. Notice that I said “I”. He dropped out after two years of barely cutting it. After I moved out of the dorms and into a small apartment, I didn’t see Peter as much. We would talk online every now and then (AIM was king in pre-Facebook years). There was a period where he wasn’t online for about five weeks straight. I wasn’t worried. He was a pretty notorious flake and drug addict, so I assumed he just stopped caring. Then one night I saw him log on. Before I could initiate a conversation, he sent me a message.
“David, man, we need to talk.”
That was when he told me about the NoEnd House. It got that name because no one had ever reached the final exit. The rules were pretty simple and cliche: reach the final room of the building and you win $500. There were nine rooms in all. The house was located outside the city, roughly four miles from my house. Apparently Peter had tried and failed. He was a heroin and who-knows-what-the-fuck addict, so I figured the drugs got the best of him and he wigged out at a paper ghost or something. He told me it would be too much for anyone. That it was unnatural.
I didn’t believe him. I told him I would check it out the next night and no matter how hard he tried to convince me otherwise, $500 sounded too good to be true. I had to go. I set out the following night.
When I arrived, I immediately noticed something strange about the building. Have you ever seen or read something that shouldn’t be scary, but for some reason a chill crawls up your spine? I walked toward the building and the feeling of uneasiness only intensified as I opened the front door.

Looking through Tumblr, I’ve found a lot of hate directed towards almost all the companions, especially the New Who ones, so here’s my little ditty on why you should love all the New Who companions.
Rose Tyler: Now Rose is either the most hated or most loved companion it seems so let’s look at the reasons you should love her. First off, the Doctor loves her, which means she’s a pretty damn awesome person. She made the Doctor better, and that takes a pretty empathetic person to do so. She’s a person that does everything she does out of love. As for the criticisms that she’s not classy, educated or well dressed… well why should the Doctor care? He lives outside the boundaries of societal judgement and in many ways I feel like the way the Doctor takes on “Ordinary” people is his way of showing people that ordinary by our society’s standards should not make you feel nothing or worthless. The accusation that she is clingy and jealous… well honestly this is a man she’s in love with, if she didn’t feel any semblance of jealous I would question it. Her character’s meant to be REAL with includes flaws and all.. her flaws are what makes me love her, because it makes her so real and I rather a character that sometimes says something silly once in a while than a character that is a Mary Sue and just can’t be relatable, and the end, it’s the companion we should be able to relate too.
Mickey Smith: Mickey is one of those character’s that basically shows the viewer how the Doctor can impact someone for the better, even if said person may not even be the Doctor’s favorite person. Mickey did start off as the clingy butt-monkey of Doctor Who, but doesn’t that just really show you how much he’s grown as a character? He may not the flashy hero but think of all the small things he’s done. He protected Jackie from the Slitheen, and put his body between the Slitheen and the woman who just made his life hell for the last year. That says so much about his character and who he is as a person. He gave up not just traveling through space and time, but a universe he knows to take care of a gran that isn’t even really his. He LITERALLY gave up his whole universe because he feels responsibility to take care of Rickey’s gran. And then to reinvent himself as a badass… and then have the ability to walk away from Rose and close that chapter of his life… can we say BAMF?
Jack Harkness: Okay, his man is the definition of sass and bravery, despite everything he’s been through. After all the trauma of his childhood, the trauma of getting his memory erased, the trauma of his curse… he still manages to walk away making jokes and keeping a jolly spirit. A lesser person would have gone mad or bitter. The main complaint I hear about him is that he’s a whore and he’s not faithful. But we need to see his sexual exploits outside of our own society. He comes from the 51st century, where the rules of sexuality are completely different. Can you imagine someone from the 18th century doing the sexual practices of today? They would be disgusted… so times change, society changes, Jack doesn’t have the same mindset as the viewers.

(Tenth Doctor Edition)
(Ninth Doctor edition can be found HERE, Eleventh Doctor edition can be found HERE)
Martha Jones: I’m convinced Martha’s secretly related to Chuck Norris, cause this girl is a BAMF. Can you imagine what she had to go through as the Doctor’s companion? She had to go through the Doctor moping over Rose, always feeling like she’s second best, yet she always manages to prove how amazing she is, maybe not for the Doctor, but for herself. The whole stint with Family of Blood? How strong she must be as a person to put up all the racism all alone. She didn’t even have the Doctor… she was all by herself. And despite all this she keeps on going because she knows she’s doing good by staying with the Doctor, because that’s what she does, she helps people. The main complaint against her is that she’s was obviously in love the Doctor when he wasn’t interested. But seriously, have you ever been in love? You don’t choose who you fall in love with, you don’t choose when you end it. It just happens, even to the smartest and strongest people fall in love with people they know they shouldn’t be in love with. And her ability to walk away in the end without any bitterness? That is what I call a strong woman.
Donna Noble: The thing I love most about Donna is she doesn’t know how amazing she is. This is Doctor Who, telling it’s viewers “You have no idea how amazing you are.” This ordinary woman who stuck in a job she hates, being unappreciated and put down by her mom and in the end she’s the most important woman in all of creation, and you know why? It’s because where she came from had nothing to do with what she became. She was the woman who gave the Doctor friendship, she was the woman who was able to bonk him over the head and call him a dumbo because she was right when she said that the Doctor needed someone to stop him. She saw him for what he was, a broken man. She wasn’t dazzled by his brain or impressiveness, she saw through him and gave him what he needed. The main complaint I hear about Donna is that she’s annoying or that she’s bitchy. But you know what? I think the Doctor put it best, she’s shouting because everyone’s been ignoring her. Her sass is her self defense against hurt and unwarranted criticism and her feelings of failure. She put up all these walls to protect herself, and it’s the Doctor that helps her tear them down, who helps her realized that she is brilliant. You realize this especially after the Doctor takes her memories from her, when she goes back to her old self. It took the realization that she is amazing for her to stop being angry and shouting at the world. And gosh darn it, that woman will call people on their bullshit.
