this sounds suspiciously like a Permanent Goodbye kinda deal, like Rose knows shes gonna die before he comes back or smth and HEY HUSSIE?? NUH UH
imo it’s being pretty broadly telegraphed that whatever John’s gonna do will wreck the quiet world this Rose and everyone else is living in, along with the local manifestations of its ships.
Neither of those was my read – my conclusion was that assuming he succeeds Earth C will just keep on keeping on outside canon, but John won’t be coming back.
listen. how about all of the above?
