#Doctor still belives that he could save his best friend #he could fix him #he still thinks that The Master can be someone very brilliant to go out and see the stars together #but his face #Doctor’s face… #the one he covers it with his hand #that’s it #that’s the moment he gives up #then he shrugs #he shrugs because he sees there’s no way to change his friend back #then he gives up #he’s defeated #his friend won #he’s seen that all his positive thoughts and ‘trying to keep his friend alive’ is in wein #so he says ‘you win’ #yet i dont think he’s willing to kill ‘her’ #he checks the control thingy before this scene #i think he wanted to check if there’s a way to get rid of the Master without killing her #murder is against his basic programming you know #even if it’s his arch enemy who’s standing in front of him
#and Dear Peter Capaldi #your A C T I N G sir #you are a treasure to this world
