Love that she loved him as a man, where I think Martha loved the god-like figure. Never really thought about it like that, but I can see that. I adore them for all kinds of reasons. They are one of the few exceptions to my apathetic shipper rule.
I think the fact that no one was in love with anyone really put Donna and the Doctor on even ground, yeah. There were no girls in fireplaces or school nurses to worry about, just two BFFs on an intergalactic roadtrip. Awesome. Plus in general I like find friendships more interesting than relationships. Have you seen the deleted scene from the Doctor's Daughter? Such adorable Donna/Doctor BFFness, I wish they'd kept it. I'm such a sucker for BFF-bonding.
JOURNEY'S END WAS TRAGIC. Augh. I cried for Donna! I never cry for anyone on TV! D:
