Doctor Who: What Your Favourite Companion Says About You

1. Rory Williams

The Companion: What is there to be said about the boy who waited. He stood beside a box dressed like a Roman soldier for nearly two thousand years. (Sure, he'd changed into a sharp looking security guard uniform by 2010, but apparently he was still dressing as a Roman as recently as the 1940s. Did it honestly never occur to him to change into something less noticeable?) Not content with merely setting the bar impossibly high for boyfriends everywhere, he then went on to repeatedly prove himself to be trustworthy, loyal, and almost impossible not to like. Notable Achievement: Rory carries emergency medical supplies on his person. Honestly, given how life with the Doctor tends to go it's amazing that no other companion before him has thought to do this. What Liking Her Best Says About You: You have impeccable taste. You value kindness and reliability in others and strive to embody such qualities yourself. While you might not be able to stand vigil for your loved one for a couple millennia, you would be willing to wear the roman soldier outfit under certain circumstances. Disagree? Have a theory about a companion we didn't mention? Fee free to comment below!
