Just rereading that to quote it here made me cry again. kjndshzioifp;l,men jsfjopl;w3e,
Yeah, he has a past. Oh boy, does he have a past. Because, y'know, tragic past is kinda obligatory for AU New Who. At least it is with me. We'll get to that later. I wanted to make sure we had a mention of it before the end of this arc, though, because there's a mention earlier on of Rose wondering how old he might be and then touching on the whole force-grown Flesh thing (like Chip, the force-grown clone of New Earth). In her mind, Freckles just happened one day. He was tested at the factory, rejected due to the pressure issues, and then he wound up at the shop where Jackie bought him. He's childlike and curious. He's so very sweet. Her affection for him is initially based on this very shallow image, reflected by her choice of reading material for him. He looks like an adult, but he's just this big kid, right?
Dead wrong. It scares her beyond belief to know. Her angry freakout of everything that could happen to him, and it already has? Makes her feel helpless.
There's also the aspect of him having a past and therefore having secrets. They've never discussed anything serious, but she thought it was because he never had anything serious to discuss.
Also, HAND HOLDING. Finally. I am surprised they withheld this long.
Not much call for it with them just sitting around in his room, really.
