“Look to see me no more; and look that, for your own sake, you remember what has passed between us!"

Marley’s Ghost - A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

It was snowing, thick wet slushy flakes of it that would soon soak through his coat. The Doctor didn’t care. He wanted this to be it, the last time ever. He could hear bells ringing and ( Read more... )

SQUEE!

This is exactly what I need on a flu-ridden October day!

Sitting down to read right now!

I read about your sore throat. Hope you're feeling better soon. You'll be pleased to know that for once I've finished a story before posting it. Last chapter is with Wendy now. I'm so glad you're enjoying it.

OH WOW.

I love this already.

And I am looking forward to more!

Clarence is the angel from It's a Wonderful Life.

Well done! He's Clarence Oddbody - hence Ood Body.

Off now to hunt for virtual mince pies...

Lovely story so far. Is Clarence Oddbody the name of the angel from "It's a Wonderful Life"? I know he was called Clarence, but I don't remember a last name.

That's right. I didn't know about the Oddbody bit either until I checked it out on Wiki. First saw the movie on Xmas day last year, on a flight to New York.

Glad you like it so far.

“Tell her…tell her to ask me what happened to Jack.”

Yes! Oh my God, yes! I LOVE that that is what he picks.

This is a very promising beginning, and very well written. Can't wait for more. "A Christmas Carol" is one of my favorites as well, and I once wrote an adaptation for a different fandom, so reading this is an absolute treat.

Ohhhh! I cna;t wait! The character desrves happiness!

Couldn't agree with you more!

Thank you. One of your stories inspired me, in fact - the one where Nine gives Jack the TARDIS key on his first day. That made me realise what a terrible thing the Doctor did to him after POTW.

Which fandom was your version of CC for?
