to witness the remains of love exhumed

She spends her life counting down.

She doesn’t remember when she starts - maybe at some infinitely large number only she, and perhaps the Doctor, could comprehend. Maybe each new life, each new face, each regeneration is a restart. Resets the counter, but she never resets it such a way that she doesn’t count ( Read more... )

GAH!!!! This is so why my heart is breaking!
Everything is going to change after Saturday. :-(

Oh, and I totally, utterly love this: “Strays she calls them. But not you.”

Oh yes.

I don't know what's going to happen Saturday. But Moff better not break them! This is too great a love story (even if it's not exactly a love story) to get ruined just for the sake of a cheap shock or twist.

(Mumbles irritably.)

I wholeheartedly agree so so much! But I know he's going to do it. He's a mean, cruel sonofabitch! It is the strangest but most profound love story I have ever seen and I thank god for fic because if he does ruin it, this will be my last sanctuary!

Oh tears :'( That was beautiful. A perfect ode to the entire thing that makes them, them and the TARDIS too ♥

Oh! The picture of River in the swing under the console! Why didn’t I ever think of that? I love that.

“because the TARDIS’ heart glows much warmer when he is near."

Oh, that’s sweet.

“He clambers down the stairs like an over-active child - as loudly as possible - and her smile is in full bloom”

Yup, that’s 11 all over. I so love him. He simply radiates such joy. I can see why Matt Smith says he not only likes playing the Doctor, he likes the Doctor.

“he looks up at her with an expression that could not be labelled as anything but adorable.”

Yup. You write him so well ( ... )

I really love your writing - it's always spot on. Let's hope that Moffat gives us something good on Saturday so that you have plenty of fuel for the imagination.
