Fantastic job fleshing out such a sketchily-drawn character and period in the Pond family's life. I've had a hard time deciding what to make of her, but you've managed to give a picture that's both sympathetic and disturbing and also quite real. I'm also rather enamored of this style of fic you've developed with all these wispy, dream-like snatches of moments that build up a picture of everything that's going on very economically. It's like impressionism or something : )

Also, Mels always getting to be the TARDIS when they play dolls! Lol.

Me too. Did not expect Mels. And yay for sympathetic and disturbing!

Oh, I like that! Tbh, I'm always reallyclose to adding an A/N apologising for the lack of, well, actual prose, but then I tell myself it's a style. /cool story

The TARDIS is clearly the best one! (Also it occasionally lands on the Doctor. Purely by accident, of course.)

Have actually done that myself, on several occasions. But would tell you (and myself, if I had any sense) that that's silly and it's a perfectly good way of writing and people can just deal with it : )

Ha! Of course.

So true. Deal with it, or don't read. ;)

You can tell me, and I'll tell you, okay?

At first I was a little let down and felt like it was lightweight and didn't give as much time to some things as I wanted it to (especially Amy and Rory getting resolution on loosing their baby), even if I was ultimately satisfied with the whole. But starting to dig through it a bit . . . yeah, it's amazing <3
