something of the wolf, ten/rose (with flashes of nine), pg
She stood in the doorway, framed by the light of the hall, and his mind went back to that once upon a time day. His hearts skipped two beats, and he felt the ghost of fear flash across his consciousness. Rose may have not been in a red cape, but that Wolf had almost taken her from him. 851

What? That's it? Oh no, can't be! *looks completely shocked*
Okay, seriously ;) Very good glimpse, and well written; I felt like watching it from somewhere above, like I was close by and yet so far away.
I've been thinking about the topic myself... that there must be moreto it, since Rose has to be something special, since not even the Doctor could "survive" having the Time Vortex in his head - and it was for a much shorter period of time than Rose had it.

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed this. I really wish RTD and Co. had explored/explained the Rose as the Bad Wolf concept a bit more, too, especially since all of s1 led up to this HUGE REVEAL, and then we got very little insight into the whole situation and it was basically dropped but for a couple of very small references in s2 and s4.

This has the potential to be way more than what is currently written, but as a onesie, it's competely breathtaking. The shortness of the piece just happens to give the right amount of fear that the audience echoes with the Doctor, coyness from Rose's dialogue, and a very nice flow between the "old" and "new" Doctors.
And I love the allegory!
Although: The author has a good grasp of 19th-century Canadian social issues.” We have 19th century social issues? I guess it depends where in Canada you were living, though... :)

Thank you! I'm so glad you left this awesome comment; I really appreciate the longer, more insightful comments as to opposed the simple "I loved it!" or "Eh, this could be better." kinds.
The Tenderness of Wolves has a lot about prejudice and the racial segregation of Native Americans in it, as well as some biting commentary on small town politics. It's a REALLY GOOD BOOK, if you're looking for something riveting to read. :D

I love the new twist you put on BadWolf!Rose, and the last line is just pure gold :D
And I'd be ecstatic if there was a continuation *stares hopefully*

I think I may just have to write a sequel, considering how eager everyone is! X^D
