It's beautiful--we go back to the beginning with Ten as we come up on his last journey out.

And I really can hear him talking about playing the bassoon in my head. It's hilarious.

I'm beginning to really like that library. And how does Rose get all these fine men reading poetry to her? Lucky girl. :)

I love how this connects with "Post Match Analysis", and that it captures just how unsure she (and I) was of this new New Doctor.

*loves*

The perks of having an author who's into that kind of thing ;)

that it captures just how unsure she (and I) was of this new New Doctor.

I adore Ten, and I still remember, quite clearly, wondering how on *earth* anyone was going to be able to replace Nine (*sob* Nine!), and Eccleston. So...I might have used that memory a bit, here.

Awwww.... now, if this was a week later, I'd call it perfect Christmas fluff. It's wonderful!! I love it all, and even how they don't just jump back into their old relationship, but something new comes from it -- something that is still them.

Lovely!

I honestly don't know that I'd have written this story, had I had another week to come up with something. This was very much born of the moment--and the looming deadline. But I'm very, very glad you like it!

Now, to contemplate writing a *third* story in this arc...

Awwww this made me quite happy. <3333 I always love the ones where he "explains" things to her, not condescendingly. This is really really lovely, and warm. I can just see it happening <3.
