Fabulous. It would take another Doctor to fix what Ten had done. :)

8-) Thank you!

Interestingly enough, the other-Doctor thing didn't occur to me until I was about half way through writing the story. When I started, I was clear about the beginning and the end, but not the middle.

*loves story muchly* Wonderful use of the Fifth Doctor in there, and I love Donna's slow, constant efforts to figure out what happened, and yay! Love the ending, of course. *hugs Wilf too*

Thank you!

and I love Donna's slow, constant efforts to figure out what happened
Yeah, that was one of the key parts of the story: that stubborn, tenacious Donna wouldn't take amnesia lying down. 8-)

Hahaha, I'm totally going and posting mine, now! Or at least I will as soon as I can decide on a title. Which I may never do. But yay Finish-a-thon!!!

This was a fantastic fic. I really enjoyed Donna's determination to dig to the heart of her problem and fix it herself. I also loved the interaction between Donna and Five.

Thanks for writing. ^_^

Thank you!
When I started writing the story, I had no idea that Five was going to turn up! But he did, and it was good. 8-)

Oh, I think this turned out well! Good Donna, great Five, and generally a clever fixit idea. I liked the dreams a lot, too.

Poor Five, though, I feel for him, because that must have been an awful thing for him to have to experience, even if he did forget it afterward.

I do wonder just a little where Tegan was... Shouldn't she have been around somewhere? Not that I blame you for not including her, as I think she would have just been a distraction.

Thank you! The dreams were fun to write. Part of my motivation in writing all the dreams was that many Donna-fixit stories mention strange dreams, but don't actually tell us what the dreams were.

I'm glad you think Five worked, especially since I had no idea when I started writing this, that Five would turn up! But it occurred to me that "what if, when Donna starts looking for the Doctor, that she finds a different Doctor?"

Yes. (hugs Five)

Set between "Time Flight" and "Arc of Infinity"; Tegan wasn't on board the TARDIS. Big Finish actually took advantage of this teeny-tiny gap to set a whole lot of adventures with just Five and Nyssa.

Aha! That makes sense. :)
