"It’s always a bloody forest with her-why is it always a forest?"

kind of perfect summary of their lives

loved the fic :]

[ladymercury_10]

Heeee, thank you! Glad you liked it. :)

I love you for this! What a fantastic early birthday present! I love that they're fleeing from giant angry elder gods. And your descriptions are vivid as always. River has to get home to teach in the morning, ha :). Thanks again for this; it made my day!

[ladymercury_10]

Yay! I'm so happy you liked it! :)

Hee hee. I love old married couple River-and-Doctor.

[ladymercury_10]

Thank you very much!

Beautiful sweetie! This made me smile and kinda feel sorry for him, even though he can easily find just as much trouble on his own!

Thank you for sharing this!

*HUGS*

[ladymercury_10]

Thank you! And haha, don't feel too sorry--The Doctor loves trouble! I think he just likes grumbling about it, too. :P

*hugs back*

I reall liked this, it's a very interesting take of the time they spent alone together. :) I wish the show would've given us something like this and explored River's relationship with the Doctor a bit more.

[ladymercury_10]

Thank you! I wish they had done, too. Maybe they still can? River was in the S7 preview!

Your icon is super cute, by the way. Where did you find it? :)

[openmicnights]

They probably can, but I think it isn't likely that they'll focus on the Doc's time alone with River, I don't know. I wish we'd have something like Pond Life with her as well - I just think she's a great character and she deserved more.

I got it at bonheurs :)

[ladymercury_10]

Agreed. I feel like they definitely should have given her more time since they talked her up so much and made her such an important character. To give her so much of a history with the Doctor and such an important role in his life and then make most of it happen off-screen was kind of disappointing.

Thanks! I will take a look at their icons! :)
