What a sweet glimpse! I loved the tossed-off Rosie the Riveter comment.

Heh, maybe they're "grow up" to form UNIT....

Thank you very much! And that would be super neat if the Ponds had something to do with UNIT, wouldn't it? :)

Somewhere, there has got to be fic of Amy and Jo Grant bonding over fashion and lockpicks. Because the universe would be incomplete without such a thing.

I like this story, and I like the concept behind it. Amy would make such an awesome detective.

Thank you very much! such-heights is responsible for coming up with the idea, and it was a lot of fun to run with it! :P

If there is not, you could always write it and complete the universe! :D

I probably will, eventually. At the moment, though, I'm just ridiculously tired. So, maybe sometime in the spring . . . not that I'll be getting enough sleep then, either . . . ah, well. Like I said, eventually.

[ladymercury_10]

Tired is no good. I hope you can get more sleep soon!

[lyricwrites]

Thanks! The thing is, though, I'm going to have twins some time in February, so I'm fixing to go from limited sleep to less sleep. After that, it'll get better, but for a little while . . . (Don't get me wrong, I'm as excited as anything to be having babies. It's just that, realistically, I know I'm going to feel like a cartoon run over with a steam roller.)

I'm hoping to develop a Zen-like approach to tiredness, accepting it as it comes and thus robbing it of its power. I suspect, however, that the next few months are going to involve occasionally staring blankly at doorknobs and wondering how they work.

Ahhh, good luck with your sleep Zen, then! That definitely sounds intense. And I remembered the babies, but I didn't realize they were due so soon, best wishes and congratulations and such! :)
