Naughty Sammy (kids are so uninhibited, lol).

Lovin' this. Though you lied about the angst part!

[dakfinv]

Thank you! (There had to be a little angst, but I tried to keep it to a minimum.)

OMFG he's got the mind of a four-year-old and a distinctly post-pubertal libido! You wicked, wicked woman!

I think it's a little cruel of Gene to take him to the station without giving anyone any warning though - not for this Sam, but for post-recovery Sam, who is apart from anything else going to get completely flattened by Ray. There is going to be post-recovery Sam, right?

This is brilliant stuff; I thought little Sammy and Missus were both fantastic in SASG, and I'm very pleased to see them both back. I just hope Gene does a better job of understanding Sam than he did in a lot of that fic, though. *looks hopeful*

[dakfinv]

Gene certainly didn't think his plan all the way through, but I think he was struggling with a way to tell them the truth and decided show rather than tell would be easier.

(There may or may not be a post-recovery Sam...)

Thank you!

Awww, poor Sammy-Boy! You just can't leave him alone, can you?
This was great. More soon, please! :)

[dakfinv]

No. I can't, the poor boy. Too late to go back now, though!

Thank you!

“I’m goin’ to the station. I’m goin’ to the station. I’m goin’ to the staton. I’m goin’ to see p’licemen and p’lice women cos I’m goin’ to the station. I’m goin’ to the station,” Sam sang, grinning like a loon as he bounced up and down in the Cortina.

This just made me laugh. Perhaps because I have my young nephews visiting now so I can see the action and hear the rambling. :) But he still sees Test Card Girl and he remembers Joni (or at least the name). Oh, and calling Ray a poof!

Great going can't wait for more.

Thank you! (Sam's reaction to his going to the station, is similar to the one I had when I bought my tickets for the Doctor Who Exhibit...)

I love this idea. Very funny, although there's a layer of angtsy sadness underneath that renders it bittersweet. It's lovely that Gene looks after Sam (as it should be :)). And I love your version of the Missus.

I was a little disturbed by regressed Sam singing in the car, excited about going to the police station, but that's because I do that a lot when I get excited too. Maybe I should be worried...

[dakfinv]

Thank you! I think Gene would be the only one who could handle all of Sam's energy.
