I’m having a bit of a Doctor Who themed day. I remembered this was sitting on my hard drive and thought I may as well post it.

Lovely. My only regret about the end of Rose's tenure was that Sarah would never get the chance to visit with her after, to have the cameraderie with someone who KNOWS...I hope she meets with some of the others who are still present in the 21st century on Earth.

Thank you for this piece.

[meddow]

Same here. I really hope she gets to meet Martha or Donna or both, and gets to remain friends this time.

Thank you.

That's beautiful and so, so Sarah Jane.

[meddow]

Thank you!

noooooooooooooo, you cant retire you daft bitch!

[meddow]

Wouldn't she have too? Having a full time job by day and running a freelance alien rescue and recovery service by night just seems a bit too much for one person (particularly when Luke is added into the mix).

yeah i suppose :(

Oh, that's so very, very Sarah Jane... ::loves::

[meddow]

Thank you :D

I was really disappointed, for many reasons, when Rose was trapped in the parallel universe, because I'd really wanted to explore Sarah Jane and Rose's tentative friendship in a post-Doctor setting and to see what the rest of fandom had to say about it. So thank you for writing this! It seems very fitting for the character and a lovely tribute to Rose.

Thank you! It's great to know you like it.

It is a real shame fanfic writers never really get to explore the Sarah-Rose friendship except for with parallel Sarah. Though I do like reading all different ideas of what alt!Sarah would be like.
