I really like fics that focus on Amy and Rory in the years before Prisoner Zero, and that growth in their relationship. This was a lovely little ficlet, very sweet and full of longing. <3

I might do more, especially after this one.

Thank you. I wasn't sure any of that had come through at all; it hadn't felt like it when I was writing.

I love Rory and I love the push/pull he feels here because it's the unrequited love that you see in his face in the flashbacks with Mels. And it's sweet to know that that day will come for him.

Knowing that was what helped focus the push/pull dynamic you see in this.

This is very sweet. I really feel for Rory pre Amy's Choice especially; as it felt like we were getting Rose and Mickey all over again. (Though Rory started out stronger than Mickey did; and was never portrayed as part of the life Amy was leaving behind; not the same way Mickey was). But seeing the past times makes me feel for him even more.

It makes you just wanna give him a hug, doesn't it?

Aw, this is really lovely and terribly sad at the same time! Rory's heartache is almost palpable...

[morethanacandle]

Thank you so very much! I thought I'd been pounding it in too hard and it wouldn't feel right in any way.

[honeynoir]

Oh, it definitely felt right! It's very, very Rory!

That is such a relief to know; thank you!
