This was really good and I can't wait to read more. Rose is admittedly a bit OTT in this, but then, isn't she always? I always felt so bad for Handy in JE when, just after kissing him, she ran after the dematerializing TARDIS. I knew it could only really go downhill from there. I mean, yes, Handy looks like the Doctor, but he isn't -- he's some weird amalgam of the Doctor, Donna, and his own self. I hate stories that forget about that aspect of himself and I am glad that you didn't shy away from the inherent inner struggle that poor guy must have. I can only imagine that would make his relationships really difficult -- especially if Rose is expecting some sort of carbon-copy of the Doctor to grow old with (which honestly, that also assumes he hasn't had any emotional growth since she left, but with the exception of the weird reset-ness of the finales, he has changed -- which is honestly part of why I think he dropped her off in the alt_verse for no apparent reason in the first place: he'd moved on.).
Yes, she really was OTT, and thoughtless and selfish in the way she behaved during the S4 finale. Whinging on at Ten when she got him shot by a Dalek and he almost regenerated, and then bitching about having to look after Handy (not that I think Ten did the right thing there. In fact, I doubt anyone could convince me he did!)
Anyway, I can't wait to read the next part! You have me very intrigued!
Thanks!
P.S. Oh, and I love the idea of his semi-regeneration. Now I keep trying to imagine him with darker hair and green eyes (which must be a really pretty combination -- not that DT isn't already pretty anyway...).
I'd love to see David with green contacts and darker hair... Yum!
