Hee, you remixed two of my fics! And in Torchwood too, I wasn't expecting to get remixed in that fandom. Both of them are awesome in such very different ways.

[beatrice_otter]

You're welcome!

Oh, this is just a lovely fic.

I love the simplicity of your language in this, which hides a lovely complex characterization of Jack and his view of both the Doctor and Rose, his work with Torchwood, and his immortality.

I enjoyed reading it quite a lot. Thank you for writing this.

[beatrice_otter]

Thank you! I enjoyed writing it.

Stupidly, I've never even considered these question for Jack and the Doctor. It kind of breaks my heart a little, all that time that Jack has to suffer through, all the problems that probably grow bigger in his mind as every year passes.

[beatrice_otter]

Yeah. I really don't think immortality is a good thing. Particularly not for someone leading the kind of life Jack Harkness does. Thanks!

That's really sad, all the things that Jack wants to remember and forgets and all the things he wants to forget but remembers.

Thank you!
