I am enjoying this story so very much. It's very good!! I liked Rose's freak out about the guns. That bothered me too. But yes, Joan has a point, it probably is in his contract. Ooh... can't wait for the next chapter!!
Thank you! My apologies again for the long wait but I'm glad you enjoyed this chapter. I liked writing Rose's freak out about the guns too. It harkens back to Dalek really, how shocked she was to see him brandishing a weapon then and now to see him discussing it so casually.
Oh, this is lovely. I just started it tonight, and I cannot wait to read more. I really like how you've captured them here, especially Rose.
Also I rather like the twist with her being his wife. The first thing I thought was how is that going to work given he's going to have certain expectations going along with that role. I like how she has so cleverly avoided him so far.
Yes she's been quite canny about it so far hasn't she? But not for much longer I'm afraid! The next bit has been written for a long time now though so hopefully it doesn't disappoint ;)
Yes, I figured as much. She can only put him off for so long. I am definitely looking forward to seeing what happens and how it all works out for them. I will be impatiently waiting for the next chapter.
I really like the fact that you discussed the situation with the guns because I remember thinking how upset the real Doctor would have been with the entire practice. Well done.
About time eh? This whole chapter nearly got cut which is why it took me so long to get it posted. I honestly worried it might slow down the story but I like that it's not all smooth sailing for these two.
You know it's interesting, I remember Joan calling John out on it in the episodes and him basically admitting that he didn't agree with using guns ith kids. With Rose in such a close relationship with John it gave me such a great opportunity to explore that. It makes sense that he wouldn't tell her I think, for fear of upsetting her - much like the Doctor hates it when she sees the darker side of him.
I'm a Virgo, thus overly observant and very OCD about stuff like characterisation :P I'm really chuffed you think I've done such a good job with John though. I've worked hard on his voice in this so I'm pleased it shows.
