This is good, I like it. I love how they opened to each other, talking absolute rubbish (done that a time or two myself with friends - though not when tied to a bomb!).

Its amazing just how much you can find out about a person while they are talking. Well done.

Thanks so much!

That's so true! I tried to pull Rose out a bit in a situation unlike any she'd had with the Doctor - not entirely chill, but not running from danger either. And the Doctor, man, can he listen!

I'm glad you enjoyed... this was my first attempt at Nine - he's hard to get a hold on.

I'm the other way, I can write Nine, but Ten fics are so hard for me to write. Nine flows much easier for me.

Oh, very Nine-and-Rose! You write them very well together. I hope you'll write more for them, because you got their dynamic just right.

Thanks a lot! It was my first attempt at Nine period, so I'm glad I caught him a little bit - he's a slippery fellow ;)

I loved this. And I love how the Doctor could have saved them at any time, but chose instead to talk with Rose.

"Oh, we're talking now, are we?" He'd meant for it to come out bitingly harsh, but instead, he heard relief in his voice.

That's just so very Nine.

"I didn't go anywhere until I met you."
"Shouldn't that be all that's important, then?"

And that's just brilliant :)

I'm glad you picked that out! It's what I was going for - in my mind, they just left Adam at home, and the Doctor sees his chance ;)

Thanks for the kind words, dear!

P.S. I am transfixed by your icon. Seriously, I can't stop staring at it! It took me three minutes to reply to this because I keep getting distracted and I find myself swaying along.

Oh, that was great. So inconsequential, but so perfect and potent and memorable. Great :D

Wow! What a great set of adjectives - thanks! I'm glad you could enjoy it *g*

Just like the Doctor to refuse to answer any personal questions, and to keep them in that situation just to have a chance to chat, when he could have got them out at any time. Thumps Up!!!

Thanks so much! It was a fun little scene to weave together *g*
