Bioluminescence, TenII/Rose, Eleven/Rose, PG-13 I came to tell you, we'll swim in the water, we'll swim like something sparkling underneath the waves, 1726.
He walked to the wall and leaned down, feeling for something in the dark and said, "I asked them to leave these, in case you came back."
The room lit up as dozens of strings of white lights blinked on overhead, and Rose gasped.
He watched her tilt back her head and look up into the lights, and he could have stayed like that forever, but she looked at him suddenly, a certain gleam in her eyes.
"Did you have them leave a blender?"
He grinned.
I'm collecting such a lovely set of snapshots of TenII and Rose, living their fantastic life. This is definitely one of them...
EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS AMAZING. I want to quote back the entire first section just because of how beautifully you put it. Oh, my god. And ROSE and the DOCTOR and THE DOCTOR AGAIN and just gyuhhhh.
I'm glad you liked it. I threw this entire fic out and started over TWICE, and it still doesn't feel done, and I'm a little frazzled, so your enthusiasm is comforting. :) THANK YOU.
Oh, yay! :D I'm glad you slogged through whatever writer's angst you were struggling with because thisissofuckingcuteIcan'teven!!! I just LOVE that she chooses TenII... and fairy lights... and a blender... *huggles u* Thanks!
I liked this a lot. The opening scene was very well done, and the bits with Eleven were quite good too. I especially liked:
"Bit of an incident recently where I...never existed," he said.
LOL, and
"Oh, I'm sorry, have you regenerated into a better driver?" Rose said, and handed back the groceries, breezing past him.
Oh snap!
Being the fervent Ten2/Rose shipper that I am though my favourite bits were the last two scenes, particularly:
She looked at him with mild surprise, "how--" and he ducked his head with a wry little smile.
"I looked out the window."
Yikes. I can imagine it wasn't a particularly pleasant wait for him. But then the end scene is adorable!
They stayed like that for a long moment and then the Doctor got a fit of the giggles, and when it became clear that he couldn't stop, she found she couldn't either.
Between hiccuping gasps for air, hands on his knees, he gestured wildly at the room around them and said, "This place is just awful! It's not romantic in the least!"

Yeah, I'm unhealthily obsessed with TenII, but I was determined to just write Eleven this week. That did not happen.
I'm so glad you liked the last two scenes, I wasn't completely sure if they worked, and I would've liked to stare at them for a few more...weeks...before posting them. :)
LOL Poor Eleven, this is about the only capacity in which I can accept his placement in Doctor/Rose fic. I like Eleven, quite a lot, but most Eleven/Rose fics leave me going "but Ten2 D: D:". So I liked this.
I think the last two scenes were good. Rose's return in the first one is a bit understated, but I think it worked, you say just enough that we can imagine the tension and the patented Ten Angst. But LOL I know the feeling of "ugh this scene is still not exactly right!"
...most Eleven/Rose fics leave me going "but Ten2 D: D:".
THIS.
Rose's return in the first one is a bit understated...
Understated like..."OMG DEADLINE I HAVE TO JUST POST IT!!!"? LOL. I'm really glad it all still comes across. And that you can sympathize with my perfectionist angst. :D
Ugh, I know, I was just picturing him up there in that big window being flirty and adorable and then just being like "WHAAAAAAAT?" I'm sure he was delightful at that party.

"I'm going to have to call you back," Rose said, flipping the phone shut without waiting for an answer
Oh no, poor TenToo, and he's watching ..... =(
Rose's phone rang, but she ignored it.
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
"I asked them to leave these, in case you came back."
Omg.
In CASE she came back =( ... those lines just broke me in about 10 different places.
