They read the book on the lawn in front of the library and he talks about sand and monkeys and zebras for an hour. Later it's Morocco, Alaska, France, Argentina, the moon.

This...this is adorable. It's still very recognizably the Doctor and Rose. =D

Thank you! I guess that's the tricky part, with AUs, trying to walk the balance between giving them new lives and keeping them close enough to their original selves. So thank you again, that's lovely. :)

OMG. OMGOMGOMG.
This is so fucking adorable it hurts.

He's carried a four-hundred-dollar telescope through her neighborhood in the middle of the night and neither of them are paying any attention to it. "It can be your dog, too," he says, leaning over the windowsill.

OMG. I need more of this.

Haaaaa. He is so cute in whatever form, babbling and loving Rose and generally being a hopeless dork. <3

Thank you.

That's exactly what he is. He's all the dorky boys I've loved, including the one I married.

I loved this VERY MUCH.

OMG, I LOVE THIS FIC! This is brilliant. I adore them both and want to squish them. Especially the end, oh the end. So sweet.
