WHEEE! IT'S BACK!

No, no, I'm sure Rose's doctor won't them using the money at all. ;-)

Poor Nine. I won't what's going to happen when they find the watch and it's time to open it?

I'm pretty sure he'll consider it a good use, yeah.

Thanks for reading!

Man, this would need to be posted when I'm trying to run around getting finals done. Heh. I love this story and get irrationally happy every time I see it.

Sorry - just finished mine a little while back and from that freedom comes this fic. Glad you enjoyed it and good luck with things!

You wouldn't believe how insanely happy I was to see a new chapter of this story!

This is heartbreaking. Rose falling more and more in love with him by the minute - and him with her - and at the same time having to remember who he really is and why she can't let this go any further than she already has. I bet even the fact that they've gone this far is tearing her apart ( ... )

I'm just gonna go with ditto to all the above. And add my own 'it was brilliant and I can't wait for more'.

*love*

Rose falling more and more in love with him by the minute - and him with her - and at the same time having to remember who he really is and why she can't let this go any further than she already has. I bet even the fact that they've gone this far is tearing her apart.

It's a horrible balance of what she wants to do, what she can't do, and what she needs to do to keep from completely alienating human him. If she turned back now, it would not be a good ride back to Barcelona. Backing out at this point basically means a nasty breakup, another thing she wants to avoid with the Doctor.

He's not just dreaming of Gallifrey now, either; he's describing it to Rose thinking it's San Francisco. :( If she doesn't find the watch soon, she won't need it. It's all bleeding through, and it won't take much to bring it all back.

You'd be amazed how much Gallifrey = San Fransisco in the correct lighting. That aside, there would still be the issue of him in a human body.

And then there's Jack, whom Rose clearly loved as well. How did he die? Will ( ... )

They snogged!!!
Can't wait to see what happens next!

Heheh, thanks for reading!

Just when I thought I couldn't possibly wait any longer for an update!

Maybe my favorite part: the Gallifrey memories, lovely and heartbreaking:
"The sky would turn red with taillights, some nights. Throw in a sunset and it went all orange, like fall leaves. The trees didn’t, though. Those went silver with it. Just the leaves...“It was like another world,” he says, his voice fallen fully back into a whisper. “Oh, Rose. I wish you could’ve seen it...“I didn’t even like it that much. Not really. I was always leaving or tryin’ to."

Thank you for another mesmerizing chapter!

rallalon December 25 2009, 01:01:55 UTC

Eheh, sorry about that. Finals were pesky things.

Maybe my favorite part: the Gallifrey memories

Oh, was that passage a good one to write. Glad you liked it!

And thank you for reading!
