That was a great b-day present.

Aw. Happy Birthday!

"She is the one thing whose loss would destroy him."

Aw. Very nice.

But. That story was so intense. I like writing long reviews, pointing out my favorite lines etc, but... wow. I just can't do it right now, sorry. I've never read a TARDIS centric story like that. And your style: dark. But powerful. Gosh, I feel so sorry for the Doctor and your last line was making me very sad. I was never that scared of the TARDIS.
You are indeed the queen of dark, splendid fanfiction.

Thanks a lot!
I like writing the TARDIS. I think TARDIS/Doctor was the first DW pairing I ever wrote. But I also see her as smething alien that doesn't view the world like we do.

Really beautiful. And how you let her see the world through Jack's eyes! *shivers* It wasn't her fault since she only wanted to comfort her Doctor. But... she was scary after all and now I think the Doctor is REALLY lost *sigh*

Wonderful done, again.

Neat. I love the idea of the TARDIS deliberately making Jack what he is so she can help her Doctor. It's also rather interesting how she isn't this innate force of good, but rather her own entity with some maybe not-so-well-executed ideas. She's not completely infallible. Such an interesting piece. Well done!

Thank you!
I alswys try to portray the TARDIS as something alien, that has her own priorities. In the end she is, at heart, a machine. A sentinent one, but still completely different from us.

Oh my god... that was so beautiful. It is certainly a very different perspective from the usual Doctor and/or Jack. Where on earth did you get the inspiration for this??

This is definitely my favorite line:
"Once the dream is shaken off he looks at them and understands at once.
What have you done? he whispers"

Arghh lol I really really like this fic :) Love you now!!

Not that I'd mind an early birthday gift, but how could I ever not like something you wrote?

I've had an idea for your birthday story: How does hurt!Doctor and overprotective, bodering-on-psychotic Jack sound?

Sorry, was gone jogging.
I can go on Skype. Although reading stories there is always a little distracting. They look better as a whole, generally. In that little field much of the atmosphere is lost.
