That's so sad. I want to hold him and cuddle him and tell him how special he is. I might have to go write fluffly Doctor/Master fic just to increase my sugar cotnent (-: But well done, as always.

That's so heartbreaking. You do an exceptional job of capturing the feeling of loneliness in your writing.

Oh, so sad. You're just so good in writing such hopeless situations and making me feel so sorrowful and cheerless. Well in a satisfying way, hope you understand...^^
Freu mich immer Geschichten von dir zu lesen, halten einem immer irgendwie gefangen.

You had me from special guest appearance by the last dodo.

“Of course she didn’t know she was the last one. ...
“And you didn’t even look.”
“I’m not a dodo. I knew.”

That is exquisite prose, there.

“Agreed,” the Master nods. “But look! I’ve got you a present.” He bents down, moves as if pushing something and then a big, shapeless bird with a large beak waddles out from behind the console. It speeds up when it sees the Doctor, and the Doctor drops to his knees to greet it.

And that is adorable, and well-described.

“We are extinct, you and I.”

And that is curt and good because of it.

Lovely fic!

That was heart breaking in every sense.
