Bwahahaha! Captain Troy Handsome made me laugh in the episode, and your use of it here made me laugh even more. I love the Eleven/Jack dynamic you have here, with Jack both knowing him and not knowing him, thinking he's out of place when he really isn't. I love Eleven/Jack so much, since there's the possibility for way less angst than with Ten. And I loved the "Do not, Do too" argument. It was silly, but sometimes Doctor Who IS silly. It's part of why I love the show. Anyway, long comment is long, but I really enjoyed this fic. Thanks for sharing, since the world can always use more Eleven/Jack :)

Wait, when did he use that in an episode? I'm drawing a blank.

It was in The Lodger :)

And I loved that line when I heard it, totally made me think of Jack :)

I so totally missed that bit. Must rewatch now. *g* Thanks!

Long comment is awesome, thanks! :)

Yeah, I loved the line the first time I heard it and it made me think of Rose's "Captain envy" line right away, and then when t_s made that comment to my reaction post - right as I was trying to come up with a story idea for my prompt, no less - alchemy happened and this idea was born.

I like the dynamic between them, too. I didn't plan it that way, it just sort of happened. I really hope we get to see the two of them interact on screen.

Thanks for a great comment! :)
