Oh, wow! Just wow! This was, wow, this was just so heartbreaking and so sad and so beautiful all at once! You really did an excellent job explaning how Jack ends up as the Face of Boe, and it gave me chills reading this. It also made me cry so much, it was just so wonderful how the Doctor did his best to comfort his Jack.

Poor Jack, noticing how much he's changing in all the times he has died and come back to life, how his body is mutating. The Doctor's words of love and support to Jack at the end there really made me cry even more, these last two lines really made me choke up so much, it was just so heartfelt and wonderful:

“Jack. Oh, Jack, you are so beautiful. You are so beautiful to me now. But you will become so much more than you ever dreamed, Jack. You will be magnificent. You will be glorious.”

Jack looked into the Doctor’s eyes and saw only truth there, and love. That was all he needed to face an uncertain future.

You did a magnificent job with this prompt, sweetie, and I loved it to bits. It's gone into my memories for sure. Thanks so much for this lovely fic, and congratulations on your Bingo, sweetie! *hugs*

*hugs you* Oh, thanks so much, the fact that it could affect you so deeply is a wonderful compliment. I probably shouldn't say, but I like it myself, it made me cry writing it! We are such sentimental saps for are boys, aren't we?

It's all right to say that, really, you should definitely be proud of that. Aw, bless, we do love our boys so very much, that's for sure, and we can't help but be that way, yeah? *more hugs* David and John B are also sending you hugs in my icon.
