I have a lot of love welling up inside of me for this story. Love is bursting from my head. This is good.

“Two Doctors,” she said. He nodded, and Donna felt herself grinning. “God, they’re doomed.” TRUFAX.

Oh and I think I figured out how to write my next bit for our story. Instead of recapping the whole scene I'm going to write something from Rose's pov right before Donna gets hit by the truck. That way I can still kind of tie in the previous scene. I also might write something else, something short form another UNIT members perspective.

P.S. I'm watching Twilight. I just thought you should know. haha. vampires.

Why thank you! In truth it's more like three Doctors, so they're kind of double-doomed.

Ooo. Sounds good. Eventually I'll finish the damn fight scene. As you've probably noticed when I write longer things I tend to take breaks during which I write unrelated things.

Hahahahaha, Twilight. I only did see that movie the once.

Oh Twilight! I own the DVD, but I only watch it when I'm alone in the house. Haha! I have come to the realization that I actually do like the movie.

(I like it too) Only I don't own it. My roommate does, so that means I'm going to have to buy my own copy one day. ... I am sad about this ( ... )

All right, so she’d been locked in the TARDIS and chucked into a fiery pit by angry pepper pots, and the Doctor’s pet hand had grown into a person. It wasn’t like it was the strangest thing she’d experienced.

...Okay, so maybe it was.

Bwah! I think we all felt something similar while watching JE, Donna.

Awesome, as always. I liked the fact that Ten II got all growly at the idea of Rose ending up as Dalek dust even though he got shot down and taken out of action by Davros in about five seconds. Bless him for trying.

This is absolutely lovely. I wished we could have seen more of Ten 2 and Donna in the Tardis before they came to the rescue. In my mind this is exactly what would have happened. Goldy_dollar is hits the spot with "I think we all felt something similar while watching JE, Donna. "
Ten 2's reaction to Rose is pretty spectacular.
A lovely piece before all the angst.

There are lots of bits of JE I wish we'd gotten to see more of, and Ten2 and Donna in the TARDIS is definitely one of them.

I think on some level Ten2 would be quite distracted by the fact that he hasn't had a proper reunion with Rose yet. And Donna'd be worried about the other Doctor and the other Doctor would be thinking Donna was dead, and it's all a bit of a mess.

Thanks!

I can't even remember the sensation of WTF I must've had while watching JE the first time, but I'm sure it was wonderful. Plus I mean, we all kind of knew the hand thing was coming. I was just relieved Ten hadn't regenerated into Donna.

Poor Ten 2, it must've been incredibly disorienting to go from OMG ROSE WHEE to AHH DYING (BUT OMG ROSE WHEE) to WTF THE TARDIS ON FIRE AND I'M NAKED AND ROSE IS GONE in like, three minutes. lirl

Thanks!

She’d seen the way the other Doctor had smiled when he’d finally pulled the blonde close to him.

I love Rose/Ten so much, and this was super true.

I also liked the detail that the pessimistic voice in her head always sounded like her mum. I imagine that the hopeful voice used to sound like her Granddad, but now probably sounds like the doctor. Or maybe the doctor is all the other voices in her head--hopeful, crazy, enthusiastic, right.

Their squishy TARDIS hug was adorable. I feel a bit bad that Ten2 was deprvied of it, but not that bad because he gets her in the end, lol.

I just... Sylvia bothers me so much, lol. And you've got a point, I think, about Wilf and the Doctor. After JE she probably can't place where it comes from.

Thanks!
