I enjoyed this so much!

There's a great balance to this, as a character study with both 10.5 & Rose trying to figure out who they are in light of who they were. I loved the humanity that shone through with 10.5, and revelation that Rose comes to in the end.

The style in which this is written really draws in all your senses in the best way.

Also, the bits with Jackie! I'd have to think that she would be there, helping him get through the rough bits of being in that new universe...

I really enjoyed this. I think it's an interesting (and probably more realistic) take on their relationship. I loved the bits of Donna coming through and his relationship with Jackie. Really wonderful stuff.

Very, very good!

It always amazes me when people write Handy & Rose as all flowers and rainbows and luvvy-wuvvy because I don't see them being like that AT ALL. She RAN AWAY from him towards the TARDIS as it dematerialised on that beach - you're not telling me he's not going to be hurt by that, and that she, selfish as she is, won't hurt him like that again.

Nice to see this more realistic take on matters, and thank goodness Jackie's there for him even when Rose isn't...
