Thank you so much for the review, Azriona; I really felt like you got what I was doing with the fic. It was the first big DW fic I wrote, and sort of informed my idea of Romana ever after. And you noticed a lot of little things that I don't think were obvious, like Romana's affinity for timepieces.
(She also takes the names of Jack the Ripper victims as her pseudonyms, but that was purely self-indulgence on my part, and didn't have so much to do with the story itself.)
If you'd like to read more stories featuring Romana, especially interacting with the New Who characters and situations, I could offer some recs. It's the area of fandom I know and love best.
I knew there was something familiar about those names - I just couldn't think of what. Probably just as well I didn't notice, because I probably could have gone all analytical on her choices in that regard! (New life to dead girls, letting them live a little longer, give them a bit more time, etc. Compared to her, dead but still alive in a way? Hmm.)
I would very much appreciate some recs, for both fanfic and episodes - although I'll warn you might not get to them for another few weeks. I finally watched The Pirate Planet a few weeks ago, and greatly enjoyed it.
Wheeeee! Thank you very much, unfolded73. It's always extremely gratifying to hear that someone enjoys reading about my particular version of TenII even a fraction as much as I enjoy writing him. Because I... really enjoy writing him. And whether or not he works, kind of feels like the barometer for whether or not the story can work.
Hee, and you know how I feel - sex should always be a little bit funny.
