Title: Breathing
Genre: Dark angst
Rating: PG
Couple: Rose/Doctor
Summary: He always told her she would wither and die, and he would live on alone. He promised her she could live with him her whole life. She never thought not to believe him. Not your usual angst fic.

One day, a long time ago, so long ago, he told me I could spend my whole life with him. I believed him. He lied. )

I think it's perfect just the way it is. And so true, yeah. Everyone talks about how ancient he is but so few seldom address the fact that he's not immortal--essentially, just long-lived. This is definitely one of my favorite of yours.

Now, write me something happy!

:)

Thank you very much! And yes! Seems like alot of people look at him as immortal, or very, very close to it, when really he's just as vulnerable as the rest of his people, eventually.

Glad ya liked it, was hoping for something of a unique twist on the classic 'curse of the Timelords' sort of angst.

And, I'm workin on it! XD

*sigh* How true. He has been rather careless with his regenerations as of late. But bad wolf...that always continues. *grin*

Oh, totally. Eight, Nine, just raced right through. Like he's got more than 2 or 3 left! *hopes 10 stays a very very long time*

*hoping on your hope as well* With the way he seems to be going backwards through his regenerations, by the time he hits Thirteen, he's gonna look like a teenager! *grin*

LOL

Possibly a ginger one at that. Which'd be scary, cause he'd then fit right with F/G Weasley. :P Although, didn't 13 make an (evil) appearance during 4's run?

*give sad puppy dog eyes* Write something happy and fluffy now? That was really good, but sad, but good. And it's true, one never really thinks about how many regenerations he has left...

Thank you! And, yeah...Not a pleasant thought to think he's running out of em.
