An Outdoor Thing

Peter sighed happily, contentment radiating through his body. He and Rose were once more at the cottage, had taken advantage of an unusually warm weekend to drive up from Kendal and simply hide. The zanzare had finally sussed out that Rose was, in fact, dating him; wasn’t simply using him to meet some physical needs, or to amuse ( Read more... )

Oh I love it:D I get a kick out of Peter thinking he won't ever be ready to get married again when we all know they do. Shows once again how much they healed each other and how far they have come. That's part of why I really like you writing this short fics that are all out of order in their relationship it's more interesting and better way to read IMO:D

I always hate being kept in suspense when I'm reading a novel--so jumping around makes it easier on everyone. The later fics are up, so you know how things turn out, but you get to go back and read the times where major events happened without having to worry about it being the End of the Road or something equally dire! :)

I hope you know just how brilliant you are <3

My most favorite part about this story was your description about the glade. I'm a whore for details, and you just made Rose and Peter's escapade there, seem that much more real. I think I'd quite like to live in Peter's cottage.

Thank you for making Monday so much of a better day! Wonderful job.

Thank you! I love that little glad, and have found that it's a detail that is incredibly vivid in my imagination for some reason. If I were an artist, I'd draw it, so vivid is it--but as I'm not, I'll have to stick with using words to describe it.

As for Peter's cottage? I'd live in it in a heartbeat, if it had better heating ;)

I'm glad I helped to brighten your Monday!

This week's fic was gorgeous as usual, but I just wanted to briefly mention how amazing it is that you write these in the first place. So many stories do amazing things with their characters, but they're left to be after the fic ends. These little fics make me see Rose and Peter not just as characters from DW and Blackpool, but as their own seperate characters. So, good on you and hooray for continuing with our favorite couple!

Mercy--thank you! I really can't imagine *not* writing now, after doing it so constantly for the past 14 months, and I've found that (generally) it's incredibly relaxing. It's also incredibly escapist, which is excellent therapy some days :)

I'm always flattered and amazed and kind of "wow" that other people enjoy the characters, too, and that they are as invested in them as I have become. So...thank you, too, for reading, and commenting, and for loving Peter and Rose as much as I do.

He in turn gazed at her, drinking in the sight of her so totally at ease--hair mussed, clothes wrinkled, Rose Tyler simply being Rose Tyler.

He loved her desperately.

She turned to him after a few moments of silent contemplation, her eyes drifting across his face, and he smiled softly at her. “D’you like what you see?”

“Oughtn’t you be naked when you’re asking that?”

“I am,” he whispered, holding her gaze.

This has to be one of my favorite interchanges between these two. Brilliant as always.
