Yum, a meaty plot chapter.

...This fic reminds me of how badly I want a daemon. XD

Well, you can. The point I was trying to communicate in the second chapter (via the Doctor) is that it's all a matter of mental construction; if you want to cordon off a section of your mind, give it a voice, a personality, and a settled form, well then you can. It doesn't make you crazy, as long as you know it's all in your mind. I refer you to The Dæmon Page for more details.

Oh, I'm glad to hear this from you. It was your DW/HDM crossover fics that made me decide to write one of my own. :)

“It's a portal detector. Goes 'ping' when there's Void stuff.”

I totally see what you did there. Awesome.

I'm loving the interactions with the daemons, it's just gorgeous, and your characters are absolutely pitch-perfect. You've really got what makes crossovers so wonderful, their worlds are blending seamlessly. This is such a great story!

p.s, what kind of otter is Rose's, river or ocean? And what kind of lion is Jack's? African, Asiatic, or American? The animal-geek in me needs to know!

Oh, you're an animal geek too? I'm so thrilled! I hope you read this comment, in which I explained why I chose the animals I did.

I'm going to say African lion, since Asiatic lions are less social than African lions, and there's not enough information about the behavior of American lions to analyze them properly in any case.

River otter for Rose, definitely. Sea otters are highly territorial, which doesn't fit well in my opinion. The Doctor's the territorial one, heh.

So glad to hear you're enjoying this story!

“Like five year olds with PhDs, you are.”
Possibly the best description of them EVER. *g*

Oh, the plot thickens! Would comment more, but must dash to next chapter!

(In love with Rose and Jack's daemon's, btw. And wondering what the Doctor's would be if he weren't faking it.)
