I loved even more Rose telling him that she wanted the Doctor and Jack to be happy together after she was gone. Always thinking of the people she loves. :(

That's one thing I love about Rose -- that her concern for the Doctor and Jack always outweighs any concerns she may have for herself. I'm glad you enjoyed that scene because I had fits about deciding whether to keep it in or not -- I wasn't sure whether it fit in with the rest of the story, but I'm glad I did, now.

I think Jack and the Doctor BOTH are exceedingly more comfortable when there's something to do -- an alien invasion to stop or a drug to administer or what have you. The fact that they might not be able to do anything -- that they might have to submit to this force that's larger than them, I think it's really breaking them inside. Especially given where all the characters are, emotionally, right now. (Lord, I'm evil.)

I LOVE that scene with Jack and Rose, I really do. It took me back to writing "Companions", in Evolution of Rose. There's something about that

They'd fallen into a sort of rhythm, through all of the adventures they'd had together. The Doctor's lanky strides carried him with grace over the ground that the Captain powered through, but they were somehow equal.

I loved this line. It captures the chemistry Jack and Ten have that can be so hard to describe.

There's really something that just... snaps into place whenever they're on screen together. (And I happen to LOVE Doctor Who Jack so much more than Torchwood Jack so I tend to point out his awesomeness in Who stories as often as possible.)

Oh, this is beautiful! I love the dream sequence and Rose's comment about wanting Ten and Jack to be happy after she's gone. I look forward to the next installment! (And take your time, the result is always worth it!)

I always feel so guilty when I take my time, though! Seriously, these chapters aren't long, but writing them does take something out of you and you've got to go grab the equivalent of a creative Gatorade once you're done. I'm so glad you're enjoying this story! thank you for continuing to comment. It makes me feel like this is worth it.

Oh my poor broken time travelers *huggles*

[ladychi]

They really are in a hard place right now. Thanks for commenting!

I loved Rose's dream. I could really feel it.

I'm glad so many people liked it, because I nearly deleted it! Silly Chi.
