I love this series! I just want to give all the characters a hug. There's so much they have to adjust to.
Beyond that, Rory is adorable, with a core of steel in him that's well-hidden and very appealing. She'd tap that, if he were single and if she wasn't certain Amy would all-out murder her. I can't even! Between Donna's thoughts about Rory and her Tic Tac maraca, I couldn't contain my giggles. And yet, it's sad because it's almost like Donna is "making do" with Eleven, his new companions, and new life. She needs to find where she fits into this new equation. Eleven needs to have a serious chat with Donna instead of instigating a screaming match ( ... )

I can totally see Donna checking out Rory's ass! And if Amy caught her, she'd other be like "yeaaah, it's awesome, isn't it?!" or drag her into a hair-pulling fight. I dunno which one. Which is why I agree with you -- Amy and Donna would make great pals after the territorial instinct in Amy wore off.

I'm toying on whether I should make the next chapter explain how exactly Donna got her memory back. ;D

Oh, Lord, I love this so, so much! I even went back and reread then entire series before I let myself enjoy this one. You have a wonderful chemistry between Eleven and Donna - I particularly enjoyed her pointing out how unfair he was being by his different treatment of the Ponds - and I'm particularly thrilled you haven't fallen into the trap of Donna wanting or asking to go home (or the Doctor threatening her with it) because even in an environment as extreme as this is turning out to be, I couldn't imagine it happening.

Can't wait to see what happens next! I mean, I would love it if Rory tried to go and talk Donna off her Cliff of Fury (tm), but I suspect it will be Eleven eating humble pie as he tries to work out how Donna remembers all those things she shouldn't.

Bring on more, and soon!

Oh, and I think "shout and anyone else but me" should be shout AT anyone else but me"

Eleven just got Donna back - no way is he throwing her out! I also can't see Donna asking to go home, but I guess it *could* be possible if the case were extreme enough and/or she thought there was no way for her to fit in anymore.

I do think it's time for some Rory! I think so far he's only had like 2 lines, in three chapters!!

:D Glad you're sticking with me!

Good you're keeping this going!

DoctorDonna, oh yes!! "Live long and prosper," that had me snickering.

As for the fight between Donna and Eleven, it's got to be difficult for both of them, adapting to the new situation. Still the same old Donna, though, she doesn't back down and even managed to get in one of her slaps. Eleven, on the other hand, reacted differently from Ten; he didn't back down so easily, he almost scared me. I can't believe he told her to go to her room!

And a mystery... how does Donna remember how to stabilize the TARDIS? Although Ten did give Donna lessons on flying her, so maybe it's some of that? But then Eleven wouldn't be so surprised, would he. Hmm...

I can't wait until you update again.

Yeah, I finally updated! To be honest, this piece has been on my computer for half a year, just kind of languishing.

Keeping the mystery of Donna's fixit close to my chest! Though it will come out soon, maybe in the next chapter. Or maybe it will be the last chapter. Aaaargh, I don't know!!

Thank you for the lovely comments, as always!

*giggles* This was a treat to find after I had crossed the finish line to NaNoWriNo victory. (Still have to finish the story, but that's another matter.)

Whew! There needs to be several heart-to-hearts here. Rory and Donna talking would be awesome in so many ways. Can you see her asking if he has an older cousin or something? ;D And Amy needs to hear about Martha, and Rose. And Eleven... oh, that Spaceman needs several heart-to-hearts. One for each problem they're facing, and I'm too tired to get into them right now.

And forgetting about River? Maybe that's part of why the Snog looked so gob-smacked when she realized it was Donna in the Library. *snickers* Sorry, but I'm enjoying that thought. :D

Congrats on victory in NaNoWriNo! I've never done it myself; I have no discipline.

I'm so feeling guilty for relegating Rory to the sidelines. I need to remedy that! You know what would have been super cool? Rory and Donna and the Doctor. Don't get me wrong -- Amy&Rory are adorable, but I bet it would have been funny as hell to see Rory and Donna interact.

In this series, though, Amy does know all about the past companions. Donna was the only one the Doctor had kept to himself, because he's a big old sentimental martyr. :D That's how I love my Doctor!
