This is absolutely beautiful. Your Donna voice is absolutely perfect both in the sassiness and the sadness. I love how you let her find peace and that Shaun IS a wonderful bloke who only wants to make her happy.

Great use of the prompt as well!

You totally rock!

Thank you so much! I'd been rewatching Series 4 before EoT, so I had a head full of Donna lately.

Thank you for the prompt!

Oh, that is gorgeous. And heartbreaking. And absolutely perfect.

I love how Shaun is in this; he doesn't mind that she's not interested, he goes and does his own thing; he just wants to share the most beautiful parts with her.

I still want Donna to somehow have everything that she's lost, but at least here you've given her peace about it, and it's beautiful.

*sniffs*

::nods:: I think Shaun is an easygoing fellow -- he'd have to be, I think, to live peacefully with Donna Noble. :) I like couples who fill each other's gaps.

And thank you, I'm so pleased you enjoyed it!

I still want Donna to somehow have everything that she's lostSigh, I know. My favorite post-Journey's End Donna fic is your temp agency one. I think now I'm just shifting that personal canon forward in time a bit. She'll get there eventually ( ... )

Oh, I don't know whether this makes me happy or sad, but it was a lovely read.

Aw, I understand, I'm not sure how it makes me feel either. Thank you very much!

Loved Donna in the series, and love how you write her in her AD (After Doctor) life.

Donna was wonderful, wasn't she? Glad you enjoyed this, thank you!
