This is amazing, deary - you've made me laugh uncontrollably and sob all in the space of about 5 minutes - how do you DO that? *grabs a tissue*
I really love the interaction between Martha and Owen - they're such a weird "ship" that it's good - kind of hard to explain.
*hugs*

That was the effect I was going for - humour and tragedy! Thank you very much :)

I LOVE Owen and Martha, they're just so sweet... which is good since I now have to write another 98 fics with them ;)

*grins* Thanks honey! That's what I was going for...

I want A Weevil Man shirt!! =D Or “A guy made of celluloid stole my last breath” shirt, that would really be awesome... or icons at least... *opens GIMP* ^.^

ANYWHO... brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!!! =D
This was soo funny, especially the conversation between Owen and the Doctor, just brilliant! =D They should let the two meet on DW or TW or anywhere, cause I could actually see them talk like that. *g*
And you've captured Owen (and the others, especially Ianto *g*) so well, all his comments and everything, King Weevil!! ^.^

I want a A guy made of celluloid stole my last breath t-shirt too, I think it would amuse me :)

Thank you very much sweetie :) I'd love it if the Doctor and Owen met, though I suspect it won't happen. *sad face*

I think it would be one of those shirts everyone would ask about but they wouldn't understand it anyway...

Well, you never know with Doctor Who and Torchwood, right? *still hopes to see Owen again in next season*

[paperclipbitch]

I still want a The Angels Have The Phonebox t-shirt... I think those are the kind of t-shirts that get ruined when you explain them ;)

I want Owen back, so you have a point :D *gets optimistic*

asd;lajs Broken now. Oh God. Dammit it's like watching the episode all over again.

But aside from that, this is a beautiful, fantastic story, really excellently tied into canon and as always you write the best Owen ever, and your Martha and the Doctor as also a total, total joy. Everyone, actually, the cameos from Tom and Ianto and so on. :D

I have EPIC love for this line in particular, which made me laugh so hard I had to stop reading for a minute or so:

Jack suffocated in the passenger seat, though; he’s such a lightweight.

I just-- that's Torchwood, right there in a nutshell. Morbid and cracked out and hilarious when it shouldn't be.

[paperclipbitch]

Yeah, I'm trying to edge away from Exit Wounds too. It's nasty...

Thank you honey! It was initially going to just be Owen and Martha, but when I write either Ianto or Owen the other one always pops up, and then Tom got involved ('cause I love him) and it got crowded :)

*grins* I'm glad you liked that line, I just had the best mental image of Owen driving and Jack being suffocated...
