You know, I wasn't going to read post-JE fic until I'd decided how I felt about it. But then you posted this, and I had to because I love your writing and there is added bonus of Martha/Tom which I love and nobody writes.

And oh my God, I'm so glad I read it. So glad. This was perfect - I have tears right now and just... wow. When Martha saw Donna it broke my little heart. The Martha and Jack stuff, her conversations with Sarah Jane, that absolutely amazing exchange with Mickey about Rose. All amazing. Luke/Clyde was awesome too, it just worked and even though I don't ship them I loved their little mentions ( ... )

People should write Martha/Tom, they are so very adorable and pretty and if Martha can't be with Owen then Tom is definitely my next choice.

I didn't ship Clyde/Luke, and then they were cute so I started. *grins* I'm glad you liked the "Rose" conversation, that was my favourite bit to write.

Long and rambly is very gratifying, actually sweetie, thank you so very much, I'm really pleased that you liked! Also? *hugs* And I hope you have a nice sleep now...

I don't think I'll read another post DW fic because this is how I want it to be. It is in my memories.

Aww. *blushes* Thank you so very much sweetie.

I think what made me saddest about this was the feeling of Donna just around the very edges. Really good stuff.

I couldn't forget her now, could I? ;) Thank you very much sweetie.

Oh wow... This is wonderfully detailed and feels very real, both in terms of the characters themselves and also how they interact with each other. (I know it's supposed to be aaaages before we get any new Torchwood, but now I'm really looking forward to seeing how the new team works together.) I don't think I'll ever get tired of reading your stories! :-)

Oh, my. I never know what to say about your writing, it blows me away every single time. I'm shivering and I have tears on my eyes and a smile on my face, and, wow, I really love this. So much. I can't even pick a favorite part, honestly, I think it's perfect. Just looking at the Tori Amos lyrics you chose makes me shiver. Thank you for writing this, I guess is what I'm trying to say.
