I knew it! I knew it from the minute you mentioned blue eyes and blonde hair (I'd been secretly holding out for the Master up until that point, hee).

Very cute fic. I love the wedding bit; of course the Doctor would have the worst timing; it's like an art form to him.

Well actually I didn't mention blonde hair - I said curly (since Eight's hair is brown)...

It was never going to be the Master - Martha/Master is one ship that doesn't interest me.

I'm glad you enjoyed it ! And of course the Doctor's got poor timing - what's being a TIME Lord got to do with anything?!

Oh man, that was amazing. You managed to run the full gambit of emotions with this one. I am not a Doctor/Martha shipper at all, but I loved this story.

Thanks ! I'm glad that you enjoyed it. I can tell you it left ME emotionally exhausted to write it !

I was not expecting that....Good fic! Full of surprises and interesting twists! Sad at the end though. This fic made me cry - I think that's the third fic you've written that has made me cry! Such wonderful writing and characterisation. Excellent fic. Well done!

persiflage_1 April 1 2008, 08:36:01 UTC

It made me cry too ! Writing and proofing it - I think yesterday, when I went through it one last time before posting it, was the first time I read the end without actual tears. How lame is that?

I'm glad that you enjoyed it - and that it surprised you !

GUH. Just. Argh. I couldn't stop myself, I had to read this now (I'm at work) and I'm trying so hard not to cry here at my table. I'm totally gutted! I wasn't expecting the twist at all, and the ending??? Omg. Just amazingly wonderful. Okay, I have to stop gushing, but it's just so beautiful!!!

Thank you very much - that's exactly the kind of response I was hoping for - to surprise people (and I'm not going to apologise for causing tears since it caused me tears too !)

P.S. I found some typos, will send 'em over in a bit :)

Oh really? Darn ! That's me and padawanpooh fired again then ! :(

Here ya go:

“… you will have more a lot more stamina “ <- an extra "more"
“I thought she would generous in bed, she is in everything else.” <- missing “be”

Nah, I was just so into the story that I caught them, otherwise it would've been pretty hard to pick them out!

At least it was only two !

Thanks !

You made me cry! I'm still crying which has NEVER happened before. I didn't know I could experience so many emotions at once. You're an amazing writer. This one's going in with the favorites, even though I can never read it again. Anyhow, I sound like I've been at the scotch, even though I'm sober. Thank you so much. Thanks.

persiflage_1 April 1 2008, 10:28:16 UTC

Why can you never read it again?

I'm glad that you enjoyed it... And I'm refusing to apologise for making people cry as that was pretty much the intention...

00sophie April 1 2008, 19:10:53 UTC

"Why can you never read it again?"

70 years worth of emotion in one story...The one heart I have can't take that kind of strain :o)But I guess I'm a little masochist because I've already been poking around it again.

"that was pretty much the intention..."

I wasn't asking for an apology. That would mean asking you to apologize for writing an affective piece. I read the warning, but this was the first time anyone's hit the mark. Bull’s-eye@

Ha ! I guess you must be a masochist then !

I wasn't going to issue the tissue warning - I mean, yeah, it made me cry, but then I'm a Romantic fool... But padawanpooh said I should so I figured I would...
