Oh, this is beautiful - wonderful and heartbreaking, and totally what happened in the scenes we didn't see. I love how you've captured the Doctor here - it sounds so like him. :) I love it!!

Thanks so much! Like I said, I've not posted anything in AGES, and I've had this on the back-burner for so long, I was worried about being a bit rusty (so to speak!)

But I'm really glad you liked it :)

[time_converges]

Yes, I might have squeed a bit when I saw you had posted. :D

[caz963]

I am always pleased to have evoked squee! (Which is very flattering *blushes*)

Golly, here I am all choked up by that ending, but I absolutely both it and the growing emotions of all the other parts, leading up to that (those?) kiss(es). A wonderful series of emotional punches walloping the Doctor firmly in the head. Lovely stuff!

[caz963]

I'm sorry! But the ending was always in my head, even before I knew what all the other parts were going to be. And even though I tried several times to come up with something else, nothing worked. You know how it is - sometimes you just have to go with gut instinct.

But I'm glad you liked it anyway. I hope to be able to come up with something in a lighter vein soon!

Ooooh, this was so good. I love their kiss on midnight, and the teasing after. And the end...WHY DO YOU WANT TO MAKE ME CRY?! What did I ever do to you to deserve this?? *sob*

[caz963]

I'm sorry about the end - but like I've just said upthread, it was in my head right from the start, and even though I didn't really want to end that way, in the end, it just felt like the right choice.

Please be assured you've done nothing to offend me ;-) and I'll try to write something a bit less angsty next time!

Ooh, I know, but it still hurts! awwww, agony...season 4 just kills me.

Lovely, lovely, lovely. Nice to see this all come together. And I really think you nailed the Doctor's POV at the end of JE. It draws a clear line from JE to his eventual breakdown during The Waters of Mars - the beginning of the end, as you put it.

[caz963]

It's nice to have finally finished it after all this time!

I'm so pleased with what you've said about the last section being a pointer to what happened later, because that's how I hoped it would come across :-)

Thanks for all the encouragement *hugs*

So beautifully written, I loved their growing emotions, the way u wrote the Doctor, so him! The ending broke my heart tho but then again that's so Donna's story: heartbreaking, sigh :(

Thanks a lot for sharing !!

[caz963]

Thanks very much - I love to hear that I've got the characterisation right, because it's always my number one priority.

I'm glad you liked it.
