But Broken Lights - Chapter Eleven

O when her life was yet in bud,
       He too foretold the perfect rose.
       For thee she grew, for thee she grows
For ever, and as fair as good.

“Speech is but broken light upon the depths of the unspoken.”
George Eliot

She awoke to the strange sensation of something vaguely slimy moving over her nose. She batted at it

Oh frabjous day! I am honestly running out of adjectives excessive enough to describe my love for this story, and for that I apologize. Suffice it to say that you win at Doctor Who, teh internets, and life, and I hope you happen across someone who's enough of a great proficient at fanvid-making to match your writing.

Incidentally, LJ Spell Check doesn't recognize 'frabjous' any more than it does 'Callimachus'. Tragic!

It's over! *sobs*

I'd not re-read this chapter since, well, a while ago. Shame on me for forgetting how absolutely brilliant it is: perfect characterization, amazing--incredible, really--UST, a nice touch of angst...and a wonderful weaving together of the remaining loose ends. And as if the end with them in the console room wasn't enough of a cliffhanger, you added the teaser for Heartbreak Hotel?

*bows to the awesomeness*

:) I love the way you write 10 and Rose's relationship. :) Banana goop indeed.

Can't wait for the next installment!

Okay, so I have loved this story. Loved loved loved it. And this part? With the confessions and the banana gloop and the half-naked Rose touching the Doctor? I was all, "Please miss, can I have some more?"

And then I get to the epilogue, and those dreaded words: this fall. GAH! What a wait . . . but it'll be a wait that's worth it.
