A gorgeous study in deep, but understated emotion. The dialogue and Wilf's death were particularly touching. Gah, she was just so perfect for him. Hope you'll write more of this stuff!

[rude_not_ginger]

Thank you so much! It was tough to write because I didn't want her to ever go!

Oh, god. This is fabulous. :( Oh, Donna. Rose didn't fix the Doctor; you did.

Why couldn't it have gone this way?

[rude_not_ginger]

She did so much for him, I'm completely heartbroken she's gone.

I can't see why it couldn't have? What would've a little old makeup and a sad goodbye scene have hurt them if she really had to go?

[hofficoffi]

As am I. She is my favorite of the New Who girls, hands down. The dynamic was just right.

Exactly! And we know they like old makeup, right? So good times would have been had by all. As much as I hate the implication that the 'ordinary' human life is a bad thing, RTD told us that it was, and our so-brilliant Donna doesn't deserve that.

You just delight in breaking my heart, don't you? This was lovely and sad but happy too and very much what I wish Donna had had as her life. Well done, my dear.

[rude_not_ginger]

Thank you so kindly, darling!

*mends your poor heart*

beautifully bittersweet-- how you've portrayed their relationship is exactly how I imagine it to be, and I really wish it had gone this way in the show.

loved it:)

Thank you very much. I knew CT was leaving at the end and secretly hoped RTD would show her living out her life with the Doctor but, alas, no.
