Just lovely. I adore Rory.

I really like how you brought the three realities in line with one another.

I really enjoyed this.

Thank you very much :) This was my attempt to reconcile for myself the various lifelines we've seen him live through. I got very confused by it all and needed to sort it out.

Ooooh, this is brilliant. It's easy to see how poor Rory would get so confused, and yey for River helping him out. I absolutely love fics with River and Rory together, and this was wonderful.

Thank you so much. I must admit I'm really fascinated by the River and Rory dynamic myself so who better to help Rory (and me) figure out his lifetimes?

*splutters* What? What is this amazingness?!?!?! <3 <3 <3

I love everything about this.

*eeeeee* thank you! You know the discussions we had were the inspiration for this, right? Helping Rory figure out the mish mash of his lives was very helpful for me in making S6 work for me. I feel a lot more at peace about a lot of it :D

I really wish I had a River/Rory icon for this story. I love how River teases out Rory's problems and concerns. You can really see her love and affection for her papa here, even though Rory's a bit too wrapped up in himself right now to realise it. And I love the dream at the end. *claps*

Well, Roman Rory is a perfectly acceptable alternative :D

Thank you very much. I've always been fascinated by the interactions between these two as well and she seemed a perfect person to help Rory with this particular dilemma :)

The changes you made were magnifique, my darling. I'm so so so sorry I never got back to you - my life exploded. I have so much to tell you !

But it turns out you didn't need my help anyway. This was so so lovely, everything it promised it would be AND MORE the first time I read it.

Beautiful x (and I've watched a few dr who episodes now, damn you!!!)

Awww thank you and don't worry about it. Please do tell me all about it!! You know I'm always available on email and skype should you ever want to talk about anything :D

Yay for watching DW episodes too! I shall make a convert of you yet. What did you see, what did you think? I have to know all the things!!!!
