LOL Strangest A/N ever to feature me: Firstly thank you to my Magic Eight Ball persiflage_1

I've been called many things in my time, but never a Magic Eight Ball before! :D

This interested me:

Though to an extent he was still unsure of the healing properties that humans believed the substance had.

- considering the part tea played in his regeneration into his tenth incarnation.

I like calling you my Magic Eight Ball. ;)

Yeah I was wondering if someone would pick me up on the tea bit. The blatantly obvious healing properties are blatantly obvious, but there's the whole concept with many British/Irish (definitely mine) families that tea fixes everything. So I figured the physical aspects are obvious to him but he still hasn't worked out how it can heal emotions or relationships or family disputes. If that makes sense?

I like calling you my Magic Eight Ball. ;)

*giggles* I shall go around self-referentially as MBE, and folks'll go "Huh?" (Or, more like, "Whatever, Pers. *mutters aside* "What's she on now?")

[self_preserving]

Lmao! MEB ...lol I'm gonna start calling you Mebbie. *ruffles your hair*

I may have thought to myself "I wonder if Pers will notice this..." ;)

Yeah we all do tea on auto-pilot, my brother and I were talking about that last night. Because he came in and started making tea while I was finishing up. So he asked me to leave the milk out, then still opened the fridge to get it when he moved to that side of the kitchen.

Well this was lovely to wake up to this morning!

ADORED the Doctor's chat with Luke. Totally them- along with Luke's fear that his mum would up and leave him. Shame he didn't take the Doctor's hint and go and return Sarah's watch; she'll be desperate to see her son I'm sure, confusion or not.

Also am amused by the Doctor putting his foot in it - again - with Alistair. "Forget I said four..." Bwah!

So... something's coming, eh?

*straps in for the ride*

[self_preserving]

Why thank you ma'am ♥

Yeah but *pokes* don't you want the Doctor and Sarah to have a serious discussion about who she is and where she came from so she at least has an idea of what she's dealing with before she talks with Luke?

*giggles* I do love when the Doctor puts his foot in it. Not his fault really, in my timeline he's only a year off. :P

Something is coming indeed. ♥

*checks you're buckled in appropriately*... *needs to stop mothering people*

[boro_girl]

Yes. I mean no. I mean, of course. I mean...

Oh hell, I have NO idea idea. I like, I have, and I write two different Sarahs in my head. One needs to know everything before she starts bringing people up to speed. The other doesn't care and just needs to make sure her son is OK. I bounce between the two with alarming irrationality...

So on the one hand she knows Luke is going to have a MILLION questions and she'll want to answer them. On the other she knows her son is freaked out by all this. Can't wait until mother and son sit down together to talk about this!

*needs to stop mothering people*

*needs to get dressed and do some work!*

[self_preserving]

Lol, I've confused you. Well see I figure, because Liz has told her not to worry about Luke for now, she's okay with that for the moment because she knows both Liz and the Brig will look after him. So she has the opportunity to just worry about herself for a bit. Which is what all parents seem to want, particularly single parents.

And yes, until then... I've shipped him off to Clyde's. Go me.

*needs to get dressed and do some work!*

You really do. Come online so I can yell at you.

[almosee]

This fic is so fantastic, I was so excited to see it pop up on my flist. I love you so much for it, and really, really cannot wait to see more of it :D

[self_preserving]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying it. ♥

Oh hurray! I read this when I got up this morning, but I'm just now getting back to be able to respond. Poor Doctor, trying to figure it out.

And the conversation with Luke was priceless!

Why do I think the third signal is NOT the TARDIS as the Doctor is suggesting. He knows something he's not telling Luke. Can't wait to see how the conversation with Sarah goes...

Love it as always! :)

[self_preserving]

*bounces* I was waiting for you. No joke. I was looking at the usual suspects reviewing and thinking 'hmm... someone's missing'.

Why do I think the third signal is NOT the TARDIS as the Doctor is suggesting. He knows something he's not telling Luke.

You're the only person who's picked me up on that. But how could it possibly be anything else? We've got the only two Gallifreyans in existence, if Donna goes all Time Lord her brain will go 'splodey... makes sense to him that it would be the TARDIS.

Thank you muchly ♥

[spydurwebb]

Awwww, it's nice to be missed...I think. ;-)

Well until just a bit ago, the Doctor thought he was the ONLY one - and now, there are two. After all, like you say, Sarah "smelled human" until now. I have my suspicions, hee hee, so I can't wait to see how it plays out.

More please...now please! :-)

[self_preserving]

Hmm... interesting...

I'm currently 1,400 words into the next chapter. We'll see how fast I can get through it for you.
