Becoming part of someone's "head canon" always delights me to no end- thank you. And to have the note included? Downright inspiring! So happy you enjoyed it ;)

I absolutely love this! It's adorable and I think it's wonderful that that's how he got his human name, and her being just as excited as him is so sweet!
I caught a typo or two, I hope you don't mind if I point them out...
"their own very young son was *one* already one of the most notorious troublemakers"
and "Our people know it as Sol *iii*."
I really hope you continue this! I was trying to find the previous parts since this is listed as part 4, which tag is this story under?

Oh, and this is definitely going in my headcanon too. You somehow have a knack for writing stories that by their sheer brilliance end up there ;)

Yea! It's so heart- warming when someone gushes over one of my stories.

THANK YOU so much for the typo- check. I don't have a beta (too impatient for one, I think), so though I triple- check something, I always miss things that I've reread at this point at least 4 times. Help in this area is always highly appreciated! (by the way- sorry it took so long to respond to your lovely comments, but real life and frenzied other chapters from different stories kept getting in the way of my emails- but they all were highly valued and I am so grateful for each one!)

This is actually only part of my "You're Welcome My Dear" tag, and as of now is a one- shot. However, I did purposely leave them beginning their Earth journey should I later get struck with an idea to expand this further.

I cannot express the smiles you tend to bring to my face with your lovely compliments. Thank you! You have no idea how much I needed to read your encouragement this week!
So happy you're enjoying these!

Ooooh, this just wonderful!!! I especially love you going through the first names of the actors to have played the Doctor--it's quite fitting :-) Definitely putting this into my head-canon, too!

Thank you! Do you know, you're the first person to comment on the actor- name thing? I actually thought that part sort of funny, but you're the only one who's mentioned it- but I'm glad you liked that bit. And it's always so exciting to make someone's headcanon! Thank again!

Interesting! I wonder if they just didn't comment on it, or if they didn't even notice. I thought it was extremely clever :-)

Well, thank you. I thought so too.
