Hee, Susan hiding behind the sofa! I can understand Susan wanting to leave Earth after spending two regenerations there.

Thank you for commenting. I think Susan would've hid behind the sofa.

This is an unusual sort of fic, but really good. I like it. (Although, is the Rani ever this sympathetic??) Nice work, though.

I second that praise. (though the Rani can approximate sympathy, particularly when its in line with her reasons)

Thank you.

I think if it's someone that the Rani actually cares about she'd be sympathetic. Also I'm thinking this is perhaps a different regeneration of her then we've seen on TV.

Anyways, thank you and I'm glad you liked it.

What a lovely look at Susan, both her past and her future--very cool.

You got them both down pat and perfect.

I imagine Susan's quandry, if left alone, could all-too-easily have ossified into the state of tradition-loving that the Doctor and Rani hate about Gallifrey. YAY to the Rani for rescuing Susan from that.

this was a charming story; thank you for this.

ps: photos, eh. good thing the TARDIS is bigger on the inside, given Time Lord lifespans. ;)
*applauds you for the detail*

I'm glad you liked it.

I wonder what happened to Susan, did she ever leave Earth? Go back to Gallifrey? I think it'd be easy for her to just stay there. When I got your prompt the idea of the Rani picking Susan up from Earth just stuck in my head though.

(My personal canon is that there's at least one room of the TARDIS dedicated to pictures. Perhaps something off of the library.)

Susan and the Rani probably went off to have lots of mad adventures as they figured out how to live with each other.

Thank you and I'm glad you liked it.
