I find that you making me wait for more is cruel and unusual punishment. Also, I love how well you interpret the Rose/Jackie/Doctor relationship.

[gin_and_ashes]

Thank you! I'm a big fan of Jackie, and love her relationship with the Doctor. I miss Jackie almost as much as I miss Ten and Rose.

This is really intense-- I love the suspenseful atmosphere, and the invasion-from-two-fronts concept. Can't wait for the last bit!

[gin_and_ashes]

I'm glad you're enjoying it. Thanks again!

Oooh, telepathic alien cane toad fish! Exciting! Love all the cloak-and-dagger running around hiding from police, & looking forward to seeing the Doctor's solution, as the Ude Shur sound particularly nasty.

Especially loved this line:
Or perhaps, he thought as he scanned the back door and disabled the first of many alarms, he was just seeking a justification for his imminent act of larceny. LOL

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Oh, and:

This will be the name of my next band. ;)

"And on the way, they'll be drunk and looking for a fight. Any human in their way will be a target."

"Oh, God. It'll be like England's lost at football."

"Exactly."

LMAO

I love the interaction between Rose/Jackie. Very in-character and believable. And, of course, the mention of Donna.

[gin_and_ashes]

Oh, Donna. I miss her so much. And Jackie. I would kill for some Big Finish adventures just so we could get some more interaction between Jackie and the Doctor.

Thank you!
