Guh! You can't just leave us like this!!!!

And that last line? Sucker punch to the gut.

It's okay! Really! I meant it to be introspective but not like, tragic. There's one more chapter plus epilogue. All will be well.

Where's the rest??? I scrolled down but its not there?!? This has been a fantastic journey and I hope it doesn't end there. Hopefully Pete has worked his magic and the Doctor and Rose will be ok. Then they can get on with living this wonderful life they have. I'm a little perturbed by the last paragraph , but I'm hoping you'll be nice and let them have a bit of happy now *fingers crossed*

There's still one more chapter left, plus an epilogue. Fear not!

I've been reading! I can't remember if I've commented before or not, but I look forward to this story every day!

Thank you for leaving a note and for reading1

So, let me see if I understand this. The orb was blocking the Doctor's sense of the Universe and of Time? And now that it's destroyed, he has those senses again? If that's so, I saw the last paragraph as kind of wonderful. He can feel again - that must be a relief to him, even after what they've just gone through. I hope I'm right.

I absolutely adore this story, and all your stories. There will be more after this one is complete, right? Please? Pretty please? I have brownies...and I'm not afraid to use them!

Yes, you've got it! Which is why I say I was going for introspective but not tragic or sad. It is good. Though the Doctor's had a bit of a time of it and probably needs to do some serious thinking about his impulses.

Yes, I will keep writing, and I think I'm even setting up a little 'verse here in this story to which I can return when the mood strikes.

I think your writing is excellent, and admire the planning and forethought that went into the fast, consistent production of each chapter. You gave the internet a high volume of classy, well-crafted writing at a remarkably fast pace. And you did it for free, without thought of reward, for the sake of the craft and to please a few scattered strangers online. For that alone, I am very grateful.

Also, it has been a delirious and charming ride, and I have enjoyed it very much.

I will follow your career with interest!

Thank you so much! I learned a valuable lesson with this story, one that seems obvious and probably everyone else already knows: If you outline the basic action and central themes of your story before you start writing, writing it gets easier! I know, SHOCKING! But I'd honestly never done that before, so now I know.

I just looked and this blasted thing is currenly 119 pages in Word (I write in google docs which doesn't give you a page count). I don't think I've ever written anything that long in my life. so I'm glad people enjoyed my little experiment in epic longness.
