Author's Notes:  For Challenge 50.  Based on juliet316 ’s prompt:

"Of course I know about every TV show that's ever been made. Even the alien ones."'

It’s so mundane, but not at the same time. )

Well now we know where RTD got the idea for the Meta-crisis for.

BTW, my smile went really big as soon as I saw the show Rose picked was Farscape. Stupid idiots at Syfy for cancelling it so soon. At least we Scapers got a mini-series out of it.

Very bittersweet ending, knowing what's to come for Ten/Rose. But still very lovely. Thanks for using my prompt. :-D

I adored your prompt, but it was so hard to pick a show for them to watch! But I'd like to think that Rose, normally an X-Factor sort of girl, would totally become a secret sci-fi lover after her travels with the Doctor. (Or, at least, appreciate the hotness that is Ben Browder. ;) )

GUH. I want to hug this. Bittersweet twist of the foreshadowing knife at the end, but that just makes it sweeter *now*. Cuddling on the couch to SciFi = best. ever. Perfect for them.

Sci-fi cuddling = TOTAL DREAM DATE.

I always thought RTD was a Farscape fan. Lovely little story.

I hope he was, along with his Whedon fannishness. It would just make me love him more. :)

That's so weird... it actually made me cry. And for some reason, this line is just... excellent: He’s a talker, especially when he feels the need to correct the exposition, but when things are funny his chest rattles with laughter and when they’re sad, he grows perfectly still, the beat of two hearts echoing.

You are so nice! And as for watching TV with the Doctor, I'd like to think that he's a total talker (like I am...no bias ;) ), but then becomes wibbly at just the right moments.

Oh, he so definitely does. I can just see Rose catching him with a tear in his eye at Titanic, or stuff like that. :P

I NEED THIS FAN FIC RIGHT NOW. In fact, it should be a series:

Rose and the Doctor Watch...Titanic!

Rose and the Doctor Watch...Forrest Gump!

Rose and the Doctor Watch...The Notebook!

Lots of holding back tears during the sad parts and, of course, deliciously awkward UST whenever there is sexy times. ;)
