I was delighted to see another chapter of this wonderful story posted! Each chapter is a polished gem; and the whole thing is a marvel! It is very difficult to wait for each update, but then, once you post, it always turns out to have been worth it. Thank you, thank you for continuing this!

[rallalon]

Aww, thank you! I do try to update quickly, but I'm an unfortunately slow writer.

I'm still utterly in love with this story. I absolutely love the relationship between "John" and Rose; it's growing so beautifully, like it did with her and the Doctor. You've got the lovely bit of tension of how they might be in love, and are they going to do something about it just right. Perfect!

[rallalon]

Aww, thank you!

A question from the curious: are John and the Doctor separate people to you? (The "John" quotation marks have me wondering and I generally want to know what people think about this anyway.)

The immediacy of this story never fails to astound me. I am always sucked right into it from the first words and I am right there, sitting across from their table or walking along with them as they search through the stalls for the watch or strolling along being one of the people that looks from him to her, to their hands and back to them again

[rallalon]

Oh, wow, thank you.

When you were describing the water on the table and the way the wood sparkled, even that was sensual. And every bit of their hand holding is becoming ridiculously erotic as I wait for something to happen between them.

Those are, remarkably enough, the two details of this chapter that I had to go out and find people to talk to about. "What kind of tables are there in Thai restaurants?" "This is awkward, but can I hold your hand on a table for a minute?" Oh, the things being a writer lets you get away with. But, back to the point, I'm surprised in a not-surprised way about how the water came across. When I get into self-literary-analysis mode, it starts to look like thirst pops ups when he wants Rose around the most. It's kinda fun and now I've started to purposely write it that way.

Is it ever going to be resolved or are you going to have to write another one shot to do something with it all?Well, with ten or so more chapters to come, we're about halfway through - not exactly the time for me to spoil the ending
