Summary: When two people are reminiscent of a Shakespearean couple, friends and family are liable to borrow from the Bard himself to bring them together.

I've waited to comment on this so that I could read it all several times and absorb all the beauty of it. I love the changes in speed, from the early moments of panic to the urgency of the Doctor and Donna and then their relief at Jenny's safety, and the gradual unfolding of the moments with Lee, the TARDIS and Strackman Lux ( ... )

You chose a very appropriate icon picture for your comment. Partners in burden-sharing...

Aw... You're going to make me blush from the praise! (shuffles feet) Thanks... :D

You should like the reactions... It'll make that first part a bit bipolar. (I just heard that that word isn't being used anymore. It was so convenient! Damn the newest changes to the DSM!)

(clears throat) Anyway, thank you for reviewing!

Choosing icons is one of the fun reasons for commenting. ;-)

All praise is deserved and very well earned!

I'm sure there will be a lot of fun in it, and there's nothing wrong with dramatic mood shifts in a fic. This one has it, too, particularly between the very early MAAD-heavy scenes and these end ones that are more episode-based.

And you are more than welcome! *hugs you*

I'm talking about drastic mood changes within a chapter. Like from moment to moment... It'll help to have the grammar of TV be so established. As it was for the previous chapters... ;D

Thank you! One of these days, I might just start believing it. (I can see more reasons I relate to Donna more than any of the other New Who companions...)

Ah lovely conclusion, SO GLAD to know more on the way!

I LOVED when Jenny was the one to snap her fingers, and excellent use of Lee, bless 'im!

Well, the Doctor wouldn't have heard it, so it was up to Jenny to try it. Granted us the lovely image of the daughter showing up the daddy...! ;D

In the end, yeah, I had to use Lee. Worked as an added push for the Doctor, I thought.

Working on the outline. Will see how soon I can produce. :D

Just such a lovely story, I know I'm late in reading it, but I needed to let you know how much I enjoyed it!
You somehow came from matchmaking to a deeply emotional version of the Library EPs I'd have loved to see. Brilliant :)

Oh, thank you! I was rereading for inspiration, and stumbled across your comment. So sorry I didn't acknowledge it until now.

cannibalilly December 9 2013, 09:54:51 UTC

No probs ;) You're welcome!

Aw what a sweet ending!! Though lee's actions were a mystery. Did CaL create multiple versions of the people she saved to move around to different partners so they thought they were having new experiences? Either way I loved how you wrapped it up and gave the library a far better telling than I ever thought possible! I cant wait to devour the rest of your stories. *dashes on to the sequel*

tkel_paris December 28 2015, 21:00:56 UTC

That's a scary thought. Good question. Or she suppressed their "memory" of the "experiences" when things started going south. Either way... that episode had a lot of ground that could've been covered and wasn't.

Well, may want to go on to other stories. I still need to finish the sequel. :*) But thank you for enjoying this one so much!
