Wow!

This is amazingly heartbreaking. As someone else said, it does seem as though something went horribly wrong with the Arch - I can't believe the TARDIS would've ever set the Doctor up with that backstory. Poor Doctor. Poor Rose and Jack!

On the other hand, as we discussed in the comments on the fic I wrote for you . . . the comfort doesn't really work if you don't crank the hurt to 11 first!

I'm glad the chapter's having the desired effect.:)

Yes, poor all of them. :( You wouldn't believe how guilty writing this is making me feel...

Wow. Way to start off with angst to the hilt! I can't wait to find out what's gone wrong and how in the world they'll help him.

*g* Everyone seems to find this story so angsty... I wonder why...

Thank you for commenting!

I would never have imagined a fob-watched Nine the way you've written him here... And now I have no idea why. (Well, besides the way you're brilliant and I'm not, lol.) So far this is gritty and painful and it has an edge of truth. I'm a little scared to read the rest, because I know it's gonna hurt, but I'm looking forward to it too. First chapter- edge of the seat already. :):):)

Wow. That's quite the scene you've set. Can't wait to see how it all comes out, not to mention why the Chameleon Arch made him into a bum.

Maybe it was Jack's fault? Jack always really liked the Doctor's bum... *g*

Thanks for commenting! Glad you're intrigued. :)

Oh my goodness, this is great! The poor Doctor. I can't wait for more. This is such a unique premise; I can't wait to see how they got here - and especially how they get out of it.

Aw, thanks. I'm flattered. I'm not the first author to fobwatchify (<- yes, it's a word!) Nine, though, and besides, that was Sahiya's idea, anyway.

(I do take credit for what it turned him into and the consequences, though. *g*)

Thank you for commenting!
