Ineloquent review... now!

I just. Awwwww. This is so sweet & painful to read... especially, the two of them thinking "of all the people that might never be saved". That's *three* endless things in a few lines.

Oh, this is very,very nice. Thank you.

This is going in my memories ... just quiet, and lovely - and you had them perfectly from the series, you really did, to the point where I could imagine expressions and tones of voice.

I have to say, too, I absolutely loved your description of Eleven:

"What were you thinking about?" he said, looking at her with those soft, dark eyes. He was an unearthly, beautiful creature sometimes. His eyes had looked out across all of time and space; he was eternally young and incalculably old, kind, and terrifying, and strange. Amy would never say this out loud but a small part of her was disappointed that she had not made him up inside her head - because when he had turned out to be real that was the proof that she was not as intelligent as she had once thought she might be; no, she was not bright enough to dream up someone like the Doctor.

That whole paragraph was perfect. I want to frame it.

Lovely.

That was so beautiful. You really captured them well, sadness and pain and all. It was lovely.
