Rose already knows he will keep her secrets. Because she understood even then that though she’d let all the childish affection she could muster for the boy rush in at that moment - and still feels it now, though divided from him - it will never enough. Not for him, and certainly not for her. I loved this bit, it perfectly describes Rose's relationship with Mickey, in any universe.

“It’s a shame he’s married,” clucks Jackie, returning to her examination of the portrait’s winning smile. Thoughtlessly, she taps her teaspoon against her saucer, “or he would’ve made a smart match for our Rose. Would anyone care for more ginger snaps?” I had suspected who this was before but at this moment I was sure :D

Besides her resourcefulness, Rose is also the kind of girl who never learned how to back down from challenges posed by her inner monologue. This! This is so Rose and I love it ( ... )

Awww, thank you! I love their relationship a lot, and Mickey taking Rose's side in all this, despite his prejudices, is quite a testament to their friendship.

Heehee! Oh, the Master ♥. I couldn't resist!

Wow, thank you so much for such a kind comment! I'm absolutely thrilled to hear you're enjoying this, and I hope the rest will not disappoint :).

Just... gyuhhhhhh. I love the delicious *Italian-ness* of it all-- it's something that has really become unimportant to most productions of R&J, and I think it lends a wonderful atmosphere.

Also: HECK YEAH HAROLD SAXON. The twists, the turns! Turning the Prince from the one sane person in Verona to the most insane person ever? AWESOME SO AWESOME. And Ianto! He's so cute and smarmy and OMG the vacuum scene. I was dying. So them.

*bounce bounce bounce*

The wonder and glory of all of this has made me greedy. NEEDS MOAR DONNA.

Don't forget the part where American girls frequently get mistaken for Italian pop stars, just like in the Lizzie McGuire movie.

LOL OH LOL THAT MOVIE. I must've been the only girl at that slumber party who was all "DNW DNW" when Lizzie and Gordo kiss at the end. I always felt he could've done a lot better, TBH.

*BOUNCES WITH GLEE* ♥ :D

Amazing, I love all the sly little references slipped in casually to both DW & R&J' s canon stories, as well as just the beauty of this story all on its own. And I want more. Preferably yesterday.

Awww, thank you so much ♥! I'm so glad to hear you're enjoying it!

If I had a TARDIS, I would definitely bring the next part to you yesterday, but as I do not... *sigh*. But it will be up soon, I promise ;).

Oh, he's romancing her with words of seduction and I absolutely adore it! Kissing also helps.

“But you’re not the least bit curious to know the name of the person you’re currently sneaking around behind your parents’ backs for.” - Yes! I absolutely do want to know, please.

Ianto Jones, he IS the man!

Jackie Tyler talking politics, perish the thought!

Saxon, dare I say I smell trouble?
