You just broke me. I have to go away and think about this for a minute. Seriously, this is brilliant.

[poshlil]

Oh no! *grabs pieces of Lil to stick back together*

No, really? Really? Thank you. So much.

(Totally unrelated - i adore Tim Minchin. Just had to tell someone that.)

[poshlil]

Have i really broken you that much? You haven't asked any questions at all yet. And i thought you had your pencil sharpened and ready to go. ;)

[lounge_lily]

You really, really have. I had to print out both pieces at work so I could try and formulate some sort of response that consisted of more than GUH! There is a response coming; how coherent it will be is open for debate.

I loved both of these. Brilliantly heart rending. You've got it down perfectly. I can see this through both of their eyes and it makes me feel so angry and sad and hurt all at the same time.

Amazing job.

[poshlil]

*wails at your icon*

Thank you so much! :D I blame the JE confidential for instilling the angst in me.

[sweetsyren]

OMG your Icon too! <3

You're a braver soul than me. I've not been able to watch the confidential.

[poshlil]

It's Dana's creation, not mine. ;)

It was either that or watch JE itself - i needed references for the fix it i'm in the middle of. Confidential seemed less threatening. And even then it had me in tears.

Whoa.

That was a dark and fascinating ride (no pun intended). I really like this companion piece, illuminating exactly what's going on in Donna's mind more than "Not With a Bang". Very powerful, very potent emotions, bitter, but fascinating and with just that glimmer at the end that things could be all right again one day. "Not With a Bang" was a trailer and this is the full show.

Can't say enough. Wow.

[poshlil]

(pun not taken, but i giggled anyway)

Thank you so much! I always thought there was a whole lot more going on with that ending than Ten being his usual "woez, i have to make sacrifices again to save the world". Angst and porn are so far from my normal writing genres that i wasn't at all sure i could do these, but the bunnies kept biting. So thank you again for your kind review! It's shut them up for a while.

Oh, this is a fantastic companion piece - Dark!Donna is interesting!

I like that she kept some of the memories/time lord consciousness. And the ending is just - wow.

[poshlil]

Hee, thank you gorgeous! Dark!Donna is my new crack. I think i'm in love with her in a serious way.

I think she would have. Just a little bit. *bends canon till it snaps*

[indaydreams]

That was just so heartbreakingly beautiful. Wow.

[poshlil]

Aww thank you so much! :)
