Yes, Nine/Rose fluff! :)

You also made math sound fun which I think you should recieve some kind of reward for. I'm really not a math person, kind of like Rose here.

The ending with the drawing was great and kind of really adorable.

Great job.

Thank you!! I figured a lot of people wouldn't be into math (ngl, I was really hoping the subject matter wouldn't be a turn-off!!), so I'm glad to hear that it came across as fun! =D I'm glad you liked it! =D

This combines my love of Doctor Who with my love of mathematics. So I am in like double-love right now :D This was especially good!

Woo-hoo another math fan! It took me a while to learn to love it but yeah, by the time I got to calculus, I was hooked =) I'm glad you liked the fic! =D

AGH. I LOVE MATH AND I LOVE THIS FIC.

Loved both your Nine and Rose. I think you did a lovely job capturing Rose's frustration as well as Nine being sensitive about her frustration. This fic made me want to do some math. (and I'm bad at math!)

(I totally wish someone would draw that drawing!)

I'm another who strugged with anything other than basic maths. You had the Doctor explain this in such beautiful simple terms and I loved the references to the famous artists etc using it to create their masterpieces. Your Nine is just perfect, a rough diamond but his gentleness to Rose just makes me sigh contentedly. It's a wonderful piece, sweet and very cleverly written. Putting it in my lj memories.

Thank you so much! And thank you for mem'ing it! I really was trying to show Nine as a diamond in the rough here so I'm very happy that you use that phrase to describe him here! =D
