She waits for him. On a cold beach in Norway she waits, and even before she sees the ghostly outline of her Doctor she knows he’s there.

He’s inside the TARDIS, burning up a sun just for her. She’s not sure whether to be appalled or flattered by this but mainly she just wants him to be solid and real, in front of her.

She reaches for him, aching for his touch.

“Can I t-?”

He shakes his head and her heart drops. “You can’t touch me.” But then he’s jiggering the sonic again and reaching out a tentative, experimental hand. “But I can touch you, I think.”

When his hand slides against her cheek she gasps softly, tears threatening. His touch is insubstantial, a whisper of skin against hers that she may or may not be imagining.

It’s enough.

He looks at her so tenderly then, like she’s going to shatter beneath his touch and he wants to preserve the memory of her fragile self in his mind’s eye.

“Rose Tyler,” he says softly and then he laughs sadly. “Rose TylerHe brushes his thumb over her cheek and she leans into it, savouring the not- ( ... )

He looks mildly stunned but then his expression darkens even as he smiles. “Quite right too.” He says, glib. Rose is suddenly and irrationally angry.

“No!” she snaps. “No you’re meant to say it back.”

He gapes at her, clueless as always and then she reaches for him, insubstantial and flawed though he might be and then they’re touching, really touching with mouth pressed to mouth and fingers twining...

At the end of all things (as two universes shudder in protest and reality begins to tear apart at the seams) they are together. And before their very atoms are ripped apart and dissolved into nothingness he puts his lips to the shell of her ear and he whispers,

“I love you too.”

Wow...that was just...wow. I actually wanted her to say yes, where as usually if someone writes this concept I want Rose to yell at him (and maybe give him a good Tyler slap) but here you somehow managed to flip my emotions on their ear. Well done.

It's a tricky one, this situation but I'm glad this worked for you.

Re: Here at the end of all things professor_spork May 6 2010, 18:21:48 UTC

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME. WHY. *curls into ball, whimpers*

(Beautiful.)

Re: Here at the end of all things sapphire_child May 7 2010, 00:01:06 UTC

It's not ME. It's my evil, evil muse! *cuddles you*

Thank you though, and I'm glad you liked it.

OMG O_____________O

The first one with eleven was fantastic, but this one .....wow, just WOW *DIES*

Re: Here at the end of all things sapphire_child May 15 2010, 02:06:39 UTC

Thank you.

Re: Here at the end of all things coast May 7 2010, 14:10:32 UTC

UGH. THANKS A LOT. (No, seriously, thanks a lot-- I live for angst. ;)) <3

Re: Here at the end of all things sapphire_child May 15 2010, 02:08:17 UTC

Oh gosh, for a minute there I thought you were being sarcastic and really hated it :P I'm glad you don't! xoxo

Re: Here at the end of all things teruel_a_witch May 7 2010, 17:39:41 UTC

Hee, you know, I don't actually care if the realities are ending as long as they are together at this so this WAS AWESOME *cackles as an evil shipper she is* I don't think I've met an ending like this and I always like to be surprised (in a good shippy way ;D))
Lol, I actually think RTD wanted to do it this way (because no way his muse is less of "a psychotic angst-whore" than yours ;)) but the producers didn't let him and he now envies you could ;D

“No!” she snaps. “No you’re meant to say it back.”
THIS. HELL TO THE YES. HE WAS MEANT TO SAY IT I HATE YOU RTD AND I LOVE YOU ELLIE :D

Oh. Now that...that is...well the idea takes her breath away! That he would risk not one universe but two...

GUH, that's a kinda turn on, isn't it? XD

And I still adore that manip ♥

Re: Here at the end of all things sapphire_child May 15 2010, 02:10:21 UTC

I was going to go the other way but then I went "you know what? Stuff it. I kinda WANT him to choose her and make the universe's explode" *insert evil cackle here*

I still kinda adore that manip too ^_^

Thanks for reaading :D

I have the original of that manip with just him touching her cheek if you'd like it without the pics of Ten at the bottom? You can find it here.

LOL. Well we could pretend that he just kind of...fixed everything again afterwards if you'd like :D

Hee, thanks for reading! So glad you liked it!
