Oh hun this is beautiful. You've got them nailed, right from the start. I love it!

Lol, I'm glad it wasn't too incoherent! Felt a little all over the place during writing, but hearing you say you love it makes me feel significantly better! *hugs* Thank you!

'...the sort of - don't know, softness? - you gave Ten II that made him like a cross between Ten and a teddy bear.'

LOL. You have no idea how that made me snort my tea. Again. Your comments always seem to have this effect, Miss Beann!

'Of course, that was probably those pain meds talking, right? ;)'

On a more rational and less tea-snorty note, yep! I'm glad you picked up on that, otherwise my reading of Ten II would be 'omg psycho hippie!' or something along those lines. xD Fail!

'(We're to the point in the alt!fandom reading where I'm not sure if it's even the ship making me all melt-y arounf the edges or your writing ... :D)'

And that comment has just officially made my day, and pretty much erased exam!woe. :) *EPIC HUGS*

That was lovely. I definitely enjoy stories where TenII/Rose have a bit of a struggle finding their way together, because I just don't see them falling too easily into anything like their old life.

And I don't think this was too wander-y at all.

I can't really picture their relationship beginning without some sort of struggle, so I'm glad that someone agrees with me! :) I'm glad you enjoyed it, and didn't think it jumped about too much. ^.~

Thanks for reading!

This is lovely, warm and sweet. The struggle and growth is very believable.

the_magpye May 17 2009, 00:29:11 UTC

It was the believability I was going for, so I'm really glad you said that! :) Thank you, and I'm happy you enjoyed it.

I want to hug this fic for how honest it feels. This is the kind of thing I imagine them having to struggle with. Brilliantly executed.

the_magpye May 17 2009, 00:32:28 UTC

The fic is very open to hugging, I'm sure! :) And tbh, the Ten II/Rose relationship isn't one that would work - believably - without some kind of struggle from one of them. Unless your name happens to be Russell T Davies, of course. xD

I'm very glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment. Very much appreciated! ^.^
