Title: kings are cowards Author: Mary ( stillxmyxheart) Rating: PG Genre: AU, Drama, Angst Word Count: 2,678 Characters: Rose, Ten, Jackie, Jack (Rose/Ten) Summary: Heroes come in all forms.
A/N: Fic number five for Challenge 18, "AU", at then_theres_us... this one's a little different, it sort of got away from me in the process of writing, but I think I like it anyway XD
He nods and places his hand on the back of her neck, pulling her to him for a searing kiss, the meaning of which is clear to both of them though neither of them will say it out loud.

10:51p Non spoilery (I hope) question reactions to regeneration.
*I say Non spoilery because I still haven't been able to see Waters of Mars and I'm trying to avoid spoilers for *sniffles* the last two specials/S5*
I was posting an answer to a discussion on betterwiththree concerning fic with the Eleventh Doctor in it, and that got me to wondering, since I'm still having trouble accepting Matt Smith as the Doctor. So I as this is my first regeneration so to speak (I came in the door through Torchwood first, and fell for Ten first, but I love Nine, and recently Four just as much), I thought I would put the question out there to Old (and New) Who fans alike.
When your Doctor regenerated did you have trouble accepting the new Doctor? Were you resentful because your Doctor left? Or did you fall just as much for the new Doctor as you did 'your' or 'first' Doctor?
current mood: curious

7:26p Why I'd make a lousy companion...
Midway through Genesis of the Daleks, the Doctor (as played by Tom Baker) has the opportunity to destroy all of the Daleks in one fell swoop. He has a wonderful soliloquy about whether or not he has the right to destroy an entire species, even if they're the Daleks.
If I were there, the conversation would have been a lot shorter:
Doctor: holds bomb wires in each hand Dare I have the right?
Me: Yup! yoinks wires away from the Doctor, blows up Dalek nursery
I suspect I'd have gotten along a little better with Nine...
