It baffles me

[preserved_ginger]

I honestly am baffled how people can jump so easily from being a Ten/Rose fangirl to being a Ten II/Rose fangirl without appearing to bat an eyelid.

Another thing I find distinctly off-putting is the idea that everything in the garden’s rosy in terms of Ten II/Rose and their relationship and that they’re both immediately gonna fall head-over-heels in love with each other. One kiss does not madly in love two people make, even a kiss like that one. Meh.

I think karenor above has said it better than I could.

But at the same time, I still have my issues with the ship. I still write AU fic and my post JE fix-it fic universe involves Ten II actually being the Fourteenth Doctor because that fixes my issues (which are chiefly about Ten I appearing not to grow as a character, only to slide back - and Fourteen can have emotionally grown since he was Ten; and Ten I being left alone - if he's Fourteen he's still stuck alone for a period of time, but *I'll* live in the knowledge that things get better).

So while to me, Ten II is as much my Doctor as Ten I is (and right now I think I like him *more* because he's not such a tremendous idiot, although I think Ten I needs hugs more than Ten II), it's still a little tricky because I want to work my way around canon!
