It's lovely to see you try a reunion. They're quite difficult aren't they?
They are indeed; the only reason I'm doing it at all is because the damn plot-bunny wouldn't let me be until I did!
I did love this - I could see him so clearly: "She looked into his eyes—in him, always much more the fabled “windows into the soul” than with other people she knew—and saw shining there the abiding love for her that she knew now had always been there before."
You're right, it pretty much sums him up; this and the 'looking-glass' motif (borrowed from Lewis Carroll) are some of my most favourite bits of this so far.
It just felt a bit unfinished, so I hope you do a bit more!
Oh, there is more (the Doctor has something he needs to say, and that's just for starters); I just have to write it.
