I can't say enough how much I love this. I don't think I've been moved as often by repeated watchings of Doomsday as I have been by repeated readings of this letter.
It's powerful, ain't it? This fic makes me tear up every time I read it.
As well as you channel Ten's voice usually, you nailed Rose here.
That's 'cause of you and the other betas kicking my arse for me 'til I had it right ;)
I love the pacing of the letter, like she had to write a bit before she got to the real place, the place of raw emotion. Makes it so genuine.
I had to get it just right; wanted to make it believable - having her pretty much break down in the middle of it is probably realistic. I see this letter as having been written in bits, as and when she could bear to get the words written down.
