-Hmm, I can't say I ever thought back on this during all of those tea drinking scenes, though I guess kind of always thought the punchline of this piece was that the Doctor was so distracted by sex and Rose that he didn't notice he'd put spoiled milk in his tea? Though in hindsight perhaps there should be a follow-up to this with tea at Jackie's, lol.
-This is definitely a very sexy look for the Doctor (possibly only improved with brainy-specs).
"A Supernatural Excursion"
I think this is actually the first time I've read through this fic properly. I've never seen Supernatural, and I think that put me off a bit. I think I read up until they actually start hunting the, uh, lupine-wavelength haemovariform/werewolf. But I'm glad I've read it now :)
-Hmmm, in cannon I guess I always assumed they were talking about Rose as Bad Wolf. Despite that the Doctor "took it out of her," I always got the impression that the effects were long reaching. For me, Bad Wolf is a nice way to explain why the Doctor and Rose always make it out of so many close calls: she ensured that they'd always be okay during her brief stint as the Bad Wolf. The beauty of fanfiction is that it can mean whatever, though it always makes me think of TheLastWord's Something!verse (on whofic, I feel like her lj name is different). I feel like she basically molded that series around that line.
-Hmm, I think I dismissed her carrying a gun based on the fact that it's a crossover fic. Though now that you've pointed it out it does seem a little out of character. Especially if they're trying to get the poor thing to go with them. I'm not sure the Doctor would want it to think it was being escorted at gun-point. Perhaps some other type of insurance would be more in character? UV flashlight perhaps, lol? Something mostly harmless.
-Jealous Doctor is amazing in this fic. He's humorous and heartbreaking all at the same time. I think “I’m over 900 years old and a Time Lord and this is still all very new. Forgive me if sometimes I think you might want someone closer to your own age…and species.” is my favorite line in this whole fic, and the conversation that accompanies it is brilliant. You do a really nice job of capturing the different sides of the Doctor, not only in this part but the conversation about being lucky at the end too.
