I'm glad you're not mad anymore :) *hugs*
My thing is ... I will always have my doubts with my skills because... well.. I haven't had the best track record I guess. Literally when the guild went down for the first time. I looked on Iwaku (when I couldn't find you anywhere and hadn't seen Nica or Magic for a week or two) and I was literally told (You're not advanced literate. You're low-class literate. Sorry but take some courses and then you'll be good) and well I'm fragile. VERY fragile. so getting that message? That REALLY hurt me. (especially because I have taken classes. its just been awhile) and that in turn damaged my confidence (even more than it already was.) So taking on Nine, a character that I haven't really had experience with his voice. I got scared and the doubt really started to sink. I mean REALLY started to sink in to where I was like "can i do this? am I doing this right? maybe I'm not? Maybe she's not telling me I'm horrible to be nice?" and yeah... X_x; it wasn't pretty what was playing through my head. I guess i'm just a fragile writer. *hugs* but I'm glad you haven't given up on me. Because I agree it would SUCK to lose you as a writer and a friend because you're awesome Maura :D
I agree, Nine loved Rose so much, as I said on facebook. It shows when he gave his life for her. Ten took the memories, that love that Nine held for her and went with it. He loved her so much because that's how much Nine loved her if not more. Rose was their everything and when Ten lost her, he left her with a part of himself at the end which I thought was beautiful. She had her own version of the Doctor that could age with her and love her when the full Time Lord Doctor couldn't. I know Nine would've done the same thing there. Well he would've said "I love you" rather than have his double do it. But i can understand that it would've been even more painful that way if it came from him rather than the meta-crisis Doctor. and I'm just rambling on about the Doctors and their Love for Rose hehe ^^; sorry.
