Summary: There's not much the Doctor hasn't done with Jack over the years
Author’s Note: chatona requested Jack/Doctor... over the years.


There's not much the Doctor hasn't done with Jack over the years. He's adventured with him, fought aliens with him, got captured and escaped with him, faced death with him – in the days before death was something Jack could come back from, when it meant so much more.

He's visited the far corners of space, and the end of the universe, with him.

He's killed Jack, and let Jack die, and he's run away from Jack, and he's come back for Jack.

He's shagged him senseless, and been shagged senseless, in more ways and more times than he can remember.

He's let Jack get tortured by the Master, horribly, to death, for a year.

He's relied on Jack, and been saved by Jack, and he's shared things he hasn't with anybody else.

It occurs to him, belatedly, that there's one thing that he hasn't done.

He hasn't said "Thank you."

Oh, WOW.

VERY, VERY, NICE.

[unfeathered]

Thank you! :-) I like it when I get 'wow's! *g*

*loves*

I'm all flaily now. And bouncy. More bouncy than usual, even. 'cause OMG it's so pretty and it's so true and gorgeous and I feel sorry for Jack and I'm happy at the same time and *flails more*

's very, very pretty. Thank you! ♥ *hugs fic and holds it close*

[unfeathered]

Oh, I'm glad you love it so much! You would have got it sooner, but I couldn't decide how to end it. I wasn't sure 'thank you' was the right thing. But I left it for a bit, and it seemed to work, so here you are!

*flails some more* I love it very much, yeah. 's gorgeous, so how could I not? ♥
And really, I didn't mind the wait. so it's all good *bounces*

I think thank you was actually perfect 'cause, as has been pointed out already, the Doctor didn't show Jack any gratitude at all so far. So it works really well *beams* *bounces some more* :D

Thank you ♥

Awww, nice. You know that there's a longer fic hiding in there, right?

[unfeathered]

Thank you! :-)

You know that there's a longer fic hiding in there, right?

There is?

[dune-drd.livejournal.com]

Feels like it to me at least :)

[unfeathered]

Well, I give you leave to write it if you want! *g*

Me, I'm finished with it. :-)

Tis very true. He hasn't shown the blindest bit of gratitude to Jack for anything.

Awesome fic.

[unfeathered]

It is true, but then, that's the Doctor. Nice to think that he will eventually get there, though. :-)

And thank you - I like it when I get 'awesome's too! *g*

Oh yes. Damn but that's spot on.

[unfeathered]

Thank you! I seem to have hit it right with this one! :-)

Oh, that is just perfect. I love that so much. Wow. So did not see that ending coming, and it's just fabulous.

[unfeathered]

Thank you! As I said above, I wasn't sure about the ending, so it's very nice to know that apparently it not only works, but works very well! :-)

I just re-read this and it made me sniffle. So good!

[unfeathered]

Awww, thanks sweetie! Always nice to know people go back to re-read things. :-)

The stuff I really like I save on delicious.com and re-read every once in a while *nods*
