I really liked this, and it's one of my favourites of the Doctor-comes-back-to-the-parallel-world fics. Not because of the sex - though I loved it :) - but because of the all-round closure. Rose has grown up and she's learned to see the Doctor for who he really is and accept it, and also to demand respect for herself while accepting that he'll never behave like a human male. And she's got closure with the Time Lord Doctor, and so has he.
Loved this: "I suppose the fine print might read 'as normal as I'm capable of.'"
"It might. Along with ..."
He scratches his ear. "'Warning: may turn out to be a wanker'?"
So true. Wonderful air-clearing conversation. And I love it, too, that the Doctor and Rose are building their own time machine - and love it even more that the Doctor raided the TARDIS for spare parts (and that he pointed out that the TARDIS is his too, because she is).
Wonderful - will be favouriting as soon as I see it on Teaspoon.
