I rather like that, you know.
I adore it. It's them-- I can't see them being "normal".

You might just have thrown light on my own reading patterns. Thank you.
You're welcome!

That is a wonderful quote. And I'm giving CoE a chance-- I've seen Day 1, and it's wonderful so far. If it gets too grim, I can always turn it off. (Strangely, it's one of those things I think I'd be more comfortable reading than watching.)

I think the problem with love stories is that they have to go somewhere.
Yes, they do. RTD did basically every variation of the ending possible for a Doctor/someone relationship. (And, thing is, I like that he *had* Doctor romance, and my only complaint about the Doctor/Rose ending is that she never got to say goodbye to the original Doctor. And I say this as a non-rabid Doctor/Rose shipper-- though I prefer Doctor/Rose/Jack.)

Moffat has very cleverly sidestepped this with Doctor/River, which almost exists outside the narrative, and thus we're never caught in that 'will they/won't they?' thing.
I still see the "will they/won't they" but that's because I'm not yet a Doctor/River shipper. The sole reason: I don't know enough about River. Because other than that? She's fantastic for him.

That's Amy-- brilliant. :D
