amberfocus: (Leap of Faith Icon--Do Not Take)

So I finished the little one shot I was working on today.  I haven't decided entirely whether or not I should tweak it a bit more or leave it alone or throw it away.  Probably not best to make that decision on painkillers.  I'll sleep on it and see how I feel tomorrow.  Got a bit more done on both LoF and Three Hour Tour.  My brain still isn't quite as together as I'd like it to be, but it's still more together than it was, so that's something.

So this next bit is super, super spoilery for the future of the Leap of Faith 'verse.  I mean, if you've read Third Time's the Charm, you basically know how Leap of Faith is going to end, more or less, but this goes a bit beyond that.  So if you don't want to know what might happen in the future then don't click on the cut, okay?  Also, I abuse the run-on sentence.

I had this perfect scene pop into my head tonight when I was swimming.  It's set in the Leap of Faith 'verse.  Not sure...I've been sort of contemplating a sequel because I think if I try to add their relationship and how everything will change as they adapt to each other after John has turned back into alt!Nine to the end of Leap of Faith it'll make that fic so long it'll make Zeppelins look like a short story.  So, as I said...I've been contemplating this sequel (tentatively titled Lovers Leap) and the scene that jumped at me was one of the Doctor shaving his head and Rose (who you'll recall has her natural hair color currently) getting so ticked off at him for doing it without warning her that she goes and gets a bottle of blonde hair dye and totally goes platinum on him in retaliation.  And they have this perfect, angry, spitting fight with him defending himself and saying he doesn't need permission to cut his own hair, and she says she didn't need it to dye hers and her saying how much she liked his the other way, and him saying that was John's hair, not his, and why should that matter and her saying because she's his wife dammit, and she loved it the other way, and him realizing that she really does still think of him as her husband even though they were barely married before he changed back and everything she's been afraid of and he's been afraid of, too, that she won't love him because she fell in love with John and she had another Doctor and all that, gets totally swept away, and he realizes he never had a chance trying to not love Rose Tyler, and that ends in them making love for the first time since he turned back into the Doctor.  I do not know if this will ever happen this way, but I really enjoyed imagining out the scene.

Speaking of swimming, I did 30 laps tonight in 40 minutes.  I attempted to kick a couple of times just to see if I could, but my left leg was not having it, so I knocked that right off.  My brain wanted to do 40 laps, but I decided to come down on the side of my shoulders instead.  With it all being focused on my arms I just need to be careful.  I don't want to mess my body up to the point that I can't exercise at all.  It did feel good to be in the water and have my bad knee completely supported and almost weightless.  Hopefully my arms will get used to doing all the work soon and I can work on upping the laps again without exhausting the mucsles.
