''You know it was totally because of Barbara! And maybe Susan, if the whole Time Lords/humans thing is true... ;D''
What about Time Lord/humans? It's my fanon (stolen from one of violetisblue's fics) that Time Lord-Human hybrids are a bit like mules: sterile, genetically funky, and with a tendency towards bi-polar disorder (which would explain a lot about Susan, come to think of it). Well, of course only the first part applies to mules, but you get my drift.
''The more I think of it, the more I like the idea of an AU Romana who stays with the Doctor, or indeed a Romana who only stayed in E-Space for a bit, before continuing her life of adventure and still occasionally meeting/teaming up with the Doctor from time to time. And if she wasn't President, and indeed the Time War was clearly lost and Gallifrey had been taken over by Bond and his fellow crazed megalomaniacs, then I think she could have fobwatched herself with a clear conscience. And being Romana, she's left some clue out there so that the Doctor can find her again; he's just too thick to work it out yet! ;D''
I still like to think they met up occasionally, only we didn't get to see it. Really, though, if Moffat would just give her a shout-out and have the Doctor react to it in an appropriately mournful/wistful manner, I'll be a very happy camper (I don't see why, we've had shout-outs to lesser characters). At least we know he believes they were a couple. Still, I don't want him to bring her back if it means she'll be ''snubbed'' by Eleven in favour of River. So better wait 'till River is gone if that ever even happens.;D
''I think River is very much the Doctor's "type" - brainy, experienced sort of woman who'll talk back to him. So, just like Romana, then! He only _thinks_ women like Rose are his "type" because he's going through a midlife crisis... lost_spook wrote really good fic along these lines a while ago.''
Please don't say you ship it! I don't want to be alone! *clings*
