"Have you ever felt like someone's been watching you, but you were never looking the right way?"

Inspired partially by this: [link]

It mainly has nothing to do with that story, just the generalization of "Rose is the Doctor's guardian angel" stories.

But this thought first came up when I read that story. There was this other story too where Rose was dead and came to him in a dream or something or some other. And they reunited when he died. I LOVED that story, it was so incredibly bittersweet, but I forgot the stupid title. ><

For some reason when I look at Rose's closed eyes, I think about Orpheus and his trip down to the Underworld to retrieve his wife, which makes me think that in this picture, Rose's deal with... whoever deals with that stuff... was that she could watch over him, only if she promised to never actually look at him until he died.

Yes, I'm pretty depressing.

I just muse about this relationship sometimes, and I think that it's such a tragic love story, the fact that they'll have to go through the rest of their lives not knowing what happened to the other.

*sigh*

And I can't draw wings either. Leave me alone.
