I think she gave in too easily though. Should've made him wait a month or something, in linear time...

Yeah, I think Martha wandered away from me in this fic and I now realize that I should have made her push more. But I admit I felt a bit sorry for the Doctor, so I couldn't resist.

Not to mention that a previous draft of this fic had Martha die, so I'd call this version an improvement... Though now I'm tempted on writing an alternate version where she makes him wait even longer than your proposed month. ;) Thanks for the suggestion!
