I dunno if you'll ever read this, coz I wrote this way after you finished it, but Merlin in the TV show? The actor was in the Midnight episode of Doctor Who! I was watching it last night and halfway through, I looked at the teenager in it and said "Is that Merlin?" so for the next half hour I cracked up every time I looked at him.
AWESOME STORY!! THANK YOU!!

This is fantastic! I really hope you write more of it soon. And that Alex decides to travel with the Doctor for a while. I can't wait to see what the Doctors reaction to Alexs age will be. So much to look forward to! Oh, and the mentions of Jack were great- he'd love Alex, I'm certain of it. Anyway, again, great job!

Oh, how I wish that you would update! I love this story, and it is shameful for it to have been abandoned to the dogs for so long!

“You know… you could come with me. For a bit. If you wanted...?”

Please-please-please-please? The misadventures of these two are already quite entertaining. Can I talk you into posting another chapter?

I really, really, like your stories but this one in particular.
I've looked around but i can't seem to find any others with the same crossover and it's terrible!!
It's such an awesome idea. Oh well, if you know of any other similar stories could you please PM me about them?

Thanks a lot, update soon!!

Hullo there, I have to say I am quite enjoying this literary adventure, I read it quite some time ago, but with an utter lack of knowledge of all things Doctor Who I was not as interested in this as I was you other stories.
Now, armed with a smidgen more info of the whys and wherefores of the Who Verse I anxiously await the next installment. I apologize for the absence of anything resembling a constructive review at this point in time, but in my humble opinion it needs little enhancement, save for the improvement advancement would bring.
Please accept my avid felicitations,
Sincerely,
Amber

this is awesome. love it. and of course they start traveling together, what'd be the point other wise? and I wonder how they're each going to react when the find out about each other's back stories properly... that's going to be an interesting conversation, for sure.
Brilliant story you've got going here. Hope you can update it soon! and I've got to admit, it'd be one hell of a meeting between Alex and Jack. They are fairly similar.

Wow, this is nice, REALLY nice. In such rare crossovers, you have to take it with a grain of salt, and hope for the best, and that it isn't crap. This is far from crap, its lovely.

Even if you never finish this one, I'll remember it fondly. I know Alex would be better off with the Doctor then with MI6 (and that is saying something!), but I assuredly want to read Ms. Jones and Blunt's reaction to Torchwood sweeping in, and asking questions they'd rather avoid to bringing to light - and then Jack Harkness getting mixed up with Alex, finding out that the kid worked with the Doctor and Jack taking him on with Torchwood, forcing MI6 to give him what is his due paycheck (in my nicer moments, I think they set aside a account which Alex may live off of once he is of age and they can justify giving it to him as "inheritance") - and, better yet, the whole fact that Torchwood can and would take Alex, most valued spy in the country or not.

I would love to see you tie Yassen into this, or K-Unit, what with Scorpia, or someone going after Alex (you haven't really given any clues to how far back or along the time line is) and maybe Yassen trying to protect Alex and finding out that Alex has gone off the charts, getting pissed that MI6 perhaps killed his mentors son; but, being Yassen, he'd have to be sure maybe then, he would find Alex in perhaps the last place he suspected to look. Maybe there is a history between Yassen and Torchwood, or Yassen decides that Torchwood is more dangerous then MI6 and thinks to get Alex out of it, forcefully, rather then only saying that Alex shouldn't be doing what he is (obviously, Alex wouldn't listen, as he didn't the last time) it could end up being fairly amusing, and with that idea alone you could keep things rolling along.

As for K-Unit, well, Torchwood has its military connections, and maybe Alex ends up in a mess where Torchwood has to call in backup being the SAS; and K-Unit sees Alex standing there with the team, or he's been captured and they are given his photo to identify "who not to shoot"; perhaps everything would have been fine, if they hadn't reacted ("C-cub?!"), and Jack - or Gwen (or, my giggling self deludes, Yassen, who's been picked up as a team mate/backup for Alex with his kill count and loyalty to Alex), being overly curious and protective, decides that perhaps the SAS wouldn't miss there men if Torchwood showed a interest in "acquiring" them. Then there would be the reunion, oh so much FUN, me thinks.

You've got the start set up oh-so-perfectly, none the less.

And, I just have to wonder, what if, when all this seems settled and Alex is getting used to being a school-boy/former spy/alien fighter - what if, the Doctor comes back - and finds out how MI6 had been using Alex, when trying to find them through those connections?

That last bit has me squealing - and I want the Doctor to get all righteous when he finds out that Alex ISN'T eighteen which the Doctor is working under the assumption of - rather that he's a fourteen year old who'd be lucky to live till eighteen with how he's abused on "missions" with sketchy backup.

Best of all this, is that the Doctor said that while Alex's brain lengths hadn't "settled" - what if the truth of the matter is that Alex isn't human, that he is a Time Lord and is waking to that fact? This would only make sense if at a certain age (say, fifteen/sixteen) a Time Lord's brain "wakens" to the mental awareness and connection that all Time Lord's share? I would think that to be brillent. It would explain why MI6 were so keen to send a fourteen year old out, if they knew of the possibility that he could "regenerate"...

Well, I'm just trying to stir up your ideas for this story, and I hope I've gone about that; hope to see more, and whatever you do, know that you've done it wonderfully and never fair to impress me!
