Fics like dépaysement

“This isn’t school, this isn’t being picked for the sports team or studying to get into the top maths class. This is about you, what you draw to you. It wasn’t that you didn’t demonstrate enough Good Girlfriend Qualities to win Jimmy’s love, and it wasn't that you didn’t tick all the right boxes for him to ask you to marry him. He was drawn to you, like a gravitational pull that suns have on their solar systems. Your energy, your warmth, your humour and understanding and strength and compassion and all the things that make you you. Of course, after a while he was drawn to something else - himself, by the sounds of it - but that didn’t stop you from burning bright in the centre of your solar system any less.” Ten x Rose, in a bar, bumping into Jimmy Stone along the way. T for swears and implicit mention of DV. Fluff.
