Rose Hate is just as, if not MORE, widespread. The problem-- with any companion, but *especially* with Rose-- is that there's no middle ground.
As I said, I'm new to the fandom and so not very deeply entrenched, so I had no idea there was such a large anti-Rose faction! If you're looking for a middle ground when it comes to Rose, I suppose I occupy it; I'm fine with her in canon, just wary of her treatment in fic. I will absolutely read yours, though, as you seem to have a pretty balanced view of her and her relationship of the Doctor; I will push aside my mild anti-Rose bias for you, my dear. ;)
knowing that Arthur Darvill was going to be in the finale was one of the only things that kept me going, the week after Cold Blood.
You know, I think I might be in the same boat! The only reason I spoiled myself was I'd grown so attached to the character, I just HAD to know what was coming up! I would have been really devastated if I'd found out he was gone for good. But in hindsight, I do think I would have enjoyed his return even more if I hadn't been expecting it.
Thanks for the chat, love! I'm really enjoying your views on the fandom. :)
