This is so lovely. I love how simple it is, how calm and gentle and sort of quiet it is, like it's this little moment in the middle of time and space and everything's peaceful and the Doctor's just contemplating Rory's spine like it's the most normal thing in the world. Which, yeah, I could totally spend all day contemplating any part of Rory/Arthur's anatomy so he might be on to something there. math equations sounded slightly off for some reason, though; I think mathematical would flow better, but that's probably just me.
But this is just so lovely, I don't think I can quite get across how much in words. It's this quiet swelling of emotion that feels an awful lot like love and it's gorgeous. This pairing will be the death of me too if you keep writing them like this, you know.
Is it bad that I got a little turned on? This line got me if it's the way it ripples when the Doctor does a certain thing, moving in sync with Rory's moans. I got this really hot image in my head and I just...yeah. Wonderful. Very few stories ever get me turned on. Very VERy few get me turned on that easily. I feel a little violated, you should take me out to dinner after this review. Or at least give me a cigarette. Haha.
I also like how you took simple word like curvature and made it into a really beautiful story. And the focal point of the spine. Like you took this small part of the human body and put it in a light that just drenched it in beauty. Never have I ever saw someone appreciate a spine so much. You use no dialog, everything is communicated through these actions, and it just flowed so perfectly. It was almost like a song. Wonderful :)
