Hey - I just remembered I wrote this quite a while ago to enter into a little contst thing on tumblr
Hope you enjoy it
It was strange how magical it felt to Rose, watching the Wright brothers succeed in getting their rickety little plane to fly. She stood there hand in hand with the doctor a safe distance away, leaning against the TARDIS, a time and space traveling machine, which was in a league of its own for pure wonder, but just watching these two men, who had finally cracked something that she knew would lead to some of the worlds most historic moments, she felt her eyes prick with pride, the Doctor tugged her arm slightly and she looked up to see his beaming face.
It was one of his favourite things, taking Rose to moments in time she could just enjoy. Much as they both enjoyed the running, these moments were always the most memorable, they stood out strong and bright from the running and the terror, because they both just wanted to live in the moments, so they could have something to draw from on the worst day when they needed their faith in humanity - and other species - to be restored.
