RTD crushes us something fierce so I'm far from confident this isn't going to end in tears, hopeful, but far from confident.
And I agree, there's a lot of the Doctor in John Smith, I've often said I saw more of the Doctor in a second of John's smile than I did in the floating glowing Jesus Tinkerbelle scene. Because he does long for that life, that...completeness, permanence, wholeness. And that's part of what makes Doctor/Rose so lovely, they had that, in their way but they did; with her he didn't have to wonder if he was good enough because would stay forever.
