keep_countingSo, I have a question about Donna's fate in S4
Does she remember her first encounter with the Doctor?
I was re-watching Runaway Bride today and that just got me thinking... assuming that each season is around a year long (and we're obviously not counting the deleted year of Martha's journeys at the end of S3), that's a whole year between their first meeting and Donna's joining up with the Doctor.
We know that Donna cannot have her memories of her time in the TARDIS back, and the Doctor heavily implies in End of Time that it could be dangerous for her just to see him (though he does say goodbye to her in Journey's End after the mindwipe, but she was distracted there and hardly even looked at him), so if she as much as remember the whole wedding-incident, is that enough to trigger the rest of her memory? Considering the time that passed between the first and second encounter, is that enough to keep the Doctor's mindwipe there or does she genuinly not remember one little bit of the Doctor?
Obviously I am thinking way too much about this, and I personally think the answer is that she doesn't remember the Doctor at all (because RTD is evil), but there's just a part of me that reallyreally wants it and I think I am desperately trying to make it fit.
(Also, fic!prompt for any who wants it: Donna and her amnesia. What does her mind fill the holes with? Does she sometimes say or do things that seem completely crazy/weird/extremely scientific? Does she have dreams about traveling to Ancient Rome and tiny, bald people with big guns? Does she ever see a black, young woman on the streets or an American in a long trench-coat and thinks she recognizes them? PLEASE F-LIST MAKE MY SUMMER!)
