I very much enjoyed Sarah and I was sad she didn't stick around for longer, but the reason she's the mother in this verse is that it started before Series Three, and I didn't want to make my own Mary in case the show brought her in and she was very different from how I'd imagined her. So, I used Sarah, who I liked, instead. I'm not much of a shipper in general, or I don't have the strong ships that other people do, but I did like Sarah, and I enjoyed writing my version of her and John.
I have nothing against John and Mary. She's not the Mary I would have hoped the show would have brought in, but she didn't end up being as bad as I had feared the show might make her. The show left off in a spot that makes it hard to write for it, even more so than Series Two did, so I haven't had much in the way of plot bunnies for them.
