@EternalFact "No! No.", the Doctor quickly reassures, shaking his head. "No apocalypse scheduled for today, pinky promise." He sobers up and searches Jack's gaze. "I just wanted to check up on an old friend. Last time I tried, you were nowhere to be found."

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

— Hey there, @EternalFact. Hullo.

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

@EternalFact but it doesn't come as easy. He can sense how much Jack has aged. It's been a long time.

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

@EternalFact "Eh, you know how it is." the Doctor tugs his earlobe, trying to smooth over his unease. He's also the /only/ trenchcoat-wearing time traveler Jack knows, isn't he.
"Changed my mind about regenerating. Why change this face? I like this face."
Now he returns the grin, +

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

busy life, moving on.

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

don't.
no.
don't.

[The Doctor @AGoodMadMan]

Hey, who turned out the lights?

Hey, who turned out the lights?

Hey, who turned out the lights?

Hey, who turned out the lights?

@SpaceMott "It's good to see you again.", the Doctor said quietly, arms wrapping around Wilfred in a slow return of the hug, understated as if he had to remind himself how to do it.

They'd been through a lot together, huh.And it wasn't over yet.

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

@StandsOnHigh just a feeling without an open link but still the reassurance that he's not alone.

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

@StandsOnHigh "Then I'll continue doing just that.", the Doctor promises, smoothing his hand down the back of Koschei's head and resting at the base of his neck, relearning how this new body feels under his touch. The heartbeat is the same, as is the soothing presence in his mind, +

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

@StandsOnHigh Together.
So, so long ago ...

Does Koschei still feel the same way about him? Where do they stand?

He clears his throat and blinks when his eyes get suspiciously wet, then pulls Koschei into another tight hug.
"Come here, you. I'm not gonna let you go again that easy."

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

@StandsOnHigh Even if the Doctor didn't believe him, he couldn't possibly tell him so. Not to his desperate, pleading face.

"Perhaps I haven't tried hard enough to save you.", he replies quietly, shaking his head to make Koschei stop talking. He barely remembers what it was like, them. +

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

... We both know I was stalling.

[The Doctor @AGoodMadMan]

“Well, I suppose, if it’s my last chance to say it...”

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

Hey now, what's that supposed to mean?

[The Doctor @AGoodMadMan]

Oh because you /always/ thought before you speak.
At least I say what I mean and don’t leave people hanging.

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

Right, because you're known for thinking before you speak.

[The Doctor @AGoodMadMan]

I’m well voiced in spoilers, so I’m not telling you anything unless you ask.

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

don't tell me stuff that happens because once you do i can't change it..

[The Doctor @AGoodMadMan]

Yeah, well I dealt with that by—

Actually nevermind. You wouldn’t like it.

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

See?
Defying fate.

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

It's the Guilt.

[The Doctor @AGoodMadMan]

How. Just...how did I apologize so much when I was you?

[ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ. @DecemDeserted]

i'm the one who defies fate.
