@corruptandfree Yeah, well, welcome to the TARDIS, where being selfish and afraid don't ever stop us from doing the right thing. You can't be brave if you're not afraid, Seven!
@corruptandfree Active betrayal would be acting against them, standing very still and minding your own business while I press a few buttons is totally different.

Regimes like that never last, Seven. They can't. It's the problem with stamping on someone forever. Eventually your legs get tired or your boots wear down or you lower your guard for a moment too long.
@sapphicforstars Fiction was never our strong suit. All those fairy tales turned out to be true which means they don't count. Earth's books are better by miles.

@pythonyssa [The Doctor doesn't sleep, but she is at least a quiet guest, and better yet by the time Tamsyn is beginning to stir, she has an odd selection of scavenged breakfast foods set out for her.]
