    Summary

    "If you have something to say, make it quick. I don't have much time to spare."

    As if on cue, the lights flicker, once, twice, before dying entirely. Backup emergency lighting kicks on, bathing the hallway of the ship in a stark artificial glow that didn't match the false daylight of a normal daytime on the vessel.

    "I'm going to assume that's your time running out?"

    "You need to leave," says Dan Heng. There's something bubbling up in his chest the longer he thinks about Caelus staying here, and if he didn't know better he might think it was concern, or even fear. "You're only in danger on this ship."

    Summary

    At the end of the day, his best choice was to stay silent, and so silent he was.

    Summary

    The mantle of the Deliverer is heavy. Caelus had known this when he'd taken it from Phainon's shoulders, and yet hadn't expected the way his knees would buckle beneath it. Without Phainon sustaining the Eternal Recurrences, he hadn't expected them to keep looping.

    Summary

    "I'm going to need you to take one of those stakes," he continues, as if Caelus hadn't said a word, "and send it through my heart. It's the only way."

    Summary

    The last time the Doctor had to wash a dish was… had it been with the Ponds, maybe? In the year he’d settled down with them? Had it been sometime in his tenure as a university professor, watching over Missy in her vault? Had it even been far back on Gallifrey, before he’d run, back when his family was alive?
    It didn’t matter, though. Donna had asked him to do the dishes today.
