This, this makes me feel a lot better about the episode, so thank you for that. :) It rang very true to the Doctor's feelings (both Doctors really) and, while I still want to thump the Doctor over the head right now, this shows exactly why he did what he did, and in such a beautiful way. If you decide to do more, I eagerly anticipate it. :) Thanks for the read.

P.S. - I use this tense a lot in my own writings. If you need any help with it let me know. I like the use of it very much here. :)
