Reminders

Susan

The TARDIS. Every time a new companion learns that name he feels a touch of pride, and the sting of a promise that died with Gallifrey.

Jamie

Broken bagpipes. Jamie had found them. He had wanted to fix them. In the end, the Doctor did it for him. Not that Jamie would ever know.

Jo

A blue crystal from Metebelis III. It was meant as a gift, as a goodbye and a promise to keep her safe. It was returned as bad luck. Part of him wanted to laugh. Most of him wanted to cry.

Adric

The shattered pieces of a broken star. He feels the jagged pieces against his skin, and it hurts in more ways than one.

Ace

A canister of Nitro-9. He slips it in his pocket and hopes that she'll still be able to use it if it gets wet.

Jack

The sonic blaster. He had hidden it away to stop Jack from killing, but, looking back, he never really could do much about that.

River

A sonic screwdriver. He kept it so he could give it to her again one day. He wonders if letting her live like that had any point at all.

Reinette

A letter tucked in his pocket. Sealed with wax and faded lips, many of the words have already been washed away.

Martha

The phone. It's useful, he knows it, but he always dreads the next time it rings. Because he knows that the next time it rings, he'll be invited to her wedding.

Rose

A Bezulium trinket. It reminds him of it all. How he was lost, and how she saved him. Of how he lost her, and left her in a parallel universe with a man who was him and wasn't him. Most of all, it reminds him of the Old Team.

Donna

Of her, he finds so many things. Hat boxes and souvenirs and clothes she probably wonders about. They had the best of times, and he took it all away. But he's fine. He's always alright.
