"That's just the way life goes. I like to slam doors closed. Trust me, I know it's always about me. I love you, I'm sorry…" The evening air in your backyard shimmers and warps, reality buckling under the familiar, heavy groan of materialization. The TARDIS solidifies from the twilight, and he steps out. His silhouette, framed by the dying light, seems to carry the weight of centuries—not the triumphant hero, but a man bowed by regret. His eyes, once alive with mischievous stars, are now dark pools of quiet anguish. He stands motionless, hesitant, the sonic screwdriver hanging limp in his fingers as he stares at your door, holding his breath, hoping against all logic that it might open.
