ninth doctor, rose tyler (s2)

WHO: Rose & Nine
WHERE: Karn (except in this world, it's called... um... Yarn. Who cares.)
WHEN: Tonight (in a Timey-Wimey sense)
WHAT: A New Beginning
WARNINGS: Absolutely no idea.

Eleven had given the Doctor another place to check into in his hunt to extend Rose's life and, if he was lucky, grant her regeneration. She'd already spent more time in the Time Vortex than most, and from what he understood that alone had changed some of the other companions. Add in the Bad Wolf incident, and her changed DNA, he felt like he had all the pieces to the puzzle and just was failing to make them fit.

And, clever as he was, this hadn't changed.

He landed the TARDIS on the world of Karn, or whatever they called it here. Rather than leaving Rose behind the Doctor had taken her along, knowing full well if he kept trying to coddle her she'd likely get quite cross with him.

"Karn wasn't somewhere we could visit in the old universe," The Doctor said to Rose, spinning a wheel and turning a lever. "It was behind the time lock."

"I know. But you'll find time doesn't move quite as fast as you think it does," he murmured, pulling back just enough to look in her eyes. "Your folks will be here a long while yet. And that's a bridge to cross when you get to it, not look down the road for."

The Doctor tried to not detach from emotion when he explained the plan. "It's sort of an addition. An augmentation; human plus time lord. Couldn't just replace it all, this is more of an improvement. We evolved this way because of our proximity to the Time Vortex for billions of years. You've spent enough time to already have been changed. Should be easy enough, just helping along the process. You're already a time traveller. Just will change a bit more."
