Vae's Jack
"We didn't really have a chance to say hello properly the other day," the Doctor said, spotting Jack and sliding into step beside him.

He was a little wired. Twitchy.

"There's several time lines where I sent Rose away, she opened the heart of the TARDIS and came back, destroyed the Daleks, and brought you back. And I ran away from you. One where I came back for you, but that's just as disturbing because he ditched Rose. Not quite as disturbing as the one without Rose to intervene, I set off the Delta Wave, killing you and...Earth, and seem to have gone quite mad upon regenerating," he said grimly. He glanced over, and said quietly. "You got left?"

	"I got left," Jack confirmed quietly. "And I met the version that the Doctor went back for and believe me, the ones that didn't are the ones that did the right thing." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I promise, you didn't need to be left on a space station to not be that," the Doctor murmured. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"That one did," Jack insisted. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Maybe." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Definitely." Really, really hadn't liked what he'd learned about himself from that variation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yeah, well, I don't like versions of me running because they don't know how to fix someone they love. That's coloring my take." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You got Rose safe," Jack insisted. "I could take care of myself." Hadn't liked it at the time, sure. But looking back...yeah, he'd rather that the Doctor had got Rose, and himself, safe for the regeneration. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You could and did," he agreed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cpt_jack 2009-03-05 02:12 pm UTC (link)
	"And Rose couldn't." Not then, anyway. "The Doctor was on the verge of regeneration, he had to get her some place safe." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It was the right choice," Jack said firmly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's good you're not angry about it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cpt_jack 2009-03-05 02:37 pm UTC (link)
	Jack shrugged. "I had a long time to be angry about it. I've met my version of the Doctor, in my timeline, and dealt with it. And Rose was worth it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Of course. She's Rose." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jack grimaced, and shook his head. "Nope, didn't get caught by that one until the 1920s. And that wasn't by you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
