i love you still among these cold things | doctor who | amy (writing, eleven) | 500 words | for
clockwork-hart1 who prompted
refusal to confront them directly
does not make you a lesser warrior
pick up your pen
unleash upon them your paper monsters
(fight the good fight.)
oh, and, i stole the title from neruda.(
-- and if you have ever loved him -- )

how like you to bring this into existence in the midst of my re-watch spiral. I CAN ALWAYS COUNT ON YOU TO RUB SALT IN THE WOUND.
{{{{{{{{{{{{{deep breaths}}}}}}}}}}
first of all: you did the fucking thing. AMY/WRITING (aka THE REAL REAL OTP, ALL OTHER AMY SHIPS CAN GO HOME.) ALL MY LIFE I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FIC. THANK SANTA (/satan) YOU WROTE IT so i didn't have to.
and one elopement later. because it is, it is an elopement, even if you have no plans of ever marrying him.
AUDIBLE GASP
he did that to you, too, and still does - leaves you to save yourself, leaves you to -- leaves you
(alone in the dark)
-- which, in the end is why you write
ISN'T IT ALWAYS (NOT THAT I'D KNOW)
you are not sure he would quite understand writing instead of running.
BUT WE'RE ALL STORIES IN THE END. JUST MAKE IT A GOOD ONE, DAMMIT.
-- so, writing, you begin your tale, and the words stratch your skin with blood, is a lot like running.

THIS. THIS IS WHY. THIS IS WHY (and how) AMY POND RUINED MY LIFE DOT COM.
(shut up, of course it was.)
YOU SHUT UP. SHE WAS THE WRITER AND HE THE MUSE, 'TIL DEATH DID THEM PART (AND EVEN AFTER THAT).
-- and if you have ever loved him, it is here and now, while his tears are still gleaming golden on his cheeks, and his suit is not yet stained with grass, when you have long ago allowed yourself to ruin him.
THE GODDAMN BOOKEND OF IT ALL. s2g this relationship arc is basically 90% bookends and you sure did justice to that. crazed laughter. i'm fine.
(we don't talk about her being the one to break his heart. we respect this as a dull ache that will never subside.)
in conclusion:
it's been 84 years. HOW ARE WE STILL NOT OVER THIS. WHEN WILL IT END. IS THERE ANYTHING IN THIS LIFE BUT GRIEF.
