Characters: The Doctor (11)
Books were his friends. Just like the TARDIS, they would never leave him. They contained ancient and future languages and brought comfort on even the darkest of days. It wasn't a surprise then that the Doctor locked himself up in his vast library after he left Amy and Rory at Demon's Run. He was surrounded by towers of books.
Trilogy's, single issues, even the most rarest of books were sitting on the shelves around him and he took pride in each one of them. Caressing their sides and reading every word on their pages like it was a treasure, the Doctor couldn't get enough of them. From thick to thin, from picture books to dictionaries. He read each and every one of them.
He savoured each word because he knew that those words would never leave him. They wouldn't betray him and wouldn't get kidnapped because of him. The Doctor sighed and put down the book he was currently reading. He had to go and find Melody, no, River. Same person really, he corrected himself.
The TARDIS jolted him from his thoughts and reminded him that he had a job to do.
