Characters: River Song, Eleventh Doctor
Summary:
After the trials, River doesn’t remember whether she killed the Doctor or not. He is the phantom echoing her footsteps.
A/N: -Happy late Birthday,
Leiascully!
-I’m sorry. This is unspeakably angsty.
-Greatly inspired by Hiroshima, mon amour by Marguerite Duras. Title from the same.
-AU: this is no headcanon. It varies from my personal canon-headcanon, but it still was something worth exploring.
-Time-line: The Doctor is post-Manhattan, pre-Snowmen. River is pretty much immediately after The Wedding of River Song. Spoilers for The Day of the Doctor.
