Ohhh, this was sad and perfect and...

Thank you...

Thanks for reading and commenting. The War Doctor definitely had the hardest regeneration, didn't he?

[lost_spook]

Oh, very good! This is excellent. (Poor War!Doctor!)

[dbskyler]

Thanks. And yes, I think he had a hard time right from the start.

Fanfiction often makes me like elements of the show I'm not convinced of, and the War Doctor seems to follow that pattern. In the show, he looks like a substitution for the Ninth but you made him an actual person, a unique version of the Doctor. The Doctor and the warrior. Labels. Not so easy to judge him when he's both...

Thanks for sharing!

I've had the same experience with fanfic. I'm flattered that this managed to bring the War Doctor to life as his own incarnation for you.

Oh, I really like this! I guess he will have to learn to be a warrir, just as he has to re-learn being the Doctor after a regeneration.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. :) I think the War Doctor is a very interesting character, and I would love to see some of his adventures during the Time War, but I suspect we'll never get them.

Oh wow, fantastic introspection and characterization here. Splendid job.
