[He had wanted to talk with Omega about Seven's "I think your best friend is romantically interested in you" nonsense. Instead...]

I have nightmares about my children dying.

[He pauses, eyes wide. Damn flood!]

[He quickly turns the feed off, before he starts talking about his daughter the last thing he needs is everyone knowing about that.]

[He frowns slightly at the way the Doctor sits -- really, Doctor, that's not how you're supposed to do it -- and takes a sip. Oh. He missed good wine.] Omega thinks the instabilities power the ship.

I've heard that as well. I'm not necessarily a proponent of the theory. Given how badly some of the engineers reacted to seeing the power source I'm starting to think we do. [His younger self being one of them. He drinks his glass quickly. And yes, you want to manipulate him? You have to put up with him being a touch of a heathen.] In any case, I don't think we're meant to know and I'd prefer not to. I want to be done with this place as soon as possible. [Disdainfully.]

[No manners, the Doctor. He should have expected it.] Hm. Personally, I think the Admiral may have... a little too much time alone. [Not that he thinks the Admiral deserves company.] And do we not all?

Wondrous job of choosing travelling companions he's done. [He looks into his now empty glass idly, loosely kicking his foot.] How do you remember Gallifrey when you were younger?

[Rassilon raises an eyebrow -- the Doctor will not start with the self-loathing again now, will he? Mo? No. Good.

The next question, though, is an interesting one.]

Maybe you could elaborate? Do you mean during the Pythia's reign? The revolution? Or afterwards? Or maybe just the planet itself?

The revolution. [Something that would make him proud. Something that would feed him, outside of the harder memories.] The early days of it. When you decided to change everything.

[Spam] ...Why do I only ever see typos when it's too late?

[shortsghtedlove.livejournal.com]

[Well, the revolution is a bit difficult. He'd never regret it and he still thinks it was necessary, but when it comes to the concept... He doesn't like 'change' the way he used to.]

It was simply a matter of making the people aware of the Pythia's wrongdoings. To use their unrest. Then... It did start with burning down the Capitol.

[He remembers that day. He remembers how he had showed the fires to Omega, keeping his friend and himself a safe distance away from the fighting. He remembers how upset it had made Omega.]
