This is very, very AU. I wrote it for a friend, but decided to publish it.
Things aren't the same, no one is. It isn't the right Doctor, it isn't even the right companions. But even though it's changed, even though everything is different, it's still the same. There are still Daleks and Time Lords. There is still the end of the universe and fish 'n chips. There's still the Doctor and the companions.
And that is all that matters now, because there's still love, there's still adventure, and there is still life.
