title: having crossed the river styx
fandom: doctor who
warnings: none
summary: on moving on.
It's not that she didn't miss her family. Sometimes she missed them so much she could hardly catch breath, she'd never gone more than a week without at least speaking to someone. It's nice to be the one at the center.
Sometimes Martha listens to her phone ring, and finds being the reliable one completely, utterly unbearable.
*
Martha never forgets Tom doesn't remember. She thought she might, after a while; the lines would blur, and maybe this first meeting would superimpose itself. It doesn't.
She doesn't always return Jack's calls. It’s not that she's ignoring them. It's just easier.
