title: Fading Back from Black
author:

Screencap and bits of dialogue from s1.2: The End of the World
pairing: Nine/Rose, with remembrance of other incarnations, especially Eight
rating: G
1800 words
This story is for the who_contest prompt "Black", and for Who@50, a study of the Eighth Doctor. In this story I view Eight through the lens of Nine, because I think there is a great deal of continuity between Eight's tragic fate as a lover turned Destroyer, and Nine's recovery as he reimagines himself as capable of loving and living again.
Summary:
Who was he?
What sort of alien was he?
From what planet? Where was he from?
Could anyone ever again really know him for who he was?
