I like to imagine this still happened though, so one day we’ll come back and put this one back in - Russell T. Davies
Journey’s End-Deleted scene
#it’s my headcanon #that this scene didn’t happen #but what did #was that after the Doctor lost the TARDIS on that impossible planet #and he realised how easily his entire life could fall through his fingers #he tucked away a piece of TARDIS coral #in each new suit jacket that he chose#because there are LOADS of uses for it #and he has pockets that are bigger on the inside after all #what’s the harm? #and he’d never admit that it was a talisman against loss #(one that didn’t work when Torchwood broke the walls between dimensions) #but it was something tangible he could touch in moments of panic #and when he grew out of his old hand#that spare bit of TARDIS coral was the last thing on his mind #as he grabbed clothes to cover himself up #and it was weeks #months even #into his new life with Rose Tyler #that he found the gnarled #root-like chunk of coral #in the corner of his pocket #and explaining to her what it was and what it means #and the way her face lights up with excitement#immediately goes on his list of Favourite Moments as a Human #which is getting more items every day (via valueturtle)
