Twenty-fourth drabble for the [livejournal.com profile] doctorwho_100 challenge. Time for a little angst, methinks, to counter the madcap hilarity of 'The Kingmaker' last week. That and I'm running out of drabbles to post that stick to my self-imposed rule (no repeat posting of companions till I've posted one for each of them) - I may have to break it, otherwise there'll be nothing to post after next week! Never thought I'd be wishing for exams, but it would probably help my muse get motivated!

Fic Name: Nothing Left
Rating: G
Prompt: Grieve (#095)
Claim: Companions
Companion: Perpugilliam (Peri) Brown
Timeline: At the end of the Big Finish audio The Reaping.
Spoilers: Major spoilers for the end of The Reaping.


She doesn’t understand, nothing is fair, nothing in her life makes any sense anymore, she just wants to curl up in a corner and cease to exist. Her throat is sore from crying, and sobs shake her body until she can no longer remain standing.

Everyone she had in Baltimore is either dead or gone - she has no family, no friends; she has nothing and no-one anymore. Why had she chosen to stay, why had she told him to leave her here?

A hand on her shoulder, that multicoloured coat.... She sobs into his shoulder, and he takes her home.

I felt so sorry for Peri. Mum gone, "ex" injured, she's fallen out with her friend, probably feels partly responsible for the death of her best friends dad...

I love Peri, but it's so much to put on her.

:(

Thank Rassilon for the planet of televisions or she'd have been left there all on her own! A very convenient plot device, if you ask me. But yeah, I really feel for Peri at the end of the story.
