Summary
Kevin is fast enough to try to end his own life while he’s in the Light. The time it takes him to find the gun, load it, and press the barrel to his mouth is just enough for Casey to try and escape.
But the Beast would never allow Kevin to hurt himself—ever again. Not him, not any of them. And now, not even Hedwig has any control over the Light beyond him.

Summary
In this story, Martha Jones is almost the same character we know—except for a few crucial differences: she battles depression, is socially isolated, and constantly struggles with herself.
Here, Martha is a "real doctor" written as a kind of "painkiller" for the Doctor. She was designed to be an "easy target," deliberately written to be disliked by both the Doctor and the audience. Her depression, which could have been a deep and sensitive character arc, is instead handled superficially in this fic—something I aim to explore more thoroughly, exposing the narrative negligence.
The original storyline has been rewritten: there is self-sabotage, a toxic relationship with oneself, devaluation, and self-deprecation.
