    Summary

    Our story begins as The Doctor finds himself in London in a beautiful new body, ready to take it for a spin on the dance floor when he comes across Simon, not his real name, a human who has been masquerading as The Doctor for two years. Not feeling quite himself just yet, the Doctor decides to take the time to see where this mess is headed. After a trip to UNIT with the fake, he learns that the man not only has a touch of Time Lord energy, just like The Doctor has a touch of mascara, but there's something familiar about him.

    Also, his new body has a few kinks to work out, and energy to burn...

    Simon only ever took up The Doctor's mantle in the hopes of meeting... not him. He wanted to meet the previous version, and finds this one to be a disappointment. But after two years of work, making a comfortable new life for himself in this London, as a beloved figure in this universe, what is he supposed to do now? Go home? To what? To where? As who? A Swedish exchange student, sitting at home on his couch with his cat? Moving once was hard enough, and Simon hates travel.

    This story takes place more than 2 years after the events of Doctor Who episode 319b The Reality War.
