Why this must be read:

Because if you think Martha Jones forgot about what she saw while walking the Earth, or that it didn't affect her, you thought wrong.

This story is an early morning phone conversation between Martha and Jack about what she saw during The Year That Wasn't, two people who still remember what happened and are forced to carry the burden of such painful memories. It's Jack comforting Martha like only he can, and Martha opening up about what happened to her, and even though it hurts, you know they'll get through the pain together. It's wonderful and heartbreaking in how beautiful it is. Go on and read it, and add it to your personal fanon collection now.

And she can hear it in his voice – that same faith, that belief that she knows will always be there for her, will be there long after she has gone to dust and the rest of the world has forgotten her name.
