Belladonna
Jul. 8th, 2008 08:44 pmTitle: Belladonna
Pairing: implied Ten/Rose
Rating: PG-13
Characters: Tenth Doctor, Donna Noble
Spoilers: 4X13. Journey’s End compliant, but not in the way you might think.
Disclaimer: The BBC's, not mine.
A/N: The title comes from the Latin name – atropa belladonna – for the plant deadly nightshade. Belladonna is Latin for “beautiful lady”, and atropa, according to Wikipedia, is thought to be derived from the Greek goddess Atropos, one of the three fates that would determine a life by the weaving of threads to symbolise birth, life and death. Atropos cuts these threads to mark the last. I think the title oddly fitting.
Summary: Why did he do what he did?

( Because it *certainly* had nothing to do with ‘saving’ her. )
