River is walking through the ship. Barefoot and intent.

Every hallway. Every room. Every doorway.

One door slides open before she can touch it.

Simon's on the other side, blinking at her.

He meets her eyes.

"What is it, meimei?"

"...To Milliways, you mean?"

"Maybe..."

He hesitates.

"Maybe we just haven't found the right door yet."

It's weak, and he knows it. It hasn't taken him more than two tries to find a door to Milliways, not for months.

"River, it's okay. We'll find the way back."

He puts a hand on her shoulder.

"This is just ... temporary. A glitch somewhere. They'll get it fixed."

simon_doctor: (hug)
From: [personal profile] simon_doctor
"Shh. I know. We will."

He draws her into a hug, and pats her back.

"We will. Soon."




It's almost two weeks later before he stops trying every door he passes.
