The Terminal Decay Concordance

Terminal Decay by unslinky is a fan fiction novel that takes place shortly after the episode "The Planet of the Dead"in the series Doctor Who. The story is Alternate Universe to everything Doctor Who and Torchwood after that. Unslinky started posting this amazing story in May 2010 and here it is March 2011 and the story is far from being completed. The story is on the website A Teaspoon and an Open Mind.

I am such a big fan of this novel and it's amazing complexities, I decided to write a concordance for Terminal Decay.
The labels in this blog can be used to track of who's who and what's what in the novel. For instance if you scroll down to "seizures" you'll find that it has (3). When you click on that label you'll come up with the Chapters that has someone having a seizure: Chapter 410, 509, 555.
The summaries are just to jog your memory and sometimes I'll write something pertaining to that Chapter that is a bit of TD trivia. The Blog Entries themselves are listed below the rather long (and bound to be even longer) Labels section. Summary inconsistencies should be directed to me and I'll make corrections. Writing this is a long process so I'm far from being caught up but I'm trying! One final thing: I am American so my phrasing and spelling may look a little "off" to you in the UK

Terminal Decay Summary: Chapter 5

Chapter 5 link

The Doctor admits to Martha that he cannot block emotions telepathically because he is so tired. Through a phone call Tom learns that the Doctor is staying at their flat and is keen to meet the Time Lord once he returns from Africa.

The Doctor and Martha watch the first of many movies: The Lion King. The Doctor learns how Martha met Tom after the Year that Never Was. The Doctor learns from Martha that Jack although in a relationship with Ianto really would rather be with him. She also informs the Doctor of as much information that she has gleaned from Jack about being buried alive and about his brother Gray.

Martha is worried by the symptoms that the Doctor is exhibiting: claustrophobia, vertigo, panic, vomiting, forgetfulness. The Doctor agrees to have a thorough checkup in Torchwood the following day.
