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
Allons-y, Donnaj

Terminal Decay Summary Chapter 3

Chapter 3 link
The Doctor, upon arriving at Martha’s flat refuses to ride in the elevator
and chooses to walk the twelve floors up to her apartment. The Doctor is
physically more winded than Martha is from the ascent up the stairs. The
Doctor is pale and sweating from this exertion and is giving Martha more to
be concerned about. He again seems forgetful (this time about Sarah Jane and
Luke staying at Martha’s during visits.)

The Doctor has an incident of vertigo while on Martha’s balcony and tries to
cover his dizzy spell saying he must have tripped. He eventually admits to Martha that he doesn’t know what could be wrong with him. Again in this Chapter the
Doctor’s memory is incorrect as he puts sugar in Martha’s tea. The Doctor
may be ill but his Time Lord hearing is just fine as he couldn’t help but
hear Martha’s side of the conversation with Jack about his health. The Doctor
overreacts to spilled wine on his shirt and believes the wine is actually blood.
