Summary
The doctor isn't as unaffected by the Time War as he'd like you to believe. He wears a mask, a facade if you will, to hide his trauma from his companions but, thread by thread, the mask is unravelling. Soon enough, he is going to fray and it's not going to be pretty when he does.
or...
Jack and Rose comfort the doctor after a night of self loathing.

Summary
He'll just keep his head down and get on with his life, like he always has.
A solid plan, if not for the unaccounted for variable that Neil Perry, his roommate, turns out to be. His roommate. Not even Nolan's comment about Todd having big shoes to fill invoke the same surety of doom as Neil Perry.
Or, Welton ends up being so much more than Todd Anderson ever signed up for. But maybe, he doesn't hate it as much as he'd expected to. And maybe, he even falls in love along the way.
(Or, or, I meant to write a short anderperry getting together fic and blacked out and ended up rewriting like half the movie but the gay is text instead of subtext.)

Summary
He swallows hard, his hands curling into fists beneath the table.
It wasn’t supposed to be this way, he thinks. Eating isn’t supposed to feel like scaling a mountain in the middle of a storm. Meals are supposed to be simple. Necessary. A part of life.
So why does it feel like he’s drowning every time?
Or, Todd struggles with an eating disorder.

Summary
"I'll try anything once," Meeks says, and what Todd would give to live like that! To say, why not?, and give it a go, no gnawing in his stomach or panic clawing at his chest. He’d heard the argument enough as a kid, when he sat on the sidelines instead of going on a roller coaster or skiing or kayaking with everyone else: "How do you know you don't like it if you've never tried it?"
He's never had a good response. He doesn’t know, not really; maybe kayaking is his true passion. Maybe the open water and a paddle in his hand would make him feel freer than anything else, or maybe a book of poetry, a notebook and a pen; it doesn’t matter. He just knows he doesn’t want to do it.(Or: Todd Anderson, for the first time in his life, strikes a middle ground.)

sometimes happiness; sometimes sorrow (forever together) by hal_ucination

Summary
Soon, Neil would stop checking, and Todd would fade into the background.
This didn’t bother him.
Generally, Todd preferred the background; it was quieter, with fewer expectations. It was almost nice. So, he wasn’t expecting anything with dread. It was a quiet sort of understanding that he carried himself with.
