I Hoped There'd Be Stars ("Elder" challenge)

This might be breaking the rules, or very bad form at least, and the lovely paynesgrey is free to delete if so. But it's four in the morning here, I am going a bit stir-crazy, and in these unprecedented times I wanted to share something I started writing explicitly for this upcoming prompt about two weeks ago. Here it is.

Title: I Hoped There'd Be Stars
Genre: Action/Adventure/Angst
Characters: Thirteenth Doctor
Word Count: 970
Rating: Soft R (see triggers below)
Summary: Keep your faith. Despite everything, keep your faith. The Doctor, alone, after series 12. Spoilers for The Timeless Children.
Triggers: This work contains references to captivity, implied but not graphic child abuse, aftermath of torture, and societal shame. It does, however, have a hopeful ending.
