Nice introspection!

Very well written I must say! I think you've captured 5 and Turlough perfectly and their off-screen vulnerability makes an interesting read.

I was never a big fan of Turlough while watching the series, until Planet of Fire but on re-watching them I appreciate him a lot more. Perhaps it was the speedos that swung it XD

Yay for the great Turlough fic. He's one of my fave companions. I love the idea of him and the Doctor talking after the ordeal. Its a real joy to read so thank you for posting :- )
