Summary
The Doctor wasn’t the only Time Lord to turn away from the untempered schism. In this world, he also wasn’t the only one to survive the war.
The Weaver and The Mechanist were never meant to survive the Time War.
They fled—not for themselves, but for their unborn child who was more precious to them than their careers. On Gallifrey, they were misfits: a brilliant geneticist and regeneration healer and a maker of impossible weapons and machines, too brilliant to silence, too odd to even attempt to control. And so they were tolerated, for the innovations they brought to society were too brilliant to ignore.On a distant blue world, they hid.
Two hearts locked away beneath human skin. A daughter’s true nature sealed in the first hours of her life.
For nineteen quiet years, the tapestry of their disguise held—until the day Rose Tyler met a man called the Doctor, and the threads began to unravel.Series

Summary
Those who knew them sometimes forgot how ancient the Weaver and the Mechanist were, especially compared to the Doctor. It would make sense that they had secrets, told tales that Rose and the Doctor still would never know. But some secrets aren’t meant to be hidden forever, and the last of the Time Lords will find their lives changed once again, once a long buried secret of the Weaver and the Mechanist comes to light.
Meanwhile, the house Lungbarrow has its own secrets to keep, with a decision made in order to preserve another time loop, and another to try to make it right.Series
