Afterwords was the penultimate story in the anthology Now We Are Six Hundred. Like Beforwards (the first story in the collection), it was a short story rather than a poem.

Synopsis

It was now sunset. Figment walks through the Thousand Year Wood and is once again diverted to the strange blue tree where he meets an old friend.

• Figment did meet Whoot the Owl and, along with Bigger, caught a Gallifrump.
• Figment has still not met Officer Sandcars.
• The Fourth Doctor uses the name Jonathan Smith.
• Figment is chased through the wood by NightWolves.

Notes

• This story is a sequel to Beforwards. Little time has passed as Afterwords takes place at sunset, rather than dawn the same day.
• This story is based on A.A. Milne's Winnie-The-Pooh stories.
• The name Johnathan Smith, aside from being an alternative version of the Doctor's commonly-used alias, is a reference to Winnie the Pooh's Christopher Robin.
