contents We analyze the convergence of a perturbed circular interface for the two-phase Mullins-Sekerka evolution in flat two-dimensional space. Our method is based on the gradient flow structure of the evolution and captures two distinct regimes of the dynamics, an initial - and novel - phase of algebraic-in-time decay and a later - and previously explored - phase of exponential-in-time decay. By quantifying the initial phase of relaxation, our method allows for the investigation of systems with large initial dissipation as long as the isoperimetric deficit is small enough. We include quantitative estimates of the solution in terms of its initial data, including the $C^{1}$-distance to the center manifold of circles and the displacement of the barycenter.
