DW Fic: Planetay Pubs

Title: Planetary Pubs
Disclaimer: I don't own Doctor Who. If I did, I'd...probably still be writing fanfiction, but I wouldn't post it. Also, my name would be in the credits. I know it's hard to tell because they move so fast, but it's not.
Characters: The Doctor, Donna
Warnings: Slight spoiler warning for Pompeii and The Runaway Bride, I guess. Very slight, though.
Summary:
Apparently, there are pubs on other planets. A sort of sequel to my fic Of All The Places.
A/N: A sort of sequel to Of All the Places. I say "sort of" because this fic works on the premise that the pub they were in wasn't on Earth, which wasn't what I really intended when writing the first one.

"So...they have pubs on other planets?"
"What, you thought humans were the only race in the universe to come up with the pub concept?"
"Well, I don't know, do I? First alien race I ever met were giant spiders! They don't have pubs, do they?"
"No, Donna, the Raknos don't have pubs. They eat pubs."
"Right. Do those giant rock monsters have pubs?"
"Of a sort."
"Seriously? Giant rock-lava monsters have pubs?"
"People, Donna, giant rock-lava people. Not monsters."
"They nearly destroyed the Earth! Anyway, those slime things, do they have pubs?"
"'Course not. Why do you think they came here?"
"Doctor?"
"Yeah?"
"Why did they come here? I mean, they're not really here for the pubs, are they? So what are they doing here?"
"I don't know. Shall we ask them?"

DW Fic: Of All the Places

Title: Of All the Places
Disclaimer: I don't own Doctor Who. If I did, I'd...probably still be writing fanfiction, but I wouldn't post it. Also, my name would be in the credits. I know it's hard to tell because they move so fast, but it's not.
Characters: The Doctor, Donna
Summary: Donna wants a meal, but she's not exactly happy with where the Doctor takes her. Mostly dialogue fic.
A/N: I was watching Gordon Ramsey, and there was an episode with a pub on. Then a plotbunny bit me in the foot. It was quite painful.

"Doctor."
"Oh, look at that!"
"Doctor, look at me."
"Blimey, this place is brilliant, isn't it?"
"Doctor-"
"Oh, good, here comes the food."
"Doctor!"
"What?"
"What are we doing here?"
"What do you mean? We've come for a meal."
"Yeah, but here?"
"What?"
"All of the universe, Doctor, and you take me to a bleeding pub."
"Oh, Donna, but this is the place, here, a regular pub, with regular people and regular food. This, this here, this is it, Donna."
Suddenly a scream split the air, and there was a loud crack as a small, slimy alien burst through the kitchen doors.
"And regular aliens?"

Holidays, Headaches, And Something Else Starting With H

I finally start tutoring tomorrow. Yay! I'm...not as excited as I thought I would be. Partly because I'd rather actually be going back to school, and partly because it requires thinking despite my migraine being pretty much constantly above an eight. And only being able to take codine every six hours. Yeah, the fact that it seems to be (mostly) keeping my migraine from hitting a ten isn't much comfort when I'm lying on the couch groaning and not able to take codine for another two hours. Not that it does much when I do.

Sarah Jane should be back on in a couple of weeks, though- assuming that's what Scifi's SJA marathon signifies. I can't wait! I'll finally be able to actually read all the SJA fanfic I find. In other news, my mind is a sick, disturbing place. How do I know this? Because I read my own writing. Also, I spend much of my time in my mind, and am therefore quite well aquainted with it. More specifically, I know because of a Glitch/Cain fanfic I wrote last night. It was my first time attempting to write anything remotely smutty, and it turned out kind of...weird. I think I made good use of Glitch's zipper, though! It was a lot of fun to write, even if it did end up really sort of...disturbing.

I really need to work on my Last TARDIS series. It's a series of fanfics I'm writing which go through every episode of the new Doctor Who (starting with Rose) from the TARDIS's point of view. Is it odd that the TARDIS is my favorite character in Doctor Who? Anyway, I've only done Rose and The End of the World so far, because I'm trying to do them in order and I'm kind of stuck on the one with Dickens. I'll have to watch it again, see if it inspires me. I really hope it does, because otherwise I'm going to have to go ahead and write ones for The Empty Child and The Doctor Dances. There's a plotbunny for those that's been bothering me since before I wrote the one for Rose. I think it involves the TARDIS thinking Jack is pretty and nice.

Hanukah is in a week. Yay! I'm having a bit of trouble getting excited, mostly due to the fact that I probably won't get to go to the Hanukah party at my synagouge. Or the services, probably. So yeah, I'm kind of sad.
