Quote:
"You're late."
"I WAS DELAYED. THERE WAS A SMALL PLAGUE IN EBPHEBE. YOU KNOW HOW IT IS." He gave her a knowing look. "BESIDES, ONE COULD SAY THE SAME THING ABOUT YOU."

Good Clean Fun by (as yet anonymous)
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing/Characters: Tenth Doctor, Donna Noble
Rating: General
Words: 1020

Author's summary: The Doctor takes Donna to visit shapeshifters. She seizes the opportunity.
Author's notes: Inspired by AU Meme: Donna Noble by [archiveofourown.org profile] lost_spook. All of these AU snippets were fantastic. This bunny just beat his siblings to the finish line.
Author's warnings: None
Additional tags: Shapeshifting, Banter

My comment: "...Wait, what? I suppose it helps that I follow lost_spook on DW and so I'm passingly familiar with the AU/weird scenario generators they use, but still. LOL. What is this fic even? The Doctor as a caretaker is a nice touch. Shades of foreshadowing, I guess?"

Quote:
It would be unfair to say that turning Donna into a soap dispenser was his greatest regret. The Doctor had a number of regrets across his 900-plus years of life, including several planets he had failed to save. But did it rank up there? Certainly.

Quote:
Rincewind screamed and ran away. Soon his scream was taken up by several other members of the faculty. Death couldn't frown, but he could sigh. Perhaps shuffleboard was too much to ask.
