Because I'm a glutton for punishment, I wrote drabbles for all the prompts.
General thoughts: With Doctor Who characters and some of the prompts, it's difficult to distinguish an AU setting from actual canon. So, once or twice, I took the prompt as 'Divergence in a broadcast story that used this trope'. And as for '…In SPACE!!', I did it by making the characters natives of other sci-fi settings.
I think 'Harem' may have been intended to refer to the Harem Genre, rather than an actual collection of concubines. I hope so, anyway. Though since I've never watched such an anime, it doesn't actually make my task that much easier.
romanajo123 prompted 'Eight/Grace (or if you want, Eight&Lucie)'. I chose Eight and Lucie.
thisbluespirit prompted 'Ben/Polly'. Of course, some of them
came out more gen than shippy, but that's an occupational hazard in
works of this size.
liadtbunny prompted 'Doctor/Romana'.
By this point I can see I'm resorting to fanfic clichés. My first, rejected, attempt was written around a 'huddling for warmth' premise...
( Shopping for Curtains (Ace/Romana II) )While I'm here, and since I know there are one or two Knightmare fans on my flist, it seems there's a 25th anniversary documentary. Seeing what a shoestring it's been made on makes me think how lucky the DW fandom is when it comes to equivalent features.
