   AUTHOR: kerk_hiraeth

   FANDOM: Doctor Who (2005);

   CHARACTER(s): River Song; Amy Pond; Teenage female AU incarnation of The Doctor; Rory Williams;

   'SHIP(s): The Ponds;

   SUMMARY: Somehow The Doctor has become a teenage girl; hijinks ensue...

   A/N: This is one I wrote for the middle of elisi's daughters after hearing about her making her own version of Colin Baker's costume as The Doctor; indeed they got to meet him. Having been told that she'd like to be The Doctor I had to write something and came up with this where; as you will quickly guess is AU for a post-S5 Matt Smith-era Doctor. Also originally written for dw100 challenge # 562 ~ salt and pepper. 

     Even The Doctor; who now looked a lot like Amy's old schoolfriend Ffion, had to admit the star was uncomfortably close.

   “Sweetie, “ the not stressed River added, “What did you do?”

   Not necessarily calm, Amy queried, “Doctor?”

   Totally calm, her look said 'Why assume it's me'.

   They just glared back.

   Suddenly the totally not headlong race into doom ceased.

   “They. Are. Not. For. Condiments.”

   All three turned to face a very grouchy, and dripping wet from the shower, Rory. Gripping his towel, he stormed back whence he came.

The Doctor shrugged and, burger in hand, left to find the ketchup.

     TITLE: Fencing Venice

     AUTHOR: kerk_hiraeth

     FANDOM: Doctor Who (2005);

     CHARACTER(s): Amy Pond; Rory Williams; OC;

     'SHIP(s): The Ponds;

     LENGTH: 100;

     SUMMARY: The Ponds do a little 'cash'ing in while on a break from travelling with The Doctor...

     A/N: This is a kind of sequel to The Vampire of Venice; written before S6 and before I fell out of love with Doctor Who again. I can't remember the specific plot bunny, but this came from wondering about companions and whether they ever gathered any souvenirs of their travels, outside of memories.

     The bespectacled owner of the small coin emporium could hardly believe his eyes.

   Glancing at the young couple who had brought this, almost perfect, 16^th Century Venetian silver ducato in; one which appeared to confirm the existence of the infamous Lady Rosanna Calvieri he, voice shaking; breathlessly inquired of them.

   “Are... can you confirm the origin of this?”

   The couple glanced, and smiled, at one another; head slightly inclined he seemed to nod.

   “We can, “ she replied; nodding herself, “assure you this coin is ~, “

   “Was, “ her husband corrected softly.

   “...in mint condition, “ she continued, “when it came into our possession.”
