Title: Five Times the Doctor Got in the Way of Captain Janeway (and One Time They Got Along Just Fine)
Author: lost_spook
Word Count: 5444
Rating: All ages
Characters/Pairings: Eleventh Doctor, First Doctor, Vicki, Third Doctor, Jo Grant, Ninth Doctor, Eighth Doctor, Charley Pollard, Kathryn Janeway, Chakotay, Tom Paris, Tuvok
Summary: Captain Janeway doesn't think much of time travellers and higher beings who turn up on board her ship. The Doctor doesn't take much notice of prime directives. It's a tea vs coffee thing.

I wrote this for the dw_straybunnies October Prompt of the Month. I don't know whether it's more ridiculous that I randomly picked my own prompt, that I ended up writing for it, that I was right up against the deadline, or that I didn't even exactly keep to the prompt. (It was just I had a sudden, entertaining vision of if lots of people wrote the prompt and Janeway was repeatedly confronted by versions of the Doctor lecturing her on time travel, and then there was a plot bunny bounding about...)

Anyway, I'm always happy to wind up writing multi-era nonsense. Already on Teaspoon (I was literally fighting the deadline last night - no time for LJ posts... Or watching Downton Abbey, darn the thing. Will be watching that very shortly!)

Ah Downton Abbey! Since you've not seen it, I won't comment further!

ETA: Couple of post-beta-ish things:

"I want get them home, and you could do it — and you stand there arguing with me over your precious principles-.”

There should be a "to" between "want" and "get"....

“That had better work,” Janeway told him. “And you need to clear out your pockets first next time you’re going to get tied to some unsuspecting individual.”

"you need to clear out your pockets first next time" is confusingly phrased. I'd suggest "you need to clear out your pockets before you next get tied to some..." Or stick a comma after "first"!

I reviewed on Teaspoon, but I had another thought: In a way, it's a pity those rumours about Nicola Bryant being in the running to play Janeway are (apparently) untrue. Particularly for the bit with Peri.

Love the story!

(There's something wrong with your "October Prompt of the Month" link, though.)

I don't even know Voyager, but I read it anyway...

...your first section heading made me want One-meets-Q fic.

No, I can't write it. I haven't even seen One yet.

*is not really coherent right now* (A friend just sent me a Youtube link of John de Lancie doing a dramatic reading of "The Raven". Between JdL being a massively OTT if adorable ham and Poe being a complete nutter, my brain is somewhat addled.)
