Of Memes and Morals

Since I took advantage of this meme to make requests of
clocketpatchand
persiflage_1, I must reciprocate!!
The first ten people to comment in this post get to request a drabble of any pairing/character of their choosing from me. In return, requesters should post this in their journal, offering in return fanworks of the kind they enjoy doing. Fic? Icons? Meta?
Probably not a good idea in many ways but I like a challenge. (Although if
primsong is thinking of anything along the lines of the suggestion she gave last time I did a meme, I may run away).
Edit: I should add, I'm happy to do anything, not just DW provided I know it in some way, having read/watched/written it. (As I said, challenge is fun.)
Oh, and here's the 'moral' for Image of the Fendahl from DWM's Everything I Needed To Know About Life I learned From... The Fourth Doctor (by Gareth Roberts). From 2000 - I feel ancient!!
IMAGE OF THE FENDAHL
Granny Tyler knew there was something wrong up at old Fetch Priory when them scientists moved in. I mean, imagine you got a new a job and your colleagues were called Dr Fendelman, Max Stael, Thea Ransome and Adam Colby. Why don't they just call themselves 'Professor Crazy', 'Adolf Evil', 'Wendy Doomed' and 'Johnny Squarejaw' and have done with it?
Moral - Beware people with made-up sounding names.
(I re-read the whole series after finding it and giggled again. These things amuse me.)

Date: 2 May 2009 07:09 pm (UTC)If it was Ruth and Harry you meant, or Zaf and Jo, I apologise. I'll now have to post this on adwc and hope it doesn't mystify everyone. Mind you, that's kind of par for the course. So, meanwhile, back at This Time Round...

Polly had not forgotten Ruth Evershed’s offer of cover – she was an analyst, she wasn’t the Doctor, nor insane – what else did one need?
“So,” Polly said, at the door. “You’ve got the list – don’t let anyone in who’s not on it, especially duplicates. They’re positively the limit. And – this is vital – don’t agree to any of the Doctor’s mad ideas.”
She smiled and hugged the clipboard. “Understood.”
Ruth watched her leave with a gleam in her eye.
“Good!” said Two, emerging from the shadows. “I thought she’d never go. Let’s liven things up a bit, shall we?”
Ruth grinned.
