Rating: G
Characters: 4th Doctor, Sarah Jane Smith (references to 3rd Doctor, Jo Grant)
Words: 2185

Summary: In the 3rd Doctor story "The Mutants" the natives of the planet Solos metamorphosized as their planet moved from its 500 year spring into summer. What happened at the other seasons?

Author's Note:

This is one of my oldest fanfics, it was actually written in 1993. Yes, 20 years ago. I just saw a wonderful tribute artwork to Elizabeth Sladen with Sarah Jane and the Fourth Doctor, [link] which made me think of it.

I'm posting it now in honor of Elizabeth Sladen. And in honor of the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary. What better way to celebrate 50 years of Doctor Who than with 50 years of fanfic?

Be gentle with me, my writing style has changed over two decades. But I thought some of you might enjoy reading it.

This is based on the episode "The Mutants," a Classic Doctor Who story where the aliens metamorphosize to adapt to their planet's extreme seasons. The different phases in this story are derived from the symbols on the tablets the Time Lords sent the Doctor to deliver in the episode. (The picture below is a drawing of the tablets from the episode.)

It is written as an article by Sarah Jane Smith, with a surprise at the end.

Here's a picture of the tablets.

Past Doctor Tributes

: betawho; May 15th, 20:00

In tribute to the past Doctors in this the 50th year of Doctor Who, I offer up a selection of short Doctor Who adventures staring the Classic Doctors.

If you've never seen the older Doctors, or if you remember them with fondness, he's a trip back to the past, with some all new Classic adventures:

Corridor Running (3rd Doctor and Jo) [words 2,166] - The Doctor and Jo have a hairy day at UNIT HQ when an alien follows them home in the Tardis.

Admiring the Sunset (4th Doctor and Romana I) [words 655] - Romana gets a lesson in universe travel, and the Doctor gets a lesson in paying attention.

A Day at the Beach (5th Doctor and Nyssa) [words 3,999] - While vacationing on the beach, the Doctor and Nyssa are pulled into a search for a missing boy, and pretty soon their quiet day is overturned with mermaids, selkies, and a rampaging sea monster.

To the Rescue (6th Doctor and Peri) [words 4,097] - The Doctor and Peri visit a world where everyone dresses like the Doctor, and they must rescue the royal princess who has just been kidnapped by space pirates.

Enjoy.

Give me an idea for a story.

Neil Gaiman mentioned in an interview that it's often easier to write to a "shopping list" than to just come up with something out of thin air.

I agree. And since I'm in the mood to write something, I'm opening up suggestions. Give me a Doctor, a Companion, and a situation or prompt, and lets see what I can make of it.

A few rules. Keep the Doctor and Companion canon pairings. Keep it G and PG. I don't write sex or slash. And I prefer not to write Doctor/Rose.

Those of you who read my stuff know the kinds of things I write, so what would you like to see me write?

Weatherwise

Title: Weatherwise
Author: betawho
Rating: PG-13
Characters: 11th Doctor, River Song
Words: 1179

Author's Note: This is a little more saucy than my usual fare. Enjoy.
(It was originally written for the "Bad Weather" prompt on who_contest, but it ended up too long.)

Summary: You can just never trust the weather...

Thunder crashed and roared, rain lashed the windowpanes, wind howled through the cracks in the log cabin and hailstones pattered on the tin roof.

The temperature had plummeted, and the cold, clammy feeling of the room had the Doctor and River huddled under a fur blanket beside the hearth, slowly feeding the remains of an antique chair into the fire.

All stories are rated G or PG, the same as the TV series.

Easter Bunnies - (11th Doctor, River Song, Amy, Rory) [short] - The Doctor's caught up in the childlike joy of Easter, to the embarrassment of his Companions. So how do they distract him?

Frustrating - (River Song) [short] - They'd been a long time fighting the Silence, but it was finally done. Victory abounded in the Tardis, and they were all winding down. Except for River, who was still wound up. Victory, propinquity, and a young, sexy Doctor who'd been returning her flirts...
