Let's Talk About Six...
I think we last had a discussion post in June, so we're well overdue for another. (As ever, if anyone else wants to start one, go right ahead.)
I commented in previous discussion posts that One and Two lagged behind the other Doctors in terms of stories on Teaspoon, but that just isn’t true anymore… it’s Six that’s now possibly the least-written Doctor. Funnily enough, I was thinking we should talk Six next anyhow…
While Six’s isn’t my favourite era on TV, there’s still plenty I like about it (and him), and some fun characters introduced (The Rani, Sil, Glitz), the audios and comics gave us Evelyn and Frobisher among others, and he’s wonderfully technicoloured. Personally, I always find writing Six is the most fun a person can have doing fanfic. He’s loud, loves cats and words and he’s very much the Doctor whether you like it or not.
So what Six-era stories would people like to see? Any crossovers that would work best with him? One-off characters or companions you feel should be explored further? Something else?
As ever, to kick things off, here be a mix of weird, wonderful and oddly sensible prompts pulled from the random Pairing Generator.
As usual, I tend to think of them as fun starting points rather than ships, but what you will. (And I realise Maxil is technically Five era, but, um, well…):
The Trickster / Sixth Doctor / hope
Sixth Doctor / Jenny ('The Doctor's Daughter') / an alien planet
Seventh Doctor / Sixth Doctor / trapped
Sixth Doctor / Captain Mike Yates / the follies of youth
Sixth Doctor / Colonel Mace / 1969
Sixth Doctor / Rani Chandra / breaking the rules
Romana I / Sixth Doctor / looking back
Third Doctor / Peri Brown / in the wrong place
Peri Brown / Luke Smith / alcohol
Peri Brown / Darkel (The Inquisitor) / the butterfly effect
Maxil / Peri Brown / taken
The Face of Boe / Mel Bush / no looking back
Mel Bush / Rosita / India
The Corsair / Mel Bush / knife
Jamie McCrimmon / Mel Bush / Sea Devils
Mel Bush / Toby Avery / frozen
Maxil / First Doctor / ice

Denise Riley / Maxil / handcuffs

Evelyn Smythe / Abigail Pettigrew / running out of time
Susan Foreman / Evelyn Smythe / life, the universe, and everything
Evelyn Smythe / Davros / uncertainty
Evelyn Smythe / Wilfred Mott / independence

The Master (Ainley) / Charles Dickens / the sun

The Rani / Jo Grant / don't drink the water
The Rani / The War Chief / years
The Rani / Professor Chronotis / souls
Susan Foreman / The Rani / frozen in time
The Master (Roberts) / The Rani / a letter
