I enjoyed this! I really need to send this to my sister too because when she heard about the AU challenge, the first thing she said was, "Oh, I'd want to read a story where the Doctor is the girl and River's the boy." That's not precisely what's going on here, but I'm not thinking she meant gender-swap as much as role-swap, which is what you have here. I really like your inclusion of Amy. I also like River being The Professor. Reminds me of old!who. And you did a good job with the prompt picture.

Thank you for the feedback! I'm really glad to hear that, because I went back and forth trying to decide whether making River the Time Lady and The Doctor human was a good idea or not and I was a little worried it might be too AU. (Oddly, that was the most difficult part of this challenge, when normally, I tend to write AU more than I write canon.)

I hope that your sister writes her story too, I think it'd be really interesting to see her take on the concept. :)

Ooh, I like the swap. It suits River. And she and Amy make a great team, I can tell, just from that little snippet of interaction.

This was a very fun read. :)
