Yet more Moroccoverse (AU) notes....
Before the S4 announcements had even been made, Al and I had decided the world needed Moar Donna Noble. .... Had also just watched the TVM and decided the world needed Moar Eight. So, basically, in Moroccoverse, there's a bit of backwardsness going on, and it takes place almost a year after Runaway Bride ...
And I realized I never properly started it. And I really, really want to do something with Donna's train of thought, at least.
But then I realized that if I did, at this point, people would just say "Uh, hi, Partners in Crime, already". Because honestly, I spent so much of that episode with my jaw on the floor going "that's just how she would have run into Eight". I'd already had it in my head that she'd traveled, tried to see the world, tried to be brilliant and fantastic and marvellous and see a little more of things, now that she knew it was so immense out there, and she was so small ... and that she'd gotten completely bored of it because it wasn't the same. And because she was always wondering if the Doctor had listened to her and gotten someone to keep him in line. RIGHT DOWN to the living with her parents and being templess. RIGHT DOWN TO IT. It was creepy to watch, I swear.
Naturally, when the Tardis shows up again, she's there with bells on, and just invites herself right on in. Only, it's a different Tardis inside, and that silly Byron-looking bloke is NOT the Martian she expected, and obviously, things do not go well from there, and Eight wonders why there's a human in his Tardis bellowing bloody murder at him.
And then, naturally, once it all gets sorted out?
"Well, yer still takin' ME with you, wherever you're 'eaded. Push over, lemme see. ... You got ridda the snow globe?"
"Snowglobe? ... Listen, Miss Noble, if what you're telling me is correct--"
"Are you callin' me a liar?"
"Well, I ---"
"ARE. YOU. .... Callin' me ... a liar."
"N-no!"
"RIGHT! ..... carry on."
"......!!!!! *ahem* If what you're telling me is correct --"
"An' it IS!'
"--- and it is. *sigh* You met my future self. So technically, there's no snow globe yet."
"Well you should get one."
"*SIGH* It's going to be a long ride."
"WOT?"
"... nothing."
Also, the first place Eight took Donna was a street-market on another planet, and it weirded her out that she could understand everyone and read the signs. The fact that the Tardis got in her head freaked her out, and she demanded to go back on board. ... After he bought her a necklace, because it was pretty and she wanted SOMETHING for getting the life scared out of her. So he's sort of been letting her get used to the Tardis, and then there's going to be a trip to the 1800s so he can get a new coat - she thought it was a bit silly he was running around in a costume when he could have the real thing - and then they're attempting to go to Gallifrey.
... have I mentioned that I've got a certain Professor who sucks much less than Eric Roberts lurking about with Saxon? ... Because I do. ... mwahahaa.
Anyway. That's Moroccoverse Donna. And even though I absolutely LOVE this new season to bits, I .... I really, really, really love having her hang around with Eight. Because things tend to go like this:
"Look! Look! At this! And that! And the other thing! Isn't it BEAUTIFUL, Donna???"
"... IT SMELLS LIKE CENTURY-OLD LIMBURGER!"
"... well there IS that. *sigh*"
