Creator's Summary: ”If you let me keep it," Ace said, "I could leave at any time, y'know."  

"You could leave even if I had it," the Doctor pointed out.

Ace scoffed. "And leave behind my skin?"

"Anyone can leave anything behind, if they need to," said the Doctor, and there was something very sad in his voice.


Characters/Pairings: Ace McShane, Seventh Doctor, Bernice Summerfield
Warnings/Notes: References to past abuse in Ace's childhood.
Reasons for reccing: This is such a well-characterized and poignant depiction of Ace’s life and her relationship with the Doctor, as well as a great combination of fantasy and sci-fi elements. Selkie!Ace fit surprisingly well for her character.

This is my first rec for the "Claim a Character" challenge.
