This is a nice  bit of backstory for the two of them and I could definitely see something like this happening. Especially given that these two are established as...not exactly the best students.

Drabble.
Characters/Pairings: First Doctor, Barbara Wright

Creator's Summary: Charley brings back a surprise from an alien marketplace.
Characters/Pairings: Sixth Doctor and Charley Pollard 
Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: For the "Alien creatures/magical beasts" box on Rec Bingo.  I might be biased since this was written for me,  but this is a delightful story.  It is always nice seeing the Doctor and companion with animals to love.  This author gets their voices and character perfectly.

Characters/Pairings: Shirley Anne Bingham
Warnings/Notes: None/spoilers for "The Star Beast."

Reasons for reccing: This is such a beautifully done little look at Shirley Anne in the moment of the meta-crisis release. It packs so much into a short space, is poetically written, and it's great just to see something for this character, who I really liked in the episode.

Characters/Pairings: Thomas 'Hex' Schofield, Ace McShane, Seventh Doctor

Warnings/Notes:
n/a

Reasons for reccing:
It's a really sweet and adorable fic; I always love the idea of the companions talking after they've returned to their lives on earth, and this one has an added bonus of the Doctor sending a message to them. It's so cute :')

Reasons for reccing: It's great to see Sarah Jane and the Thirteenth Doctor meeting and it's in an interesting way, when the Doctor causes problems for Sarah Jane by using her name.
