Story: Not Another Duplicate
Author: ClocketPatch
Rating: All ages
Word Count: 2272
Author's Summary: In which the Doctor meets a Harry.
Characters/Pairings: Harry Sullivan, Fourth Doctor, Sarah Jane Smith
Warnings: None.
Recced because: It seems all too rare these days to find a good Harry-fic - and this is a good Harry fic, be in no doubt - but even more so to find one that focuses on the Doctor and Harry. In this, Harry and the Doctor have an accidental non-linear meeting that manages to confuse both of them, and it’s a joy - with a double dose of Harry, no less...
Have an extract to whet your appetite, (should you need it):
"I am generally known as 'the Doctor'," the man said. His smile was frighteningly toothy. "Have you been hit on the head, Harry? Possessed by an alien entity intent on destroying the Earth? Cloned?"
"Not that I know of," said Harry. The Doctor responded by pulling what looked like an otoscope out of his pocket and waving it over Harry. The tool buzzed.
"Are you sure you're feeling all right?" Harry asked, taking a step back from the whirling instrument. "It is rather warm out today, and in that get-up you're risking heatstroke. It can cause confusion…"
"Cloned!" the Doctor shouted. Harry flinched. "It makes perfect sense. They haven't even got the hair right! Tell me, who are you, and what have you done with the real Harry Sullivan?"
"Now see here," Harry said, feeling both affronted by the man's rudeness and concerned about his state of mind. "I don't know what you're banging on about with clones and the like, but I am the real Harry Sullivan."
