Fic: Five Times Polly Patched Up Ben
I did warn you, didn't I? (Not yet up on Teaspoon, but in time...) Edit And now it's been approved, for all the world to see.
Title Five Times Polly Patched Up Ben (And One Time Ben Got To Do The Honours)
author lost_spook
Rating All ages
Characters Second Doctor, Ben Jackson, Polly, Jamie McCrimmon
Summary In which Ben gets injured by everything from Cybermen to TARDIS appliances. Luckily for him, Polly's always there to pick up the pieces. More or less, anyway. (Being an unashamedly Ben/Polly fic, of course).
Written to cheer myself up on a rainy morning last week and because I don't seem to be any nearer to writing anything sensible with Ben and Polly in it and there really can't be enough fic with the two of them in for my liking. It's bad enough that so many of their episodes are missing.
I met them first through novelisations and PDAs and so on, all of which coyly suggested that just possibly, maybe, Ben might like Polly and vice versa. Finally getting to watch The War Machines and discovering there was nothing coy or maybe about it amused me no end. (Although possibly not as much as Polly in The Power of the Daleks when she harangues her kidnapper for threatening a helpless female and tells him he wouldn't be so brave if he was facing "a real man - like Ben!" Mind you, Ben's worrying that Polly only wants a bit of rough to mess about with is also... Is this still Doctor Who? How can you not love them?)
