for the lulz: three regenerations that never happened (and probably never will)
For my BFF hatemetoday_xx, without whom my life would be devoid of copious amounts of laughter. (She's to blame for planting these ideas in my head, not me.)

1. He'd just changed, right there in front of her eyes. One moment the skinny bloke in the pinstripes with the gob and the hair was standing there, going on about refractor cells and ... well, something; Donna hadn't really been paying attention, and the next he'd sort of ... exploded. And there was all this light for a moment, and just as suddenly it had disappeared.
The Doctor wasn't standing there anymore. It was --
"Hello, hell -- ooh. New teeth. Always gets me."
The man standing in front of her was only about five inches taller than she was, had a mess of brown hair atop his head that came to the nape of his neck, brown eyes and a distinctly Liverpool accent. The suit seemed just a bit tight (and long) on him, as well.
"Guess I won't be wearing this suit anymore. 'S too bad; one of me favourites, too. Didn't do too bad this time 'round, though, did I? Come here. What do I -- no, hold on. Donna, d'you feel that?"
"Feel what?" She was more or less in shock, so all she could do was follow along.
"That. It's ... I've got this startling urge in me head to chuck strawberries and sing Beatles songs."

2. "You're telling me the Doctor regenerated again?"
"Yes, Jack. I dunno what happened, it just sort of ... and it was so weird!"
"Well, where is he? What's he look like?"
"I dunno! He just took off!"
"Wait, seriously?"
"Yes! I wouldn't even believe it was him if he hadn't proved it himself before taking off!"
"Well?"
"Well, I didn't see much of him. But he definitely hasn't got any kind of British accent anymore -- and, well, he came out pretty attractive -- and he does this bloody fantastic rendition of Billie Jean."
---
3. "So why did you leave the Doctor?"
"I don't know. It's just ... after he regenerated, he was so different, you know? He wasn't anything like the Doctor I knew."
"How's that?"
"He was just so ... cranky. Like he was in a bad mood all the time. I think it was because those black t-shirts were just a bit too tight, personally."
"But that can't be everything that drove you out, can it?"
"Maybe."
"Come on."
"... No."
"Then what was it?"
"Don't laugh. I was taking a shower in the TARDIS and was kind of -- y'know -- singing. And when I went back to the console room later he just -- he was all, "that performance was horrendous, it was like a hamburger without the meat" and I thought, "no, that's it. I'm outta here. See you later, spaceman."
