There were times when the Doctor didn’t have companions.
Not many, granted, but they seemed to stretch out far longer than they should, and it always felt strange to not have anyone to explain things to or get help from or just have around. He could do his job, sure. He didn’t need another set of hands to overthrow the tyrant king of Malshek, and he was certainly quite capable of rescuing Marilyn Monroe from the Dejorni assassins on his own, and he had never required much in the way of assistance with the daily maintenance of the TARDIS.

i especially liked the bit about "Saving a civilization was all well and good, but there was always a persistent little longing for having someone to save it with."..

SoYeah.
..also, i have to say, i really was only kidding and i din't expect you to write anything, but i am so fantastically glad you did 'cause words don't exist in my head to tell you how awesome this is to me!
Glad you liked it so much! :D Psssh, I was glad to write it, it was fun. (Writing Doctor Who snippets is deeply satisfying. Deeply satisfying. So satisfying that it makes me not want to go back to the BDPS, which crawls like a crippled snail and has very few opportunities for making up names of alien civilizations at all...)
heh. glad i could distract, er, encourage you along those lines! i've been lovin' on the Doctor for a ridiculous long time now, so i understand completely ^_^
