Title: Good Enough
Author:

paynesgrey
Rating: All ages
Characters/Pairings: Amy/Rory, Rory, Amy, Eleventh Doctor
Genre: Introspection

Summary: Rory has some doubts about his relationship with Amy now that the Doctor is around.

Rory couldn’t believe it.

Amy’s imaginary friend was real, and her eyes glittered and her smile glowed in his impossible presence, and Rory felt utterly out of place. Amy followed the Doctor with anticipation, a kinetic energy that Rory had never inspired in her.

Compared to the Doctor he was just a plain, ordinary human. His heart sank.

Would he lose her to the Doctor?

Suddenly, he felt her soft hand grab his. His eyes widened as she whisked him away, including him in their adventures.

Perhaps he was good enough for her. He smiled with relief as they ran.

Title: The Company of Strangers

Genre: Missing Scene/Horror

Characters: Ada Gillyflower, The Doctor

Rating: PG for mild body horror

Summary: In darkness and in silence, two rejects find each other. Set during episode 7.10, The Crimson Horror

There was no time, at first, for Ada to know what she had rescued.

He seemed tall, though not freakishly so, his feet dragging on the steps. His clothes were of the plain stuff that all Mother's pilgrims wore, the threads coarse under her fingernails. Nervous of losing her grip, she fumbled the key in the cell door, every jangle and scrape amplified in the confines of the passageway.

Then they were inside; the key turned, and all was well.

Ada traced the contours of her monster's face, the hands set rigid as a doll's, and waited to feel afraid.
