Five drabble

[cheesymice]

Drabble written for dw100's "fair" challenge. It hurt me to see Tegan run around in high heels all the time, plus I think the Doctor is frustratingly adorable when he's clueless, especially about wimmen. :P Five, Tegan, and Turlough, rated G.


“Shall we go?” The Doctor asked his companions. He looked at Tegan twice. Something was… off.

“Tegan,” the Doctor began. He stared at her, puzzled.

“Yes, Doctor?” Tegan asked.

“Didn’t you used to be taller?” The Doctor asked.

Tegan smiled and pointed to her elegant, flat-heeled shoes. “Bought them at that weird bazaar. Aren’t they gorgeous? I can’t believe how comfortable they are too. It’s not fair that women can’t get these on Earth.”

The Doctor stared after her as she entered the TARDIS. “I don’t understand, Turlough. How does that make her shorter?”

Turlough shrugged. “I haven’t a clue.”

*sporfle*

That's lovely. I could never *walk* in high heels, let alone *run* in them like the actresses in DW. I think Sophie ALdred (Ace - Doc Martens) and BP (trainers) had the right idea.

Go Tegan!

Poor Tegan, she was a fashion victim in an action/adventure show. I guess Jo, Sarah Jane, and Romana were lucky that boots were popular in the '70s. Flats were popular in the '80s. They could have at least given the woman one pair of flats for the sake of her ankles!

Thank you! I do love a befuddled Doctor. :D
