Title: The Most Heeded of Doctors
Author: katherine_b
Rating: PG
Summary: “Illness is the most heeded of doctors; to goodness and wisdom we only make promises; pain, we obey.” (Marcel Proust)
Characters: Ten and Nurse!Donna.
A/N: This is written for the sixth Travellers Tales with the prompt ‘fever’ and also for me because I was feeling manky when the plot bunny bit. However it is officially dedicated to dana_cz who deserves to feel better. (Although it’s taken so long to write that she probably does by now. Oops.) Hope this helps!
A/N 2: I’ve both read and written fics where the Doctor is ill and the TARDIS helps Donna to take care of him. I thought it might be interesting to see what happened if the TARDIS was also ill and Donna was completely on her own.

( Finally, reluctantly, Donna forces open her eyes. )

Title: Bad Dreams
Author: katherine_b
Rating: PG
Summary: The Doctor needs someone. But does he have anyone to turn to?
Word Count: approx 8,500 words
Warning: Spoilers for End of Time and the other 2009 specials. Just in case…
A/N: This was my first instinctive reaction to what happened in End of Time, before I got carried away with my rewrite/fix-it instead. Be warned, it’s Ten being more emo than I’ve ever written him before (not that I necessarily blame him, mind you). It’s dark, dark stuff, maybe even more emotional (at least for the Doctor) than The Skies Turn Dark. But I think it deserves an airing…

( Visions of his nightmares flash through his mind. )
