Author: monstrousreg
Word count: 3894
Warnings: ehh, Eleven being Eleventy.
Pairing: Erik/Charles.
Summary: For this prompt: The usual thing where the Doctor pops up on the beach when Erik is about to kill everyone. I like it when Charles already knows the Doctor, but it's not necessary.
Now the point. I want the Doctor to come down on Erik. For Erik to be all "they'll never change, this is the only way, blah blah blah" and for the Doctor to pretty much be all "yea, this isn't happening because I'm here and I'm over 900 years old, am the last of my race, seen more war and genocide than you are capable of imagining and you are wrong."
....you know? Doctor being the Doctor and being our own personal fix-it.
Notes: Unbetaed, and stuff. I uh, admittedly deviated a little from the prompt, and might eventually return and re-do it properly, because this idea just catches my attention every single time.
( “No, because you won’t let it,” the Doctor said. “You’re different now, harder and stronger and older, and taller, you’re very tall, I hadn’t noticed. Were you always this tall?” )
