Anyway, I was rewatching Claws of Axos again, and this little drabble crawled into my head, made big puppy eyes, and asked me to give it a home. So I figured I could at least afford it the dignity of being posted.
Hurrah for my first foray into Classic!Who!fic. Drabbles do too count.
ETA: The text might show up gray, because my format fails. Just highlight it if it does; it should be normal when viewed in my format.

A/N: Erm...I'm not sure what the situation would be for this. Feel free to imagine your own. Also, I am not entirely certain that my made-up TARDIS mechanics are accurate, canonical, or make any sense. Suggestions are appreciated.

Jo leaned against the TARDIS wall. In spite of their dire situation, she couldn’t help but be amused by the scene unfolding before her.
“I hardly think that’s my fault, Doctor. The booster output’s completely misaligned; it’s disproportionate to the signal feed.”
“Well, that wouldn’t have been a problem, would it, if you hadn’t turned it up all the way!”
“I had to turn it up; we’d never have escaped the gravitational field if I hadn’t. And it wouldn’t matter either way,” he said deliberately, “if you ever thought to repair this antique.”
She half-expected them to start throwing things.

(I just finished watching "Mind of Evil" - well, by "just", I mean "right before getting sucked into fic-writing and winding up with something twice as long as I expected" - and so I was very definitely in the mood for this.)
And I would love to see the situation framing this. It's full of awesome plotbunnies - I like the idea of the Doctor, the Master, and Jo stuck in the same TARDIS, trying to save the universe or something. It would be awesome!
So, yes. Well done! I heartily endorse moar classic who fic! :D

...and there go the ideas. I thought of the dialogue before I thought of a situation for it to fit into, so I tried to adapt it into drabble form so I wouldn't have to think about it, but now you've got me all curious. :)
Anyway, thank you for commenting! I'm glad you liked it!

(I really, really want to write something for Delgado!Master. There is a mostly finished fic somewhere on my hard drive where he meets up with a pre-Doctor Martha Jones and Dramatically Significant Conversations ensue. Hrm.)
Looking forward to more of your fic!
