"Lost causes" challenge, G, One (...kinda)

He stamped his foot. “I don’t care! You just watch me! I shall steal a time capsule and escape Gallifrey and—and—I shall make everything better!”

“Just like that?” his father asked wryly, seated behind the massive desk and watching his son pace restlessly around the library. “Cure the Universe of all its ills with a snap of your fingers?”

“Oh, of course it won’t be that easy,” his son snapped, not looking up from his moving feet. “But I can’t do anything from here.” He looked up at his father again, defiance radiating off him like heat. “You watch. You watch me.”

He stalked out of the room.

“Hopeless,” his father sighed, affectionately.

One cannot have a temper tantrum without stammering.

Awww. I like it. We get precious few Kid!Doctor stories. And I can imagine a younger First Doctor with that kind of idealism.... Very nice.

I'd written a story a while back, kinda based off the TVM with the Doctor & his dad, and decided to go with that idea with this drabble.

Glad you liked!

Awww, that's adorable. I want to see more kid!Doctor, too. I always feel very wary of trying it in my own fics - I've done it once, I think - because people seem to really hate it, but I love it. This is so cute.

I'm surprised by the reaction I've gotten to this drabble, because--yeah, like you said, the idea of kid!Doctor can be a little...erm, cloying. I've only ever tried to write it once before, myself.

Still, I'm glad you liked it! :-D

Isn't his dad awesome? Now I want to write more with them. :)
