That was amazing. Totally in-character for both Fitz and the Doctor.
This is definitely going into my personal canon, and I'll never look at the 9th Doctor's jacket without thinking of this piece.
Don't know that much about Fitz or the eighth Doctor but this and other stories are peaking my interest. How can I get a hold of some of the Eighth Doctor novels? I live in the States (Maryland) so finding them here is next to impossible.
Author's Response: I also live in the States. I have gotten all of mine off amazon.com. You can get most of them fairly cheap, though there are a few that it is almost impossible to find at a reasonable price and for those I go to http://www.drwhoguide.com/books.htm for really good synopsis.
