 This was honestly a lot of fun.  I do plan to polish this (and maybe post it). 

(see the note in parenthesis)

 Here's my attempt at a (quite detailed) summary of Turn Left. 

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vGrMvt8Gt4g4OQ3pC961v-WMc5gIP3IeyKKXnotWyC0/edit?usp=sharing



If I had to summarize this episode in about a sentence:
" Beetles and alternate timelines ruin everything; but Donna Noble is awesome." :P

 ( So lurking_latinist gave me a prompt recently over on Tumblr.  For a meme that's meant to be 3 sentences.  
Eight/ Charley -  Blank page.   Sp here's my take on it. Enjoy and I love feedback.  Set after Chimes of Midnight) 

Charley had leaned back on one of the overstuffed couches in the TARDIS library, her thoughts racing after their recent adventure.  
The Doctor momentarily stuck his head out from behind the book he was reading ( upside down,  Charley wasn't sure whether to tell him or not) and made his way over to her.   

"Charley," He began,  sitting next to her.  "If there's anything you want to talk about.  About Edith or.."

Charley raised a hand to cut him off.   " I'm still trying to process it all, Doctor.  Honestly.  "  

The Doctor placed a hand on her shoulder in comfort.  "  Oh.  " He said.  "  Well,  I was thinking we could perhaps visit somewhere a bit more calm.  Perhaps a real Christmas?" 

"But , Doctor." Charley started,  getting up and going over to one of the many tables.  "There is something I"d like to do."  On the table, she found a few scrap pieces of paper and a fountain pen.  Within seconds, Charley was madly scribbling. 

The Doctor  watched on, trying hard to read over her shoulder.  "Oh! A new diary!" He exclaimed, as if a cartoony image of a light bulb had appeared. 

"Well if I'm going to travel with you, I may as well start again." Charley explained.  At the top of one page were the words: Further Memoirs of an Edwardian Adventuress.

 ( Today I was thinking about the Library and Donna and Lee.  So have a thing set in the world where they were married) 

Donna stirred a little,  her eyes fluttering open as sunlight started to stream through the windows of their bedroom.  
It was too early- it always seemed to be too early.  

"Morning" she groggily said,  slowly rising and placing a little kiss on Lee's cheek. 

"M, Morning" he said.  He was already up and getting dressed.  "M, Mrs. McAvoy" he added, returning to little kiss. 

That was something Donna was still getting used to.  But she loved it. 

The couple proceeded to the kitchen,  where their children were waiting on breakfast. 

"Mummy!" Ella exclaimed, running over and wrapping Donna in a hug. 

"Well, good morning , sweetheart" Donna smiled, lifting her daughter slightly.  "So, cereal then?" 

The rest of the day preceded as normal- kids went to the park, Lee was working.  But Donna couldn't help but feel an inkling as the sun began to set.  Like, something she was forgetting about.  Leaning back on the sofa as her children were engrossed by the cartoons on TV, a part of her was wondering if it actually mattered. That this was her family,  her life now.

 ( I had to look up what caviar looked and tasted like.  I know what it is... sort of.   I haven't had it before, but I've had sushi , which I can tolerate. I literally asked my phone "what does Caviar taste like?" :) Count is 315 ) 

Mandy opened the door to her dorm room late that afternoon. It was the last day of finals week, and that meant Christmas break was getting closer every single minute.  Opening the door,  she saw her friend Alex, practically jumping for joy and carrying a large cardboard box. Which she prmptly tossed on to Mandy's bed. 

"Early Christmas care package from my aunt" Alex explained, excitedly tearing it open and starting to unbox the gifts.  "She usually sends the best stuff. She's been travelling a lot lately. " 

Mandy eyed the contents. It looked like a lot of wrapped containers and books.  " How do we know what any of this is?" She held up an attached note, that was partially in French.  "I'm only in French 1." 

Alex flipped the note over.  "It's in English on the back.  Says she's been in England and France with her tour group.  Went shopping a little there and when she got back to the states.  "  

Both girls started rifling through the wrappings.  Mostly it was clothes, a huge container of chocolate from England (which Mandy claimed immediately) , and a few books from a Barnes and Noble. But something at the bottom intrigued both girls.  It was a tin with fancy gold and black lettering on it. 

"Caviar?" Alex read,  "Why would she send us this?" 

Mandy inspected the tin.  "I've seen this stuff on TV. It's apparently a delicacy. " 

"Should we...?" Alex began,  trying to pry open the container with one manicured nail.  

Mandy shrugged.  It was worth a try. 

When they managed to open the tin,  both girls took a cursory sniff before tasting a little of the black little bubbles.  

Alex was first, popping a few in her mouth and immediately recoiling.  "Oh! It's salty!" 

Mandy did the same a few seconds later. "It tastes like I just swallowed half an ocean! Why do people eat this?"

 ( Yes I saw the "cop out " part of the challenge.  :P So here's this. Been thinking about the squad lately (

(Team 5/N/T)

Tegan leaned back in the seat,  trying to get at least a little bit more comfortable. "I still don't see why we have to do this" she complained. 

" Well with the TARDIS currently recharging,  I thought we'd try a bit of... a change" the Doctor explained, putting the key in the ignition. 

"Could've at least gotten something bigger than this" Tegan noted.  " We've been in dungeons with more space!" 

Nyssa smiled. "I like it, it's sort of...quaint. This...Beetle, I think?" she asked. 

"Bug, actually." The Doctor corrected as they started down the road. " A yellow Bug. And not bad, I borrowed it from an acquaintance in Maine."  He adjusted the mirrors.  " Reminds me a bit of an old car I used to have." 

Tegan rolled her eyes.  " I just hope you can navigate this better than the TARDIS. Where are we going? " 

" The Grand Canyon" the Doctor answered.   " Rather fascinating if my memory serves." 

"What makes it grand?" Nyssa asked,  with interest. 

" I've seen pictures of it" Tegan said, "It's a great big hole in the ground made of rocks.  Maybe not as grand as it sounds." 

Suddenly, the Bug seemed to stop.  The Doctor checked the gauge.  " It seems we need to refuel."

 (Fun fact-  Somehow I missed the actual challenge post until now.  Oops! I do plan to do it.  So for now have another dw100 post. Because apparently drabbles are kind of addicting) 

Prompt was "drift" Based on an exchange at the end of Dragonfire. 

"Doctor, what is that?" Charley asked, pointing to the odd thing on the scanner. She knew what it looked like, but wanted his confirmation.
 
"That," the Doctor began, his face lighting up with a rather amused grin. "Is a bottle, Charley." 
 
"Well I figured that" she replied, " But what's a bottle doing out in space? Just sort of drifting?" 
 
Retrieving and opening the bottle, the Doctor's amused, almost boyish expression returned.  " I can't believe it!" He exclaimed, setting it down. "She actually did it!" 
 
"Did what?" Now Charley was more than a little confused. 
 
"Mel. She threw a bottle into space!"

 Donna shivered as they stepped out of the TARDIS.  "You know, next time I'm picking the holiday destination, Spaceman!" She exclaimed, hugging herself for warmth.  " It's freezing out here! " 

The Doctor flashed her a smile.  " This planet happens to be a fantastic place for a holiday.  Skiing, slieighing, all sorts of things.  Tegan and Turlough seemed to enjoy it , well mostly" he recalled.

"Who's- never mind. Do I at least have time to go back and change?" Donna asked, already on her way.  "Packed for this, remember? Hot weather, cold weather?" 

----

Somehow their holiday had went sour quicker than expected. Donna paced the floor of the freezing cold cell for the billionth time.

"Explain it to me again, sunshine" she said, seething. "How exactly we ended up in somewhere even colder? Just for sleighing?" 

"Yeah... about that" the Doctor began, as if it was the most normal thing ever.  " No Sleighing Zone.  Forgot to mention that. Here!" Grabbing a worn bit of cloth from the floor, he wrapped them both in it. "Should help, least until we can leave." 

Donna sighed, shifting around.  "Well can you move over a little?  And give me some more of that... blanket? Carpet? What even is that?" She sniffed it.  "Oh, I don't think I want to know.  Just don't hog it, I can't feel my toes anymore."

 This is an idea I've had for awhile.  I'm still playing with it so here's just a little.  

Somewhat inspired by this incredible gifset.  ( I don't think there's major spoilers)  at.tumblr.com/thisbluespirit/bunnykillian-killian-jones-vs-the-real-world/d732kbk0td9p  .  And headcanons myself and PawShapedHeart have talked about.  
I
 don't know what this trope is called but I love it.  

-------

For a pirate, Killian Jones (or Captain Hook, as he was mainly known) wasn't stupid.  You could ask Belle at the library, he'd devour books.  But there were still things that were a mystery.  And Emma was trying her hardest to explain them as best she could. 

He was still not used to the "talking phone" Emma insisted on him carrying everywhere,  or shy there were all these bloody mad birds on the phone.  But he knew if he pressed the Emma button, she'd usually answer.  And he'd discovered some rather brilliant things on that "magic box" (Computer )in Henry's room.  Emma still recalled the day he found Amazon.  

"Swan!" He'd called , full of enthusiasm.  "This is bloody brilliant! It's like the bazaars of Agrabah!" 

But then,  there was the Alexa.  Hook had faced mermaids,  giant squids, and even the Crocodile.  But this little blue device on top of the coffee table was a nemesis he hadn't expected. 

The first time he'd seen the lights go off and on automatically, the pirate grew apprehensive.  Then he heard the thing speak.  

"Love, there's a spirit in the house named Alexa!" He'd ran into the kitchen the next afternoon. "I suggest we vacate immediately!"

 For DW100.  I picked a random one- "Marvel".  Also I'm trying to work on "action" words. 

Standing on a rock,  both time travellers looked up at the glistening green sky. 
 
"It's starting, Nyssa" the Doctor said,  pointing up as a flurry of puffy red and pink clouds swirled in the air, surrounded by a sea of sparkling diamond shaped blue stars.  A few seconds later,  the swirling display collided with a blur of more clouds: this time royal blue and black. 
 
"What do you think?" The Doctor asked, "Beautiful isn't it?" 
 
Nyssa's eyes transfixed on the sky, watching the veritable dance above them.  "Doctor, it's lovely" she said, "Truly marvellous. Thank you for bringing us here."
