Disclaimer: Being Human belongs to the remarkable Toby Whithouse and Doctor Who unfortunately belongs to Auntie Beeb, so George and the Ninth Doctor are sadly not mine.
Being Human is about flatmates Annie (a ghost), George (a werewolf), and Mitchell (a vampire) and their journey to find humanity and fit back in to the "normal" world. Doctor Who is about the time traveling alien known as the Doctor and his various companions; who all travel madcap about the universe to see its motley wonders and also horrors.
Set after Being Human: 1x03 and Doctor Who: 1x10 (The Doctor Dances).
I'm going to update once a week, so keep your eyes peeled and I shall type madly away!
The TARDIS solidified in a dank alleyway with her familiar, unearthly vwoorp and her door burst open moments later, three people laughingly colliding in the doorway in their excited efforts to get out.
"Oi, be nice to the superior alien!"
"What, you or me?" Rose laughed at his mock-indignant outcry.
Jack pouted, "Don't I get included in the superior alien category?"
"Not a chance," Rose smirked, "Alien yes, superior definitely not."
"Come on, you two; explorin' to do," the Doctor commanded, already striding purposefully away down the alley to the street. Jack and Rose followed, the former still complaining about his secondary status.
"All I'm saying is--"
"Jack, you don't get to say anything. Not after last week."
"That wasn't my fault! Well, maybe a teeny bit, but how was I to know that-- Hey! No distracting here! Anyway," he emphasized with a glare at the giggling teenager, "All I'm saying is how come Sir Big-Ears is superior to my obviously much more flattering physique?"
"Honestly?"
Jack nodded eagerly.
"It is because of the ears."
Leaving an indignant and snorting Jack behind, Rose ran to catch up with the Doctor. "So, where are we?"
"Bristol," he replied, not breaking his long stride.
"Oh," she said slowly. "When?"
"Present-day Bristol; that is, the year 2009."
Rose's "Why" came simultaneous with Jack's "What's so special about that?"
"Because," the Doctor said melodramatically, pausing and holding up his hands for effect, "The TARDIS sent us here."
"Okay…"
"Either that or she malfunctioned again," he continued cheerfully and set off up the quiet neighbourhood street. His companions groaned and chased after him again.
"So, what're you going to do now?"
"Oh, I don't know, George, how about rip Owen's filthy spleen out?!"
"Annie!" George yelped at her vehement retort. "I know he killed you and all, but I don't think that revenge should be killing him too." He reached over the coffee table and tried to grasp her arm sympathetically, but she jerked it away. He sighed. I seem to be sighing a lot lately.
Ding dong.
Both paranormal beings jumped in surprise. "Who…who on earth could that be?" George spluttered, his voice cracking.
Annie rolled her eyes. "Whoever is at the door, George." Her voice dripped sarcasm which was utterly lost on the neurotic man. She rose from the couch to peek out the window, barely parting the curtains to catch a glimpse of their sudden visitors.
"Annie!" he squeaked, hurrying to her side to pull her away from the glass, "Annie, don't go to the window. You never know if someone might see you!" He flailed his left arm dramatically in the general direction of the World Out There. In his agitated state, he didn't hear the voices outside conferring, let alone notice Annie shaking her head exasperatedly.
"Um, hello? Ghost here?" she said, waving her hand. George pursed his lips unhappily, but refrained from speaking. "Now go and get the door."
"Alright, but you stay in the kitchen!" he ordered nervously, pointing firmly to the beaded doorway to said room. "Normal, completely normal," he muttered to himself. "Normal normal normal. There is nothing weird here. Nothing at all." He clenched his fists and relaxed them, standing before the front door. "Yes…"
Ding dong. "Oh God."
He grabbed the handle, flipped the latch and yanked the door open before his common sense could stop him. "Oh."
"Hello!" a distinctly Northern voice rang out, accompanied by an impossibly wide grin. "I'm the Doctor."
