Ginger and Chocolate and Cheese, Oh My! - Clara
In which the Doctor discovers what she likes. Which is a pretty short list. With cheese and chocolate. And tea. Ginger tea.
"I hate pears." - The Tenth (David Tennant)

When they got back to the TARDIS, the Doctor immediately initiated a race to the kitchen. After being lost for a good hour, Clara decided to admit defeat. The TARDIS really hated her, and this was only solidified by the fact that the next turn she took led her straight to the kitchen. The Doctor was sitting on the chair, her legs swinging above the ground like a child's, and there was an assortment of food on the table.
"Let's get started." Clara sighed, resigning herself to her fate. The Doctor had eaten the strangest combinations of food in her previous generation, and Clara had the feeling that this one would be no different.
Clara soon found that, as she had believed, the Doctor was very picky when it came to food. The list of things that she didn't like far outweighed the list of things she did. Tea, of course, was first (preferably ginger- Clara had a good laugh about that) followed by chocolate and cheese (together of course- this is from the person that invented fish custard) and not much else. However, the list of things that the Doctor didn't like comprised of these food items:
Pears (she didn't even have to try it – smelling it made her throw up.)
Apples (one bite – it was like Snow White, except she didn't fall asleep.)
Bread and Butter (it's Amelia's all over again, the Doctor moaned.)
Bacon (have you got any proper food? Or non-human food? The Doctor asked.)
This weird fruit thing from the planet of Plomitasiton (the planet of fruits, it's basically a gigantic garden.)
Baked beans (at which point they gave up, and let her eat bananas and chocolate cheese.)
After the Doctor had ruined the kitchen, Clara and the TARDIS were very eager to get her out. And, seeing as she was about to collapse from exhaustion, the Doctor seemed perfectly happy to do as they wished. She saluted Clara, who had begun the clean-up effort, and started making what Clara assumed was the long trek to her room.
But Clara, dedicated to her cleaning as she was, didn't notice the bug-like metallic creature scuttle out of one of the shopping bag and towards the console room.

Omg, I have a plot! So, this is the end of the stuff I wrote during the holidays, and the quality should go up from this point onwards. Should.
