Drabble: Irreconcilable Differences

[written_leaves]

Of course, Barbara and Ian's household could hardly be overlooked - but then, neither could his own former behaviour.

Irreconcilable Differences

Barbara gasped. “But we’ll never see him again!”

Ian frowned in concern, keeping a hand to his son’s shoulder.

“Bosh, of course you will,” the Doctor assured, bouncing confidently. “I’m much better at steering now.”

Barbara peered in at the tangled nearly unrecognizable mess that was the TARDIS. “Can it even be steered? Ian, look at it! There’s no way I’m going to let our son go off in that.”

“Oi!” the Doctor protested, insulted.

“Absolutely not, Doctor,” Ian stated. “John stays here. Who knows where he’d end up otherwise; remember you never did get us home.”

“Picky, picky,” he sighed.

Never doubt The Doctor. Upsetting a Time Lord is as dangerous as upsetting a Wizard.

Ah, how our past actions come back to haunt us! ;-) Of course, Ian is right - they finally had to abandon him after two years of being tossed all over the universe and use a Dalek machine to finally get back to their own home, ha...! I love Ian and Barbara.
