Why this must be read: Donna and the Doctor discover something... unpleasant about the psychic paper. Read this so that you can die of laughter. It is side-splitting hilarity, true to their characters.

The Tragic Demise of the Psychic Paper




Another planet, another adventure. One minute Donna is sipping drinks in the sunshine and the next, the Doctor is dragging her off to places with considerably less drinks and sunshine.

Like suspicious alien labs, for instance. It's not that Donna has anything on principle against investigating strange and possibly (make that probably) evil doings, it's just that it would be nice if once they could go somewhere where people could take care of their own problems, so she could stay in the sunshine, sip alien alcohol and relax. It's all making her a bit annoyed. The Doctor is flashing his psychic paper in front of a guard, talking very fast and putting on his most friendly smile, and Donna can just tell what the guard is going to say next.

"And before you say it," she chips in before the guard has a chance to. "No, we're not married, we're not a couple, we're not together or connected in any kind of romantic way."

The guard squints towards the Doctor's psychic paper and looks confused. "It says you're married right here."

"What?" the Doctor says and his eyebrows shoot up higher than Donna knew they could. "It does not!"

"It says we're married?!" Donna glares at the Doctor.

"'Doctor Noble and Mrs Noble'," the guard reads out loud.

"Oh. My. God," Donna says. "Your paper thinks we're married. Has it been doing that all this time? Is that why everyone and their flipping mother always assumes we're a couple?! Because you're running around with BROKEN PAPER!"
