Apologies to all, especially Donna and Lisa!(being the joint inspirations)

NB: I do not intend to continue. Please feel free- at your own risk! Laughing

The TARDIS moved forward with a random series of whistles, clicks and whirring lights, all of which were listened to with grave attention by the doctor.
“We have a problem,” he announced portentously after due consideration of the various whistles, clicks etc. “We are being invaded!”
“So you keep saying,” returned the Head with weary patience. “By daleks, was it not?”
“Yes! I mean no! Our newest problem is not the normal kind of dalek. They can be defeated by anyone with the know-how. This breed is rather different- a mutant that has originated in the evil mind of the T.E.M.!”
“The T.E.M.?” returned Hilda, weakly. “What is that?”
Dr Who heaved an exasperated sigh. Honestly, this woman was such a pain. First of all, she’d demanded to know what his name was, insisting that ‘who’ was not a name at all. Then she had wanted to know the ins and outs of TARDIS and the daleks. How he wished she would just shut up and let him sound impressive, without asking difficult questions!
“Nobody knows what it is,” he told her austerely. “I don’t know. You don’t know. Even the TEM doesn’t know!”
“I see,” said the Head, really not seeing at all, but deciding that the only thing to do was to humour this man before he did something really dangerous. “You were going to tell me about these mutant daleks?” she prompted at last, with a wistful thought for Derek, who really had been rather- cute. For a machine.
“Ah, yes.” The Doctor stopped, frowned into space, played with his floppy bow tie, and patted his curls. “Mutant daleks. Where was I?” He glared at Hilda.
“I’ve no idea,” she told him as politely as she could.
“Mutant daleks! Of course. They’re dangerous. Very dangerous. Capable of all sorts. You don’t want them anywhere near your little darlings, Miss Er-um- what did you say your name was, my good woman?”
“Hilda Annersley,” returned the owner of the name with a chilliness that should have turned Dr Who into a block of ice. Fortunately, he was not as sensitive as the girls of the Chalet School, and continued quite happily.
“Miss Annersley. Well, you see. Miss Annersley- may I call you Hilda? Er. Maybe not. Well-um. What was I talking about?”
“Mutant daleks!” the Head repeated, keeping her temper under control with an effort.
“That’s the thing, though,” Dr Who continued in a confidential tone, “they’re not daleks at all!”
“That’s because they’re mutants,” the Head said patiently, wondering why she was even attempting to keep this conversation on some kind of track.
“No. Of course they’re not,” the Doctor said thoughtfully. “I mean, they’re not even called daleks, which is quite a sensible name as names go. They have all sorts of names. There’s donnaks, and emmans, and lisats, and carolynps and rachaelps- only I can never work out how to pronounce those last two,” he complained. “Do I pronounce the ‘P’ or not?”
“I-I don’t know,” the Head stammered, by now thoroughly shaken out of her normal composure.
“And then there’s patws- that’s even worse! And KB! How do you pronounce that as a word? You should know. Aren’t you an English teacher?”
“I don’t think you’re supposed to,” the Head gasped. “Shouldn’t it be ‘K’ and then ‘B’- KB!”
“Perhaps,” the Doctor agreed in a tone that implied otherwise. “What about catherinebs?”
By that time the Head was beyond coherent speech, but the doctor carried on, muttering about other creatures who formed part of this mutant species- nikkils, crashbbs- which really confused him- patmacs- he liked that one, it was so simple. With so many different creatures floating around, he thought pathetically, how was he ever going to manage? Especially since this stupid woman beside him was either an idiot or comatose. He couldn’t decide which. She so obviously didn’t have a clue about time travel, or the many other weighty matters that occupied the mind of a person as great as Dr Who!

*giggles madly* Great beginning, Lisa! I'd love to see you continue it, though!

#3: Author: Lisa_T, Location: Belfast

Posted: Thu Jan 22, 2004 5:13 am

*petulantly* but I haven't got any ideas! This was inspired by Lisa's comment on my profile- she said she'll call me 'LisaT' at the gathering, and Donna, when I was chatting to her later, said that that's what *she* was gonna call me. I said in that case, I'd call her 'donnak' (being the first part of her email addy) and then realised that it sort of sounded like 'dalek' and the rest... Laughing

*giggles* that's really good. I can see why you are not planning to continue, though I wish you were!

Anyway, Pat can add Dr Who to the list of protectors from the TEM now he's found the new board.

Which Dr was it? I know you said blond curls and floppy bow tie but I get them muddled.

*lol* I'm not sure how successful Dr. Who would be against the TEM!

Not sure about the DR as protector if he is classing us all as some form of mutant dalek. Pirate

Blond curls would be Colin Baker's doctor, but he didn't quite have a bow tie. More of a long tie tied in a big bow.

***Well, since Lisa doesn't seem to intend to continue, and I've got some spare time, I thought I'd resurrect this drabble - briefly, as I know very little about the DR.***

Miss Annersley thought for a moment. "So, does this mean that PatWs are the worst dalek?" she inquired, thinking that was quite a wussy name for a machine that had destroyed entire worlds.
The Doctor shook his head and sighed resignedly. "No. The worst are Ciorstaidhs, Lisses, Xanthes, Chloës and the worst, the absolute worst, is..." his voice trailed off as he was frozen, petrified at the very thought .
"What?" cried Miss Annersley impatiently.
The Doctor leaned close, looked around and then whispered the name to strike terror into all hearts. "Vikkis."
"Vikkis?" the Head spoke incredulously. "But Doctor, that's only a name!"
"I know, isn't it frightful? And the real thing is even more horrifying. The very sight of a Vikki will scald your eyes and blind you. And should you dare to speak, the Vikki will spot you and tear your innards out and..."
Hilda interrupted. "No, no, no, don't be so silly, Doctor. Vikki is a NAME! It's a girl's name! In fact, Vikki is the name of our Senior Mistress. Where on earth you got these silly ideas from, I'll never know!"
The Doctor looked blank.
"You have a Vikki as your senior mistress?"
"Yee-eess," Hilda spoke encouragingly but resignedly.
"And you're still - alive?"
"Evidently." Hilda was fed up of this dimwit. "But Vikki isn't the worst when you arouse her temper."
"Not? Then, what is possibly worse than a Vikki? The Tardis told me only of those of whom I have spoken."
"Doctor, have you ever been outside the Tardis?"
"Not personally, I mean, I've only been in this body three weeks. Come to think of it, when did you arrive? And how can anything possibly be worse than a T.E.M.?"
Miss Annersley bristled. "I am the Head Mistress, and as such, you will not be so impertinent!" The Doctor cowered visibly. "And I never answered your question."
"What question?"
"What is worse than a Vikki. I'll tell you what's worse, you insolent, pathetic little man. A Hilda Annersley."

With that, Hilda lashed out her tongue and struck the Doctor dead. Not dead so he'd come back in another form, properly dead. He was too annoying for Hilda to let him live.

All those girls claiming she had a tongue that could take the skin off you, she reflected. And they were right.

*strangles on giggles* You people are nuts! You take nuttiness to a whole new level! This must be the only place in cyberspace where supposedly intelligent people manage to have a conversation about what duvts sound like.

My duvet is mute, unfortunately the bed isn't. I can't leave it in the morning! (There, Rachel! Nicely gutter proofed just for you!)

Your bed isn't mute? You mean it squeaks and bangs in the night or when you are . . .

(There Lisa - see all the good your supposed gutter proofing did!)

I love my bed, although I love my duvet more!!!! In fact I love it nearly as much as my fridge-freezer!!!

Can you hear it from where you are now, Xan? You are at home, aren't you?

#120: Author: Xanthe, Location: London/Cambridge

Can't quite believe that in seven pages of a drabble, we've got two bits of story and several posts about duvets talking! Ahem!

What can they do to her? She's Senior Mistress!

#134: Author: Vikki, Location: Possibly in hell! It's certainly hot enough.......

I'll leave the names up to people's imaginations!!

And KB, I believe I stopped being Senior Mistress at the same time you stopped being Head Mistress!
