Drabble Tag!
Three weeks for Dreamwidth as snuck up upon us, so I thought it seemed an excellent excuse for a wee game of drabble tag.
For those new to this game, basically, someone leaves some prompts, someone else replies with a drabble (or comment fic of other size, given the character limit on dreamwidth comments, that can be a fairly large fic) and leaves up to three prompts for the next person, who in turn responds with their own drabbles/comment fic and leaves their own prompts. Your responses can be as long or as short as you like, I've always thought the point of them being drabbles is that its low stress, lots of people with limited time can take part and it gets lots of people talking and writing and sharing and its all rather fun.
You can write pairing fic or gen, but given the nature of the comm please keep the focus on the companions themselves. I've stuck a couple of prompts in the comments to kick things off, feel free to interpret them as you will. If you're struggling to come up with your own prompts to leave then...well the Doctor Who Random Pairing Generator may be of interest to you.
Also, in the spirit of the fest, please don't cross-post your fills outside dreamwidth until the three weeks are up.

Barbara/Ian, Not Again
Ian glanced at her in the semi-darkness of the maze. “If you’ve got any better ideas, I’m listening.”
“Oh, well,” Barbara said, pulling a face at him. She removed her cardigan. “If I must.”
Ian set to work unravelling it, and then tied the end to a wooden support. “You can have my jacket.”
“That isn’t the point,” said Barbara. “I don’t see you doing any knitting – and what happens if I run out?”
“That’s hardly the end of the world.”
Barbara’s lips twitched. “At this rate, it very well might be!”
