So I was reading the Terrance Dicks novelization of some of the Second Doctor's stories to see what descriptors for him are used, and I really love in "The Web of Fear" one that Dicks gave us an actual scene where the Doctor and the the Brigadier have their meet-cute.
Because as much as I really like Web of Fear, I think one of the main problems with it (other than the fucking missing episodes) is that for such an influential character for the Doctor, they basically meet off screen. Like, this is the first time we see them together:
Which will eventually turn into this:
And since this was written in '76, there's even a little paragraph explaining that this character will eventually become a really big deal to the Doctor. Idk if Lethbridge-Stewart was originally going to be such a big character, so I just think it's kinda cool that he retroactively gives him a slightly better introduction, even if the original one is still pretty fire.
Day Sixteen: Favourite Friendship
Well, this was more hard to choose can I initially believed, but one that I seriously like is the Doctor-Brigadier friendship (mostly the 2nd or 3rd Doctors with the Brigadier)
(Remember when everyone was obsessed with these like 10 years ago?xD - I'mma do this, and I implore you to do so... And tag me in it so I can be nosy? Probably reblog them too lol)
