Author's Summary: A Moroccan Beach is an excellent place for a reunion.
Characters/pairings: Tegan Jovanka, The Doctor (5th) 
Warnings: None

Recced because:
I'm recommending this story because it, and the series it belongs to, have been a guilty pleasure of mine for quite some time. Back in the day, before new who existed, the 5th Doctor was my Doctor, and Tegan was my favourite companion. This story stood out to me at the time, not only because it was well written, but also because warinbabylon managed to keep both Tegan and the Doctor in character, despite the way they parted and the years that had passed for them both. Also, I have a soft spot for well written kid!fic, and this is just perfect. I would highly recommend reading the rest of the series if you like this story. This story is essentially pairing free, however the series as a whole is Tegan/Doctor.

There was something sweet, bittersweet and downright outrageous about the Doctor sitting in the sand with a pail of wet grains between his legs teaching Amy how to drizzle the perfect pile. Although, Tegan thought as she adjusted her sunglasses and glanced over her son's head to the duo, she shouldn't have been too surprised

Oh, I do love warinbabylon's writings. Any idea whether she'll ever return to her Destined series? She was in the middle of the Frontios story and never finished it!

I know! I wish she would return, but I suppose that given it's been a while now it may never happen. I loved that series to pieces and I'm sad it was never finished... but then, at least we have a fair amount to be going with, yeah? :)
