Story: 'The Sacred Art Of Stealing'
Author: Netgirl_y2k
Rating: All Ages
Word Count: 459
Author’s summary: 'A very serious and in no way silly story in which the Doctor attempts to pinch Sarah Jane's companions.'
Characters/Pairings: Ten, Sarah, Maria, Luke, Clyde
Warnings: None

Recommended because: I'm a sucker for companions who become more Doctorish than the fellow himself, and the vision of a weary (but quietly smug) Sarah telling Ten to bog off as he attempts to half-inch her kids is a peach. Short, daft, and funny. (And given the apparent casting situation for SJA season 2, I'm declaring the final paragraph canon.)

Can't really blame the Doctor for trying to "steal" one of the kids. I liked all of his attempts, and their eventual fates. Very amusing story!

Sarah has the best companions, truly. They'd be an unstoppable Team TARDIS.

Yay! I know she's been recced a fair bit here already, but this one made me cackle so much I couldn't resist.

Oh, I love this one! My favorite part ever:


"Mum said that if any strange men offered to take me anywhere I was to say no."

"Excellent parental advice that, but I'm sure she didn't mean me."

"She used your name."

"Ah."


BEAUTIFUL. <3

I could quote the whole thing, really. But yes, can absolutely imagine Luke saying that. :)
