Imagine: you are the companion.* Maybe you have strange dreams of stone angels... or you get kidnapped by a giant cockapoo with an axe... maybe you travel planets, or countries, or times, or end up facing the flux itself... maybe the Doctor survives, or maybe you can't save her. It's all down to you: your choices.
Did you watch War of the Sontarans and come out of it with a hyperfixation on the Crimean War?
Did you watch Survivors of the Flux and come out of it with a hyperfixation on the early 1900's?
Do you love Classic Who and want to throw in easter eggs and utilize your obscure knowledge in writing?
Do you like working on collaborative projects inspired by Doctor Who?
Maybe write a bit of fanfic to expand upon or alter canon to keep things interesting?
I've written over 60,000 words (and a bit of code and such) for a choose your own story inspired by 13's series 13 (yes, that makes about as much sense as the show.) There are tons of opportunities for folks to dig in and write page(s). You could write some near the beginning on Halloween, or on Planet Time (want to go in the Doctor's timestream?), maybe puzzle your way through Kaarvanista's ship, or navigate various obstacles in the 1900's. I did a deep dive in the 1960's more than once since the series came out and wrote a bunch of that section (but there's still more to write, as ever) and I'm sure there's much more to the Crimean War (which the US education system didn't even mention).
So... fancy a trip in the box?

*when I say 'companion' I mean... probably, possibly, maybe, if you play your cards right (or wrong), definitely one or the other...

What the Flux?! is a choose your own story being created sheregenerated13 (+ fam?) and is not related to BBC's Doctor Who in any official capacity. They own all the rights etc etc. It's basically fanfic but you have a say in what happens <3 <3
I’ve been meaning to make this for everyone asking for weeks and I finally found the time to do it. Thank you everyone who loved this cover, it is truly overwhelming the positive response this has gotten. For all of you that wanted a printable book cover this is for you!
Top = dimensions for a hard cover.
Bottom = dimensions for a soft cover.
And, because I am worried about Tumblr messing with the quality I’ve officially set up a Google drive to share these as PDFs along with the high quality tiffs for anyone that wants to do a custom hardcover (Please see this amazing bookbinding job by @autumn--stars!!!)
Additional thanks to @dathen who let me quote this post for the back panel of this cover~
i don’t think a lot of people understand how important it is to me that Ryland Grace, the main character from a popular book and movie, being commonly headcanoned as aroace with little to no romance involved. his relation to rocky as a companion and best friend is the relationship that people talk about the most. the power of friendship saved the day with no unnecessary b-plot romance. local man loved humanity and his alien best friend so much he saved both of their galaxies and planets. that’s so awesome, sometimes i’d never thought i’d see something like this
The Doctor having to think up a fake name under pressure and resorting to companion mashups is better than any amount of John Smiths. I listened to an audio the other day where he introduced himself as Jaime Sullivan
Plus there’s even more fun to be had with Thirteen since so many of the companions are girls
“What’s your name, ma’am?”
“Uh- I- uh- Jaime—no, wait, that’s not right, is it? I mean, Vicki…that’s a girl’s name, right? Let’s just say Mel. Melanie Noble. And this is Yaz!
