dw100, using Challenge 019: Dressed / Undressed.
Spoilers: The Lodger.
Summary: The Doctor is confident in his ability to be normal.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Doctor Who, or the characters.
Trying to be a normal human is interesting. There’s so much to remember; paying rent, proper greetings, being complimentary to the landlord…
Showers are great; all that hot water, and good acoustics for singing. Just have to remember to undress before standing under the water, and put something on when you get out. Towels are good. Wet floors are slippery, and electric toothbrushes aren’t effective weapons, even if you’re in a hurry because someone might be in danger.
Still, the Doctor feels confident that he’s fitting in. He can be just as normal as the next man if he tries.
The End

Eleven turned out not to be so bad at fitting in as a human. He just seems odd at first.

Date: 2016-02-11 01:06 pm (UTC)*past Rose. (We already saw her enough as it is)
*present Donna. (this made me sad and annoyed)
*future Martha & Mickey.
*Sarah Jane (last appearance on the series)
*Jack depressed over Ianto. I don't think it was the right time to match make him.
When Moffat took over, it was like a reboot again.
I was annoyed that RTD made it so that Wilf knocked four times. Didn't the Doctor tell him about that?.
Sometimes I think it would have been better if Ten had "died" earlier without the six specials. I was really over the angst.

Date: 2016-02-09 02:16 am (UTC)His more weird when his talking to people as himself. It's handling human behaviour is when he might get it wrong.

Date: 2016-02-09 11:42 am (UTC)The Doctor assumes people understand everything he's saying, and gets confused when they don't. He also doesn't really understand human reactions all that well.

Date: 2016-02-09 12:17 pm (UTC)I thought Clara got a little bit defensive when he decided to share some knowledge in front of her class.
I like how Eleven was enthusiastic about his name badge when he was working in a retail shop. Something Rose would have been bored with.

Date: 2016-02-09 01:02 pm (UTC)Clara was supposed to be doing the teaching and got upstaged by the janitor, so yeah, she was definitely defensive. She didn't like someone else, even the doctor, getting more attention when she was trying to do her job. In a way that's fair, because it was her class and she no doubt had the lesson planned out. Students get distracted easily enough without someone else having their say in mid-lesson and as teacher, she's supposed to be the one who knows stuff.

The Doctor just can't help himself. He likes to share knowledge. Most people underestimate cleaners since they think they are ill educated because of their job status.
