Prompt 2: Family
Character: Martha Jones
Fandom: Dr Who
Prompt 2
I come from quite a normal family. There's my mum who's a bit of an over achiever, she wants me to do well. She was really proud when I got into medical school. She went around introducing me to all her friends "and of course you remember Martha? She's just starting Medical School." I don't like to say it but my mum is also a bit of a snob. Not much but there are certain things she doesn't do, stores she wouldn't be seen dead in. The Pound Shop for one, she looked at me in horror when I told her about the bargains that I was picking up there. Why should I go and by my shampoo in boots when I can find it cheaper in the pound shop? Its exactly the same shampoo, granted it has foreign writing on the outside but that doesn't affect the contents!
She spends a lot of time worrying about me, I suppose it takes her mind off my dad... and his girlfriend. The less said about her the better. I still love my dad even if he's a fool - he let himself get distracted by the first bit of skirt that crossed his path while my mum was busy with work. Ever since family gatherings have been a nightmare. Leo's birthday being an obvious example.
Still I can't really grumble. I don't know what I'd do without them. Sometimes when I'm alone waiting for the Doctor, I really really miss them. Even the arguments. It can be so quiet in space.
