Learning the Game

Inspired by this week's prompt, I took a fairly literal approach (I'm boring like that). This would have been a terrible picture, except spiritedchaos helped save it. She's become something of my art beta and totally sketched this over so it looked, um, much better. Sadly, her sketch looks better than my finished piece, but you know, we aren't all perfect like her. XD Anyway, I still rather like how this came out. It's really gen but has some implied slash to it (it is me after all).

Adric's bad form is because he wants to keep screwing up so the Doctor keeps, uh, teaching him. It has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that the only cricket I've ever seen is from Black Orchid.

Were I a more talented artist, Nyssa and Tegan would be sitting on lawn chairs behind them, drinking lemonade and politely raising their eyebrows at the Doctor's nearness. However, I'm not very talented, so just imagine it. >_> (I discovered the reason we don't get much hat!porn: freakin' hard to draw!!)
