Description

So I've gotten back into Classic Doctor Who due to going to Whofest at the first of May. I met the actor who played Vislor Turlough(Mark Strickson) and while I hadn't had a crush on Turlough before, meeting Mark made me crush hard on him because he was SO SWEET and charming. I personally think he's more attractive now than when he was Turlough huehuehue.

ANYWAYS, I went back and watched Turlough's episodes(Which is during the Fifth Doctor's era), and the character is introduced on earth, having been exiled there from his planet due to his father's actions. Turlough is approached by the Black Guardian, a celestial villain who tells Turlough he'll get him off of earth if he kills the Doctor. Turlough agrees, but after meeting the Fifth Doctor and getting to know him, he doesn't want to kill him anymore. So, the Black Guardian leaves him to die in a space vacuum, the Doctor saves Turlough though. 
I thought that perhaps Turlough would be plagued by nightmares of the Black Guardian after his enslavement, and Minerva, being the empathic healer she is, would offer to take those memories from him. She takes them onto herself, and the Black Guardian tries to kill Minerva by putting her into a comma, where he tries to break her spirit in her mind. I don't have the details of it all yet, but she'll narrowly escape, and Turlough will feel guilty for putting her in such danger. He also sees how kind she always is and was to him even at the beginning when he was trying to kill the Fifth Doctor. She'll tell him that she could see his heart was good and that he was never an evil person. Turlough falls in love with Minerva, and Minerva falls in love with Turlough also. Minerva's people are a polyamorous tribe, and the Doctor never had a problem with that. (I always felt the Doctor was open to any type of relationship, he's an open-minded person after all)
So yeah, here's Turlough and Minerva being romantic and shit.

Thank you to whoever still watches me and enjoys my artwork and my ridiculous fangirlings.

Vislor Turlough and the Fifth Doctor belong to the BBC
