Someone You'd Admire is an in-progress Doctor Who Alternate Universe series by Transistor.Robot. It essentially weaves the character of Jenny, the Doctor's briefly featured daughter who he believes is dead, into the events of Series 6. After Amy and Rory drag the Doctor into a mystery he wants nothing to do with, the three of them find themselves stuck with Jenny, a tiny version of the Doctor, complete with mild insanity and an abandonment complex. Also, she's not supposed to be alive. And is apparently running around New York City pretending to be the Doctor. Infinitely better than it sounds.
Part 1: Soldier's Grin
Part 2: Liars and Cowards
Part 3: At Any Convenient Time
Part 4: Mr. Spaceship
Part 2/5/Rewrite/Fnarg: Someone You'd Admire
Tropes you'd admire:
- Alternate Universe Fic: What if the 11th Doctor and gang catch up with Jenny from The Doctor's Daughter?
- A Day in the Limelight: Soldier's Grin mainly acts as a stand-alone story focusing on the secondary character Wilf during one scene of the episode Voyage of the Damned. The Tenth Doctor appears briefly, and so does Jenny, but neither of them are the focus of the story.
- Inhuman Emotion: Unlike her father, she's not good at controlling the more 'alien' aspects of her personality. Which says something, considering her dad's in-series characterization.
- Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot: Actually a "giant yellowish hairless flying mammal from space". It's the size of a bus and apparently takes hostages.
- Palette-Swapped Alien Food: Blue pastry things from the planet Exilon vs. hamburgers from a pub in Birmingham. The burgers win.
- The Nth Doctor: Eleventh Doctor, Second Jenny.
- Spider-Sense: According to Amy, the Doctor's got 'timey-wimey senses'. He doesn't appreciate that terminology.
