Interesting pairing.  It seems odd to me that I hadn't thought of it;
now that I've seen it, it seems very interesting, almost inevitable.
A lot could be done with this idea.

Haruhi looked down.  What had she just been thinking?  Of course
she had tentacles; didn't everybody?

Now as to using them on Asahina...

[I really thought this is where you were going when the world blinked 
out like that.]

Not quite sure I can place the Doctor from the description.  I wouldn't
call David Tennant's hair "black", but it doesn't seem to describe any
predecessor either.

Cruel of you not to tell us what the Doctor's meter told him.

Well, "Donna" seems to have only been used once, in the recent fourth 
season of the restart,
for a Doctor's Companion, so this would almost have to be David Tennant.

However: the Doctor has on occasion had multiple companions, going as 
high as three
companions on at least two occasions:  the beginning of the series with 
William Hartnell,
and with the fifth doctor, Peter Davison.  And it seems more like Haruhi 
to somehow
drag the entire SOS Brigade into this adventure.

Nice job.  Thanks for writing and sharing!
