First up! Plotting with Louise/ @thaliasparks.
Dear Louise, here is my first seeds of an idea.
1. Place it within a year or two of Sarah Jane leaving the Doctor. Call it about 1978. At this point she's an Investigative Reporter who uses her position to investigate everything from contaminated water to politicians, but her main goal is to sniff out and rectify trouble with and for Alien influences.
2. Thalia is up to something in 1978 that attracts SJ's attention. Some sort of swindle where she's using information/tech she's gotten from the future. Selling tech that seems like 'magic'. Or infiltrating some huge, expensive old hotel that the very rich stay at, and using her tech to make it feel like a real 'haunted house' so she can steal their stuff. I'm sure you'd be better at guessing what she might be up to.
3. Another possibility is that Thalia has gotten stranded in 1978 due to busted technology, and comes looking for SJ for help, though I imagine she'd lie about the reasons. Maybe she's not only stuck, but she's basically got Alien 'loan sharks' coming after her. They go on the run (and the offensive), with SJ getting mad of course when she figures out that Thalia has not only lied about why she's being targeted, but also said Aliens getting a foothold on Earth because of what Thalia has done.
----------------------------------------
Off Earth ideas-
4.Any where, any time. SJ and Thalia wind up captured by the same folks for different reasons. They work together to free themselves, save the planet/universe, and maybe the Doctor and reclaim Thalia's VM.
5.There is something Thalia needs/wants badly. She's been told it can be traded for the Doctor's companion (SJ), and somehow finds her and lures her to come with her for a good or important cause of some kind that is really just bait to get SJ's cooperation.
So! That is what I've got so far. I don't mind if we don't use any of it, or if we modify them, or twist them up together. If any piece of this helps or not, that's swell. What do you think?
