Fics like The Tale of the Cyberman With a Soul

Liana Whitaker was an ordinary young woman who was working as a computer engineer in her home city of London, UK when one day, Cybermen invaded the city and took thousands of people to be converted into one of them. Liana was part of that number, however, before her conversion could be completed, the Cybermen were defeated, leaving her behind in the conversion theatre. She was eventually found and rescued by UNIT, and her remaining injuries treated. Her conversion could not be reversed because 90% of her body was already cybernetic, only leaving her face, most of her head, her neck and the upper portion of her chest organic. On the other hand, her emotional inhibitor remained disabled. That said, she never got connected to the Cybermen’s shared knowledge and neural network. Retaining her humanity and memories, but knowing she couldn’t go back to her ordinary life due to her now being a monster, she started to travel throughout the galaxy on her own until she ran into the Doctor, who took her under his wing as a companion. One day, they sit in a park after a mission and the Doctor starts reminiscing about when he had another Cyberman companion. Liana listens with rapt attention.
