some goodness to get that bad taste out of my month.
Oh God, Viva Laughlin is even more horrid than I thought possible. Thanks for making Peter creepy and giving the role of Natalie to someone who can't act, guys. Oh, and for making Danny Jack straight. Us Blackpool fans really appreciate it.
(Oh, for fuck's sake, they're using "Fat Bottom Girls" for the heavy girl, and actually have the audacity for the ugly accountant to look disgusted at the idea of her taking off her top. Fuck. off.)
ANYWAY. Let's move onto something less revolting. Some fantastic Doctor Who recs, maybe?
+ Ten (pun kinda-sorta intentional) Doctor Who story recs +
01. Day is done. by orange_crushed (Ten-centric, Ten/Rose, PG-13)
She felt so much and knew so little about it, and remained a wonder to him.
[not a single wasted word.]
02. The Art of Not Having Sex by misscam (Ten/Rose, Ten/Martha, Ten/Master, implied Barbara/Ian, NC-17)
They're definitely doing it. It's just not sex.
03. Inhibitions (And Jack's Lack Of) by _afterism (Ten-centric, Ten/Jack, R)
He could only carry through with it because Jack didn't recognize him. Set before series 3.
[been meaning to rec this for an eternity.]
04. Terrific Super Thoughts by orange_crushed (Ten/Rose, PG-13)
"Like comets or asteroids. Strawberry jam. Thank God you don't taste like Bakelite."
"I haven't- wait. Yes. Who told you?"
"Tommy," she grins. "Said you licked it like a spoon. You nutter." Set after "The Idiot's Lantern."
05. Crossing the Bar by smithy161 (Ten/Jack, NC-17)
The Tenth Doctor is visited by a version of Jack far older than even he can imagine. Jack has come back to say two things; 'thank you' and 'I'm sorry'.
[the last line broke me.]
06. Not Here by lunasky (Ten/Jack/Martha, NC-17)
Jack and Martha find some peace with their feelings for the Doctor. Set during "The Sound of Drums."
07. Neverland by orange_crushed (Rose-centric, Ten/Rose, PG)
"You'll see," Jackie says, sagely. She nods towards the next room, where Pete is sprawled on the sofa, matching his second daughter snore-for-snore while the evening news blares around them. "Life goes by, things happen- what you'll really want is a good, steady man who'll rub your feet."
[the wendy/peter pan parallels = ♥♥♥]
08. Young Lions by orange_crushed (The Doctor & The Master, PG)
They're the cleverest boys at school.
"No, you're not," says their professor, who is wrinkled as a page and has begun to smell like the looms he was strung from. "You only *think* you are."
It makes no difference. Set pre-series.
09. Behind Closed Doors by hippiebanana132 (Ten/Rose, PG-13)
She knows what he’s going to say next. She’s known it was coming ever since they lost the TARDIS. Set during "The Impossible Planet."
10. Mercy by orange_crushed (Ten/Rose, PG)
The glass shatters around him, but it only lasts an second. Set during "The Girl In The Fireplace."
[yes, I think I may have a new favorite author.]
