Fic Rec: Doctor Who: The Key by jadesfire2808
Spoilers: "Utopia" and "The Sound Of Drums" from New Who
In The Key, jadesfire2808 takes us on an amazing trip through Jack, learning that he cannot die, but the focus of the story is the relationship between Jack and his TARDIS key. That sounds weird but jadesfire2808 really makes it work, using it as a prompt to investigate what Jack does and how he feels, how he changes his thinking, how he changes himself.
No slash, just a damn good read.
The first thing Jack did when he woke up was to check whether or not he was still wearing his clothes. Along with counting body parts, it had become an instinctive reaction, owing nothing to thought and everything to experience.
