4 new stories on the rec list
I had a thought tonight that maybe I ought to post a note whenever I update my rec list. I should really post the rec list in question to the comms - just haven't got around to doing it yet. But will do, really, will do!
Tidewater, by
orange_crushed
Characters: Ten, River Song, Rose, Donna
Rated: PG
Spoilers: Silence in the Library
Summary: "The dragons are a myth," she says. Another chunk of the wall falls in, rolling past her, with a great grinning lizard's head at the top. She scowls at it. "They're just a legend. This is a research site, not a fairy tale." - "Oh ?" he asks. - They run.
Why it’s in my rec list: Never thought anyone could do this, making me like a character that drove me bonkers in the actual show, but
orange_crushed succeeded in giving life and depth to River Song, and giving a purpose to her presence.
Still Lost, by
unfolded73
Pairing/Characters: Ten/Rose, Jack, Donna
Rating: R
Number of chapters: 16
Spoilers: Through The Doctor’s Daughter
Summary: This was born out of the idea that being so close to Rose in Partners in Crime left some vague impression on the Doctor's brain. And on all the discussion about the Doctor's song ending.
Why it’s in my rec list: I’m a sucker for Ten/Rose reunion fics, and this one is very well written, showing the Doctor’s grief and how afraid he is that the memories he’s clinging to will fade.
Cheating Time, by
dark_aegis and
wendymr
Characters/Pairing: Ten/Rose, Jack, some OT3
Rated: PG13
Number of chapters: 9
Spoilers: up to Voyage of the Damned
Summary: He's saved the universe over and over again. He's lost everything, including his own race. Doesn't the universe owe him something in return?
Why it’s in my rec list: It’s got everything I like in fanfic: Post-Doomsday angst, a tortured Ten, Daleks, Ten/Rose sensuality, and Jack Harkness. And as it’s co-written by the brilliant
dark_aegis and
wendymr it’s got a Tissue Warning of course!
Don't Ask, Don't Tell, by
wendymr
Characters: Eight, Nine, Rose, Jackie
Rating: PG
Number of chapters: 3
Summary: Ask not-we cannot know-what end the gods have set for you, for me.
Why it’s in my rec list: First, it made me discover Eight, whom I was not familiar with. Second, it’s got some brilliant Nine/Jackie interaction, hilarious and emotional in turns. Third, it’s stamped with
wendymr’s talent.
