Please help. .___.
HELLO FLIST. I need some first-readers/betas.
Mostly I want a few more sets of eyes to scan over these stories, because while I am a very nitpicky beta and even worse on my own fics, sometimes I miss stuff, and I like to know what's stylistically working or no before I post. Shorter me: Story and characterization beta is all I REALLY need.
Fandoms: Classic Who, New Who, Torchwood, Supernatural, Sherlock, Dollhouse, Harry Potter, and Amadeus (play/film).
I will take any number of first readers. Please. Warning/Congratulations: Quite a lot of slash under the cut. Most of these are for various fandom auctions, including help_japan, so they are tailor-made and very specific.
More detail on the stories:
Classic Who:
Four/Sarah Jane. Toying with both the regeneration from Three into Four and the strain on their relationship, as well as Four's very obvious xenophobia. Posits that Three and Sarah Jane had the start of a sexual relationship before his regeneration.
Plotting:
WC:
Torchwood:
Ianto/John. The Time Agency has stolen John's memories of Jack, and John is forced to fill in the blanks with the help of Torchwood -- except that in the wake of the 456, all that's left is the dead body of a man he half-remembers calling Eye Candy.
Plotting:
WC:
Aziraphale fic.
Plotting:
WC:
Sherlock/Dollhouse.
Plotting:
WC:
Dumbledore/Grindelwald, Dumbledore/OMC. A young Dumbledore defeats his One, But Unfortunately Evil True Love and is deemed a hero for it. Still very, very closeted, he struggles with the affections of his best friend, Elphias Doge (who he can't in good conscience take advantage of), and takes up with a young male prostitute. An ultimately doomed relationship springs up from a long-extended fling. Dark, but thoughtful!
Plotting:
WC:
Cursebreaker fic #3.
Plotting:
WC:
Amadeus:
Salieri/Mozart. Yup. More slash. I'm exploring Salieri's dark impulses in here. This is purely based on the play and the film, sooo historical stuff should not and really cannot come into the picture. This story suggests that Salieri had a hand in killing Mozart, if by proxy. Odds are not good this fic will have any explicit sexual content, but a lot of darkness. (Think darker Sherlock/Moriarty.)

If you know anyone who would be interested in looking at these types of stories, do forward me on. If you know of comms that actually have betas commenting, I'd also be interested in that. Thanks!
