Rec: The Benefits of Being Monochromatic, by Primsong

Hello! I'm stellastars and this week I'll be pointing you in the direction of just a few of the fics I have enjoyed at Teaspoon.

I thought we'd kick off the week by starting at the very beginning,

I've been a follower of Primsong's work for a while now, and I avidly second this rec. This story is Classic Who as it would have been in colour, and its easy enough to lose yourself in the intricate plotting and to begin thinking that you might be reading the script for a lost episode. Wonderful stuff!

Oh, god, this rec totally shames me. Primsong wrote this for me in the classic ficathon at the end of last year and I still haven't found time to read it. Shocking. I'm putting it right on the top of my To Do In My Free Time list.

Yes, this is a brilliant story that really deserves reccing. I don't think I've ever read anything that captures the feel of that first TARDIS team quite so perfectly. And on top of that, it's a clever sci-fi story in its own right.
