Notes: I love this Donna voice to absolute bits. It's the way she thinks, the cadence of the words. It's very her, and this story makes me smile hugely! Love it!

Notes: There are a lot of stories out there that are big "What if the Master ends up in the duplicate Doctor's universe?" stories, and there are only a handful I like. I love this one. While it's told exclusively from 10.5's POV, the vulnerability of both men in this situation shines through. It's a difficult piece to read, but it's amazing.

Notes: Written in response to a drabble meme request. I wouldn't include it because it's very short and just a link in my journal, but goddamn I have missed the awesome stories that come out of this author. S/he doesn't need more than four or five paragraphs to hook you in, show you the character's hearts, and leave you wanting more. I love it.

Notes: Written for the kisses meme. There's a lovely undertone of anger in this, while still managing to be very nearly romantic. I love well-written Master/Doctor stories, and this is awesome, using a fun trope (psychic kisses!) without overdoing it, abusing it, or writing anyone wrong. I love it.

Notes: Written for the drabble request meme. I already love the family dynamic this author has created in other stories, but I especially love how you don't need to read the other stories to feel the sense of family here. Even with a new, barely-on-screen character introduced in this story, there's still a feeling of (and I'm not even sure this makes sense) correctness about that character being here. They work well together and it's just a great story go read it thanks.

Notes: There's a reason this author is so well known for her romantic stories. There's no extrenuous kissing, groping, "I love you"s, or sex, and yet there's a lovely sense of adoration, sexuality, and adoration. It's a perfect fit for the character, and this is a wonderful study of a complicated historical relationship. I love it.

Notes: Written for the drabble meme. This is probably my favorite story by this author. She's captured her character perfectly in a tough-though-you-wish-it-wasn't situation, as well as every other character in this story, from the canon character to the OC she's created. It's fantastic, witty, and just perfect.
