The first ever recorded comment on River Song.

FROM: RUSSEL T. DAVIES TO: BENJAMIN COOK, SATURDAY 27 OCTOBER 2007 19:44:02 GMT

It's funny, isn't it? I ask him [Moffat] not to spoiler me. He's written 4.9 already, so I've read that. It's called Silence in the Library, and it has a character in it who I'm just sure is the Doctor's wife (!!!), but I don't like to ask. I want to find out in the second episode, like a viewer. It's the closest that I get to experiencing brand new Doctor Who. Not for long, though...
The Writer's Tale, The Final Chapter, p249

(Incidentally this was written the day after Moffat had agreed to become the new showrunner. Also, this is MY LAST DAY OF FREEDOM! I start work Monday... So, goodbye procrastination.)

Oh and second and third comments here, in the comments. :)

Two fic recs.

These two are about as different as you can imagine.

Set Yourself On Fire by calapine. (Eleven/River, Ten/River, Amy, Rory)

Summary: River Song, time, stories and choices.

Beautiful and lyrical and magical. *is all out of words*

~~~~~

Sweet Sixteenth or Close Enough by lyricwrites. (Mels/Jeff, Rory)

Summary: Mels has a good time. Rory experiences the joys of time-scrambled fatherhood.

This grew out of my daft marco-fic, and powers above it is hysterical. And also totally canon. Never had I thought something so silly could inspire something so brilliant.
