Big DW S5 Pimpin' Post.
Have been meaning to do this for weeks. A ton of spoilers within. Also, this is not *everything* that I've seen or read, just the stuff that stuck with me - the things I kept coming back to. (I'm sure I've forgotten something, but this is most of it.) Lots of vids, and a fair few fics too. :)
VIDS
Gen/Team TARDIS.
Can-Can Onze by
elderberryink. The whole first season of Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor, IN two minutes, TO Offenbach's Can-Can. (That's the can-can tune everyone knows.):
Brand New Day by
humansrsuperior. New Doctor, new TARDIS, new sonic screwdriver, new companion... A fresh start, the dawn of a new day, and of a new era.
fan_eunice: The Eleventy Project. (A vid for every episode. So far only up to Hungry Earth/Cold Blood, but all of them BRILLIANT!)
Bring the Pain by
writeangel1. A tribute to the series up to 'Cold Blood'.
Stuck to You by
humansrsuperior. NEW TEAM TARDIS LOOOOOOVE. ♥
Amy & Amy and the Doctor.
Lullaby For A Stormy Night by
such_heights. Little child, be not afraid. (The Doctor and wee baby Amelia. If you only watch ONE vid, make it this one.)
Half Life by
big_n_happy. (Excellent, and rather dark, Amy vid.)
I found this via a rec on
doctoreleven, and I love it to absolute pieces. It's Eleven and Amy set to 'Fireflies' and it never fails to cheer me up. Comfort vid, that's what it is, and I love it for it. My wonderful show with its wonderful happy ending! ♥
On youtube here, and I also uploaded it here if anyone wants it to keep. 22MB, flv format (which plays beautifully on VLC).
Rory.
Change of Time by
greensilver. Rory Williams, time traveler. (Gorgeous vid. A must-see for any Rory fan!)
River & Doctor/River.
(Two big SHINY ones, and three smaller, fun ones.)
The World Is Not Enough by
big_n_nappy. The world is not enough. But it is such a perfect place to start... My Love. (The PERFECT River song. Am still flailing.)
Set My World Into Motion by
beccatoria. River Song. Totally fucking awesome. (And so's the vid. Am still flailing.)
Meet Virginia by
writeangel1. A River Song Tribute.
"Are You Gonna Be My Girl?" by
ageless_aislynn. The Doctor just has one question for River...
All I Wanted by
katoelizabeth. River/Doctor. (Oh my shippy heart...)
ETA: Knew I was forgetting something. Sadly no one has made a big, shiny meta vid for Eleven yet, so instead I shall rec you this fabulous youtube vid: Hot in Here. Naked Matt Smith FTW!!!
FIC
Stories We Tell Our Children by
calapine. Tell stories; be kind; remember. A response to The Big Bang. (If you only read ONE fic, make it this one!)
The Time I've Spent by
rheanna27. I don't wait for people, Rory. I make them wait for me. (The Doctor and Rory post-The Big Bang. So perfect I can't begin to explain it.)
The Care and Feeding of Tiny Humans (and slightly larger Time Lords) by
netgirl_y2k. The adventures of Eleven and Wee!Amelia. (So adorable even those who hate S5 love it!)
Five Things that Never Actually Happened (And One that Did) by
promethia_tenk. River Song was in an unusually talkative mood . . . (Hysterical. Follow the tags for more fic. It's all brilliant!)
Not Expecting This by
mogwai_do. (Set during The Lodger, and still cracks me up...)
The Latest One by
calapine. "Saving the world in your nightie. That’s a new one. A good one, but definitely a new one." (Or, one of those post-ep fics where they muck about in the TARDIS for a bit.) (Set post-The Beast Below.)
(OK, so here's the part where I don't make sense to myself. I mean, I can easily justify Doctor/River. That makes sense. But. I am slowly beginning to realise that I totally ship Amy/Doctor/Rory. I blame fics like these...)
Patient (PG-13) by
hoosierbitch. Rory figures the Doctor is a lot like the TARDIS. (Set post-The Big Bang. Shows how things might develop.)
In A Big Round Bed, In A Little Blue Box (15) by
jenwryn. Rory knows the freckles, on Amy's shoulders, as if they were a map to his very own home; he's growing to know the shape of the Doctor's hand, broad and gentle, just as well. (And if things *did* develop, this is how they might end up.)
