Eleventy fic recs.

[elisi]

Thought I'd better try to get everything together in one place. I'm sure I'll add to it once I get more organised. (Also need to add authors & ratings etc for a lot of them. Sorry. Time is not my friend. But most of this is PG I think.)

Firstly, from my big pimpin' post:

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.)

~~~

Post-'Cold Blood' fics. To be read in this order.

Just a Moment.

(he wasn't there again today).

a shift in the universe.

Comfort.

Waves.

~~~

Cautionary Tales for Incautious Children. (An experiment in meta that became an experiment in fanfiction.)

Ulterior Motive. Amy, Eleven. Drabble.

So I Shall Unravel My Love. (amy, river; set during "Time Of Angels")

The Party Don’t Start. (Eleven, River, Amy)

Chances of Rain. (Doctor/River -I love a rainy night.)

all the greats. (The Doctor shows Amy his library.)

A Lovely Story With Eleven and Sarah and a Baby. In which the Doctor wants Sarah Jane to babysit. (This one made me laugh so hard that I almost cried. Seriously.)

The Time Of Your Life. In which loving someone in chronological order is for losers. Doctor/River. (Perfectly perfect and wonderful and touching.)

~~~

Three amazing fics by cinderbella333, who manages to write the most perfect, tip-toeing around the edges of the what-will-be, utterly endearing, Doctor/River:

Kiss. (River doesn't do anything ordinary. Even first kisses.)

Make Believe. (It didn't end in The Library. For either of them.)

A Matter of Time. (The Doctor. River Song. Pirates. Oh my.)

Then crack!fic: Rory Williams, Accidental Sex God. Words can not do it justice!

~~~

ETA: I was wondering whether to include my own fic or not, but then I thought, why not? So, here you are. :)

The Master Returns. Again. (Double drabble. Master, Eleven, River.)

Don't Mess With River Song. (Drabble. Sequel to the above. Master, River.)

And Then The TARDIS Fell into Pete's World. (TenToo, Rose, Eleven, Amy, Rory, River, Jackie. Crack!fic/character study. 14,000 words.)

~~~

Plus, I ought to include my daughter's fic. She's 11, loves writing, and has recently been bitten by the fic-bug. You can find what she's written so far by following her tag: Miss M. Most of the stories center around Amelia (and Rory) when little, and Eleven.

Oh, I'm very flattered. *blushes*

And I agree with so many of your recs here. :)

[elisi]

I ought to add ALL of yours (I've not even got your name there yet!). Give it time...

And I agree with so many of your recs here. :)
I need more, but then I'd need more time. *sigh*

[jrsz.livejournal.com]

Oooh, this is great, thanks! I've read a few of these already (mostly I think when you've recc'd them before, haha :D)

[elisi]

mostly I think when you've recc'd them before, haha :D
Oh absolutely. This was mostly an attempt at putting everything in one place. :)

[honeynoir.livejournal.com]

Yay, so much fic I haven't seen before! :D *clicks a bunch of links*

(here via the pingback bot, btw)

[elisi]

Ooooh, that makes me happy! :)

And the pingback bot is brilliant.

[honeynoir.livejournal.com]

This post made me happy. I was bored and then there was fic recs in my inbox!

Aaannnd now I have spied meta. So thank you, just generally!

[honeynoir.livejournal.com]

Also, y'know, thank you for reccing me!

[elisi]

This post made me happy. I was bored and then there was fic recs in my inbox!
Hee! That sounds brilliant indeed!

Aaannnd now I have spied meta. So thank you, just generally!
I... should probably do a post just with meta recs. Do you have any preferences?

[elisi]

LOL! It was a brilliant fic, and definitely deserved to be rec'd. :) I hope I left feedback... *worries*

[honeynoir.livejournal.com]

Ooh, meta recs!

Do you have any preferences?
Not really, as long as it's well-written. I do love reading meta about characters and 'ships. I also love symbolism and analyses of all kinds of arcs. But I'll pretty much read anything by anyone if it seems interesting...

[honeynoir.livejournal.com]

Eh, don't worry about feedback! I'm happy to know you've read it!

[elisi]

Too late. :)

[elisi]

As you probably already spotted, my own meta is here.

Otherwise, here's a random selection:

VERY long and indepth analysis of the themes in RTD's Who & Torchwood.

NuWho meta: Eleven as the "Unearthly Child".

Guess Who? Identity and Fairy Tale in The Pandorica Opens/Big Bang.

These posts by promethia_tenk.

Plus, Big Bang picspam. Because it's brilliant. *g*

And that's all, since I HAVE to run away from the computer now...

[ever-neutral.livejournal.com]

Good golly that's a lot of fic.

:D Thanks!

P.S. So much approval for "And I Shall Unravel My Love."

[elisi]

Good golly that's a lot of fic.
You think? It was a much shorter list than I anticipated. I'm sure I've left out something. :)

P.S. So much approval for "And I Shall Unravel My Love."
That one is just extraordinary! *profound love* It made me go hunt down a River & Amy icon, which has come in very handy lots of times!

[honeynoir.livejournal.com]

Woah, thank you so much! These will keep me properly busy for a long, long time! :D

[promethia_tenk]

Hey thanks for the recs and thanks for reccing me! There's definitely some here I haven't seen before :-)

[elisi]

I think I only have two of yours in there, which I must remedy later - I adore everything you've written. :) And enjoy the rest, they're all fabulous!

[elisi]

I've got more, but this was what I could find at short notice. *is meta addict* Enjoy!

[promethia_tenk]

Aww, you're too kind. Had a lovely hour or so of reading :-)

And since this seems the place to share goodies, have you read any of my new favorite River/Eleven writer, cinderbella333? There's something wonderfully realistic and . . . dorky about her take on them which I love to distraction:

Make Believe: with holograms and light angsting!
Kiss: with awkward kissing!
A Matter of Time: with PIRATES!

*fangirls* Did I mention the dorkiness? I love it so.

Also, I found out where all the crackfic is hiding. It is in the kinkmeme! To wit:

Rory Williams: Accidental Sex God: lady-scented body wash--->hilarity ensues

[elisi]

Aww, you're too kind.
Not at all!

Had a lovely hour or so of reading :-)
Mission accomplished. :)

Oooooh she's amazing! Have only read the fist one so far, but gosh, it's brilliant! Thank you so much!

[promethia_tenk]

Isn't she fantastic?!??!?! I could just squish her! But I think I shall make an embarrassment of myself pimping her out at every opportunity instead.

[elisi]

I shall happily join you in that respect! :) *adores*

(Oh and the Rory crack!fic was... genius. Thank you so much!)

[cinderbella333.livejournal.com]

Ooh, thank you for reccing me! I'm very flattered. :D

[elisi]

How could I not? Also, you're on calufrax today! :) (Just in case you hadn't seen.)

[cinderbella333.livejournal.com]

*Flails!* I had no idea. :D Thank you!
