[thisbluespirit]

Title: The World That Jack Built
Creator: I Inayat
Rating: All ages
Word Count/Length/Size: 1439 words
Creator's Summary: This is the way the world ends.
Characters/Pairings: Anji Kapoor, Charley Pollard, Compassion, Faction Paradox, Fitz Kreiner, Zagreus (Eighth Doctor), Samantha Jones, Ssard, Stacy Townsend, The TARDIS
Warnings/Notes: Rocks fall, everyone dies.

Reasons for reccing: AUs are a great way to explore the places that canon didn't go, and sometimes places that canon couldn't and would never even want to go, and this is a great example. Zagreus wins in Neverland and hunts down all of Eight's companions across Big Finish, the EDAs, and comics, one by one in this dark, sharp, and poetic piece.

Creator's Summary: 'Looking in the mirror, Frobisher thought he looked pretty good, even without a beak.' Sometimes even a shape-shifter needs to stay the same. Slight spoilers for "The Doctor's Daughter" and the end of "Journey's End".
