Recs can be posted to this community at any time, so if you've stumbled over something great, no need to wait to rec it!

In addition, however, we have monthly themes and seasonal challenges. September's theme is now officially closed, and the theme for October is:

Second Doctor // Horror

"There are some corners of the universe which have bred the most terrible things. Things which act against everything we believe in. They must be fought." (The Moonbase)


This month's is the Second Doctor's turn to have another go in the spotlight. It's also October, traditionally the month for horror and things that go bump in the night. So, bring on your recs for anyone and anything from Two's era or your favourite horror recs (scary, horror tropes or crossovers, or just people being horrified by the Doctor's terrible dress sense/recorder playing/out of date Victorian degree in medicine). Or, of course, you can combine them if you like!

Post your recs to the community in the normal way any time from now until midnight on 31st Oct 2021 in your timezone. (See Info & Guidelines for posting template and instructions). Recs posted for monthly themes have their own tag with banners at the end of the year for reccers who posted something for at least six out of the twelve themes over the year.

When making your post, add the tag "other: monthly theme". (The mods will take care of any other needed tags, as usual, but which challenge/theme a rec is for could easily be missed.)


Our current Seasonal Challenge is Claim A Ship, which is still open until 19th Dec 2021 for claims and posting!


Request List
Anyone may also request any specific recs they'd like to see. (e.g. "Fourth Doctor fic, not on Teaspoon," "Cheerful Bill Potts artwork," "Leela vid," "recent Ten/Rose," etc.) If you are only interested in one medium (fic/vid/art etc/), don't forget to specify.

Current requests:
* Classic Who fanvids, any Doctor/TARDIS team (music, no/minimal audio quotes preferred), especially out there on tumblr/YT - [personal profile] thisbluespirit
* Twelfth Doctor h/c that's not on AO3 (any pairing or gen) - [personal profile] ruuger
* Rose/Nine fic, any genre, anywhere - anon
* Jack/Esther fic (Torchwood) - [personal profile] chamilet
* Babyfic and/or de-age fic, any era/any team - [personal profile] romanajo123


Make your requests in the comments here to be added to the list. (Anon commenting is on.) If you make a rec that fills any of these requests, please add the "other: request" tag to your entry so it can be found easily.)


Any other questions? Ask here or at the Info & Guidelines post, or PM the mod.

Title: Doctor Who and the Sporran of Doom
Creator: [archiveofourown.org profile] nostalgia
Rating: G
Word Count/Length/Size: 1434 words
Creator's Summary: When Jamie is attacked by his own sporran, our heroes must somehow save the day.
Characters/Pairings: Second Doctor, Jamie McCrimmon, Zoe Heriot
Warnings/Notes: None, although probably best not to eat & drink while reading.

Reasons for reccing: It's a glorious bit of crack (that's also perfectly plausible and in character) and is 100% guaranteed to make your day better, if not Jamie's. If I quoted the funniest or most delightful bits, I'd be pasting half the fic in here. And, with regards to the monthly theme, what greater horror could there truly be than Jamie getting attacked by his own sporran?
