Creator's Summary: He didn't need to know. Nobody needed to know. She was Melanie Bush now, not Melody Pond.
Characters/Pairings: Sixth Doctor/Mel Bush, Seventh Doctor/Mel Bush, River Song (as Mel)
Warnings/Notes:
Reasons for reccing: For 1986 and the introduction of Melanie Bush, here's one of my favorite very recent pieces of Mel-and-Six-fic. Based on a longstanding crack theory ('Melanie Bush' could not sound more like 'Melody Pond had to come up with an alias quickly' if you tried!), this is both really moving and makes a surprising amount of continuity sense. It's a great exploration of Mel's character that thereby adds new layers to River's.
Also for the Multi-Era theme!
