Creator's Summary: "I suppose I’m concerned you might have some, ah, well, some unresolved emotional issues.” / “What’s that supposed to mean?” Jamie picks fights and discovers guinea pigs.
Characters/Pairings: Jamie McCrimmon, the Second Doctor, Polly Wright, Ben Jackson
Warnings/Notes: some violence, some talk of trauma
Reasons for reccing: It's a touching exploration of how past trauma may lead to in anger control issues and violence, and the difficulty of admitting to emotions and issues you don't know how to deal with. In this story, Jamie's picking a lot of fights and refuses to admit he might have some unresolved issues from his past experiences, in the war. But help comes from unexpected sources - and the ending is in fact quite sweet. It's emotionally really powerful - as in, I cried buckets when I first read it. Might have been an emotional day for me, but anyway, it's great.
I'm choosing this for the "battle/struggle" square on my bingo card. I don't really read a lot of fics actually about battles, but I love reading fics about the after effects of traumatic events such as battles. Especially on characters I adore who might have issues admitting the said effects, such as Jamie. More figuratively, there is a lot of struggle with emotions going on here.
