Characters/Pairings: All the Doctors and companions from the Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh Doctor eras
Warnings/Notes:

Reasons for reccing: Martha sums the video up at the end, so this is for 1979, the year Freema Agyeman was born. It's a fun video with clips relating to the songs. And I didn't realise how much similar themes came up until I saw them one after another.

Word Count/Length/Size: 14,190 words
Creator's Summary: Jack Harkness is a conman and a survivor. He doesn't believe in legends. And he shouldn't be running towards the invisible menace—but he is.
Characters/Pairings: Jack Harkness, Ninth Doctor, Rose Tyler
Warnings/Notes: Graphic Depictions of Violence. Couple of allusions to Jack’s sexual exploits, but nothing shown on the page—just slightly more detail than you’d get on the show.

Reasons for reccing: I want to rec this fic for the “Rumour Has It” monthly theme because of how it explores the Doctor’s character from the perspective of Jack’s second-hand, legendary knowledge of Time Lords and of the War. It’s also about Jack’s character arc, and how his view of the Doctor changes as he learns more about both the Doctor and himself. I love stories where characters have their expectations of each other subverted, and this is very much one of those, in a tremendously hopeful and thoughtful way. Oh, and there’s also a great action plot!

Characters/Pairings: Graham O'Brien, Thirteenth Doctor, Yasmin Khan, Dan Lewis, Ryan Sinclair, Jack Harkness; Graham/Dan and Yaz/Thirteen implied at the end, but it's not the focus of the fic
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: This is a lovely alternate first meeting fic, in which Graham is still a bus driver and meets the Doctor on one of his routes, while she is looking for ghosts. Or "ghosts"? This was a fascinating read and I love its Graham POV with his take on everyone else, and the way it keeps everyone in character despite the different circumstances.

Word Count/Length/Size: 5109 words

Creator's Summary: When a man bound to the slow path is the oldest of humankind, it's only natural he should run into a man who can travel anywhere, anywhen. I cherish my headcanon that Jack and Jamie are Highlander Immortals found and taught by Methos, Matthew McCormick, and Connor MacLeod, respectively. And that Ten and Martha stayed with the Chestertons during Blink.

Characters/Pairings: Methos, First Doctor, Second Doctor, Third Doctor, Seventh Doctor, Tenth Doctor, Jack Harkness, Jamie McCrimmon, Ian Chesterton, Barbara Wright

Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: In addition to my love for DW, I have loved Highlander for a very long time, especially Methos, the oldest immortal. Note: this was originally posted online about a month before The Fires of Pompeii, so the explanation for the eruption is not the same.

Reasons for reccing: This is a very good and well-paced fic. It has many interesting ideas and concepts, and was a very exciting read. The author has many onther Nine/Rose fics on their account, all of which are very good.

Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: Because it's funny. It has a trending theme, which leads to the reveal of how the First Doctor ended up with that ulster.

Creator's Summary: Donna meets someone new and learns a few things about herself.
Characters/Pairings: Donna Noble/Martha Jones, Jack Harkness, Wilfred Mott
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: This is set after "Journey's End" and therefore Donna and Martha have a very different starting point with each other, which is a fascinating imbalance at the start of their relationship. It ends up being a fix-it for Donna, but before it comes to that, I completely love her POV, the way she gets to know Martha and herself and at the same times feels that something isn't quite right. The build-up throughout is just great, and I love the Jack and Wilf cameos.
I initially found the fic through the podfic version, which I'm reccing here as well, because Sophinisba is a great reader and very easy to listen to.

Creator's Summary: It's been less than an hour since the Doctor escaped from solitary confinement, and it's become very clear that she's not...quite right.
Characters/Pairings: Thirteenth Doctor, Jack Harkness
Warnings/Notes: No archive warnings apply

Reasons for reccing: Note: Spoilers for the Timeless Children. It's a look at the Doctor dealing with the effects of sensory deprivation--specifically time sensitivity sensory deprivation--after being rescued from an interminable amount of time in solitary confinement. I like it for the depiction of an alien time sense in understandable and relatable ways, for the relationship between the Doctor and the TARDIS, and for the stark vulnerability we see in Thirteen who has gone through an ordeal and knows what she needs but is terrified of it at the same time. There isn't much here that dwells on the Timeless Child arc in particular (I wasn't much of a fan of it) but what is there is sharp and sad and used to good effect. The Doctor's sometimes-strained relationship with Jack Harkness is also really well realized as well, and I'm glad to see it end on a hopeful note.

Warnings/Notes: explicit talk about suicide, some macabre moments

Reasons for reccing: A great Owen-centric fic, dealing with his dead-but-not state of being and all the annoyances and unknowns it brings with it. He’s never really thought of death as a chronic condition before, but chronic just means you can’t get rid of it, doesn’t it? The story captures his POV very well and I really like the "twenty things" structure, giving us twenty different scenes and several small appearances by other characters.

Reasons for reccing: Because it's fun. It's surprising how many people know about aliens and yet are completely unsuitable to do what Sarah Jane does.

Reasons for reccing: Beautiful, thoughtful, and heart-warming multi-era fic in which the Doctor dances with his companions across all his incarnations (up to the point when this was written).

It wasn't just strangers that ended up in the Nethersphere. Some of the Doctor's friends ended up there, too. But the Doctor's friends are still the Doctor's friends, even if they're no longer conventionally alive, so they're not necessarily going to follow Missy's plans...

Warnings/Notes: canonical and extrapolated character deaths, afterlife

Reasons for reccing: Wonderful and inventive exploration of an uncharted corner of canon. I love this for the wide and sometimes surprising array of characters who end up meeting Missy and/or Seb, who react to the Nethersphere in different ways, and who sometimes even meet each other. They all feel very much like themselves and the story manages to combine a lot of different beats, from funny and nostalgic, over poignant and surprising, to uncanny and sad.

Word Count/Length/Size: about 8,600 words (that's what the writer gives it as, so I don't know more precisely)
Creator's Summary: Jack Harkness is your average American high school boy. 100% AU, be mindful of the crack.
Characters/Pairings: Jack Harkness, Ianto Jones, Gwen Cooper, Toshiko Sato, Martha Jones, Rhys Williams, Tommy Brockless, Owen Harper, the Tenth Doctor. Jack/Ianto as the main pairing; side-pairings are many.
Notes: AU/fusion with the 1995 film Clueless.

Reasons for reccing: I nearly forgot that I meant to rec more stuff for the AU theme, especially one of my favourite silly AUs of all time: this hilarious fusion of Torchwood with Clueless that somehow works. Jack is Cher. Because of course he is. Gwen is the bestie, naturally, Toshiko is the clueless newcomer, and Ianto the surprisingly attractive ex-stepbrother. It's funny, adorable, and much more feel-good than Torchwood canon, trust me. This is the one American high school AU I totally recommend!
