Title: Choices
Creator: Penny
Rating: Teen
Word Count/Length/Size: 1039
Creator's Summary: The Doctor told himself he hadn’t had a choice - but in the hearts of his he knew that wasn’t true. Of course there’d been a choice. There was always a choice. He’d chosen to kill his friends. And he’d do it again.
Characters/Pairings: The Doctor (2nd), Jamie McCrimmon, Victoria Waterfield
Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: Sacrifice box on Rec Bingo. This is atmospheric and beautiful, dealing with the Doctor having to make a hard choice. Ends on a nice note though!

Title: Not Easy Being Green
Creator:

JohnAmendAll
Rating: Teen and Up
Word Count/Length/Size: 3309
Creator's Summary: How do you cover up a six-foot, nearly-naked green alien in a busy city? Leave it to Samantha Briggs.
Characters/Pairings: Second Doctor, Jamie McCrimmon/Samantha Briggs (from The Faceless Ones)
Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: For the "Green" part of the monthly theme. This is a pleasant surprise . The Doctor and Jamie are in-character, the plot is creative and interesting. And a few moments got a laugh out of me.

(Especially near the end)

rec [Vid]: Second Doctor Era | 500 Miles by relative-dimension-in-space

Title: 500 Miles
Creator: relative-dimension-in-space
Rating: G
Word Count/Length/Size: 3.38 mins
Creator's Summary: Another era tribute, this time for the Troughton years. This was so much fun to work on and it's making me want to binge some of these stories again. I love this era and these characters so much and I really, desperately hope that more of it gets found with time. There's a wealth of character work and physical comedy that's just gone and it's so upsetting to not get to see more of these performances. I'd do anything (including walk 500 miles and 500 more) to one day get to watch even more of this beloved, incredible era of the show.
Characters/Pairings: Second Doctor, Polly Wright, Ben Jackson, Jamie McCrimmon, Victoria Waterfield & Zoe Heriot.
Warnings/Notes: None, save for obligatory brief War Games heartache in passing.

Reasons for reccing: I loved this vidder's First Doctor era tribute and they just posted one for the Second Doctor's era and it's also great! It's a perfect match up of song and clips, with exactly the right feel for this Doctor and his companions, and showcases all over again why the loss of every single minute of on-screen Troughton is a crime. In short, it's downright adorable and I hope watching it brightens your day the way it did mine.

Happy New Year! This is a wonderful read. Sometimes it's nice to see the Doctors helping in small ways: like here just making sure someone in need can make it through the night. Everyone is IC and it has just that right bit of heartwarming (and bittersweetness)

Title: What Makes a Coconut Shy?
Creator: Penny
Rating: All Ages
Word Count/Length/Size: 2234
Creator's Summary: Her eyes were so big and bright, and he almost never saw her this happy – he couldn’t say no, not when Victoria made that face. Jamie, Victoria, a Ferris Wheel and an embarrassing fear of heights. (Jamie/Victoria Fluff)
Characters/Pairings: Second Doctor, Janie McCrimmon/Victoria Waterfield
Warnings/Notes: None (but pure FLUFF! )

Reasons for reccing: For 1967 , when Evil of the Daleks began and we got introduced to the wonderful Victoria Waterfield. This fic is an in character load of excessive fluff, and a good portrait of this team.

Creator's Summary: Jamie doesn't want to. Victoria doesn't see the problem: she knows he's done it before.
Characters/Pairings: Jamie McCrimmon/ Victoria Waterfield
Warnings/Notes:
None
Reasons for reccing: I might be a little bias since I'm the one who prompted this fic, but it's just adorable. All the characters are IC and it feels like something that would happen to this team. Also Fake marriage is one of those things that seems to just... fit Jamie and Victoria.

Word Count/Length/Size: 267
Rating: G
Creator's Summary: The Doctor finds himself and his companions sorely lacking in certain essentials.
Characters/Pairings: Second Doctor, Jamie McCrimmon, Victoria Waterfield
Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: This is short but adorable. It is very in- character and feels like a missing scene from an actual serial. Two and his tiny teams must indeed have disadvantages.

Characters/Pairings: Jamie McCrimmon/Samantha Briggs, Isobel Watkins, Zoe Heriot, Victoria Waterfield, Gwendoline Mary Lacey (crossover character)
Warnings/Notes: None... though this is slightly meta. :) And technically part of This Time Round universe but works on its own.

Warnings/Notes: None (but silliness and Crack)

Reasons for reccing: It's a really interesting timey-wimey fic where the Doctor visits the same place three times. Each time influences the other times. It's also an interesting plot that gets solved in three different times

[Fic] Five Times Methos met The Doctor by kesomon

Title:Five Times Methos met The Doctor archiveofourown.org/works/7943194

Creator: kesomon

Rating: General

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.

Rec [fic]: Carried Too Far by Andraste

Title: Carried Too Far
Creator:

Andraste
Rating: Teen
Word Count/Length/Size: 6400 words
Creator's Summary: Forced intimacy clichés are no match for the Doctor. (Most of the time.)
Characters/Pairings: First Doctor, Ian Chesterton/Barbara Wright, Second Doctor, Jamie McCrimmon, Third Doctor/The Master, Jo Grant, Fourth Doctor, Sarah Jane Smith, Fifth Doctor, Vislor Turlough, Sixth Doctor, Evelyn Smythe, Seventh Doctor, Ace McShane, Eighth Doctor, Izzy Sinclair, Ninth Doctor, Jack Harkness, Amy Pond/Rory Williams, Twelfth Doctor, Clara Oswald
Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: It's all the intimacy tropes, but involving the Doctor, who can be guaranteed to make them not at all intimate. It's fun all the situations the Doctor and his companions find themselves in.

Rec [fic]: Doctor Who and the Sporran of Doom by nostalgia

Title: Doctor Who and the Sporran of Doom
Creator:

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?

Creator:

dbskyler
Rating: General
Word Count/Length/Size: 3144 words
Creator's Summary: You know, I acquired that ulster from Gilbert and Sullivan. -- The First Doctor, "Edge of Destruction."
Characters/Pairings: First Doctor, Second Doctor, Third Doctor, Fourth Doctor, Fifth Doctor, Sixth Doctor, Seventh Doctor, Eighth Doctor, Ninth Doctor, Tenth Doctor, Eleventh Doctor, Twelfth Doctor, Thirteenth Doctor, Susan Foreman, Jamie McCrimmon, Jo Grant, Romana II, K9, Tegan Jovanka, Nyssa of Traken, Ace McShane, Grace Holloway, Rose Tyler, Jack Harkness, Donna Noble
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. Despite it all being from Gilbert or Sullivan's point of view, you can still tell which Doctors and companions are which from what they do and how their clothing is described.

Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: It's clever how all the Doctors are in here, causing chaos as only they can. And amusing, with everyone's reactions to the Doctors. And the OCs - Ian and Barbara's family - are believable and interesting with their opinions on their two year disappearance and marriage.
