Rec [fic]: The Long, Long Shadow by vailkagami

Title: The Long, Long Shadow
Creator:

vailkagami
Rating: General
Word Count/Length/Size: 4086 words
Creator's Summary: Ian and Barabara are gone, the Daleks are defeated, and Steven made it into the TARDIS just in time. But there is still a problem of more Daleks to take care of, and the method of getting rid of them is not something the Doctor is keen on trying.
Characters/Pairings: First Doctor, Vicki Pallister, Steven Taylor, The Doctor's TARDIS
Warnings/Notes:

Reasons for reccing: It's a really interesting idea, that the Daleks wouldn't stop chasing them after The Chase. And it's coupled with Steven trying to get used to the TARDIS. And a look at the relationship between the Doctor and the TARDIS; how the TARDIS thinks of time. And a dash of knowledge from the future.

Fic: Children of My Civilisation by patrexes and Shrrgnien

Title: Children of My Civilisation
Creator:

Rating: General Audiences
Word Count/Length/Size: 2,035 words
Creator's Summary:

Alone and afraid, Clara and the TARDIS share the most precious memory in all of time and space.

Meanwhile, Theta Sigma is kind of a dick.

Characters/Pairings: Doctor/TARDIS; various Doctors, Clara Oswald, Susan Foreman
Warnings/Notes: author tags "Xenophobia"; author's tags also include "Canon Backstory, All Three of Them! All at Once!" and "Two and Jamie Show Up For About Three Seconds It's a Thing"

Reasons for reccing: For Doctor/TARDIS in the Claim a Ship Seasonal Challenge.

Clara and the TARDIS are arguing and in danger, and the ship tries to communicate by sharing some of her memories. Most importantly, how she got herself stolen. The younger First Doctor and Susan are very well portrayed--I especially love the Doctor's combination of awe and panic about bonding with his ship--and Clara's perspective (not knowing what she's seeing, but plenty of opinions) is a really interesting way to approach it.

Creator's Summary: The TARDIS cannot let this stand.
Characters/Pairings: The Doctor's TARDIS, Fourteenth Doctor, Tenth Doctor, Donna Noble, Petronella Osgood

Reasons for reccing: This fixes something that bugged me about Wild Blue Yonder and is also fun.

Rec [fic]: Remembrance by BiJane

Title: Remembrance
Creator:

BiJane
Rating: G
Word Count/Length/Size: 3415 words
Creator's Summary:

The TARDIS on the Doctor.

Stitch it together. Weave a narrative from all the moments. That happened before that, which would have prevented that… It’s not simultaneous, not to them.

Characters/Pairings: The Doctor (multiple regenerations)/The Doctor's TARDIS, mentioned Romana and River Song
Warnings/Notes: (none)

Reasons for reccing: For the Claim a Ship challenge. This is a narrative of the Doctor's relationship with his TARDIS told from the TARDIS's perspective, and it's splendidly nonlinear, using the idea that the TARDIS experiences all her adventures with the Doctor simultaneously. It tells her perspective on various stories from Classic and New Who, synthesizing them into a big arc of their journey together, and it does some really fun things with tenses and nonlinear storytelling.

Rec (Fic) The Piper Played by ninewood

Title: The Piper Played
Creator: ninewood
Rating: All Ages
Word Count/Length/Size: 679
Creator's Summary:Taking place after the Invasion, The Doctor, Zoe and Jamie go to the funeral of a close friend.

Characters/Pairings: The Brigadier, Jamie, Zoe, the TARDIS, The Doctor (2nd)
Warnings/Notes: None, except... this deals with a certain character's death that's canon.

Reasons for reccing: For the box "Death" on my Bingo card. Which I do believe gives me a Bingo :P

This is lovely and heartbreaking, but a fitting tribute to a wonderful character.

Creator's Summary: The stray is in one of the laboratories, mixing things that oughtn’t to be mixed.
Characters/Pairings: The TARDIS, Ace McShane, seventh Doctor
Warnings/Notes: n/a

Reasons for reccing: TARDIS POV! Which is something outside the box (or, rather, inside the box... hope you liked my joke). It's lovely, and so is the small interaction between the Doctor and Ace.

Rec: In Thirteen Dimensions by AyeAyeAye (The TARDIS, River Song, Tenth & Eleventh Doctors)

Title: In Thirteen Dimensions
Author: AyeAyeAye (

AyeAyeAye)
Rating: Not Rated, but Gen
Word Count/Length/Size: 917 words
Creator's Summary: The TARDIS is not alive in the way he is; she is the not fumbling hands and the schisms of his spiderwebbing across the space time. But she is alive all the same, feels all at once. OR: The TARDIS sees all of the space-time at once. She explores the possibilities of saving River.
Characters/Pairings: Ten, Eleven, Melody Pond and River Song. The Doctor/River Song, The Doctor & The Doctor's TARDIS, River Song & The Doctor's TARDIS
Warnings/Notes: Creator chose not to use warnings

Reasons for reccing: I love stories that examine the non-linearity of the TARDIS' existence and how she experiences sentience, desires, agency and love in all of her dimensions. The language here is quite evocative of the TARDIS' alien perceptions.

Rec [Fic]: Our Ways Part and Intertwine by Navaan

For the "Willing Channeler" trope I got for the seasonal challenge.

Title: Our Ways Part and Intertwine
Creator:

navaan
Rating: gen
Word Count/Length/Size: 1359 words
Creator's Summary: Rose looks into the heart of the Tardis to save the Doctor and the universe, the Bad Wolf looks further - to future and past. And an old man tired of War finds a moment of kindness.
Characters/Pairings: Rose Tyler (as herself, Bad Wolf, and The Moment), War Doctor, the Tardis
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: Rose in all permutations. Channeling the Time Vortex and following the threads, she not only becomes the Ninth Doctor's Bad Wolf, but also the War Doctor's Moment - the latter in more ways than one even, thanks to the Tardis. It's lovely how things intertwine here (the title is very apt).

Creator's Summary: That little spark from the wiring was probably fine. That seasick feeling is probably fine. The way time keeps repeating itself is... Oh. Wait. That might actually not be fine.
Characters/Pairings: Thirteenth Doctor, Graham O'Brien, Ryan Sinclair, Yasmin Khan, The Doctor's TARDIS
Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: It's an interesting time loop where things aren't quite the same each time and the Doctor remembers.

Word Count/Length/Size: 2809 words
Creator's Summary: The stories were lovely, full of mystery and danger, joy and sorrow intermingled. John Chesterton did not believe a word of it.
Characters/Pairings: Barbara Wright, Ian Chesterton, Tenth Doctor
Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: This is a really interesting meeting between Ian and Barbara's son, John (from some of the novels) and the Tenth Doctor. With a whole lot of assumptions from John based on his parents' stories. I really like how they interact and how John views the TARDIS. And how the TARDIS communicates with the Doctor.

Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: It's a really interesting remix of the fic above, with the TARDIS's POV (and an interesting take on how the TARDIS translates), events mentioned in the orignal, and a connection between John and Tegan.

Word Count/Length/Size: 10 drawings
Creator's Summary: Some of my drawings featuring Eight, Charley and C’rizz in the TARDIS.
Characters/Pairings: Eighth Doctor, Charley Pollard, C'rizz, Tardis
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: Colourful, cosy, inventive, atmospheric, transparent... These gorgeous drawings of Eight, Charley, and C'rizz in the Tardis have it all. You always wanted to see the library on board? Here you can! Did you know there's also a huge greenhouse, with a swing and a beautiful view of the stars? Yep. You also get Eight in star-covered pyjamas, Charley in her private room, C'rizz connecting with a couple of plants - and much more! You can spend a long time looking at these and it's well worth it. Definitely one of my favourite sets of DW art ever.

Title: Human Behaviour
Creator:

st_aurafina
Rating: G
Word Count/Length/Size: 1688 words
Creator's Summary: The TARDIS learned a lot from her time in a human body; that doesn't mean she knows how to put a human together again.
Characters/Pairings: The TARDIS, Idris, Eleventh Doctor, Nyssa, Tegan Jovanka, Ace McShane, Seventh Doctor, Leela.
Warnings/Notes: None.

Reasons for reccing: Beautiful follow up and fixit for "The Doctor's Wife", as the TARDIS picks up the pieces of herself and Idris and tries to find out how to mend a mortal. Just lovely, with perectly in-character glimpses of former inhabitants of the TARDIS.

Rec [Art]: TARDIS Pillow Fort by JohannesVIII

Title: Untitled
Creator:

Rating: gen
Creator's Summary: I like to think the Doctor and her fam build giant pillow forts in the TARDIS console room sometimes, because these giant crystals look like the perfect structures for that
Characters/Pairings: TARDIS, Thirteenth Doctor, Graham O'Brien, Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: I love everything about this - the composition and the contrast of cold and warm colours, the lighting, the idea of a cosy pillow fort in the TARDIS, and the whole Fam sprawled out reading while the Doctor is busy expanding the fort.

Rec [2xArt]: Tardis & Eleventh Doctor fanart by Sunli-TCT and Agathexu

For the new monthly theme. These are both inspired by the same scene of Eleven tinkering with the Tardis, but fantastically different in style:

Creator's Summary: "All alone in space and time / There's nothing here but what here's mine / Something borrowed, something blue / Every me and every you"
Characters/Pairings: Eleventh Doctor, Tardis (Idris)
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: Wonderful mood and colours. Love the vertical format, the way Eleven looks and reaches up to her while she manifests out of the ship, her skirt still alight with the colours of the middle column. They are together in their own shared space out of time.

Rec [art]: The Doctor's Wife by Janey-Jane

Creator's Summary: (working title: 'Get in LOSER we’re going time traveling’)
Characters/Pairings: First Doctor, Tardis (Idris)
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: Once upon a time there was a Timelord who thought he'd steal a Tardis ... and got stolen right back. This is a beautiful piece and I love the colours and the likeness. The "this is more than I bargained for" look on the Doctor's face is hilarious.
