Creator's Summary: In some timelines, Captain Jark Harkness rescues her from prison. In others, she escapes on her own. In many of them, she makes it back to New Year's Day in Sheffield, 2021.
This is not one of those timelines.
Pairings/Characters: Thirteenth Doctor/The Master (Dhawan)
Warnings/Notes: (partially taken from the fic tags): Prison, unreality, disorientation, Gaslighting, Medical Torture (of sorts), Hallucinations (or not), Blood, some injury but nothing too excessive, Hurt/Comfort, mostly hurt but there IS comfort I promise, Non-Consensual Drug Use
Reasons for reccing: Re-recommending this for 2021 in the anniversary challenge, as this fic is based on the 2021 New Year’s special. This is my favorite 13/Dhawan fic, and probably my fave Doctor/Master fic overall. It’s suspenseful and exciting and has gorgeous imagery. The Doctor and Master are very realistic and in-character. Quotes from “Darkness” by Lord Byron are in the story, and they’re woven in very well and help enhance it. The author also made two drawings that go along with the fic, and they’re both very nice. All in all, this is a FANTASTIC story.

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.
