Title: The Knots that Bind
Creator: [archiveofourown.org profile] glompcat
Rating: General Audiences
Word Count/Length/Size: 2134 words
Creator's Summary: Getting tied up was an occupational hazard, but this was knot how Romana expected her day to go...
Characters/Pairings: Fourth Doctor/Romana II, followed by Eighth Doctor/Romana II
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: For the "Accidental Marriage" square in my Reccers' Bingo. It's a cute and pretty fluffy story where some guards tie up the Doctor and Romana (as usual) but accidentally use a ceremonial knot used in Gallifreyan weddings. They decide it doesn't have to count... but then, on the other hand, it could... Lots of very in-character banter and fun Gallifreyan worldbuilding.

Title: Renewal
Creator: [archiveofourown.org profile] CeruleanTactician
Rating: General Audiences
Word Count/Length/Size: 3657 words
Creator's Summary:

The Doctor and Charley accidentally get married after a misunderstanding on an alien planet.

It doesn’t have to mean anything. Not unless they want it to.

Characters/Pairings: Eighth Doctor/Charley Pollard
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: Also for the "Accidental Marriage" square. Eight and Charley were made for this trope, with their spectacularly ambiguous will-they-won't-they-are-they-aren't-they relationship, and this fic hits all the right notes, with the Doctor hilariously blasé about their accidental marriage and Charley unsure what to make of any of it. The alien planet is beautifully described, too. And the epilogue is adorable!

Title: Hitch in the Proceedings
Creator: [archiveofourown.org profile] thisbluespirit
Rating: General Audiences
Word Count/Length/Size: 530 words
Creator's Summary: Seven, Ace, a mysterious alien rite, and sadly no explosions.
Characters/Pairings: Seventh Doctor & Ace McShane
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: If Seven and Ace meet a trope, the trope is likely to end up in flaming bits all over the place... A cute and hilarious platonic subversion of the accidental marriage trope. I especially appreciated the punchline.

Title: Time Cannot Erase
Creator: Adele Lorienne
Rating: (None given, but All ages)
Word Count/Length/Size:
Creator's Summary: Before Rose and River, there was Charley. Charlotte Pollard: “the girl who never was,” for whom the Eighth Doctor would openly defy the laws of time and Time Lords and sacrifice everything to save. Though, in the end, it wasn’t enough….
Characters/Pairings: Eighth Doctor/Charley Pollard
Warnings/Notes: None.

Reasons for reccing: I stumbled over this the other day while searching for something else, and am so glad I did! It's completely gorgeous and sweet, and I love the warmth it practically glows with and the detail in the TARDIS library, not to mention the fun socks! I'm still a-flail every time I look at it again. I was meaning to do a different pairing for my Favourite Pairings challenge, but after finding this, I had to rec it.

Title: Love Me (Love Me Not)
Creator: [livejournal.com profile] laughinggas13
Rating: G
Word Count/Length/Size: 962 words
Creator's Summary: N/A
Characters/Pairings: Eighth Doctor/Charley Pollard
Warnings/Notes: None. Set between Seasons of Fear and Neverland, but not spoilery.

Reasons for reccing: This one fits both my seasonal challenge (Favourite Pairings) and the current monthly theme of Eighth Doctor era works. I've loved this ficlet for a long while and could never rec it before, as it wasn't archived to Teaspoon. It's short and simple, but captures a lot of the 'walking-on-broken-eggshells' underside to the lightness of the Eight-Charley relationship, as Charley begins to navigate the possibilities (and impossibities) of what they can be to each other.
