Doctor Who:

Midnight continues to spawn great fanfiction. Now someone has tackled the passengers themselves. Six short portraits, drawn wonderfully well: Humans

"Tenth Doctor meets old companions" is one of my favourite subgenres. I also have a huge soft spot for Jo Grant. So I was delighted to find, this morning, not one but two stories who have Ten encounter Jo when a few years have passed for her since The Green Death (and centuries for him). Both authors offer a plausible older Jo, in one case only five years, in the other enough to be at her daughter's wedding. Both manage that delicate balance, retain the quintessence of the Doctor/Jo relationship from the Three era while not ignoring that this is a different regeneration.

Crystalline gives the two of them another spirited adventure, co-starring Bessie. Extra bonus for Jo introducing the youngish-looking Ten as "my assistant" to someone.

Score your own scene: wherein the Doctor anonymously dances with Jo at that wedding, but she figures out who he is eventually. Leaves you with the same feeling those final scenes from The Green Death do.


Lost:

Yet they shall live: future ensemble fic, spoilers for all of season 4. Poetic and dark.
