Story: Relict
Author: Ninamusing
Rating: Adult
Word Count: 57,387+
Author's Summary: The TARDIS team dances around their new relationship. As they draw closer, the connection creates unexpected resonances.
Characters/Pairings: Nine/Jack/Rose
Warnings: Explicit Sex
Recced because: This is Ninamusing's amazing H/C WIP. When I first encountered it, it grabbed me by the throat and refused to let go. It's a love story, but not one that shirks the darker moments these three are capable of. Both the characters and their adventures are 100% believable; if Doctor Who didn't run in a family-friendly timeslot, it might look like this. Even if you don't read works-in-progress, this one's worth getting into. No matter how long you have to wait for each new chapter, it will always be worth it.
The bazaars of the city of Axhe on Aretaxela in the fifth century of the Magnum Pax offered practically everything the traveller in time and space needed. Sex was freely traded here, safely and openly and with great skill and style, and he had visited several establishments, oddly dissatisfied with even the most beautiful, exotic, and talented offered to him. He was eyeing up a long, lean pantherine creature on the dance floor of Zarua’s when the broad, triangular head turned to him, fixing him with a golden stare, and he realized why he wasn’t already there, running his hands over the lush black fur and purring with promise. The gaze was intelligent and powerful. And not blue.
