Rec: Unbound

[tgjerusalem.livejournal.com]

Story: Unbound
Author: Sub Rosa
Rating: Adult
Word Count: 33717 (in nine chapters + epilogue)
Author's summary: Turlough develops an urgent need, wants the Doctor's help, and gets more than he bargained for.
Characters/Pairings: Five/Turlough, Tegan
Warnings: Explicit sex, kink of the consensual variety, reference to non-con in the past, angst

Recced because: I’m not sure where the fanon that Turlough is queer as a $3 bill and has a taste for bondage came from, but I fully support it

The story is actually more interesting, and serious, than the PWP-sounding description would imply.  Explores some of the dynamics and implications of voluntary submission and its distinction from abuse and exploitation.

And there doesn't seem to be that much good Doctor/Turlough slash in the world, which is a damn shame.

I have no idea but I'm willing to bet it's got something to do with that bondage-esk scene in Enlightenment...

::note to self- watch "Enlightenment"::

Sorry, I'm still catching up on classic!who.

If you like Turlough, Enlightenment has oh so much to reccommend it, yes. And Strickson hams it up liken woah (I mean that in the best possible way, I adore his ham. It is quality.)
