Rec: Boxing Day

Title: Boxing Day
Word count: 6830
Author: Lyricwritesprose
Author summary: While trying to cope with grief and survivor guilt, Wilf meets the one person he never wanted to see.
Characters: Eleventh Doctor, Wilfred Mott
Warnings: None

Recced because:
I always enjoy fics where Wilf and the Doctor meet up again. Wilf is one of my favourite companions anyway, and because they share a secret, and they're both old men by their species' standards, it seems that they'd really have a lot to talk about. This is a well-written story in which Wilf encounters Eleven and gets an opportunity he really should have had in the series. It does a good job showing the differences between Ten and Eleven, and showing Wilf's reaction to a new Doctor. It also contains this amusing and pithy description of Eleven:  Extra chin, hold the eyebrows.

Oh this is one of my favorites, even though honestly, all lyricwritesprose's stuff is amazing.

I'll have to go through her stuff on Teaspoon and see what I haven't read yet!

Have to say, I very much agree with saaammie - all of her fiction is gorgeous and thoroughly enjoyable. This is one of my favs as well, cause...who doesn't like Wilf?
