Story: Glass and Water
Author: Becky H
Rating: Adult
Word Count: 2339
Author's Summary: They met a dozen times over sixty years. The meetings were always accidental and always ended in a cheap hotel. Neither of them ever asked, or told, the other anything. The Doctor always seemed to understand. Jack never did.
Characters/Pairings: Five/Jack
Warnings: Explicit Sex
Recced because: This is a beautiful little vignette about the true nature of Jack's immortality. It's sweet and hot and timey-wimey and philosophical, and it proves that no one can show up the true nature of the Doctor's sins quite like his previous selves can. Even if you haven't watched Classic Who or aren't familiar with the fifth Doctor, you can read this one--you'll understand more than enough to "get it."
