Story: Ten and Rose Do the Hellmouth
Author: [livejournal.com profile] biggrstaffbunch
Rating: All Ages
Word Count: 6,467
Author's Summary: A visit to the Hellmouth so Rose can see her first-ever vampire results in even wackier hijinks as the Doctor finally goes toe-to-toe with someone sexier than him. Or, Rose Meets Dracula.
Characters/Pairings: The Doctor (10th), Rose Tyler, Other Characters
Warnings: n/a

Recced because: I promised a funny fic recommendation for my last one, and this one isn't merely funny, it's hilarious. Rose meets Dracula here (and this Dracula is particular awesome), and if that isn't enough to pique your interest, this is a Doctor Who/Buffy the Vampire Slayer crossover (although no worries if you aren't a fan of the latter--all that's necessary to the plot is explained in the story, and the primary focus is still the Doctor and Rose, although the action is set in Sunnydale). This fic is one I have re-read over and over again, mostly because it makes me laugh, in that I-really-shouldn't-drink-coffee-while-I-read-this sort of way.

Story:  ours is not a love song (your heart is not the beat)
Author:  biggrstaffbunch
Rating: Teen
Word Count:  2,455
Author's Summary:  "Reunions, you're told, are never easy." Rose comes back to the doctor, but there are things that they both have to re-learn. Five times the doctor wondered if it was worth it, and one time he didn't have to question at all.
Characters/Pairings:  Ten/Rose, Jack
Warnings: non-graphic sex

Recced because:  The language here is gorgeous, full of unexpected and elegant turns of phraseWriting in the second person is risky, but the author here pulls it off skillfully.  It's not your average schmoopy post-Doomsday reunion story.  The Doctor has Rose back, but nothing about this relationship is easy.  The characters' regrets and questions are achingly believable, but so is the whisper of hope at the end.  Bittersweet and beautiful, this story belongs at the top of your reading list right now.
