Sorry I'm late. I was away this weekend and got home far later than expected. However, it's still Sunday in some parts of the world, so I'm squeezing in rec #7. I hope you've found something to enjoy in the recs this week. It's certainly been fun compiling them! Here, then, is rec #7:
Story (Series, in this case): Adventures of a Line-Hopper (crossover with Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Author: secooper87
Rating: Teen overall, though several stories are rated All Ages
Word Count: 263,876 and counting
Author's Summary: The Doctor met Buffy in an alternate timeline, one from before the War, in which Daleks invaded the gym at Hemery High School instead of vampires. Now Buffy and the Doctor must learn about this new reality.
Characters/Pairings: Doctor/Buffy-ish and yet basically gen with canon pairings, mostly 10th & 11th Doctor with references to 8th & 9th, Martha, Donna, River, Amy, Rory, and Buffy and the Scooby gang.
Warnings: None
Recced because: One of the best things a crossover can do is give new insights into familiar characters as they interact with characters and settings that are canonically unfamiliar to them. This series does that well, as Buffy and the Scoobies interpret the Doctor in various incarnations through their own filters and vice versa. Also, the Doctor and Buffy's relationship is nearly as timey-wimey as the Doctor's relationship with River, not to mention the two intersect.
( Long series gets a long teaser. )
