Author's Summary: She's doing this to him because she loves him - well, some other version of him. The one in the real world - but she's doing this because she loves him. Really. Really, really. He'll understand soon. Just not right now. But he'll understand. Eventually, Rose Tyler will make him understand everything, even this. darkfic
Characters/Pairings: Ten/Rose…or not. Pete’s World!Jack comes into it as well.
Warnings: Non-con, violence, disturbingness
Recced because: I’m frankly stunned this story hasn’t been recced here before. The Rose it presents is very, very different to the Rose we know, but just similar enough to send shivers up your spine. This story is incredibly dark but the way it plays out, and the sheer quality of the writing, is all so entrancing that you can’t look away. Without spoiling anything, the end is so, so powerful and triumphant and sad. In short, this is one devastating, chilling and utterly disturbing fic, it’s incredibly well written, and it is worth your time.

That would be my final rec for this week. I hope you’ve enjoyed the fics! :)

Author's Summary:  Following the Star Whale debacle, Amy let her insecurities take over. But only for a little while.
Characters/Pairings: Gen, really, but Eleven/Amy if anything.
Warnings: none
Recced because: This is a lovely piece of post-5-2 fic that addresses the Doctor’s 'outburst' during the climax of that episode in a way that isn’t wangsty or overdramatic. Amy’s feelings regarding the whole Beast Below deal are written very well– after all, what would it be like to discover that your Raggedy Doctor, your wonderful imaginary friend and your childhood hero who came back for you after all those years, had a temper and made mistakes? It’s funny, sweet and a great interlude between 5-2 and 5-3.
