Three dollars and some change

I'm intellectually dead today, and the writing will not come to mind. So a few recs in the obligatory "Look I have a shiny new fandom!" way

Macro recs:

TW: Now all they need is a musical episode! Torchwood/Buffy the Vampire Slayer crossover macros

TW: I have night terrors: Torchwood/Gilmore Girls crossover. For the epic win. (From 2x06 Reset)

TW: Assorted Torchwood stuff (up to 2x06 Reset). PS Totally check out the alt text.

DW: In AD 2101, War Was Beginning. Yes indeed, someone has set them up the bomb. Back with the Ninth Doctor.

Fic recs

The Doctor And Mr. Jones (Torchwood/Who crossover) by sam_storyteller
Rating: R for some Jack/Ianto naughtiness, but not much.
Summary: The Doctor thought he was alone in the universe -- but Torchwood is about to prove him wrong.
I say: The original Time Lord!Ianto story. I think Sam has a lock on Torchwood fic, frankly. He makes it look easy.

Five Times Owen Harper Said "Let's All Have Sex" by ninjasnano
Characters: Ianto/Owen/Tosh/Gwen
Rating: NC-17, for vaguely described violence, death, and... well, sex.
Spoilers: "Sleeper" and Owen's report on the Himalayas (taken from the BBC website).
Summary: It's become something of a running joke.
I say: First off, it's got great team w/o Jack. Secondly, team orgy. Thirdly, it makes them all seem like a workable unit. Love.

Monsters Ianto Has Known by kita0610
Rating: Light R, for violence, imagery, language, and Jack/Ianto sex.
Spoilers: Vague, through “Meat”
I say: A nice quick look, via Ianto, at the world of Torchwood.

Vid recs (and there are some youtube embeds). No spoilers past Something Borrowed I think.


TW: End of the World News
Vidded byandrastewhite
Song by Tom McRae
I say: I love this song with a burning passion and the video too -- it's ensemble and everyone gets love and Jack is the heart of Torchwood.

TW: This Is Everything
Vidded by sol_se
Song by Tegan and Sara
Baby, this is the last honest look I'll ever give. (Jack/Doctor, Jack/Ianto, Jack/Gwen)
I say: I also love this song, and it's a great look at Jack's relationships with his people

TW: Papa Don't Preach
Vidded by fan_eunice and greensilver
Song by Madonna
Summary: Jack? Is keeping his baby
I say: Seriously. Crack on toast. And I think everyone on the Internet has seen it by now, and if not, you are missing out.


DW: My Skin
Vidded by raspberry_splat
Song by Natalie Merchant
Summary: A damaged Doctor finds, but also loses, much.
I say: When you're looking for some broken!Doctor, look here. It's the Doctor's angst distilled and crystallized and oh so lovely.

Who, M.D.
Doctor Who opening credits, done House M.D. style. Thanks to booster17 for this one.


The Time War - Romana POV
I found this when I was writing Pocket Watch Boy (for reasons that are a little more obvious when one thinks about it), and it's beautiful because it splices together Who footage from all over, going back to '79 and forward to now, and it doesn't seem forced or all that strange. Much love for the old Who here.



And an added bonus of Stargate Atlantis:
The Pegasus Tinies: A Dreadful Abecedarium, with Selected Illustrations by argosy and _kiden
The illustrated alphabet of death.
I say: Do I need to say more than, "I is for Iratus, got squashed like a bug" ?
