Spoilers: Everything up to and including “Marionette”
Summary: It’s easy to excuse what you want.
Disclaimer: Fringe belongs to Fox, the producers, the actors, and all the other professionals involved in the creation of the show.
A/N: So this is a character study in the guise of a ficlet, but after Peter’s surprising lack of awareness during the beginning of this season, I felt his mindset deserved exploration.

(The funny, the sad, the truly hideous thing was, he knew.)

Author: salienne
Characters: Ten/Rose
Rating: PG/PG-13
Spoilers: Through “The Impossible Planet”
Disclaimer: Doctor Who belongs to the BBC, RTD, and all the other professionals involved in the creation of the show; I just like to run around their playground now and again.
Summary: Scooti Manista is dead and the drills have stopped drilling. Before anyone goes anywhere, Rose has a moment to think, and she and the Doctor have a moment to talk.
Beta: The lovely Sara, who still really needs an lj.
A/N: Written for the Time in Flux ficathon at doctor_rose_fic. Also really late due to a new dog and a sick cat, but all is well with them now and hopefully with this fic. :) Any and all feedback is both appreciated and encouraged, and thank you very much for reading!

(Rose sat with her legs drawn up, her back pressed against a gray metal wall.)

(Showered, dressed, and very obviously irritated, Jack sat on the jump seat with his feet propped up on the console, fumbling with his wrist device.)

Part 1, Part 2

Title: And Deaths Redone (1/?)
Author: salienne
Characters: Doctor (Ten), Jack. Eventually Jack/Ianto, Gwen, Rhys, Alice, and really the whole Torchwood crew and then some
Spoiler Warning: Through Children of Earth
Rating: R
Summary: ( Here there be spoilers )
Disclaimer: Torchwood belongs to the BBC and the associated writers, directors, actors, etc. I just like to borrow the toys now and again, but I give them back.
Beta: Sara, whose lj is so rarely used that I forget its name
A/N: Yes this is a fix-it, but hopefully a plausible one. I’ve really tried to balance the drama here, with a mix of gain and sacrifice, bunnies and firestorms, and I hope what I’ve done works. As always, I’d love feedback, and I hope you guys enjoy!

Also, I’m desperately seeking a Brit-picker for this story, so if any of you are interested, just drop me a comment. You would have my eternal gratitude.

2008 Fic Round-Up

Bananas and India (Ten/Rose) - The Doctor and Rose visit a banana grove.

The Coward’s Way Out (Ten, Jack, Master) - After a particularly gruesome torture session, the Master leaves the Doctor and Jack alone in a cell together.

Learning Curve (Nine/Rose) - Rose learns that somehow, the Doctor has managed to go 900 years without ever riding a bike, and just what sort of person would she be if she didn't set out to remedy that situation?

Fools to Truth [1-4/?] (Ten/Rose, Master, Jack, Martha) - AU where Rose didn’t get trapped in Pete’s World. She (and Martha) were there throughout S3. Also, at the end of LotT, the Master isn’t shot.

Post-LotT. With the Master aboard the TARDIS, Rose and the Doctor must learn to coexist with the Time Lord who, for a year, destroyed their lives and the lives of all those on the planet below. A story about change and choices, about the growth of relationships and the unforeseen consequences our decisions can bring.

Pieces (Ten II/Rose) - There are several very fine lines between loving and settling and accepting. To Rose, they’re all just a big blur. A late-night conversation between Rose and the Doctor who is just not her Doctor.

Story Time and Things That Go Boom (Rose, Martha, Donna) - The adventures of three girls and a TARDIS.


To be honest, guys, I’m rather disappointed. Granted, this doesn’t count original fiction, but I still wish I’d done more. I guess this is what happens when you take organic chemistry over the summer and then 21 credits during Fall semester?

Title: Story Time and Things That Go Boom
Author: salienne
Rating: PG-13
Characters: Donna, Martha, Rose
Summary: Completely AU crack. The adventures of three girls and a TARDIS.
Spoilers: Journey's End, if you squint
Disclaimer: Not mine, but if it were, oh the fun I could have.
A/N: Since seeing Journey’s End (and even before), I’ve thought that Donna, Rose, Martha, and the TARDIS would be the best universe-saving group ever, and with them, who needs the Doctor anyway?

Special thanks to xsectumsemprax for word ideas and hippiebanana132 for some Brit-speak. Any errors, though, are mine, and feel free to point them out!

Dedicated to biggrstaffbunch who kicks the writing world’s communal butt, and is just overall awesome. I hope you like it, hon’!

(In which there is a bomb and strawberry daiquiris, and we find out what the Doctor and Donna really have on their backs)

Title: Fools to Truth (3/?)

Author: salienne

Betas: hippiebanana132 and lunaserenade. They kick quite a lot of butt.

Characters: Ten/Rose, mentions Martha, Jack, and the Master

Rating: PG-13 (will go up in later chapters)

Summary: AU where Rose didn’t get trapped in Pete’s World. She (and Martha) were there throughout S3. Also, at the end of LotT, the Master isn’t shot.

Post-LotT. With the Master aboard the TARDIS, Rose and the Doctor must learn to coexist with the Time Lord who, for a year, destroyed their lives and the lives of all those on the planet below.

Spoilers: Through “Last of the Time Lords”

Disclaimer: Not mine, but if it were, there would be far more ostriches involved.

A/N: This is a shorter chappie, but hopefully you all still like! :)

They stand at the console, Rose watching the screen and the Doctor with his hand on the lever that will take them away.

Finally guys, it's my Doctor/Rose/Master fic! :D

Title: Fools to Truth (1/?)

Beta: hippiebanana132. You rock, girl!
Characters: Ten/Rose, Martha, Martha’s family, Jack, the Master
Rating: PG-13 (will go up in later chapters)

Spoilers: Through “Last of the Time Lords”
Disclaimer: I do not own the Doctor, the Master, Rose, the TARDIS, the Valiant, or even a Jack teddy-bear plushie. All of the above belong to the BBC and the writers, producers, actors, and creators of Doctor Who. And I am nowhere near as brilliant as any of those people.
A/N: Well, I’ve been wanting to write this story, and have been planning on writing this story, and have been thinking about writing this story, for months now. It’s going to be long but fun, and I’m excited for it; hopefully, you guys will enjoy it and maybe even stick around for the ride! :)

He is placed in a holding cell that the TARDIS refuses to move any closer to the Doctor’s room.

Title: The Coward’s Way Out
Author: Salienne
Characters: Jack, Ten, Master
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: Not mine, sadly enough. Then again, I don’t know if I’d ever get the guts to torture my own characters for a year.
Spoilers: Through LotTL

Summary: The Doctor speaks in a quiet, urgent voice. “Jack, I can take the pain away.” His eyes pierce those of his once-companion, and his stomach clenches in something like fear, but not for himself.

After a particularly gruesome torture session, the Master leaves the Doctor and Jack alone in a cell together.

A/N: Well I've had this fic hidden away on my computer for a while now, a collection of my thoughts about why Jack chose to stay behind and just how the Doctor would feel about that. I'm araid it hasn't been betaed, but I'm content with it and I hope you guys will be too. So... enjoy! :)

A/N 1: wendymr pointed out that I wasn't entirely clear on Jack's motivations in this piece, so I tweaked it a little. I haven't actually changed anything that occurs or taken anything out; I just provided a larger peek into his thought processes. Hopefully things are a bit clearer now (and, obviously, work in the greater context of the story).

( They are left alone together in a cell meant for one person, a hard cot in one corner and a toilet in another. )

Title: A Storm That Was
Author: Salienne
Characters: Doctor/Rose established relationship, mentions of Romana, Susan, and OC’s
Rating: Hard R
Beta: All hail enigma731! Much love, dear. :D

I’m afraid she has never seen Doctor Who, though (I know, I know, I’m trying to fix that :) ), and was only able to beta the writing itself. Thus, any mistakes in DW history, characterization, etc. are my own.

Disclaimer: I don’t own the Doctor, Rose, the TARDIS, Gallifrey, or anything else Doctor Who. It all belongs to the BBC and the producers, directors, writers, actors, and anyone else I missed associated with Doctor Who.

Summary: Post “Fear Her”. What is there to hide under, what is there to run to or from, when there is no alien plot to foil or disaster to avert, when she has broken down his defenses and he can’t get up but he can’t just lie here either, when the past is clawing at him but leaving and being alone with these wounds is not something he is sure he can bear.

A/N: Not a Christmas-themed fic, I’m afraid, but something that has been brewing in my mind for a while. Now, coming in as a new Whovian, all the knowledge I have of Who comes from wikipedia, fellow fans, the TV movie, and the New Series. Thus, any and all mentions of Gallifrey, the Time War, etc. are mainly my own musings. So, notice something glaringly wrong? Tell me! Like something? Mention it! And, most of all, enjoy!
