field_reportsSo I have a new fannish obsession. (Those who've followed my recs over the years are like, "Yeah, what's new.") That obsession is Doctor Who, the new series.
I still have...issues with NC-17 Whofic, or even outright romantic fic, although I've read and enjoyed fair amount. I think the best stories in the fandom are those like![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
loneraven's Lovers, 'Tis Almost Fairy-Time, which is much more about the wonders of the Doctor's intellect and experience of the universe than his sexual prowess. It's also really well-written, and captures a sort of quiet and awed mood while at the same time feeling very much like the inside of Rose's head.
(Now, I went hunting and hunting for this story, to the exclusion of a ton of other Whofics I could have spent the time recommending, because I cleverly neglected to memory it when I first found it. So you know it has to be good, if I went to all that trouble.)
