Paean
Rating: adult
(off-screen sexual content, some consent issues, swearing. More of a problems fic than a shippy one.)
Pairings: Seven/Ainley!Master, other Doctor/Master pairs alluded to. Also small amounts of Master/Other.
Characters: Asexual!Master, the Doctor, the Rani, Drax. Some Doctor/Master content.
Wordcount: 3,700ish
Summary: There are different forms of want, and different forms of need.
A/N: This is basically all of my asexual!Master headcanon, in run-on sentence form. Huge, unimaginable thanks are due to my betas

tweedymcgee and

justice_turtle, who helped me get my head together on where this all was going. Thanks so much!

Two for the price of one today because they're both quite short, and they both share the same author, the same pairing, and the same genus (i.e. that fine drabble challenge we were talking about earlier in the week). (are the crossovers too daunting? let me know if you want something else. now - onto the recs!)

Titles: 'Bad Apples' and 'Gold Anniversary'
Pairing: Seven/Ainley!Master (sometimes he's a bit cheetah-y. I'll let you guess which fic that happens in...)
Length: Both less than one comment long
Summary: The titles will suffice, I believe, given the shortness
Author on LJ:

Why this must be read: Tu is excellent at the drabble challenge. This is not to say that others aren't, but I am always impressed by the way she constructs tiny ficlets around my sometimes mindless prompts. The two short ficlets are perfect examples of that spirit of invention, and really good examples of short fics that are exactly the right length - they imply more about their surrounding and don't need to be longer to convey their themes . Sweet and funny, and lovely Seven (and Ace, who creeps into the latter) character moments.

Excerpt: (from Gold Anniversary)
"Ah. Ace.” Settling back into the ornate chair he was bound to, the Doctor offered her a sheepish smile. "I thought I told you to wait in the TARDIS."

Good Day, Ladies, Gentlemen, and those of the 26 genders of Metabelix 9. My name is RF93, and I am to be your latest Reccer.

I would like to speak to you briefly on the subject of Doctor/Master Fanvids.

Now I'm sure many or most of you will have seen the worst this category has to offer, shoddily constructed affairs set to pop or rock songs, looping the same three scenes from 'Last of the Time Lords' a half a dozen times.

While these can be entertaining, I understand that the fine members of B_E are a certain level of connoisseur, and expect nothing but the best for their viewing pleasure.

To that effect, I wish to introduce, or rather remind my readers that while we are fortunate enough to have extraordinary authors and remarkable artists, Doctor/Master fandom is host to several excellent fanvids of both old and new D/M varieties.

As with most fanfiction of this pairing, two basic genres of vid exist. For the purposes of this review, I have chosen one of each category.

The Epic: Space Dementia by nastally
Pairing: All Doctor/Master, emphasis on New Who.
Why It Should Be Watched: The creator describes this as her Magnum Opus, and it truly is. The editing is beautiful, with some of the best timing and cuts I have ever seen, set to slightly haunting music. While not a fast paced video, it does not give the feeling of slowing or growing repetetive throughout its six minute run, the artist using every era and (my favorite gimmick), well incorporated quotes from the show to paint one of the best psychological and historical profiles of this pairing.
Warnings: Leaves that wonderfully slightly sad and disturbed feeling in the pit of your stomach that only the best fics and artwork do.

The Crack: Drop Dead Gorgeous by GeckoGoose
Pairing: All Doctor/Masters up to 'LotTL'
Why It Should Be Watched: In the way that only sometime crack!fic and vids can do, this is a perfect representation of Doctor/Master, (to say nothing of Doctor/Master Fandom) through the years. With every canonized version of both our Best Enemies, quick and playful editing and above all, perhaps the catchiest song with remarkably relevant lyrics since ABBA's Mamma Mia. While highly under appreciated at only 1200 views, this is perhaps one of the best in D/M Crack!vids.
Warnings: No, seriously. This song will stick in your head whether you love it or hate it.

Thank you for your time. Please continue to enjoy your LiveJournal Experience.

mezzopianoforte and I discussed an updated (and rude) version of A Christmas Carol once, and it got turned into a Sevenish comic. As you do.

Today I'm going to rec two fics, a story and its remix. Quite often remixes can be read independently of their originals. In fact, I read this remix first, and thought I understood it (after reading it a second time, and wrapping my mind around its twisty-ness) but then I read the original, and, oh. I reccommend reading the the remix first so you can enjoy a good D/M fic before getting to the twist.

Title: You Will Be Me (The When I'm Gone Ontological Tautology Remaster)
Pairing: Theta/Koschei, Three/Delgado!Master, Shalka, Six/Ainley!Master, Seven/Ainley!Master
Length:2367 words
Warnings: this will break your brain
Author on LJ (or Teaspoon, or Prydonian): Nope (that's actually the author's name)
Why this must be read: Because it supplies us with two missing scenes I've been craving for a long time: one right after "The Daemons" and the other right before the TVM with Seven and Ainley!Master on Skaro. Because it's a cool remix (especially once you get to the bonus feature extended endings) that manages to add YET ANOTHER TWIST to a story that you didn't think could be twistier (this, my friends, is the fanfic of Seven's dreams). Because you can read it three times in a row and each time discover something new. Because the Master cryptically quotes the Beatles and Zagreus and the Doctor himself at the Doctor, and they play chess in a way that's not already clichéd, and generally are friends far more than enemies.

And now the original:

Title: All You Doctors
Characters: Seven, Ace
Length:
Warnings: this will break your brain even more
Author on LJ:

biichan
Why this must be read:
You can tell some really complicated stories about time travel. And then you can tell stories like this one. The chicken and the egg? Have nothing on this. If you love Seven, or paradoxes, or crazy thought experiments, you will love this.

Since all Doctors are created equal, and one man's scary-eyed untouchable Four is another's 70s-haired sex god, I thought I'd make a D/M sticker for every canon era, so that all may enjoy their oh-tee-pee, and seeing several pairings they never wanted to envisage in the first place.

Of course, they're only physical stickers for me. They're just little pictures for everyone else, but they do come in equation and pretentious verse flavours.
