Genuine crossovers, where characters from both universe's meet and hold their own in balance with each other, are remarkably hard to write particularly when, as here, you are throwing a genuine plot into the mix. The Tenth Doctor meets the Firefly clue, facilitated by River Tam.

OK, so I have a bit of a thing for Donna fixits, but this one is lovely - it makes her both Doctorish and Donnaish and avoids undoing the mindwipe.

What would happen if it were the British branch of SHIELD that set up the Avengers? Well, it transpires that Edmund Blackadder would be in charge with Malcolm Tucker as his right hand and he would be faced with trying to get The Doctor, Sherlock Holmes, Harry Potter, James Bond and Gene Hunt to work together as a team. It goes about as well as you would expect.

What I love about this: Unsurprisingly there were an awful lot of fixits written at the end of NuWho season 5. This is one of my favourites and all the better for being short. It knows it's Who lore as well.

Characters/Pairings: Donna, Ten, Compassion, Fitz and others
Length: Several Short Stories





What I love about this: This is a set of short Doctor Who stories all based on random prompts from iTunes. I'm particularly reccing Memories like Pressed Flowers a lovely melancholic piece with the Doctor and Donna set just after Forest of the Dead and Just as Fast as we Can in which Compassion sort of kidnaps Fitz, but they are all good.

Much Silliness
