FIC SUMMARY: Ace is no stranger to betrayal.

RECCER'S NOTES: Ever wanted to know what was going on in Ace's head during that moment? Ever wanted an extension of the ending of the story plus a coda to Survival? Behold! For this story delivers!

MAIN CHARACTERS: Ace McShane (and Manisha Purkayastha)

FIC SUMMARY: There are all kinds of monsters.

RECCER'S NOTES: Something I don't see often is the exploration of Ace and Manisha's friendship. This piece, one of those rare explorations, contrasts childhood make-believe with the real monsters of the real world. And yes, it's yet another fic by whispersecho.

MAIN CHARACTERS: Barbara Wright, Ian Chesterton (and some surprise characters)

FIC SUMMARY: Ian and Barbara return home to find they are two years out from their own time. They have an awful lot of explaining to do, or *someone* does. Mostly First Doctor era, but other characters appear in Chapter 5.

RECCER'S NOTES: One of my favourite seventh Doctor and Ace writers wrote for my OTP as well. How could I resist? It's another take on "Barbara and Ian are back" fic, but with a bit more Dr Who-ness. You'll see when you read it.

MAIN CHARACTERS: The TARDIS, Ace McShane, seventh Doctor

FIC SUMMARY: The stray is in one of the laboratories, mixing things that oughtn’t to be mixed.

RECCER'S NOTES: TARDIS POV! Which is something outside the box (or, rather, inside the box... hope you liked my joke). It's lovely, and so is the small interaction between the Doctor and Ace.

MAIN CHARACTERS: First Doctor, Susan Foreman, Barbara Wright, Ian Chesterton

FIC SUMMARY: Written for Tic Tac Woe, the Apocabingo Challenge of wilful mass destruction. Prompt: Evolution/Absorbed Into New Species.

RECCER'S NOTES: It's an interesting look at the Earth's far future, with some nice dialogue. Kudos for morbid!Barbara, that's something fans don't quite catch on while watching her serials.

MAIN CHARACTERS: Seventh Doctor, Ace

FIC SUMMARY: "Right," Ace said, her thought briefly resting on the can of Nitro-Nine she'd concealed in her petticoat just in case of emergencies. "Is this why we're telling everyone I'm your wife?"

RECCER'S NOTES: An extension of thisbluespirit's fic (which is also excellent) that is a lot of fun! And then it hits you. The characterisation is so on point. Fake / pretend relationship, but they don't end up together.

MAIN CHARACTERS: Susan Foreman, Ping Cho

FIC SUMMARY: They had been best friends when they had adventured together in Cathay, but now Susan and Ping Cho were older and they often wondered what became of the other.

RECCER'S NOTES: The relationship between Susan and Ping Cho is great, and this is a bit of a different take. They're both older and wondering what became of each other, and it's a nice character piece.

MAIN CHARACTERS: The First Doctor, Susan Foreman, Barbara Wright, Ian Chesterton

FIC SUMMARY: The TARDIS's translation circuit is sabotaged by small, furry aliens. Then it all goes downhill from there.

RECCER'S NOTES: Interesting use of the (lack of) translation device in the TARDIS, plus an interesting setting and a bit of timey-wimey shenanigans. It's also very funny. I come back to this one every few months.
