Questioning is useless. You may begin work, peasant." Well, whatever you say, brain. Here you are! Enjoy =)

Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] a_phoenixdragon for the constant support, squeeing, and giving me suggestions I ended up not following when I got stuck and begged for them, lol. And for being a shining star ♥

Title: Slivers of ice
Author: flowsoffire
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing/characters: River/Eleven, mentions of the Ponds, Clara and Madame Vastra.
Genre: Romance/Angst
Rating: T
Word count: c. 3300
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Summary: River does not approve of her husband retiring on a cloud. She thought she could make a difference; the presumption did not last long. In which the dark days seem too dark to breathe through, and a living woman is treated as a ghost. Headcanon/insight piece, set between Manhattan and Snowmen.
Author's note: Holy goodness! This fic was a long time coming. Well, months in fact. Originally this was me dealing with Manhattan and Snowmen, and filling in my headcanon blanks, as I couldn’t imagine how River could have allowed her husband to go off retiring on his cloud, of all things, without delivering a good kick to his sorry Time Lord arse. Then time went by with the fic fully written on my notebook and me too busy or lazy to type, edit and post it—the finale happened, and my headcanon was shoved upside down. XD It’s taken me that long to properly tackle this fic and give it a good rewrite and a new direction. Got done eventually.

I have the lovely [livejournal.com profile] a_phoenixdragon to thank for her relentless and squeeful support! Thanks for always being so supportive, honey =)

To help figure out the setting: the Doctor is between Manhattan and Snowmen, after Darillium. River has done Manhattan, but not Darillium yet when she seeks him out. The rest should be self-explanatory.

Enjoy!

Title: Oxygen and Ozone
Author: flowsoffire
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing/characters: River Song, Eleven, Rory Williams, Amelia Pond. Hints of River/Eleven and Rory/Amy.
Genre: Family/Drama
Rating: K+
Wordcount: co. 2000 words.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Summary: in a dance out of pace or a maze of a path, they find each other through time. River's journey in scattered order, to husband, father and mother.
Author's Notes: fic written for the wonderful fanwork exchange Eleventyfest and the recipient [livejournal.com profile] lovelythings. (All the other gorgeous entry can be found on Eleventyfest's page.) Three separate parts on the theme of found families, for my prompter's first request.
Just for the record, for the second and third I picked sentences from the book The Bell Jar, which I used as prompts: for the second it was "I couldn't find my father anywhere", and the third: "I had the impression that it wasn't night and it wasn't day, but some lurid third interval that had suddenly slipped between them and would never end." (Used as inspiration.)

Title: Silence in between
Author: flowsoffire
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing/characters: Eleven, River, TARDIS
Genre: Romance/Angst/Drama
Rating: K+
Word count: c. 450
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Summary: In the dark days, he digs deep into himself and curls into the hollow cavern of his ship, exploring the labyrinth of loss, mourning her and them. The TARDIS stands, vacant and wide, his guardian—his vessel, eternal. /An angsty pre-Snowmen drabble, TARDIS POV.
Author's note: Finally, the last one of my drabbles. Dedicated to [livejournal.com profile] elisi, whose wonderful post-finale meta, including widower!Doctor, inspired this—or rather, set the atmosphere. The very much depressing atmosphere, I'm afraid. My Doctor, I like him broken quite a bit. *hearts*
Also, TARDIS' POV. I do believe that's a first for me.
The title comes from a line from the gorgeous song No Light, No Light by Florence and the Machine ("You are the hole in my head / You are the space in my bed / You are the silence in between / What I thought and what I said.") That line seemed quite fitting of those two and that stage of their relationship.

Title: Got to run to her when she calls
Author: flowsoffire
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing/characters: River/Eleven, hints of Clara
Genre: Romance/Angst
Rating: K+
Word count: c. 200
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Summary: Alone, and yet never alone. The Doctor turned back to his own time stream, bleeding light all over his tomb. The shadow of his wife hung all over him, always would. /A River/Eleven pack-of-feels drabble, set at the end of Name of the Doctor.
Author's note: This little thing was fresh from the finale, all swelling with feels. MY OTP. MY LOVES. Hopefully you'll enjoy it too. Set right after River's disappearance and before the Doctor steps into his time stream. Title is a line from the song Message by Syntax, which fits the moment in a SURREAL way. Actually, I'd kill to have someone do a Name of the Doctor vid for that song. IT WORKS TOO WELL. (And for the record, "her" can refer to either River or Clara, up to interpretation.)

Author: flowsoffire

Pairing/characters: Clara/River, hints of River/Eleven
Genre: Humor/Romance
Rating: T
Word count: c. 2700
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Summary: Where Clara decides she really is quite fond of golden curls, a quick gun, a feminine hand on the TARDIS, sharp grins and innuendos and winking and the fluttering feeling in her belly. And is in for more than one surprise.
Author's note: Was a bit intrigued by the idea of Clara/River, so I figured I’d try my hand at it before the finale could make it AU! Hence this fun little thing. Title comes from a line of the song Midnight Show by The Killers. Enjoy!

So, I've been vaguely thinking for a little while that Clara/River flirting (okay… Clara wanting to jump River is what I have in mind…) would be really cool, both in the finale and in fics. I would love it if that was part of Moff's "love triangle, but not what you're thinking!" plan, instead of… a love triangle… which I'd hate.

I've seen it done, and well done, but as a side thing in Eleven/River fics. However, I was convinced there were probably plenty of fun little fics shipping that around the fandom, and I was very entertained by the idea… But when I checked yesterday, I could find nothing of the sort either on FF.net or on AO3 and Teaspoon. I was pretty surprised—not that it isn't a big thing, they haven't even met on screen, but fandom does explore a lot! So I was wondering why nobody much has been writing it. Each of them is flirty, sassy, in each case there's a line to imply that they like girls too… Besides, come on. Eleven's face.

Personally, I'm not going to make it an OTP because Eleven/River is the core of all things and you just don't touch them, but I have more of a thing for Clara/River than Clara/Eleven (I love them, but not that way. Platonic!smitten)… Does anyone have thoughts about this? They should be a thing!

Finishing this by a pimp for [livejournal.com profile] dqbunny's lovely fics The lone and level sands stretch far away and The caged bird sings with fearful trill of the things unknown, both of which are AMAZING River/Eleven, angsty and insightful and hopeful and intense, with a delightful Clara in the middle, River/Clara flirting, smitten!Eleven, and, my GOD, Eleven/River/Clara/Jack as the brand new Team TARDIS. Yes. This is the stuff of my dreams. (Also, look at those titles… Enough said, no?)

All right, so like most of us DW fans around the world, I watched the Rings of Akhaten, with ALL THE SYMBOLISM—and in-between loving Clara and wondering about Clara and the grandfather theme and her mum’s role in the story (there’s something, there’s something, there’s something going on with herrrrrr…) I just couldn’t seem to stop thinking about River. Happens to me a lot in episodes she’s absolutely not supposed to appear in, except that here there were REASONS!

Summary: Eleven comes back where River Song saved him, and where he saved her. /Library fic, set after the mini episode Last Night. An anti fix-it of sorts.
Author's note: This piece is set directly after the mini episode Last Night, so you might not get it all if you haven't seen that. Title is a line from the gorgeous song Shake It Out by Florence + The Machine—really fitting lyrics. Enjoy, hopefully =)

Summary: "In Rory's dreams, there is a little girl that dances right beyond his reach, lost and found. " Some Rory insight about his relationship with his daughter. Includes references to Amy and Eleven.
Author's note: Here is a bit of Rory goodness. It was mostly meant to be centred on his relationship with his daughter, but a bit of Amy and Eleven found their way in there too. Enjoy!
Inspiration for the title came from the song Astronaut by Amanda Palmer.

Author: flowsoffire
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing/characters: River/Eleven, Donna Noble
Genre: Drama/Hurt/Comfort
Rating: K+
Word count: c. 2700
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Summary: The Doctor aches, loses and misses like he always does, and River watches and talks, tries to ease or share the pain. Where new suffering make the old hurt afresh, a time-crossed couple struggles for balance, and the most important woman in the universe is remembered. Post-God Complex, Eleven/River, Donna references.
Author's note: This is dedicated two ways: to [livejournal.com profile] angel1605, who suggested I write a fic in which Eleven tells River about Donna, and to [livejournal.com profile] honeynoir, who read it over when I was too chicken and unsure to do anything with it at all, and was more amazing and supportive than I can possibly express.
Set right after The God Complex, named after a line from the song Losing Touch by The Killers. I don't own anything. Enjoy, hopefully!

Author's note: It begins with an end, it seems. My first fic for my Doctor Who WIP, and the towers of Darillium. Sadness. Title comes from the song by The Killers, some parts are unsettlingly fitting…
