So, I'm driving the Doctor Who van on ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
crack_van this month, and I'm having a devil of a time narrowing it down to only twelve stories to rec. I thought I had it all figured out, but then I found an awesome new story that I have to rec, and have reluctantly decided that this means, in the interests of variety, that I can only rec one of the two River Song stories I was planning to rec. (Alas.)
The two stories are:
Children of Time by![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
iamshadow , in which a linear story is told from River's point of view about her growing up and first meeting the Doctor, but it's mostly about her and growing up and her older brother (who, by a startling coincidence is Jack Harkness).
Not One Line by rickmaniack101, in which a linear story is told from the Doctor's (but not River's) POV in which all his subsequent meetings with her (and falling in love, and marrying her) are chronicled in the order he experienced them.
Both stories are wonderfully written, tug at the heart strings (thought for different reasons), and favorites of mine.
