selenakBattlestar Galactica:
Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies: a terrific story set during the occupation arc in early s3. The Doral and Simon models were the ones we found out least about during the show; here, a Doral is the point of view character, and it works amazingly well, as he talks to Gaius Baltar (and btw, this is one of the best takes on Baltar I've ever read). No spoilers beyond the New Caprica arc, the atmosphere of which this story captures wonderfully well.
Doctor Who:
You can't teach an old time lord new tricks: after Journey's End, the Tenth Doctor visits UNIT just after the point where Four and Sarah Jane had left it. Stories which use both Old and New Who characters with equal affection invariably make me happy, and this one so does: the Brig, Yates, Benton, Jo, Liz Shaw, and finally Harry Sullivan all are at their best, and there are two neat Torchwood tie-ins as well.
The Sarah Connor Chronicles:
A Tatto On Her Wrist: a Riley portrait in a very original format, a fanmix where with each of the songs comes a drabble, portraying Riley, her relationship with Jesse and her lostness in present and future. Very well done.
