Family Documents: in which the Doctor, Sarah Jane and Luke discover they're related. Sort of. Absolutely adorable.
Doctor Who/Torchwood:
Persistence of Memory: in which Martha Jones meets the Torchwood team twice over, courtesy of the year that wasn't. Haunting and beautiful, and a great character exploration both of Martha and the Torchwoodians.
Dead Like Me/ Buffy the Vampire Slayer:
Reaping the Whirlwind: in which Dawn Summers becomes a Reaper. Written from George's pov, this lengthy, plotty story is awesome to read, especially if you're a fan of Bryan Fuller's show (which I personally prefered to his later Pushing Daisies - I like some acid in my supernatural cuteness); the BTVS characters who show up, mainly Dawn, Xander and Buffy, are all perfectly realized as well.
Harry Potter:
Cast a long shadow: I love stories which flesh out Petunia Dursley and her relationship with Lily, and this one accomplishes both beautifully. It also offers bonus!Snape at the edges, and leads us from Petunia's and Lily's childhood to post-Deathly Hallows territory.
...and now I'll go back to stop myself looking for feedback for my own story by reciting mantras along the lines of "remember, old fandom, unpopular pairing, you didn't expect anything anyway"....
