psubrat: (doctor - ten - rose - tardis)

With all the "spare" time I have, I've made it a personal policy to not get involved in reading long fics. Until today. I've been sucked in, and I mean that in the most literal and figurative sense.

Now I must pimp said fic. It's a Doctor Who/Blackpool crossover that is very well written:

The Way of Things by [livejournal.com profile] jlrpuck

It's a story set post "Doomsday" in the alternate universe where Rose was trapped when she and the Tenth Doctor opened the void - it's usually referred to as "Pete's world". Here's the summary...

It's been over three years since Rose and the Doctor said goodbye. What happens when she not only meets his doppelganger, but has to work with him?


So, uhm, yeah...guess what I've been doing today?

I just started it today. There's more story in the comments??? Oh noes! Now I'm gonna have to go back through the first seven chapters and read the comments. Damn.

The people commenting ask questions and jlrpuck answers so there is back-story and explanations! It's really a ton of fun. I go back throughout the day to read the comments after each chapter.

I should say that if you don't read the comments you won't actually miss any story just 'extras' like the DW Commentary's. She's working on a section of the story right now that takes place inside the original The Way of Things. If you go to her section called The Order of Things the entire timeline is plotted.

I finished "The Way of Things" yesterday, along with all of the ficlets leading up to the sequel. OMG! What an awesome story. I'm so glad I decided to give it a go. It's been a very long time since I read a long fic, let alone one that was written so damn well. I can't wait to read the next one! YAY!
