randomly generated fic rec
Feb. 24th, 2010 11:41 pmI'm in the mood for another randomly generated fic rec, and this time I'm doing something a little different -- instead of a single fic, I've decided to rec two drabbles. They're by different authors but they go together well, hitting the same tone and using the same two characters.

First, header information that applies to both drabbles:
Randomly generated character: Grace Holloway
Characters: Grace Holloway, the Eighth Doctor
Rating: All ages
Spoilers: The TV Movie
Length: 100 words
And now, the individual links and story summaries:
Fic #1: So THAT'S Where He Got Them!
Author: RTF
Author's summary:Because you've been wondering since 1996 where they came from.
Fic #2: The Gift
Author: Kittenmommy
Author's summary:Grace gives the Doctor a gift that he doesn't really want.
Why the rec: I'm not a huge fan of drabbles, but they have grown on me over time, and these are both examples of how good drabbles can be when they're done correctly. The first is a missing scene that fills in a small little hole from the TV Movie; the second could be a missing scene that plays off of the TV Movie's events. Both are clever and smile-inducing.
