Many apologies for completely blanking on the new monthly theme! And, equally, many thanks to [personal profile] quailfence for pointing it out to me. Otherwise, I might not have noticed till May, I was that convinced I'd done it already! /o\ (I blame the Seasonal Challenge coming so close to the end of the month... lol) Anyway, for what remains of the month, here is our theme:


The Master // Humour


For April, bring out your most Masterly recs, or those that make you laugh. Or, as ever, both! (Let's face it; the Master is an expert in Ridiculous Plans!)

Post your recs to the community in the normal way any time from now until midnight on 30th April 2022 in your timezone. (See Info & Guidelines for posting template and instructions). Recs posted for monthly themes have their own tag with banners at the end of the year for reccers who posted something for at least six out of the twelve themes over the year.

When making your post, add the tag "other: monthly theme". (The mods will take care of any other needed tags, as usual, but which challenge/theme a rec is for could easily be missed.)


Our current Seasonal Challenge is Claim A Character, which is still open until 22nd June 2022 for claims and posting!


Request List
Anyone may also request any specific recs they'd like to see. (e.g. "Fourth Doctor fic, not on Teaspoon," "Cheerful Bill Potts artwork," "Leela vid," "recent Ten/Rose," etc.) If you are only interested in one medium (fic/vid/art etc/), don't forget to specify.

Current requests:
* Classic Who fanvids, any Doctor/TARDIS team (music, no/minimal audio quotes preferred), especially out there on tumblr/YT - [personal profile] thisbluespirit
* Twelfth Doctor h/c that's not on AO3 (any pairing or gen) - [personal profile] ruuger
* Rose/Nine fic, any genre, anywhere - anon
* Jack/Esther fic (Torchwood) - [personal profile] chamilet
* Babyfic and/or de-age fic, any era/any team - [personal profile] romanajo123


Make your requests in the comments here to be added to the list. (Anon commenting is on.) If you make a rec that fills any of these requests, please add the "other: request" tag to your entry so it can be found easily.)


Any other questions? Ask here or at the Info & Guidelines post, or PM the mod.

Title: Two Can Play At That Game
Creator: HiNerdsItsCat ([archiveofourown.org profile] HiLarpItsCat)
Rating: General Audiences
Word Count/Length/Size: 52,886 words
Creator's Summary: The offer was accepted and the arrangement was made: to save her friends from the Cybermen, the Thirteenth Doctor agreed to ten trips with the Master in his TARDIS—but before they could depart, the Doctor threw in an additional complication:

“If you’re hearing this, it means that you just realised you couldn’t open the locket. You shouldn’t leave things like Chameleon Arches lying about like that, you know. People can get up to all sorts of mischief if left alone with one. So here’s my end of the deal: the locket will open after ten trips in the TARDIS. Until then, you’re stuck with your new human companion, Jenny Smith. I’ll still be travelling with you… I just won’t have to be there for it.”

—which is when the Master added in a complication of his own:

“If you want to run from your problems and hide inside a little human costume… fine. Two can play at that game.”

Meanwhile in Bristol, the Twelfth Doctor’s decades-long routine of eccentric lecturing and vault guarding is about to be upended by the two most disruptive students St. Luke’s University has ever had: the perpetually bickering Jenny Smith and Harry Jones.
Characters: Fobwatched Thirteenth Doctor, Twelfth Doctor, Fobwatched The Master (Dhawan), Missy (Doctor Who)
Pairings: Thirteenth Doctor/The Master (Dhawan)m Twelfth Doctor/Missy, Thirteenth Doctor & Twelfth Doctor, Twelfth Doctor & The Master (Dhawan), The Master (Dhawan) & Missy, Thirteenth Doctor & Missy
Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: In addition to being my second entry for the seasonal challenge, I’m also counting it towards both parts of the monthly theme - in addition to have big not one but two Masters, there’s a ton of humor in this one! Jenny and Harry’s antics are extremely funny, and the author does an excellent job at rewriting series 10 episodes - unlike many authors who try and rewrite the whole story, Cat only writes the parts that have major changes in them due to Twelve’s companions being Jenny and Harry instead of Bill. The result is that the episode rewrites fell fresh and interesting. It’s not all fluff and roses though - there’s a decent amount and angst, especially at the end. Cat’s also writing a series of sequels and side-stories to this one, so if you finish this one and fins yourself wanting more, you can also read those.
