Sorry for the long silence, I seem to have drifted away from this fandom a bit. The author was previously known as Sam Storyteller.

Title: Trying To Communicate
Creator:

Copperbadge
Rating: Teen and Up
Word Count/Length/Size: 1848
Warnings/Notes: None
Summary: There's an alien in the Hub, and it's trying to communicate.
Reasons for reccing: Something I think I recced a long time ago on the LJ version of this community, I've recced it again because the author added another short chapter last year, and because there is now a podfic of the original chapter. A lovely bit of Torchwood fun.

Title: Twenty Things to Do in Cardiff When You're Dead
Creator:

phineyj
Rating: Mature
Word Count/Length/Size: 6,491 words
Creator's Summary: How Owen spends his time these days.
Characters/Pairings: Owen Harper, Gwen Cooper, Jack Harkness, Ianto Jones, Toshiko Sato (Owen/Gwen, Owen/Diane, and Jack/Ianto mentioned)
Warnings/Notes: explicit talk about suicide, some macabre moments

Reasons for reccing: A great Owen-centric fic, dealing with his dead-but-not state of being and all the annoyances and unknowns it brings with it. He’s never really thought of death as a chronic condition before, but chronic just means you can’t get rid of it, doesn’t it? The story captures his POV very well and I really like the "twenty things" structure, giving us twenty different scenes and several small appearances by other characters.

Title: Clueless, or Butt-Crazy In Love
Creator:

blue_fjords
Rating: PG, whatever that translates to in AO3 terms. I'd put it as Teen because there's some mention of sex-related stuff, though nothing even remotely explicit.
Word Count/Length/Size: about 8,600 words (that's what the writer gives it as, so I don't know more precisely)
Creator's Summary: Jack Harkness is your average American high school boy. 100% AU, be mindful of the crack.
Characters/Pairings: Jack Harkness, Ianto Jones, Gwen Cooper, Toshiko Sato, Martha Jones, Rhys Williams, Tommy Brockless, Owen Harper, the Tenth Doctor. Jack/Ianto as the main pairing; side-pairings are many.
Notes: AU/fusion with the 1995 film Clueless.

Reasons for reccing: I nearly forgot that I meant to rec more stuff for the AU theme, especially one of my favourite silly AUs of all time: this hilarious fusion of Torchwood with Clueless that somehow works. Jack is Cher. Because of course he is. Gwen is the bestie, naturally, Toshiko is the clueless newcomer, and Ianto the surprisingly attractive ex-stepbrother. It's funny, adorable, and much more feel-good than Torchwood canon, trust me. This is the one American high school AU I totally recommend!

Link: Here on LiveJournal (I didn't find it on AO3, haven't checked other fanfic sites yet. This is when the Torchwood fandom existed mainly on LJ.)

Title: Five Companions Who Weren't and What Could Have Been
Creator:

Hinn_Raven
Rating: General Audiences
Word Count/Length/Size: 2922 words
Creator's Summary: Five people who almost traveled with the Doctor, and what they could have changed.
Characters/Pairings: The Doctor, Toshiko Sato, Rose Tyler, Jack Harkness, Martha Jones, Sally Sparrow, Astrid Peth, Donna Noble, Larry Nightingale, Rita Afzal, Amelia Pond, Rory Williams, Wilfred Mott, River Song
Warnings/Notes: None

Reasons for reccing: I read this ages ago, and I'm pretty sure that this is the story that gave me the idea for my seasonal challenge attempt for Companions Who Never Were. Also it's a very good story...

Title: Paradise Naan
Creator:

ajhall
Rating: Teen
Word Count/Length/Size: 3945
Creator's Summary: no summary
Characters/Pairings: Jack Harkness, Sybil Ramkin, Ianto Jones, Owen Harper, Death (Discworld), Myfanwy (Torchwood Pterodactyl), Gwen Cooper, DCI Swanson, Toshiko Sato
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: One of several brilliant crossovers by A.J. Hall - in this Discworld crossover Jack Harkness goes looking for some help when Myfanwy is ill and comes back with more than he bargained for.
