Claim: Doctor Who, general series
Title: Twenty-Eight Hours and Seventeen Minutes
Author: livii
Characters: Jack Harkness, Shareen Costello
Prompt: 42 - Holiday
Rating: PG-13
Length: Long
Brief summary: Shareen has been mentioned onscreen more than once, but never seen, making her pretty much a blank slate for fic writers; livii uses that blank slate to great effect, developing Shareen into a fascinating character in her own right. Shareen's past as Rose's best mate is woven effortlessly into her present as Jack's traveling companion and partner in crime. Jack is just the right mix of sleaze and charm, and their partnership is like a dark mirror to the Doctor and Rose.

Title: All This Season of Snow and Sins
Author: cherryice
Characters: Jack Harkness, Romana II
Prompt: 26 - Death
Rating: PG-13
Length: Long
Brief summary: There need to be more Jack/Romana stories if they're all as good as this. It's a natural extrapolation of a post-Time War Romana and a pre-missing memories Jack, and they keep throwing each other off. The body count is high and much of the death is attributed to Romana's blame, but the ending is lovely and hopeful, full of possibilities.
