I\'m in my late twenties/early thirties, I\'m female, I used to work in publishing (where I made the books and, more importantly, the tea) and now work for the Civil Service (where I help make websites and have to bring my own tea), I like tea, I like new Who, classic Who, Big Finish and Doctor/Master. My Doctor is Eight, except when he\'s Five (or Six, or Four)(and maybe Eleven).
Reviews make me happy, as does tea (see above), and Big Finish fic.
Anyone who wishes to make a podfic, translation or other artistic offshoot of my fic is quite welcome to do so.

Another Time (five ways in which Jack failed to cause a paradox) by aralias [Reviews - 2]
Written for tardis_gen, for the prompt: We know from Torchwood series two that Jack has been working at Torchwood 3 for some time, ten years at least.

Series: None
Crazy For You (The Butterfly Room Remix) by aralias [Reviews - 0]
It had been a brilliant plan, a complicated and extremely devious plan. It had been the type of plan he might well have thought better of if he'd had time to form a personality distinct from that of his predecessor, but he hadn’t.

In Scream of the Shalka, REG!Doctor (the ninth Doctor who almost was) was seen travelling round the universe with a robotic Master for no apparent reason.

The Meaning of Forgiveness by aralias [Reviews - 2]
The Master is different. He has had more chances that anybody else will ever be given, but still the Doctor forgives him. Completely. It’s partly because forgiving those who don’t deserve it is what he does, and partly because he assumed that without his forgiveness the Master would never get better. And he needs the Master to get better. It occurs to him now, for the first time, that the perhaps the Master doesn’t need his forgiveness. And that, perhaps, he actually deserves to be forgiven.
