ncruukβs Kate/Osgood fics - a readerβs guide
Kate Stewart, divorced mother of two, keen gardener and exceptional bridge player.
And in love with Osgood, has been for years....
At the moment Iβve writtenΒ 23 28 stories that involve them, stories that all interweave and build off each other to fill out the missing pieces in their lives that we havenβt seen on the shows (and try to make sense of some of the more confusing things we have seen). Β They can all be found here, at A03.Β Reading them in chronological order of posting will take you on a winding path forwards and back in their relationship (itβs Dr Who after all, must have a bit of timey-wimey). [Itβs also the way things make the most sense if youβre trying the stories for the first time, as the UNIT-verse Iβve created builds up.]
If youβd prefer to read them in the order that the characters live through the adventures and emotions,Β try the order as listed below. However, this does come with a warning that you might not know who everyone is immediately as characters areΒ βintroducedβ based on the order that I wrote the stories.Β
Either way, however you decide to read them, I hope you enjoy!
Cheese Sandwich
Knot Horticulture for the Advanced Gardener
No. 8s on Christmas Eve
Present? Check, Mate and Greenhouse
A New Year...and McGillop drank (most of) his beer
Every Relationship Needs a Handkerchief Β
Bruising, Diplomacy and the Wrong sort of Tuba
Science Leads With or Without Eggs
What to follow Cheese Sandwiches with can only be found in Chelsea
Greyhounds and Ravens [WIP - also involves the Janet King (ABC show) cast - please donβt be put off having a read if you donβt know the show as it can be read with original (Australian) characters] Does help if you readΒ ThirteenΒ about the same time/just before
Blue is a Complicated Colour if you're a Greyhound, especially at the weekend
The Science of Space LawΒ [WIP]
Code Word Classified: GallifreyΒ is my on-going story that sees UNIT and the Paternoster Gang turn up at Stargate Command (Stargate SG1) to participate in something highly secret and vital. Β Chronologically it fits in after βBlue is a Complicated Colour...β. [Also involves Sam Carter/Janet Fraiser from SG1 and Madame Vastra/Jenny from Dr Who in terms ofΒ βshipsβ].Β
My other Kate/Osgood stories can be read at any point in the chronology so long as youβve already read βCheese Sandwichβ. Β These are:
Never Underestimate an Osgood
Absent Protocol, Paradise Awaits
Pride in the DetailΒ [technically set in the month of June]
Roadworks Just Past Neptune, Delays ExpectedΒ [technically set late March/early April]
Greyhounds and Question Marks
Thirteen
Curious Cake, and its sequel Diplomatic Cake
Osgoodβs Gambit
Home Work
Your Kind of TraitorΒ [with guest appearances from Killing Eve]
Diamonds for Dinner
TheΒ βSave and Sacrificeβ SeriesΒ is a three part series that focuses on βGreyhound Oneβ and so isΒ βship-freeβ (there is no OsgoodΒ βon screenβ and no mention of their relationship).
Fifteen Words will Save, and SacrificeΒ
A Lone Sentry on Watch
While the World Keeps Turning
