Redrew my sonas ref 💗 ( they/them )

After reading exclusively Ten/Rose fan fiction for at least 3 hours a day every day for the past 6 months I blinked and suddenly I’d accidentally saved about 11 pages of links and I have a burning desire to share my collection look at this stuff isn’t it NEAT

I could not be more sure that this list slaps. I’m objectively right. I reread all of these fics to make SURE the ones I’m recommending are 🔥 so don’t fight me on this

Part 1 of likely many can’t stop won’t stop

Disclaimer: Most of these contain smut. You have been warned.

Minuet - @megabadbunny (43k words)

This is honestly in my top 3 favourite fics I’ve ever read in my goddamn life. A good old-fashioned GitF fixit, but where Rose is the hero. Mickey is so fucking funny in this and it is HARD to successfully write funny fanfiction so get this author on the NYT best sellers list - and BEST OF ALL it has ANGRY SEX?! Why don’t all GitF fixits have angry sex 😤

All That Stuff We’re So Scared Of - @abadplanwellexecuted (14k words)

I had this saved with just this as the description “👏👏👏👏👏”. They’re drunk and it’s cute and it’s juvenile and it’s clumsy but it feels REAL. The characterizations? Accurate. The plot? Fluff. Hotel? Trivago.

She and Him Were - PellNell (5k words)

When Donna asked the question we ALL wanted the answer to: “Were you and him…?”

This fic recaps the one time they were. Even though I don’t think Ten/Rose canonically fucked, *IF* they ever did, it 100% would’ve happened like this.

Rush - the_tenzo (3k words)

I see this on most fic rec lists and let me tell you it’s for a damn good reason. I share this fic with anyone who will listen and I’ve read it more times than I can count. It’s so teenagers watching tv on the couch at their parents house sharing a blanket coded. Shameless PWP.

Laconic - @loupettes (3k words)

Loup is one of my favorite writers because she just GETS the characters, and she writes them with depth and humor and human dialogue. It’s nigh impossible to choose only one fic, but this one has angry KISSING and I’m down bad for it (someone get me on a mental health plan Jesus Christ)

Resolutions in Satin - @thirdeyeblue (23k words)

Katie is another one of my favourite writers, do yourself a solid and just read everything she’s ever written and thank me later (there’s no way she’s not writing smut exclusively for the girls). I don’t know what it is about TenToo that doesn’t quite scratch the insatiable Ten/Rose itch RTD left me with BUT Katie is just that fucking good.

We Both Go Down Together - JennyLD (4.4k words)

This fic feeds my (probably somewhat delusional) notion that TenToo is a bit off, but as mentioned earlier ANGRY👏SEX👏IS👏ELITE (and this is why 2 therapists have ghosted me)

Missing Scenes - @theladysiubhan (17k words)

Another one (we the best music) of my favourite writers and I have so many more of hers that I’ll recommend in my next list. As I continued to read this series I was genuinely sad that I was getting closer to the end, and if that isn’t the sign of a good fic then idk what to tell you

Abandoned - Sinecure (2.5k words)

I saved this fic because I’ve never read anything like it…it’s like they’re actively trying to fuck the pain away? This is the most compelling argument for government subsidized CBT I’ve ever read.

Cold December Night - @tenscupcake (5.5k words)

The Doctor and Rose go ice-skating after The Christmas Invasion and if ONLY we got to experience this level of romance on the show I fear my expectations for men would be higher than the genocidal alien with boss level commitment issues I was provided with, but then alas my psych wouldn’t be able to afford a yacht.
