Summary
As much as Rose and the newly regenerated Doctor would like to drop their problems and escape, running away is no longer an option. After saying their goodbyes to the prime universe, they finally have a chance to build a life together. But in a world where the legal definition of “personhood” means “human” in a way that neither Rose nor the Metacrisis Doctor fit, building a life is far from easy. As Rose struggles to regain autonomy and heal her strained relationships, the Doctor must cope with a new body, an unfriendly world, and his own demons, all while cut off from his beloved TARDIS. Can they learn to face the world together?

Detail Catalogue_SBTS by SlippingBetweenTheStars (Polyhymnia_62)
Fandom Doctor Who (2005)
25 Jun 2020
Summary
Inspired by @silvermarmoset, I’ve decided to catalogue the details I love in Doctor Who, little shots, props, costumes, and conversations etc. that I geek out over.
Originally posted on Tumblr under the handle SlippingBetweenTheStars, this series collects various meta focused on small details that I like in the DW reboot.
Not all opinions expressed necessarily match the author's current views; many were written in the formative year of 2020 and I've evolved as a person quite a bit since then.
There are a few forthcoming entries that are posted on my tumblr blog, but not here; that's because I need to edit the images and image credits to be compliant with Ao3's ToS and it might take me a while to fix that (this primarily applies to the textile essays).

Summary
One-shot stories focused upon Luke and Vader's relationship and meeting - either as a capture, rescue or similar - and all the fun of father-son angst, whump and bonding, and generally being Skywalkers. Because that's the best bit of any Luke and Vader story.
These are not in any order and generally not connected. These are all one-shots so I've no plans to continue any into longer stories...

Summary
Post-ESB AU - Luke Skywalker is a stubborn slave who won't stop trying to escape... Darth Vader has been hunting for him... Everything changes when Luke finds himself bought by a Dark Lord of the Sith who seems intent on keeping him.
Possible minor trigger warning for slavery related unpleasantness... but this is commercial slavery rather than anything non-con etc...

A Long Anticipated Revenge by illu_Mina

Summary
Luke falls into a trap set by the vengeful Prince Xizor, who has long wanted to punish Darth Vader for his sins against his home planet. Luke isn't quite as easy to capture as Xizor thinks, but Luke's plan is only partially successful and it will be many years before Vader discovers what happened to his son.
“If you think Darth Vader will care what happens to me, you’re deluding yourself. Last time I saw him he tortured my friends and cut off my hand.” Luke's mouth was dry as he spoke and it wasn’t just the heat of the carbonite freezing chamber. He realised that he genuinely didn’t know if Vader would care.
