    Summary

    // Content Warning: there is an attempted rape in this and it is one of the major plot points to bring the rapist to justice and dealing with the aftermath.

     

    So let me take you down to the dancing floor
    You can walk out on the crowd
    Let us waltz away what′s left of the living years
    In celebration of the love
    It′s all glitz and sparkle down on the dancing floor
    We can turn our lives around
    Just leave behind that wretch that you have been
    With the fool that I'd become

     

    Runrig, "The Dancing Floor"

     

    Lix and Randall have settled into an everyday routine at The Hour. Together in their working lives, but separated in their grief and their loneliness.
    Until things change.

    Summary

    Clara Oswald leaves behind teaching to enter the world of British politics. What better way to make a splash than by working for the infamous Malcolm Tucker?

    And if discovering a (mutual) attraction happens to catch them both off-guard.... well, that's just life, right?

    Clara x Malcolm AU, sexual tension, humor, and lots of F-bombs. Set in The Thick of It, series 3-ish (timeline liberties will be taken)

    Summary

    Modern Day Field of Blood/Doctor Who AU
    Pete Mclltchie/Clara Oswald
    Pete doesn't die in this universe

    Clara Oswald is a famous young actress who visits Glasgow and gives an interview to Daily News with one Peter Mclltchie. She chose him to give her interview to because he was the only one who treated her with respect in that newspaper office. She also finds him funny and pleasant to be around. She doesn't care that he is twice her age or has grey hair. She didn't even really care that he was an alcoholic and smoked because he was a decent man. Over the next few years she flies back and forth to Glasgow when she was free to see him. Pete on the other hand is totally smitten with this beautiful young woman that has taken a shine to him. He knows he'll never be more that a friend or fling to her but he wished he could be her husband. He knew he was to far below her on the social scale because he was poor so he just enjoyed the time he was allowed to have with her. That is of course all a matter of opinion. Clara has a different opinion.
