    Summary

    Janet raced from her father's hall out onto the grounds of Carterhaugh, seeking the rose and the woman who had given her the child now in her womb. The child weighed heavily inside her, although the babe was no bigger than any other before birth. She clutched at her rounded belly, her breaths coming too fast as her feet carried her far more quickly than she should move in this state.

    Summary

    She had ruled for a long, long time, as mortals counted such things, and did not think Tam Lin would escape, no matter how many maidens he had seduced. Human women with the will to stand against Faerie were vanishingly rare.

    Summary

    Chrissy's world was imploding. Although there was food in the house, it wasn’t food meant for Chrissy. And though she had a whole closet full of clothes, they weren’t her clothes, her choices. The house was a prison, her picture-perfect life a lie. Her boyfriend domineering and misogynistic.

    That was where Eddie Munson came in.

    What started out as a drug deal rapidly transformed into True Love - the stuff of legends - and if Chrissy thought she had troubles before she met Eddie, she had another thing coming:

    Namely, an unplanned pregnancy, and the revelation of a dark family secret that would have the power to change Chrissy's life forever.

    Summary

    Lucy has been warned not to go to the sacred lake by herself. When she plucks up a wild rose, a wild man enchanted by the writerly and capricious fae queen makes himself known and levies her with a penalty that intrigues and frightens her.

    But if she's to give this strange man her virginity, Lucy wants to know more about him. Along the way, a bargain turns into so much more than lust, giving her the opportunity to break the spell binding him to the woods -- and George to return to the life he shed when he was a little boy.

    Summary

    This is a crossover between Doctor Who and “Tam Lin,” the ancient ballad from the Scottish Borders. It also uses plot elements from The Perilous Gard by Elizabeth Marie Pope (1974) and the movie The Wicker Man (1973). If you’re familiar with these or any similar stories about the tithe, this may be easy to predict, but I enjoyed writing it.
    This is set in Season 2 of the reboot, at Halloween, somewhere between “Rise of the Cybermen” and “Doomsday.”

    When I got this idea recently, I thought it wasn’t worth writing because this exact fic must exist many times over on AO3. I found only 4 results on AO3 for “Tam Lin” and “Doctor Who." And none involve the Tenth Doctor or Rose. I’m surprised because it maps onto the characters and themes so well.

    Edit 01/23/24: Thank you to AO3 user Fennelwink for pointing out a dropped thread/plot hole. I edited it slightly now near the end of Chapter 1 to address that. This was originally published here on 09/30/22 and 10/14/22.
