Whatever It Is You’ve Got by tenderly_wicked

Summary
River Cartwright, being the loser he is, really gets the colors wrong during the training exercise. Given that Spider tried to trick him on Taverner’s command, it means he actually gets them right (white shirt, blue tee). So he catches the right guy, to Taverner’s dismay: now she doesn’t have an excuse to get rid of him. Her plan is temporarily delayed—and River becomes one of the Dogs, at Duffy’s disposal.
River (again, being the loser he is) is totally oblivious of this. He doesn’t understand why his friend Spider acts somewhat awkwardly around him. And absolutely ignores all the red flags from Duffy and Hobbs.

Summary
When Catherine finally arrives home after her abduction, River is waiting for her, bone-tired and wretched—to check whether she’s really fine, first and foremost, but also to make an unpleasant confession. She’ll hate him after that, won’t she? But he’ll tell her anyway. She has the right to know.

Summary
The Doctor can finally have a peaceful, happy life … except of course he won’t be able to stay away and leave the Master in UNIT’s clutches for long, even if it only bodes trouble. When he finds the way to reverse the Master’s transformation, he’ll get the version of his arch-friend he’s been least expecting.
As for the Master, he’ll have a hard time figuring out what the Doctor might want in return for his help. There must be something, right? There’s always a catch.

Summary
The Metatron doesn’t want even a small nuisance to mess with his plans. It’s better to erase the wayward demon Crowley from the Book of Life—preventively, so to speak. The problem is, such kind of censorship requires scratching out every mention of a certain name from a very long narrative. If you ever edited a text, especially a huge one, you know how it is: inevitably, you’re going to miss something.
In his life, Crowley has adapted so many personas that one of them slips from the Metatron’s attention—Anthony J. Crowley, currently homeless, suffering from PTSD, and heartbroken for a reason he doesn’t know because of memory loss. Discarded by Heaven, forgotten by Hell… How will our hero cope?
