She Dreams the Butterfly by Doyle (PG)
Fandom: DOCTOR WHO
Pairing: gen; Zoe Heriot, the Tenth Doctor
Author on LJ:
doyle_sb4
Author Website: LJ memories, all fandoms
Why this must be read: This fantastic story came from the recent (and wonderful) Second Doctor Ficathon. Zoe is one of my favourite characters, and while there's quite a bit of post-War Games Jamie fic, Zoe's life upon being memory-wiped by the Time Lords is rarely examined. This makes up the gap gorgeously, being extremely sharp and feeling just right in terms of canon-compliance and characterization for everyone involved. It's beautiful and hard and rough and sad, and not just for Zoe, but for the Tenth Doctor, who shows up but can't save the day, because it doesn't work that way, anymore. This fic was a punch in the gut, and at the same time works to remind me why I love fanfic so much, sometimes.
