Livejournal Memories for 'Doctor Who' fic
Warnings: None given - Should I give a non-warning for no actual zombies appearing in this fic?
Why this must be read: Post-"Doomsday," pre-"Journey's End" Alt!Torchwood has a problem with zombies. More specifically, one (suspected) zombie, who was dead when they found him, dead when he was brought to the morgue, got up and walked around, charmed a nurse into bringing him his coat, and--“What the hell’s he doing on the roof?” I literally laughed out loud at this fic's sparkling, snappy dialogue:

“So,” he said, leaning close, “parallel universe.”

“Yep.”

“There another Rose around somewhere?” His grin didn’t just imply something filthy, it added colour illustrations.

“Yes.” She smacked his arm. “She’s got four legs and a wet nose.”

“Interesting...”

Mickey shushed them both and clamped his phone to his ear. “Sorry, what? Right. We’ve got to wait here till Jake gets the cameras,” he reported. “And he says can I ask if your head would grow back if somebody cut it off.”

“Yes. Don’t ask how I know.”


I just wanted to glomp [livejournal.com profile] doyle_sb4 for this story. Also, the use of Rose the Yorkie is made of win.
