Just Can’t Get Enough by Janni (PG)

Fandom: LIFE ON MARS
Pairing: Sam Tyler/Mobile Phone
Length: Short, 800 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] jantalaimon
Author Website: Janni at The Collators’ Den
Why this must be read:

Now what can one say about [livejournal.com profile] jantalaimon? In my self-imposed quest to bring you some of the stranger sides of the Life on Mars fandom, Janni stands in a class of her own. Her fic is generally filled with quirky humour, black comedy and unsettling twists in the tale. She also has a knack for taking accepted fandom tropes and pushing them as far as she can to incredible comedic effect and / or brain breakage.

Here she takes the fact that Sam loves his mobile phone and turns it in to ‘Sam loves his mobile phone’. Throw in a little of the timey wimey wibbley wobbley principle that Life on Mars is based on and you have a classic love story across time, space and possibly sanity as well.

Hmmm....last time I checked roll call, you and Janni were in the same class. Fi was playing hooker hooky that day, I believe. *eyes the lot of you suspiciously*

And YAY this rec, it is so wonderful. Thanks for reccing these gems I have not read in far too long. ♥
