Summary: He doesn't know where he is, who he is, or who he ever has been. All he does know is the breeze of the wind flowing in the trees, the absence of all feeling below the waist, and a woman with hair as bright as the sun.

Title: Explosions in the Sky
Author: redknightalex
Rating: PG
Warnings: Character Death
Pairing/Characters: Ed Gold, Adelaide Brooke
Setting: Series 4 Specials - “The Waters of Mars”
Genre: Character Introspection
Word Count: 1,330
Disclaimer: Own nothing, once again, I'm just playing around with characters I felt were worthy of a bit more study than what the BBC had decided upon.
Summary: Ed Gold had always been fiercely loyal to his captain, the one who had chosen him to explore the stars with. But then one day came, an explosion in Cargo Bay 13, that changed their relationship forever, and he would never forgive himself for letting it happen. Nor would she.

Author's Note: I've always wondered how the relationship between Ed Gold and Adelaide Brooke developed into the one on-screen and, to be honest, I doubt it had anything to do with a romantic fling. That would be too simple for a woman like Adelaide and too low for a man like Ed. Something else must have happened. This was what my brain came up with during a massive heat wave where I live. Commentary will probably be coming at some point as a bunch of the details had to be gleamed off of the TARDIS wiki, which had much more detailed information regarding the Internet posts in the episode than I could gather.

Author: redknightalex
Fandom: Doctor Who
Rating: PG-13 (see warnings)
Pairing/Characters: Adelaide Brooke, the Doctor, crew of Bowie Base 1
Word Count: 650
Setting: “Waters of Mars” only
Warnings: Suicide. It's obvious from the end of the episode but thought I'd give you another heads-up anyway.
Disclaimer: If only I were this brilliant...this all belongs to the BBC and TPTB.
Summary: Adelaide Brooke was always in control of her fate and, even if it faltered for a minute, she still made her last choice.

Author's Notes: Something quick I wrote down after rewatching the episode. No beta so all mistakes are of my own making.

Title: Three Words
Author: redknightalex
Fandom: Doctor Who, Torchwood
Rating: G
Pairing/Characters: Jack/Ianto, Tenth Doctor
Warnings: Mentioned canon character death
Spoilers: Torchwood's "Children of Earth" and Doctor Who's "End of Time Part 2".
Genre: Character Introspection, Pseudo Fix-It
Word Count: 100
Disclaimer: It all belongs to the BBC, RTD, and others, not me. I gain no monetary value from this.
Summary: As a prompt response from thebuttonontop for Jack/Ianto and maybe some Ten. Basically a missing scene in "End of Time Part 2", right before we see Jack in the bar (although that's the setting).

Author's Notes: Another 100 word long, proper drabble! *is shocked* Did this one quick for thebuttonontop as she needed a little something. I make no apologies for any tears that may or may not happen.
