Fic: UNIT: Lonely House

[thisbluespirit]

Title UNIT: Lonely House
Author: lost_spook
Rating: Teen (for very occasional language & some angst in future chapters).
Characters: Colonel Crichton, Liz Shaw, Original Characters

Summary:
November 1985: There’s alien slime and tea and explosions, but that’s just UNIT. Now Colonel Crichton’s trying to wage a war with words instead of guns, Torchwood want their ghost back and sometimes it takes more than winning to save a life. (But after that, they’ll be right back to tea and explosions and people turning green and saving the world.)



This is the fic I was talking about. jjpor and primsong both asked the fatal 'what happened next?' question, or something vaguely along those lines enough to encourage me to drag out my many sheets of scribbled-on A4 paper and try and make something that would stand up.

So bear with me, to make it work, I am playing games of a sort. And considering that this is already low on actual Who characters, I'm really pushing my luck this time.

But keep with it till I get to Part Two...)

In celebration of your new fic, I have finished your old one! Heee, I loved it. Things did get quite nasty towards the end there didn't they, and the running from the bomb countdown was all very Spooks. And I loved Tilly and Dr Webber! Could I beg their appearance in some sort of future fic as The Other Doctor and His Spirited Companion?

Also, Sarah Jane and K9 were great. “So it’s only me that wants to run up and down the grounds having a good old panic?” asked Sarah, making a face. - No, that would be me too. And K9 upon being kicked: “Apologies are unnecessary, Dr Webber. Do not repeat the action.” - Ha! There can never be too many robotic dog jokes.

Anyway, thanks for the great read, and best of luck with this new one, which I'll probably finish reading in a year or so.

Great stuff so far - I've said it in the reviews, but it bears repeating - poor Tilly! You really convey her dislocation and awkwardness in her new life, but also her indomitable spirit. And poor Nat! Can't wait for the Colonel to unleash hell on Torchwood for their thuggish shenanigans (well, unleashing hell might be a bit strong, but I bet he'll give them a good talking too!).
