Summary
River looked up at Jack indignantly. “He has not got my knickers in a twist thank you,” she retorted, “He’s just another arrogant, badly-dressed, smart-mouthed, Oxford academic know-it-all who’s not half as clever as he thinks he is. He seems to have a dislike for archaeology and I’ve had the misfortune to run into him twice in twenty-four hours.”
“Hmm,” Jack raised an eyebrow at her with a knowing smirk, “Well, that doesn’t sound at all like your type does it?!”Series

Summary
A look into the darker sides of The Doctor and River and how they keep eachother from falling into that black hole of guilt over the things they've done to protect each other.
Inspired by the song Mercy by JJ Wilde. You should listen while reading or before. That's the vibe I was going for.

Summary
A tall, slender man steps into the room. He wears his shirt sleeves rolled up to his elbows, his waistcoat unbuttoned, and round-framed glasses on the end of his nose. In one hand, he cradles an open book. His brown hair droops boyishly into his eyes. He spots her instantly and stops in the doorway, utterly still as he blinks at her.
River stares back, speechless. He’s young. She takes in the dark eyes and wary frown. Too young. Which means…
“Who the hell are you?” He asks, snapping the book shut. “And why are you tied to my bed?”

Summary
From the stories she has heard about the Doctor since she was a little girl, he’s a hard and ruthless man. He knows nothing of love or kindness. He’s a killer – heartless and cold. River doubts a shivering woman on a miserable night will do much to change that, but it isn’t her job to question Kovarian, only to do what she’s told.

Summary
Scrolling through the monitor, he realises that Melody was right. As far as this universe is concerned, he died in Berlin. There's no mention of Lake Silencio or anything else he had done since then.
The Doctor, in this universe, no longer exists.
Which means… swallowing heavily, he pulls the keyboard back towards him and this time types in ‘River Song’…
'No results'

and she lets the river answer that you've always been her lover by hihoplastic

Summary
It’s not unusual to be propositioned by the resort guests. It happens at least once a week, much to his chagrin—always with a drunken smirk and a well-placed tip, like he can be bought for an extra few pounds. But there’s something different in the way she’s asking, the teasing lilt to her voice—like she knows, like she’s mocking them, not him, and while he has very little doubt she would and could eat him alive if so inclined, there’s something else. Something deeper. He’s been here a year, and become an expert in recognising sadness and shame—it rolls off people here in waves. Bad business decisions, complicated affairs—but it’s different, with her. Darker. There’s a caution in the way she moves, an edge to her voice that he’s never heard before, and it makes him curious. Draws him in.
He intends to say no. Intends to turn her down flat and go back to his business and forget all about the strange encounter, but instead what he blurts out is, “I don’t even know your name.”
Her expression softens, like it’s one of the most heartfelt things anyone’s ever asked her. Moving back toward the bar, she holds out a hand. “River,” she says. “River Song.”
Without thinking, he shakes her hand.

Summary
River arches an eyebrow and waits, letting him dance around the console aimlessly. He’s fidgety, more so than usual, and she can guess the reason why. Finally he sighs and leans across her, pressing the button on the answer phone. A smooth, familiar voice filters through, and River’s eyes widen. “Is that Martha Jones?”

Summary
Because not every moment with the Doctor is visiting a new planet, fighting for your life or saving the world. Sometimes it's just the two of them doing things far more important. These things you can't even write, you have to just live them.

Summary
Looking back, it was hard for the Doctor to say exactly when he’d stopped running. The grief and resentment he’d been nursing since their first meeting had given way, little by little, to a terrifying thrill in the pit of his stomach. It was that magnetic pull; the undeniable certainty that he was colliding with his future each time he crossed paths with River Song.
