Song of Darillium by TennantsLittleKitten reviews
"The Doctor watched Clara leave before returning his focus to the blue book. He gently turned the pages scanning its contents. Near the end he spotted the title: 'Darillium'. The Doctor's hearts sank and a knot formed within his throat. He gently nudged the frame of his glasses up the bridge of his nose and swallowed deeply to prepare for the journey ahead."

Time Tots by gingerbritishgypsyelf reviews
A fic following the relationship of the Doctor and River Song, during that short time when their time lines matched up. Rated T for possibly adult situations in later chapters. SLIGHTLY AU as of 'A Good Man Goes to War,' but not too much.

Something Blue reviews
River is on the command ship by the time she comes around. There are bars in the place where a wall should be and for a moment she thinks she might be back in Stormcage when she remembers she hasn't been a prisoner there for decades. The room is quite similar, however; empty and cold save for the lumpy mattress she's laying on.

a lesson in flying and parenting reviews
"All that but she parked the TARDIS twenty feet underwater," the Doctor said under his breath. River heard him and glared. "Piloting is a learned skill, sweetie, and she's doing brilliantly so far." She emphasized the point with a kiss to Clara's cheek to which the girl giggled. "Now get some dry clothes on, will you? We have an adventure to go on." PART 5 takes place before SISTER

it just means time
"Look there," she said so motionlessly that he thought maybe the words had come from the wind and not her throat. She didn't point or even gesture with her head, her arms steady around the sling that held Lia. "By the other gate." PART FOUR- takes place after "sister"

destined to stand in the ruins reviews
"Ioch'ba..." River's voice came breathless and weakened from behind his palm. "I thought I told you to call me Io." It helped the man to pretend shit wasn't hitting the fan when she didn't call him by his full nameā€”not that it isn't obvious from the fact that she was currently trying to navigate the most guarded city on Gallifrey in late stages of labor.

Continued from my fic "Clara". Last time I was experimenting with minimal dialogue. Now I'm seeing how lots of dialogue works out. Not Beta'd, let me know if there are mistakes.

When Skies are Gray reviews
The Doctor leans towards his wife and presses a kiss to her temple. Words, he knows, are not worth trying to figure out now. Despite being his best weapon, he finds that they are very much not useful in situations like this; moments where there's nothing the words will change. Twenty four years of peace and he's never needed to use his weapon within these four walls. Never with her

unexpected are so often the best things in life reviews
She didn't enjoy thinking about it much, but all of that genetic engineering and in-vitro procedures that had been done to her, well, it wasn't just Gallifreyan DNA they used to make her a weapon. She's not completely sure what else was used, but as result, she was a bit of a biological wonder- in the sense that she was practically impossible. (This is why she disliked hospitals.)

Clara reviews
How River and Twelve's first child on Darillium comes to be. "For River, the knowing is a welcomed relief. She doesn't have any reason to think of her messy past. All the burdens of her life are gone here and it's just the constant of him (something she couldn't have given his younger self credit for)"

They fight together against old and new enemies, and even against nature, to protect each other, their children, and at points their relationship. (Trigger warnings: still birth, torture, drowning.)

River song Fication. Promt: River is pregnant and called the Doctor for help. Twelve arrives there, only to find that his not-dead-wife is in labor in the middle of a battlefield. BONUS: Sonic glasses and electric guitar to the rescue! "He could never sleep if it was too quiet. He needed something: The hum of the TARDIS, River's breathing, a baby crying. No, that's not right."

Not Now reviews
It strikes him like a blow to the chest. The Doctor doesn't even know what triggered the thought or how he's figured it out. All he has been doing was thinking about his wife, his very pregnant wife, when it clicks. He remembers, when he hadn't know her, that she was lying. Lying about her pain, lying about what was under that perception filter.

The Good Kind of Supprise reviews
River and the Doctor have a baby! From the night of conception, ultrasounds, the birth, and how they deal with new parenthood. Yes, the birth is pretty graphic so rated T for to be safe, but it annoys me when people just skip the birth or don't know what they are writing. First story, be nice. It gets better as you read, I promise. BTW : I don't own any of BBC or doctor who. Enjoy.
