Those were lovely recs, thanks! (and yes, I did see Alien, but only the first one.) I have to admit I've never been into crossovers that much, for no reason I can specify. Most of the ones I have read, I enjoyed, so it's not a dislike of the genre; I just tend not to go actively looking for them (maybe because I'm afraid that they'll screw with canon? I really don't know). But these were quite good!
On your Dr Who/B5 crossover: I loved how you were able to put so much into such a short story! The comment about wearing grey and white, the Dalek comparison, and this: There was sadness in his expression when she spoke of Centauri Prime. Because yes... of course he would know. By the way, has the Doctor, in his travels, always been concentrating mostly on Earth, as he seems to do in New Who? If yes, is it ever explained why? Or has he had non-human companions in the past, also? (ps: I couldn't find a "review" option on the whofic site - isn't there one, or am I just being blind?) Also, I found some pretty good non-shippy Nine fics over here (http://www.loony-archivist.com/mad/winners.htm) (the 2005 Dr Who fanfic awards).
After watching "Parting of the Ways", I finally understand why so many people are writing Doctor/Jack. *g* That was without a doubt the loveliest same-sex kiss I've ever seen on TV; neither too moralistic (as I remember from that episode of DS9) or too in-your-face, just perfectly natural and understated. I was very impressed. (btw: is that why I've read some people making snide comments about Torchwood supposedly "advertising homophilia"? As Jack is a main character there, I've gathered?)
