Indistinguishable From Magic
Characters/Pairings: River, Zoe, Wash, cast.
Warnings: None
Spoilers: Major for the movie
Summary: Some things can’t be fixed. But some things can. And River, who knows the secrets of the government, can fix more things than most.
Comments: Any series that has a canonical character death will generate a whole subgenre of fix it stories. And sometimes, it produces damn good ones that keep everyone in character and keep things moderately probable. The characterization in this just hits the nail on so many occasions and this has quite simply the best River perspective that I’ve seen yet. It’s sane enough that you can follow it and it can actually contain a plot, but it’s still most definitely River, with all that implies. And it’s just a damn good fic.
One-shot, complete.
