Here, everybody, have a stream-of-consciousness PWP. Unbetaed. Happy Monday?

Story: Counting to Nine
Author: [livejournal.com profile] sapote3
Rated: NC17
Pairing: Nine/Jack/Rose



One was the shirt that she dropped on the ground, purple polyester - she was used to using the TARDIS as her personal clothesline - as she backed away across the decking to the alcove where he slept. Her skin was creamy white, and he looked up at her and thought human.

Two were the sets of hands on her, Jack's ridiculous tender open palms against her square ribcage, against the pink upward swells of her breasts, and the Doctor's hands went still on her back as he watched Jack's mouth whisper silent words into the curves of her side. Jack was more careful than he expected; easy, competant. Jack looked up at him, eyes dark, and -

Three was the way their mouths met, the slow drag of lips, his mouth against Rose's temple, the way her breath caught as Jack's mouth opened against hers, as he turned to the Doctor and -

Four was the number of hearts beating in the bed when the Doctor slid inside her, Jack's hands stroking up his sides and down between them, his own breath a sobbing in his ears, and he met met Rose's eyes and -

Five was the slow count under his breath, the careful thrust because it had been so long since he'd done this, and her breasts were soft and heavy against his chest, and Jack kissed her hard, ran his hands up the Doctor's back, his erection rubbing into her thigh, into the movement of their legs as she wrapped around him -

Six rising gasps, her face pinching with concentration, with immediacy, and she threw back the pale curve of her throat and tightened around him, unlikely and present and there with him, with both of them, and Jack's fingers paused and moved again between them and she turned her face into Jack's shoulder and laughed, coming hard around him.

Seven bolts held the bed in place, and he heard each of them squeak under the strain, his arms barely holding him up in the slick slide and scent and press of Rose's ankles crossed up around his shoulderblades and - there, and Jack's hand is on the back of his neck, somehow, when he comes.

Eight strokes of his hand, with Rose pillowed up against him dazed and gleaming, with his breath still catching in his lungs. Jack was braced up over him, eyes squeezed shut, and he twisted his wrist and watched Jack's face tense and his shoulders stutter as he spurted into the Doctor's hand.

Nine long breaths until they fell asleep, the two of them, curled up around the Doctor as the TARDIS spun through space, and he watched them with bemused eyes, and kept count.

That was lovely! Soft, sensous and very *them*. The structure works really well. I'm saving this one ;-)

I loved it- it was sweet un a way- especially with the numbers like that. Like a naughty childrens book. :D

thank you, anonymous!

This? Made my Monday a LOT better. This is my very favorite threesome, and I loved this. The structure and the stream of consciousness thing both work very well here.

Aw, thanks, lurk, I'm really glad you liked it! Yeah, this is pretty much my OT3, right here. I wish I could find more good fic for them. I'm pleased that the structure worked out.

Really lovely.
Monday, August 20th, 2007 05:12 pm (UTC)
Thank you!
Monday, August 20th, 2007 05:05 pm (UTC)
Very nice! I do love some OT3. Never really had an OT3 before Nine, Rose and Jack showed me the light. Now I can't get enough of 'em.
Monday, August 20th, 2007 05:13 pm (UTC)
I know, they really made the OT3 thing work for me too. Obviously. Thanks for reading and commenting!
Monday, August 20th, 2007 08:59 pm (UTC)
Oh, my :) That's lovely; hot and sweet.
Monday, August 20th, 2007 09:47 pm (UTC)
thank you!
Monday, August 20th, 2007 09:21 pm (UTC)
I'm so very glad to see more people writing the OT3. They really are a special combination. Most threesomes are either triangles or "three cute people we want to see together", but this really is a relationship, where you can't easily extract one of the terms once they've all clicked into place (which so very obviously happened between the end of TDD and beginning of Boom Town!).

Nicely done!
Monday, August 20th, 2007 09:48 pm (UTC)
I know, they are so ... post-clicked? in Boom Town.

Yum. Needs to be more 9 fic in the world. Especially of the pr0n variety. Love the counting too. Very sweet imagery. And BTW thanks for the recs. I've read a couple of them but I missed some. Thanks for upping the Monday rating!
Monday, August 20th, 2007 11:03 pm (UTC)
I know. Especially since we all know what Christopher Eccleston looks like naked. God bless European media.

Ooh, this is beautiful! Fantastic structure, and very definitely sensual and completely gives a sense of belonging. Perfect!

For more OT3 fic, [livejournal.com profile] honorh has given you some terrific recommendations above. Adalia Zandra, over on Teaspoon, has written some OT3, at least one including Nine, which is all subtext but the love is so very present. I really, really recommend Triangles (http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=13147). If you're okay with Ten/Rose/Jack, then Sense (http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=14300) is one of the best OT3 hurt/comfort fics I've read. Also look for Saganami Dreams on Teaspoon; she's primarily Jack/Rose, but the Doctor's never far behind. For something a bit more complex, and which left me breathless, Suture (http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=8531), by Fahye.

I've written a few OT3s myself, both long and plotty and short and smutty ;) and with both Nine and Ten, though I do prefer Nine. :) If you're interested, my author page on Teaspoon is here (http://www.whofic.com/viewuser.php?uid=637) - though check out all the other recs first!
Tuesday, August 21st, 2007 12:44 am (UTC)
oh wow! Write one PWP and get showered with recs, I like this system! Thanks, and I'm so glad you enjoyed this story.
Tuesday, August 21st, 2007 01:06 am (UTC)
Oh, I like this structure. Very clever! It draws your attention less to the act itself and more to the emotions and the complexity of the relationships that surround it. Very nice! Thank you so much for sharing!

And, as long as we're on the recommendation bandwagon here, one of my favourite OT3 writers is DameRuth (http://www.whofic.com/viewuser.php?uid=2528) and aerotica (http://www.whofic.com/viewuser.php?uid=2741) does a lovely OT3 as well.

Enjoy the rec's and I look forward to seeing more from you in the future!
Tuesday, August 21st, 2007 02:58 am (UTC)
Thank you! And oo, recs. There is a rec party in my comments tonight. I am enjoying this.

Thank you for reading and commentating!
Tuesday, August 21st, 2007 01:07 am (UTC)
Oooh, OT3 smut! And very nice at that. Well done.
Tuesday, August 21st, 2007 03:01 am (UTC)
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Tuesday, August 21st, 2007 05:59 am (UTC)
This was lovely, and I completely agree with dark_aegis above about the emotions coming through very strongly. Also second the rec that wendymr made for Fayhe's "Suture" (and everyone else's recs as well).

Since everyone's doing recs I might as well jump in as well :)

FUZZY by [livejournal.com profile] wired_lizard (Jack/Rose, 9) - NC-17 for smut - This one's more Jack/Rose, but their "interaction" (ahem!) has everything to do with the Doctor, plus a really original take on telepathy. This is also supposed to be a prequel for 9/Rose/Jack story still to be written (hopefully she'll write it).
http://community.livejournal.com/dwfiction/479682.html

HANA-MI by [livejournal.com profile] aervir (9/Rose/Jack) - PG-13 - The cherry blossoms are in bloom in Japan; lovely little slice of life (takes place between "Boomtown" and "Bad Wolf")
http://community.livejournal.com/time_and_chips/1431182.html

"Something Like Moebius" by [livejournal.com profile] doyle_sb4 - G - The author's summary is best: Eleven-year-old Jack has your typical possessed-alien-teacher experience (also contains an adult Jack, Rose and the Doctor- not OT3 in the strictest sense, but who can resist eleven-year old Jack?)
http://doyle-sb4.livejournal.com/390405.html

"They Danced" by taleya - NC-17 - 9/Rose/Jack smut - hot! Mostly PWP, but it's very well written. This one's a classic:
http://homepages.ihug.com.au/~taleya/dw/dance.html

"Slightly Psychic Confessions" by Casira - NC-17 - 9/Rose/Jack - Another incredibly hot PWP that makes very original use of psychic paper. Another early classic!
http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=3273&warning=NC-17

"Acceptance and Loss" by [livejournal.com profile] ponygirl72 - PG13 - 9, Rose, Jack friendship - This is another one of those stories that does a wonderful job of showing the growing friendship between Jack, Rose and the Doctor. It's also got an excellent action/adventure plot, and the hospital scene between Jack and the Doctor just kills me every time I read it. Be sure to check out the sequel.
http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=5468

ACTS OF NECESSITY by [livejournal.com profile] aeshna_uk (Jack/Rose, 9th Doctor) - NC17 - Pretty much a hurt/comfort type of sex story, but really impressive for the excellent characterization of all the principles. Even though the Doctor doesn't get any horizontal action, I loved the characterization of him in this story, where driven by his inner demons, he can't help but hurt those around him.
http://aeshna-uk.livejournal.com/2173.html

FIVE TIMES JACK THOUGHT BETTER OF IT by [livejournal.com profile] lightgetsin - (9/Rose/Jack) - PG-13 - Lovely Jack POV observations starting in "The Empty Child" and ending post-Satellite 5.
http://lightgetsin.livejournal.com/241488.html
(also check out other stories by lightgetsin, he/she has also done some really good smutty OT3s as well)

wendymr's done lots of great OT3 stories, but I think this is my favorite one:
FINDING JUDAS by [livejournal.com profile] wendymr - (10/Jack, 10/Rose) - Mostly PG-13 but with a couple of very R parts - Probably my favorite reunion fic that proves the old adage that you can't go home again.
http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=8907
(be sure to check out the sequels!)

Oh, wow. This is awesome. Thank you! I have read exactly one of these before, I am going to enjoy getting through this list.

And thank you for the feedback! I appreciate it.
Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007 11:17 am (UTC)
this was beautiful. So sensual and evocative and delicate. Really lovely.
Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007 07:48 pm (UTC)
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Thursday, August 23rd, 2007 01:29 am (UTC)
This is really, truly gorgeous. I absolutely love this. SO beautiful. Do you have an account on Teaspoon? Because I'd really like to add this to my favorites.
Thursday, August 23rd, 2007 01:38 am (UTC)
Thank you so much! So far I've been dragging my feet about archiving anywhere besides lj, but I should, of course. I'm so glad you enjoyed this story!
Sunday, August 26th, 2007 06:07 am (UTC)
Oooh, I very much like this stream-of-consciousness idea with the counting. Neat. :)
Monday, August 27th, 2007 05:29 am (UTC)
Oh, that's lovely and sexy, with a unique style.
Sunday, September 9th, 2007 03:00 pm (UTC)
That was absolutely gorgeous! Tender, loving and yet HOT.
Monday, October 1st, 2007 11:46 pm (UTC)
I liked this very much - and it's the very first DW fic I've read. So, thanks for the good start! :)
