Plot: Wherein neither Jack nor the Doctor can get any sleep, but for very different reasons.
Review: The plot outline sounds like this should be a pure, unplotty PWP. Except there's plot and it's the ideas and characterisation that make this fic stand out.
Casira has a good handle on the Doctor and Jack - quite rare - and manages to write an R-rated fic without losing sight of that. It's short but doesn't feel rushed, well-written and has an atmosphere that is just right.
