Author: [archiveofourown.org profile] Petra 
Fandom: Life on Mars (UK), Ashes to Ashes
Genre: Time Travel, Characters, LGBT
Length: Short (2,016 Words)

Author's Summary:
If Alex were at home, looking and feeling like herself only by dint of seriously hard work, she's afraid she'd hate Annie for doing it all so easily.

Review:
Spoiler: the 70s and 80s in LoM/AtA aren't real - they're all sharing a coma-induced dream.  That said, what happens when a trans person is living it?  Well, for Alex (MTF in this story) her body matches her mind and it's finally uncomplicated.  The time travel/social history element and the addition of contact with the returned Sam Tyler make this an interesting, though short, fic.

Author's Summary:
Reg and Visit are drawn into a mystery at the heart of Ankh Morpork's undead community. Why would a lifelong black-ribboner suddenly try to kill his landlady? And why have his ashes mysteriously disappeared? With the rest of the Watch focused on a threat to the new underground rail network, Reg and Visit will need to work together to solve the case, because if the two of them can't manage to put aside their differences, somebody's going to get away with murder...

Review:
Fantastic case-fic featuring Reg and Visit in great canon style/voice. Definitely one of the top Discworld fics.
