Genesis era fanfiction?
Bring it on, please!

(just dropping by - the mention of Nyder's name draws me like a snake to eggs)

Heh, I just started it a couple of days ago, and I've still got a lot of planning to do - so far, I've got two Doctors, one Master, four companions, Davros, Nyder, Bettan, and half-a-dozen other characters running around, and I'm really not sure where they're going. :)

But yes - the Genesis-verse is so rich in potential (especially for AUs) that I'm really surprised there isn't more fic about it.

(I knew it! I knew his name was spelled 'Nyder'. It's just that for some reason whenever I heard anyone speak it I kept thinking I heard 'Needa' and...gah. *taps braincase impatiently*)

Perhaps it's Ultimate Iron Chef on Skaro! Secret ingredient: giant clams?

Aside from one rather frivolous Bettan femslash story I saw once, and an abandoned Blake's 7/DR. Who crossover, there's next to nothing.
I'm sure you are all tied up with your own story, but after you're done (or if you're the sort who can read someone else's stories and not be distracted) I actually have a rather long AU series over at A Teaspoon and an Open Mind (http://www.whofic.com) which heavily involves many of the Genesis characters. It's called Damnatio Memoriae, (http://www.whofic.com/series.php?seriesid=98) and I'd love to hear what you think of it.

...for some reason, my mind went straight to Dalek-larva sushi. I really didn't want it to go there. *shivers*

That said, a multi-Doctor-and-Master cookoff would possibly be the best thing to ever happen. :)

And as I'm almost always working on something, I have no trouble reading others' fics while writing my own. Thanks for the link, and I'll be sure to give Damnatio Memoriae a look. Any particular place I should start, or fic that I should read first?

Well, the Teaspoon mods have been kind enough to give a recommendation to The Man Who Would Be Nyder (http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=16556&warning=NC-17), calling it my darkest, most disturbing and best story. And I agree, and it technically the first story in my alternate Skaro arc: but it is VERY dark. It tell the origins of Commander Nyder, growing up on Skaro.
If you've just watched 'Genesis', you might enjoy my AU rewriting of it - starting from the exact same starting point and premise and turning it inside-out one step at a time. That would be Doctor Who and the Dawn of the Daleks (http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=5721).
Whatever you choose, I hope you enjoy it!
