I hope you dirty birdies are at home or on the incognito page of your work computer, because some of these fics will make you feel all wibbley-wobbley inside and the artwork is lovely! Since I started watching Doctor Who and reading fanfic around the same time, this ship pairing happens to be my het OTP and the first ship I ever boarded. I love the chemistry between River and Eleven, mostly because River is a sexpot and the Doctor looks like he could use a good wank every once in a while. Oh myyyyyyyy…

1) The Curl of Your Bodies, Like Two Perfect Circles entwined by Amie33
Word Count: 7,748
I really enjoyed reading this after the series 7 finale, “The Name of the Doctor”. The premise of the fic is ghost!River comes to visit the Doctor, after they’ve said goodbye at Trenzalore. The crux is, she visits when the Doctor is with a younger version of his wife. This turns into a total timey-wimey threesome when Ghost!River and the younger River figure out what’s going on, with the Doctor smack dab in the middle of the fun.
2) Late Night Double Feature Picture Show by areyoumarriedriver
Word Count: 9,921
For some reason, I’ve rec’d another three-some fic. I suppose when one is a time traveller, one will run into one’s self. This time, it is the Doctor and Professor Song’s anniversary and his present to River is a second Doctor in Tesselecta form. Don’t worry, the Doctor will get double-River action, as well. This fic is steamy, with the voices of the Doctor and River captured perfectly in coitus. Dirty, I know.

3) Timey-Wimey Family by Amie33
Word Count: 30,338
This 4-part fic is pretty darn interesting. River is looking for her Doctor when she finds younger versions of Eleven and the Ponds who know little about their long-term relationship. After that, the chapters proceed to jump around all of time and space, per the requirements of a good Doctor Who fic. This story has some angst, as the Doctor and River are going in opposite directions in their timelines and therefore, each time they meet one of them knows the other better and one of them knows the other less. The meetings become a comedy of errors, especially when they forget to sync their diaries. There are some shmexy times, but definitely more plot than porn. Check the warnings and tags, because, SPOILERS! There is pregnant sex.
4) Justify My Thoughts of Flight by youlooklikethunder
Word Count: 26,808
The most difficult thing for Eleven is knowing his friends when they don’t know him. For the Doctor, the Ponds are gone, River is dead and he is companionless, but when the TARDIS happens upon an alternate reality in which Amy and Rory don’t know him, River is simply Melody Pond and HIS wife marries the Tenth Doctor (but is he a timelord…?), Eleven doesn’t know whether to be elated to see his family again or devastated because they really aren’t HIS at all. This one will have you sobbing in your tea, rooting for the Doctor and his true love, River Song. I feel like I should warn you, there’s no porn.
5) Night and the Doctor: A Story in Three Parts by SnubNosedSilhouette
Word Count: 19,258
If you’ve watched the 3 mini episodes penned by Moffat entitled “Night and the Doctor,” you will appreciate this fic as a canon addition to the story of River and Eleven’s night time activities. I immensely enjoy the fanfic that fills in the gaps of time between episodes with River. With a bit of detail on Marilyn Monroe and the Doctor, the aliens at the symphony plus Jim the Fish, readers get a glimpse at the secret adventures of the Doctor and his wife, which is what good fanfic is all about, right? Again, no porn. I promise, the next one.
6) Another Taste of Heavenly Rush by Del (goddessdel)
Word Count: 1,804
Porn level bright red in this fic rec’d to me by The Collectress on the occasion of my birthday. This story is a snippet of time between River and the Doc, as as she drops in on her hubby in the TARDIS for a booty call. This one is dirty! Just how I like it. Pretty much PWP.

7) I Was Born Just To Get You by Ciardha
Word Count: 37,301
This is a time!babies fic in which River and Eleven have kids and deal with the loss of the Ponds all with Clara on board. These are moments on their timelines that intersect in a really unique way. There is a bit of a timey-wimey plot twist that has us readers and River meeting all of the Doctor’s greatest companions. This is one of the first fics I ever read, and I thank my boo, the Collectress, for finding it for me when I couldn’t remember the name, author, site I read it or really any details about the plot. Oh, no porn. Look at me, I’m an old lady…
8) (it’s the season of grace) coming out of the void by hihoplastic
Word Count: 18,356
This is a longer fic, and boy is it intense. The POV is a bit confusing at first, and there are obscure little sections of pretty dark moments in the life of River Song without the Doctor, that are fascinating. We jump around the life of River Song and learn canon-esque information about the timeline of the Doctor’s Wife. The moments between the Doctor and River are pretty angsty but not smutty. Sorry.
9) Danger is Her Middle Name by leiascully
Word Count: 2,033
This one-shot PWP short story is all about River Song and what she does to the Doctor when she’s on an adrenaline high. There isn’t much plot to speak of, but since I’ve rec’d so many plot based pieces in this list, I figured, what the hell…?

10) You sheltered me from the storm by fate_incomplete
Word Count: 3,683
I enjoyed this short fic, even though the smut is a bit lowkey. River is doing her time at Stormcage and spends most of her time waiting for the Doctor to come visit her. During her time in jail, she makes an unlikely friend. I think the Collectress would like this one, even though she’s not a huge River/11 shipper like I am, precisely because of the surprise guest appearance.

11) What’s Mine is Yours by TygerTyger
Word Count: 3,486
So, although this is short and somewhat smutty, there is a bit of plot to be had. The Doctor and River have switched bodies and get to experience first hand what turns the other on. It is actually really hot, and I was sick of reading River/Older version of Eleven/Younger version of Eleven fics. This is a unique premise that I haven’t run into before in the DW fandom. In fact, These last 3 fics were found on my new fave site, Whofic.com–check it out to find fanfics that include each one of the Doctor’s regenerations and his many different companions.
