Author's Note: Someone remind me to never give anything a title beginning with "B". Every time I do – "Blue Fields, Blue Sky", "Beneath a Beating Sun", "Balance" – it swells to unmanageable scope and size and takes me years to finish.

Hello, welcome, first post hurrah, etc. etc. This is a mirror which will eventually be the main posting site for Damaged People, a massively multifandom accidental epic following Sam Tyler (Life On Mars) and Jack Harkness (Doctor Who and Torchwood) on their misadventures, as they explore the galaxy, almost destroy some worlds, and barely save others.

Damaged People was originally posted on LiveJournal, in the community damageverse.

A history of the project, complete with links to Silent Hill/Tetris crossovers (just the one crossover, really...) can be found here: http://magibrain.dreamwidth.org/514999.html

Alternately, you can start in on the suggested reading order (or any of the individual chronologies) here: http://damaged-people.dreamwidth.org/655.html?#cutid1
