bagheera_sanAudio novels are the work of the devil. They enable me to get lost in worlds of imagination even while WALKING AROUND OUTSIDE and thus cause me to APPEAR LIKE A TOTAL LOON in public.
Earplugs in, press on, walk around, listen. Cue sudden outbursts of laughter for no discernible reason, and equally unprovoked sadface in other places. People start looking at you strangely in the bus (or a doctor's waiting room, for that matter.)
Listened to:
Zagreus: TARDIS/Doctor OTP. Or even better, Rassilon/TARDIS/Doctor.
The Apocalypse Element: People apparently really like Evelyn. I don't get why, to be honest. Her snark is so overdone! She never stops. Poor, poor Romana, though. I now have a completely different idea of her as Time War!President fighting the Daleks. It's personal.
The Time of the Daleks: LOL wut. "Shakespeare will be ex-ter-mi-nated!" This plot is so ridiculous that it could have been hatched by the Master. Magna Charta, I'm just saying. But Shakespeare quoting Daleks are... wonderful.
Master: Seven is a surprisingly good audio Doctor, and Geoffrey Beevers as the Master was nice. The story wasn't bad either. But I don't buy it. I don't buy this backstory, and I don't buy "love will save you". What I buy is that Seven (or the Doctor in general) would do something so ultimately pointless and cruel to the Master out of good intentions. Oh, and the Dostoevsky quoting caused some of the lulz that made me seem like a loon.

In other news, someone treated me to a coffee (after inciting me to skip the boring part of Creative Writing) yesterday. Only, he's about 40 and a lecturer. And terribly funny, and he likes my original writing. And I haven't got a hard time talking to him! Oh dear :D
