    Huh. I didn't think this building was old enough for that.

    Only if I want him to complain to my boss. Okay. He's gone now. I was able to eat, but he of course had a few last words in front of my desk before I could get to the last bite. If I didn't know better, I'd think this entire place was bugged by a Starve he Receptionist Brigade.

    The second I decide to eat my lunch, someone walks in. The second I start to open my thermos, he decides to wait by my desk for the meeting he's scheduled for. What does he have against non-hungry receptionists? Edit: Now he's sitting...by my desk. HOW'S ABOUT I COME STAND BY YOUR DESK AND SIGH WHEN YOU'RE ABOUT TO EAT, PAL????

    If that's just the tip of the iceberg, I'm guessing his insanity runs pretty deep.

    "Be that word our sign of parting, Kobold and ThirdGen!" I shrieked, upstarting. See? Even Poe knew you don't have to mention Ye Scottish Play to terrify people.

    I am going to laugh so hard if Metronome goes to the finals.

    BACON! Have you ever had bacon roasted over a campfire? It's delicious. I'll bet Obliteration could roast bacon like that. Must be pretty handy, right? I wonder if he likes bacon. (No more gazelles no more gazelles no more gazelles no more gazelles...)

    I think I'll host our first date over Skype. Just in case.

    I...I was thinking the Gospels...and maybe a few nice, safe Psalms. Verses you can read to children without having to field a dozen embarrassing questions.

    Is this a pretty fitting reenactment? I haven't even visited Tumblr in two years.

    Alas. My crack shipping has finally come full circle, and it is now my turn to be shipped with a character I would never in a million years choose for myself. I shall accept my fate and seek out some good Bible verses to read on our first date. Preferably ones about not killing people who bring you lens cleaner.

    You mean....I Am Not a Serial Killer broke the unwritten law of fiction stating that all therapists must be terrible at their jobs in case the author needs an easy source of manufactured drama?
  13. TwiLyghtSansSparkles
    His first talk with his therapist--slightly past that, actually. I really liked it, though.

    Could be. Or, speaking as someone who wears glasses and can't even read a street sign without them, I can say that losing your glasses can be a pretty terrifying experience. Especially since David and Prof would probably manhandle those things and get their stupid fingerprints all over the lenses, so Obliteration wouldn't be able to look at anything without a big old thumbprint over his eye, and it would take him forever to find a decent lens cleaner because society has crumbled and nobody cares about glasses anymore.... I'm not saying his reaction to having his glasses stolen is reasonsble. I'm just saying I understand.

    How'd it break?

    Update: I shared the link for Hamlet with my sister. By all indications, it's like an early Christmas present for her.

    But his powers worked on David. He was not only able to teleport and channel heat around him; he was able to teleport with David hanging on.

    Again, he's seen the beginning and end of the universe. He waxes nostalgic about people known only to legend. What makes twenty-first century Londoners so special? Also to cut back on the effects budget, the Doctor could simply reply to everything the pug says. "No, we are not going there again. Yes, I know those people all looked and sounded exactly like squeaky toys, but you nearly caused a war! *sigh* All right, we can make a quick detour to the Planet of the Coffee Shops, but you get one scone and that's it!" And think how cute a pug would look in a replica of Tom Baker's scarf.

    Serious suggestion: He picks up an alien on one of the planets he visits at the beginning of the season. He or she helps the Doctor save the planet and then goes off with him to see the stars. It could even be an Earth-like planet in the sense that this companion's people don't have much in the way of space-exploring technology, giving the audience a similar yet foreign perspective on the Doctor's adventures. Not serious suggestion: I've always thought pugs acted like tiny little aliens. If the Doctor speaks everything, he'd understand Pug.

    No, sadly. I started the first and made slow but steady progress, but then I realized how much further I had to read in WoK before my loan at the library was up, so I focused on that and wound up having to return the other book to the library because it had a hold on it. I put it back on hold, though, and if it comes in by then, I'll probably wind up reading it on the plane when I go up to Portland for a friend's wedding. (Fun fact: I almost wrote Poetland instead of Portland. )

    Do you have one referencing the failure of the Articles of Confederation after the Revolutionary War, leading to the ratification of the Constitution?
  22. TwiLyghtSansSparkles
    Yeah, everyone who reads his stuff says he writes beautiful prose, but he writes it very slowly.
  23. TwiLyghtSansSparkles
    I've never read anything by Rothfuss.
  24. TwiLyghtSansSparkles
    Eh, it's spring in places like Arizona and California. Everywhere else, it's still winter. March too, if you're in a state like Washington or North Dakota. Earlier is earlier, in my book.
  25. TwiLyghtSansSparkles
    I'll make sure I'm in a different state by then.
