Like fire! Hellfire! [this fire in my skin]

Right, so! Pompeii: very lacking in Super Soaker outlets. Anyone have a water gun handy?

[the Master will learn to foil him!]

Do you still have that suicidal streak? I mean, given your situation...

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

No. But I appreciate your concern. Really, I do.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I'm always concerned for you, Doctor.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Oh, I can tell. Your worry comes off in waves.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Do you like it? The concern. Knowing that at the least, another Time Lord acknowledges you, despite what you've become.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

. . . What is it you're trying to do? 'Cause I can tell you now, mate, that it isn't working.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

If you don't know what it is, you can't tell me that it isn't working.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

[Shrugs] A bit lost on me, though, isn't it? Simple human psychology and all.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Enough of that; you're leaving yourself open.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Am I? Blimey, I had no idea. Thanks for the tip.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Not a problem; I know how much you need it.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Oh, and I'm ever so certain I need it, simple bloke that I am, now.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

...Don't say 'bloke.'

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Hn? Does it bother you that much, mate?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, it really gets me, love.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Didn't think you'd get so worked up about it.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I suppose I'm a very vulnerable sort.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Never took you as a sensitive sort of bloke.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I write poetry in my spare time.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

In rhymed iambic pentameter, I hope.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Except that every sixth line is in hexameter.
