I have yet to understand why the most common phrase in unimaginative-creak-writerdom is "tongues battling for dominance." All I know is it cracks me up no end.
I mean, seriously, tongues battling for dominance?
Doctor's Tongue: *slaps Rose's Tongue with a glove* I challenge you to a duel!
Rose's Tongue: *fiery* I accept!
Doctor's Tongue: To the death!
Rose's Tongue: To the death!
Swords: *clash*
Doctor's Tongue: First blood!
Rose's Tongue: Ow!
Swords: *clang*
Rose's Tongue: Ha ha!
Doctor's Tongue: I say! Foul play!
Rose's Tongue: That rhymed!
Doctor's Tongue: Insolent twit!
Rose's Tongue: Ridiculous and underhanded poet!
Doctor's Tongue: Bah!
Rose's Tongue: *grunts*
Doctor's Tongue: *sweats*
...yup. Still don't understand it.
