Aw, that was great! *applause* Anything else I might say would cheapen it. :)

Thank you! :) An utterly terrible summary, mind you. ;)

That was quick :)

Terrific...I love the whole idea of the Valeyard threat hanging over the Doctor, always in the background...I loved how you wove that into 'The Satan Pit'.

I think I timed it quite badly - it appears to have been lost under all the reaction posts! ;)

I'm glad you liked the inclusion of the Valeyard. I've not seen much Old Who, but I like to try and use what little I know to try and make the story seem a bit less detached from the rest of it. :)

Brilliant! It really shows the layers of the Doctor's emotions and I think the thing about pity is true. It was almost wonder, and that's something that we've seen a lot in the tenth Doctor, whether the alien be evil or not, he sees a wonder in it.

Thank you! I do like that about this Doctor, that he appreciates the wonder of things. And that creature was definitely beautiful - I loved it. :)

Thanks! :)
