Say as much about Eight/Romana as you wish! One can never say too much about Doctor/Romana love.

I've been really looking forward to this post! Thank you for it! You have summed up, in a far better way that I ever could, just how fantastic this OT3 is!

Ahhh I want to listen to Neverland and Zagreus again.

(PS, I've been doing more Romana/Leela manips, I think I'm getting better. they are at my journal)

Hee, ok, that's alright then.

And hee, thank YOU. I've managed to talk a lot, mostly.

(Hee, will do.)

I'm sure it is a fantastic OT3, but I think I've missed out on the relevant canon, alas.

But that's the beauty of it, for all my blather, there's NOT a lot of relevant canon and what there is it's quite easy to just read up a little on. And then voila, fic. ;)

Thanks for commenting, even though you weren't familiar with the OT3. :)

Lovely! I haven't heard the Eighth Doctor audios, but two seasons of Gallifrey sold me on Romana/Leela (when I'm not sobbing over the tragedy of Leela/Andred, as I'm probably one of the only Leela/Andred shippers out there, heh), Leela/Four is a bulletproof OTP for me, and I'm casually pleased with Doctor/Romana in general. Mix 'em all up with some presidential politics, generals, and a war? Ys pls! I'm sold! :)

That is about the size of it, yes.

Leela/Four is bulletproof OTP for you? OMG! YES! *loves Leela/Four* This is why I love this OT3, it's so many pairings that are made of win and all come together beautifully.

Awww. I do sort of ship Leela/Andred and I LOVE that fic of yours (but fail at feedback) but ...I just ship Romana/Leela more. It's that thing I mentioned on my LJ, femslash>het.

Leela/Four is so, so great. I love the way you described it - it would just be part of things, not a big deal, comfortable and fun and they are so adorable together. I love Leela to bits, basically.

The Leela/Andred part of the audios is just pretty much what kept me listening, as I was totally taken in by teh drama and teh angst. Not typical I do that, but oh, they broke my heart but good. :D (Now that that's over, though...bring on the girlslash!)

Eeee, me too, she's fantastic. And she's sort of why it's NOT a big deal. It wouldn't be, to her and probably the Doctor'd be happy to take his queue from that.

See, I was taken by teh drama and teh angst and part of it was that Leela/Romana was so already happening and thus you have extra level of conflict. But I have no doubt there's a reading that the girlslash all happens post-Andred. You should def listen to season 3, it's got lots and lots of good things and lots of girlslash and...*thinks* yes, Andred-angst. I'm trying not to spoil, you listened to ALL of s2, right?
