But every word I write to you makes me feel like a fool,
I don’t know anything.”

“It ended with an email; I can’t believe you took that road.”


“I JUST WANT TO DELETE YOU!”

At first we were just Gallifreyans and that was fine.
Taking up space and biding our time.
Then Rassilon, came along,
With his ever present sense of right and wrong.
He was strong, he was mighty,
He was the founder of Time Lord Society.”

“Yeah, the deep sea anglerfish has no reason to be happy but she has no frigging idea, what else to be.”

Can’t quite explain.”

And there’s a fugitive aboard with a history of violence.
Smokey chased me through the jungle
