Quick update, as am still netless and nicking Kevin's computer while he's in the kitchen, for I am thieving and devious. My ethernet connectionmajig should be here by now. Unless I forgot to order or pay for it? Hmm, must check eBay.

I do have four more of the Short Trips books, however, and can confirm loneraven's claim that the Christmas one contains Four/Eight slash. In verse form. There is snogging. I am dead of bogglement. The same volume has the Best Story Ever where Turlough goes Christmas shopping in Ann Summers. And there's an intriguing bit in one of the Third Doctor ones where Mike Yates is sulking that the Brig won't let him bring his partner, described as his "attractive young friend from Soho" - gender carefully unspecified - to the office party. Terrance Dicks, all is forgiven.

I'm going to read the Four and Romana stories first.

There's a very sweet story in the Companions anthology where Eight goes to Paris during City of Death to follow Romana around being mopey (and rescue the drawing of her from the cafe). The narrative expositions that she was the one companion he would have given up the whole wandering-round-the-universe thing for, if she'd ever asked. It is uber-shippy.

Awwww! I must get that Companions anthology. The Big Finish version of Shada is very shippy for Eight/Romana as well. Eight says things to her like: "I want to take you away from all this!" and "I need you, Romana...and K9," and "Please please please please please, Romana!"
