I hate this weather. Today was a two nightmare day, and the first nightmare was very anatomical and very memorable.

Actually I came back to this draft a couple hours later and the nightmare has gone a bit interesting philosophically. Like, there was so much magical healing it went all ax of my fathers, where by the end we had effectively cloned Eliot. Like which one was the original was complex because they'd been frankensteined really creatively in between, but there were definitely two of them when the healing settled in.

Also I like that my reading has given my dream me more of a tool kit. Like sure, gaming in the Shadow gives me spectacular nightmare fuel, but, the nightmare guys tell me I shall be in the dark Forever
and I just shout Sarenrae.

Eat sunlight.

Today I watched The Husbands of River Song
which is funny but at least a bit mean and then sad and then back to complicated happy
and very much full of feels.
( Read more... )



So I finished watching and decided the next Bug Finish listen had to be the River Song set I haven't listened to yet.
But so far it is River and Ace and Tegan and not actually remembering everything and working at cross purposes and being bad at lying (Ace and Tegan) and doing terrible accents (the actors realised the characters can't act as well as they can) and it is an interesting setup but not particularly feelings yet so I managed to displease me with a perfectly reasonable story.

Also the temperature continues Blergh.



So I am going to check the internet for a bit before I listen the second episode.

I have watched Doctor Who up through Hell Bent.

That is a lot of feelings all in a row.

Actually Sleep No More felt pointless and boring. Nothing got fixed and it was made of lies anyway.

Face the Raven struck me as more of a jump for Clara this time around. Like it follows on from the last episode with Rigsy but is less smooth as a progression of the previous episodes. It fits, but.
The trap street made me angry. Trap for refugees. Keeping them under control with a potential death sentence. Angry.
It was interesting making them all look human but with glimpses, like translating them all back, but also skipped a lot of individual differences and needs. Like pretending nobody is disabled ao you wouldn't have to think about reasonable accomodations.
Clara being brave was a good ending.
And then.

Heaven Sent was very very good indeed.
(more angry happening of course.)
Talk about a star showcase.

Hell Bent ... did pretty much the opposite of wrapping anything up.
Gallifrey unwrapped.

I don't know as I'm keen on the general theme of Consequences What Consequences, but, story do continue to unwind, so.

I think the Hybrid prophecy is a daft thing to be worried about though. Someone standing in the ruins sounds more like an Archaeologist.



Doctor Who is still very good.

But August very much reminds me there's meant to be more to life than Doctor Who.

Which I should make plans to achieve.
even a bit.

I even saved the game properly so I can prove it.

Did it pop up an achievement? Did it heck. Haven't had achievements show since 02/08 and it is very annoying because I have Achieved repeatedly.

But I named the main character Coren so I shall remember which victory was on Core when it is import to main game time.

... I also finished saving the world without having a rest, which is just showing off really. They were soooo out of spells, and we couldn't use Guarded Hearth again without resting, but honestly the only fight in this game that gave me any difficulty at all is Chained Darkness.

I think winning was quite a lot luck. My best characters were hitting on 16s and most tries they just ran out of health before the Darkness did. But this time I did a bunch of Dispels early so they got rid of his best spells, and he never cast one really annoying one because surrounded by stabby. Either that or it was bugged. But I won either way.

Happy now :-)



Possibly shall do something other than retry this for entire numbers of days...
