#iris' notes

[willowandlily]

things I wrote down (well actually typed this time!) while listening to 'Time in Office':

podcast bro on gallifrey is really being like nah I'm not sexist I was a woman once

some things never change I suppose

I love the opening of this audio wtf XD

'What does a vortex manipulator do?' 'It… manipulates the vortex.' Leela ilysm never change <333

pausing bc I need to take notes this is such a vibe :D

also I love how offended Leela is when Tegan asks if she's a timelord XD

genuinely love the characterisation of Tegan here, she's only known Leela a few minutes but she's polite and seems genuinely a little sad when she vanishes from the TARDIS

lmao get dumped Turlough

bloody hell

valid reaction from the Doctor XD

lmao she read his mind

CAREFUL WITH TEGAN.

'I'm not worried, I'm cross.' as she gets dragged off XD

I like Lowrie thus far, she better not suck later

These are such Gallifrey-y voices aren't they

You tell them girl!

LMAO THERE'S A LIST OF PPL WHO THINK HE'S FLIGHTY (they're not wrong lol)

he doesn't half sound like a petulant child XD

She's so glad to see Leela :D

they locked her up???

oh Leela lol

I love them.

'So is this the water-feature of Rassilon?'

ah, this is a five doctors aftermath then

lmao Earth references

'a big personality' you could say that lol

aw the girlies doing bureaucracy together <3

no naming him.

haha and no robes. Get fucked politics-freaks!

I LOVE that neither of them know this shit

THIS IS WAY TOO FUCKING REAL

BACK OFF MOTHERFUCKER

Leela's polite voice is so wonderfully dangerous-sounding.

Bro's trying to blow their conservative little heads off XD

WOAH he's got a posh voice

…Andred?

le wokeism tut tut

turlough andred and k9 got rid of simples-style XD

um

Leela…

green-card marriage XD

Policy Adjustment Bureau… a bit CIA no? so on Gallifrey you can just bs your way through anything if you have enough titles

'We have no time.' 'But you're the TIME lords!'

normal bureaucracy things (for sure for sure)

the P.A.B.

yikesssss tryna do ur job in front of ur tinder date

NO SHIT HE'S ARMED BITCH

you did what???

LET'S GO LEELA!!!

always with the time-ring hating and the running

I love seeing the mundanity of life in the Capitol for regular citizens

wtf is even the point of having a president if there's powers above him that are like that

I assume this is pre-Romana?

meanwhile Tegan???

literally as I typed it lol (that bodes well for the pacing /pos)

why? because I say so!

Leela whispering 'marriage' in his ear is sending me

AMBASSADOR? HELL YEAH!

'Sorry Ma'am' I love her I love her I love her.

oh… that was a tone shift??

this is peak whiny Doctor lmao

Gallifrey but if it was a farcical comedy. Oh no, wait…

a WARDIS??? (did I hear that right?)

BRO LEARNT ON AUTOMATIC ah no actually that's valid

'It is very big on the outside'

Ha he's grumpy that he doesn't get to mansplain to Tegan!

No Tegan, his ego, his poor ego /j

'If you think gardens are peaceful, you've never talked to a spider' Leela what do you mean by this?

LEELA WHAT??

she absolutely would harm a fly, but still, what???

she sounds so surprised by 'quick-witted'??

who the fuck is inek?

azal?

TEGAN XD

she's really making small talk rn

this is giving 'you dated the brutal dictator of Nicuragua'

OOH FLASHBACK

FUCK YEAH LEELA

she's such a badass!!!

the laughter is crazy work

I'm glad we get to know the backstory

5 and Leela is such a funny combo

Tegan is so awkward here lmaooo

LEELA'S NOT SORRY AT ALL XD

'Then I also tender my immediate resignation.' 'You don't have a job!'

'Leela had nothing to do with it.' 'Yes I did??'

Lowrie is so real lmao

PROOF THAT LEELA CAN DRIVE A TARDIS

fast return switch my beloved

'This is a peace garden' 'We could fight somewhere else!'

wow life on Gallifrey really has driven Leela stir-crazy

…was Romana in E-space or on Etra prime at this point?

oldest trick in the book

bro you should be scared of her XD

'hacked? what does that mean?' I forget she's from the 20th Century lol

you said stop them getting in not out babes, in fairness that's on you /j

'What is this building?' 'It's a shed.'

calling running away 'under-rated' XD

there's too many funny lines I can't keep up!!

bro said fuck your husband let's just go!

Tegan's voice is so expressive XD

fighting religious fervour with more religion

I was getting under his skin! Nuh uh!

'What is she doing Doctor?' 'I have no idea, but I hope it's something good.'

she's living for the drama /j

TEGAN JOVANKA THE ICON THAT YOU ARE <333

ha he's shrinking???

oh, did you mean to do that babe?

yikes

poor Teegs

oh, this would have been a fire TARDIS TEAM

'Just because my TARDIS is bigger than yours'

the bullying tells you it's a real friendship

ooh, music time :D this is fucking fire omg

aaand we're back baby :D

FUCK YEAH TEGAN um sorry what babe

meanwhile Turlough lmao

temporal drill is crazy work XD

YICK

Tegan watch yourself babe!!

Leela as… presidential bodyguard…?

TARDIS SOUNDS???

BRO AINT NO WAY YOU'RE GETTING A SECOND DATE

aaaand it's yet another under-the-counter political ploy.

'Tegan's role?' BITCH SHE WAS THE WHOLE THING FUCK YOU MEAN ROLE??

Logopolis mention

'almost nobody does' which is the writers' way of getting out of explaining it XD

the sash and staff bbg the everything of Rassilon XD

I love them giggling at him :D

'Only if I don't have to wear Rassilon's hand-me-downs.'

panopticon mention

this feels like a ploy lol

uh oh

sci-fi noises

Tegan electing herself fashion correspondant for the whole citadel XD

'Maybe you could change the colour of the sky instead'

ooh fluid sculpture for statues of all regenerations is fucking cool

he really doesn't like being faced with his other incarnations does he?

4th wall??? Tegan calling him on his bs XD

ha get acting-presidented

Leela :')

liar. Doctor you liar :(

the timeframe is crazy lmao

famous last words lol

and, outro.

So so so good :D

[willowandlily]

my takeaways (notes) from Partisans:

MANTUS IS A FUCKING GIT AND I HATE HIS ASS BEATING HIM WITH STICKS MANY STICKS BIG STICKS

timelords are awkward as fuck when they care about each other's wellbeing :D

THESE BITCHES NEED LEELA SO MUCH

Narvin calling Romana 'Dear Coordinator', even with sarcasm>>>>>

Eris is so baby <3

'Romana and Narvin'

Oh yippee, xenophobic imperialists- my favourite! not.

'ERIS ARE YOU TAKING NOTES???' 'THIS IS A SECRET MISSION YOU CAN'T TAKE NOTES?!'

it's always the ordinary people who have to suffer in this war, and under the fucking arrogance of the timelords.

'Romana I beg you, not that option'- oh he's so soft with it :,(

the way Romana says 'the Daleks'<<<<<

all non-intervention has basically gone out of the window.

'her faithful deputy'

'I'm not that old!'- Narvin XD

(but also like genuinely timelords are so weird about age)

there's no academy- so no learning, yet more control over the population- by keeping them uneducated you keep them compliant…

'No respiratory bypass- you're out of practice!'- GET REKKED NARVIN

there's so much theoretical knowledge versus the real practical realities going on here

then I just wrote in massive letters:

OH PISS OF MANTUS.

GIT.

so many british wartime references going on here, it's really quite unsettling.

Timelords are so aggravating- they assume they know what to do even when they've never really experienced anything about anything.

I also wrote down 'ALADRA WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING???' literally a second before Narvin said almost exactly the same thing XD.

Romana has just genuinely lost all faith in her people at this point… I suppose their actions speak louder than their words.

'Aladra is Rassilon's creature, heart and soul'- jesus fucking christ…

Livia is a complicated woman.

'Oh I'm always careful'- Romana have you met yourself?????

nothing is ever simple with these BLOODY TIMELORDS!

'Of course I do, I'm the specialist'- this woman is just completely devoid of conscience… Rassilon's fucking lapdog.

the shooting scene was fucking brutal, and of course Narvin feels it, he has only this one life, and to watch someone else's lives get snuffed out just like that…

'not the timelords, something much worse' 'What's worse???'

It really is as simple as that for her.

Narvin's reaction to Eris turning back up again XD

something something the vulnerability of regeneration…

Knowing what happens to the timelords makes this all the more intense- 'living death' 'living, Eris'

How is Eris the only one who really understands that they DON'T have the right…?!

Narvin…

'It's not much like home these days, is it?' 'Nevertheless Gallifrey is home'

genocide is ARGUABLY WORSE THAN TREASON!!!

the contempt that Romana places on 'civilised' when she's talking about her people…

[willowandlily]

things I wrote down while listening to Assassins:

fuck you.

fuck the IDU.

timorous little cantico

'disaster of Ysalus'- wonderfully subtle rebellion from Romana

how big is your ego??? god he's so awful

'This is Rassilon's will, so it is done.'- Literally echoing Catholic prayer, the man's insane- he sees himself as genuinely being god!

DO NOT. LAUGH AT HER.

edict deez nuts, Rassilon.

ooh Ollistra mention!

god the music is gorgeous this series.

'undercardinal'- they do so love insulting each other via their titles.

Oh, Livia...

'Spending your entire life sitting on the fence [...] very uncomfortable'

[Livia of Rassilon] 'stealing his thunder'- GIRL BE SO SERIOUS.

'Eris, Dalia, Ace, Leela'- KEEP THEIR NAMES OUT OF YOUR MOUTH.

What the actual fuck is going on???

'The Lord President Eternal'- lmao the sarcasm

you lot are so bloody CARELESS!

'Help me, Narvin'- and his immediate jump to it :)

Oh Romana, you manipulative... :D

'Blurred and contradictory'- I'LL SAY

'What about... Leela?'- oh the pain in her voice :((

'Nothing'- oh Narvin :(

She can't let herself dwell on it for more than a few moments...

Where are the Shobogans?????

'Outsiders. The ones who don't matter.'- ...

'You're worrying me, Romana' 'Good.'- GIRL T-T

see the title made that fairly obvious lol.

narvin freakouttttt. She's so calm and he's so not XD

'He is not a god' 'I'd say [...] to the majority he is.'

Yikes, when you put it like that, the current state of the planet seems even worse.

He can't speak against her any more, but he also can't go with her anymore... oh Narvin...

'Romana would never stand for it.'

oh his regenerations... how dare you. fuck you fuck you fuck you.

Timelord, Dalek...

Narvin I know you can be loyal.

'Loyalty to Gallifrey. Nothing you're not already willing to give.'

Yes however Rassilon ≠ Gallifrey (...?)

'Presidential throne room'- not a thing. throne room -> king

oh, full naming him. pious little Narvin...

why is this oddly sexual (dom/sub)?

Narvin you are a terrible liar.

'Genesis' mention!

'Director. Not like you to call me... direct.'- terrible

'flavour of the month' is such an odd fucking thing to say [about oneself] T-T

Oh the closeness... but the wedge inbetween them :(

Lmao 50 microspans of peace! Goody!!

ugh, 'daughters of time'- biblical and icky.

NARVIN DIDN'T SNITCH :D

regicide, sacrilege... her 'blessing' to kill the President.

recursion :D

the emotional manipulation???

LEELA

LEELA

OH MY GOD LEELA'S SAFE!

(ish)

'barely qualifies as a timelord'- oh Narvin :'(

NARVIN!???!

oh. my god.

why are their [Romana and Rassilon's] voices like that, are they circling each other???

She's only trying to do what she feels is right.

Zagreus mentioned! ALL the lore in this one, my goodness.

LIVIA :D

LIVIA I LOVE YOU!???

two Queens.

oh so that's why there were so many matrix mentions this ep.

'ahhh, so you have a door.'

YES GIRLS. LET THAT SINK IN. (and by sink I mean horde of soldiers :D)

'a real timelord once again'- YOU ARSEHOLE.

Narvin's screams <<<<<

NARVIN THUMPING ON THE DOOR <<<<<

oh so it's not done

So... the CIA just... has a key. To the THRONE ROOM OF RASSILON.

my idealistic brain imagines them [Romana and Narvin] clutching at each-other's arms as he runs in :')

'Is he?' 'I'm afraid he is. Alive, that is.'

His groans of pain turning into laughter <<<<<

LIVIA DON'T TOUCH HIM.

Omega mention!

"Back in my day" yeah yeah yeah.

'some new bid for dominance'- okaaaaaay then.

eugh- 'mortal but not fatal'

'HE'S COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY INSANE' 'He is our leader.'

narvinromana :)

'The Gauntlet of Rassilon'- CAN WE BE SO SERIOUS RN.

Ollistra mention again???

Livia you are a politician, you are not a warrior.

oh you ODIOUS man.

Romana :(

the anguish in her voice... she sounds on the verge of sobbing...

her final test...

'a zero booth'- twat.

A TARDIS???

they're war criminals...

'this isn't Gallifrey. Not anymore.'

'I don't have a home'- oh Romana :(

Oh. Mantus that was uncalled for >:(

god these guys suuuck.

Shut the fuck up.

Livia's shaky breathing???

Romana and Narvin running around the TARDIS together :D

cloister bell.

she still has faith in him [the Doctor]

that last line was a bit on the nose lmao.

Good ep. tho! :D

[willowandlily]

finally got round to listening to Renaissance and OH MY GOD?????

bear in mind that while everyone is on the relisten, I am on my FIRST listen!!

I was tryna do a bloody sudoku at the same time but then it got so intense that the pages are now littered with notes, and ima share my thoughts bc otherwise I'll go mad :D

In pretty much chronological order :

"WHAT IS GOING ON IN RENAISSANCE?????"

"I FEEL LIKE I'M LOSING MY MIND!!!"

"Romana your eight is showing babe..."

"THE SUSPENSE?? THE TENSION???"

"WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW???"

"Trey...???!!!"

"I have so many feelings rn!"

"She's so sweet and soft spoken and it's incredibly unnerving..."

"Awww the girlies! <- damn right it's not right!!"

"GIRL WDYM UH OH??"

"there's always a bloody paradox."

"oh she's quite Romana-y now"

"Romana pls don't die yettt."

"Lmao Narvin vs stairs XD"

"SHUSH W/ THE OGRE"

"Temper the schism lmaooo"

"ROMANA" (big scribbly underline)

"SOMEBODY HELP HER"

"Still sarcastic while bloody dying."

"I wasn't feeling it at the start but now Jesus Christ!!!"

"ABOUT TIME TREY!"

"Rugby Tackle XD"

"Oh Leela!!"

"Who is it?"

"Jesus Christ"

"HOLY SHIT"

"Leela's screams I CAN'T TAKE IT"

"I'M GONNA SCREAM... CRY... SOMETHING?!"

"And then the long ass outro like I wasn't just TRAUMATISED."

[willowandlily]

ASCENSION TIME BABYYYY

for context I'm on my first listen, and I haven't had time to listen for ages :/

gonna put a read more thingy so ppl can not read if they don't wanna see, but I made a shit tonne of notes bc OH MY GOD???

(in vaguely chronological order):

[A.N. all changes in size of text are described based on an increase from my baseline handwriting x]

'We're back there??

wait is this the S5 Gallifrey or S3??

what happened to Mathias?

Wait is this what happened when she "died"??

Leela! Poor Trey lol. (She does have a point tho.)

Leela is smart as hell (as always.)

Uh oh...

[Re: "after all this time??"] oh. my. god they MAKE ME SICK

Oh this is horrible, but at least the band is back together?

very much not the turn I was expecting this to take, v. glad nobody spoiled that bit at least.

They're all so sarcastic lmao. and depressed??

CRYPTIC is the word I believe.

That's the question isn't it?

It's all about timing.

Glad she was on our side :)

FUCK OFF ROMANA YOU CANNOT PULL RANK HERE.

GIRL???

So true Leela.

"Hello boys" XD

oh do leave her ALONE PLEASE!!

Oh that sounds like... yes, you guessed it ANOTHER FUCKING SUICIDE PLAN. ROMANA???!!

What's the twist?

(please have a trick up your sleeve Romana!)

WHY? TELL US WHY!! WHERE??

You have got to be kidding me.

"a new dawn"

ROLL CREDITS.

ooh the theme is dark.

I LOVE THIS FUCKING THEME SO MUCH ISTG.

and Trey was such a vibe (unrelated)

now, BTS :))'

FIN

I have to say tho, I will be saving the bonus content bc it is late and I have a fucking 9am (rip my life lol)

But oh my god that was such a good finale???

[willowandlily]

having said to myself I probably wasn't going to write much for Hostiles, here are some things I wrote down while listening:

So many noises lmao. Yappity yap Narvin I'm so glad they're off world now tho. Not Romana snapping straight back into a quasi-doctor/companion relationship. Travelling with the Doctor -> Doctorification. Oh how I love a situation where she can actually usefully use her intellect! Moros-core Jumpy Narvin XD I love them yelling at each other. Old Gallifreyan, fancy. Sassing Narvin lmaoo Who is she? I feel like she's not real/not really alive anymore? Let's go Romana! [of her having been able to use her Coordinator codes] And Narvin surely isn't salty about that anymore. Greenery :) Was he in the explosion or something? Is he keeping her alive? Timelords and their fairytales T-T THE ICONIC QUOTE Oh ffs, yet another war crime. This lot never change. There's something interesting about how Paranoid Romana is on-world, and then all that melts away the second she gets away from her cesspool of a planet. She seems younger, more full of wonder and curiosity, while still remaining herself somehow. (Also her morals seem to come back lmao.) This feels like a Dr Who episode again, but in a good way (obvs). Like it feels like old gallifrey (-Leela :,() Holy Noises T-T He said that in his 'Romana you can't be serious' voice XD 'You almost went without me' / 'I knew you'd catch up'- they make me SICK :D 'Narvin take my hand'- HOLYYYYY OLD DOOR SOUND! :D Names not numbers PLEASE… this live flashback is pretty cool as an image. trying to prick a timelord conscience T-T 'Why?'- oh GOOD premise NARVIN >:( 'bloodbath… blood'- SICK quote. Surely then she CAN'T leave? clippy cloppy footsteps XD Not a villain, not not a villain, and a monster of their own creation is the best kind of monster of the week. 'Narvin's right' :) 'More ladders [Romana moan]' XD Oh yes, Little Miss Suicide says it's a good idea… T-T 'Trust me, I'm a scientist'- ICON Narvin doesn't like heights -> Romana asks for another option. Romana really does get out of breath VERY quickly… [was thinking about disabled!romana] Oh fuck she's gonna die. SILENCE + HEARTSBEAT???! Oh I've heard this clip. THEY MAKE ME SICK!!! The poor thing :,( 'a glorious unimaginable mistake' Oh she's dead. I knew it but I didn't want it to be true :(. Holy scherzo. R.I.P. :( 'It's too late, it was always too late.' I love how recognisable all the noises in the soundscape are- stazers, doors, viewing screen, etc. Oh she's just so sick of losing people :( Oh Narvin :D Romana's breathless little laughs >>>>> Teamwork :) It's SO good to be off Gallifrey again :D

[willowandlily]

things I wrote down while listening to TW2.3 Collateral:

god it's been so long :')

now I know that's spelled 'Ysalus' but it really doesn't sound like it.

How many times can we say 'Ysalus' in five seconds challenge

Romana my baby!

Oh so Ysalus is back. Uh oh. Oh dear.

Bloody war council >:(

'Gallifrey will prevail'- what the fuck???

you guys are really sounding like the goodies btws!!

The Resistance...

Romana ever the pacer

Say what you like about Rassilon but great acting. And Gorgeous acting from Lalla Ward.

Every time a timelord says 'We have no choice', there is 1000% another option.

Livia you do not have that right.

Narvin I missed you :')

You fuckwits are so PREDICTABLE!!!

TELL HIM GIRL :D

how does she know?

ERIS!

Doctor mention??

'God doesn't play dice with the Universe. Rassilon does.'- Einstein, apparently XD

Livia via Romana and Narvin's eyes- I love this kind of politics. Like when Narvin and Leela at the end of the Civil War.

Rassilon: Fantastic orator, fucking CUNT.

I love the background voices of accord/discord

good musical stings in this one as well

very good use of the audio medium here

I love how sarcastic she [Knyla] is :D

Well, historically it can be too late, Eris...

'Save the flirting until after Armageddon.' LMAO

oh Eris is so baby :)

Music is gorgeous

So.. they're just fighting?? To what goal if there's no fixed sides???

LMAO HE REALLY WANTS HER TO SAY 'It's bigger on the inside.'

PREACH GIRL :D

lmao I love that they [Narvin and Romana] are just bitching entre themselves :D

Oh Romana :(

you guys fucking suck.

How about let's not???!

TALK YOUR TALK ROMANA!!! PREACH.

Oh that's very biblical...

[Prime Minister] made up-ass position.

when is she [Romana] ever not furious?

Ysalus really just is a microcosm of the Time War.

Oh Liviaaaaa.

LIVIA FUCK OFF. YOU SUCK.

oh the children :(

CUNTS. TELL THEM ROMANA.

god forbid a girl doesn't want to be complicit in the murder of an entire planet.

this is a fucking great Romana scene.

'This isn't war! This is genocide by superiority complex!'

Fuck off you ARSEHOLE!!! [of Rassilon]

NO. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SAY 'No More'. NOT IN THIS CONTEXT!!!

ofc Narvin will report back.

Talk about putting your job on the line!

OH KNYLA :'(

FUCK...

and then silence.

Oh. that's fucked. That is ACTUALLY FUCKED.

Oh Eris :'(

Eris and Romana <3

Eris the renegade :D

WHAT?

FUCK THE FUCKING IDU AND FUCK THE FUCKING COUNCIL.

that. that was a Fucking Good ep.
