Reading the Middle English canon is much more interesting when you're simultaneously scanning it for saucy material to use for unsavoury purposes. It's not my fault de Loris and Chaucer were members of the First Curch of Perv.

It's a Doctor Who fic. In Middle English. This is one of the best things ever. There needs to be more like this. You are a genius and I bow before you.

M.E. texts are nothing if not stuffed full of Bible references, and I am nothing if not stealing massively from said texts.
