Would I Ever Kill Another Time Lord?

[timelady_lost]

Oh yes; I would, and I have. I am not saying I am proud of this fact, but when the need was there, I did what had to be done. Perhaps you are thinking that I killed in self defense, or maybe acted against those who were on a different ideological side from the one that I was on -- and admittedly, that was a large part of the scenario. But causing

Oh Romanadvoratrelundar. I'd tell you not to think like that if it didn't make me a hypocrite.

It's easy to say in platitudes that being a survivor is harder than being a casualty. I hate such platitudes

Yeah, the repairwork thing only lasts you so long.

I can't exactly speak for my future self...maybe it's more of a thing to ask him; I haven't bothered to, yet, and I don't figure I will because he's annoying as hell and I don't think I'd really want to hear the answer anyway...but no. You can't get over it, or past it, or by it. You can bury it, or you could...I dunno, put it aside and get on with your life, because you can't just sit around and brood all day, not with the universe out there still waiting for you. I don't think it's possible. And I don't think it's right, either, when you think about it. I don't know.

Well, I haven't gotten blazingly, blindingly pissed in a good long while. After having gone through bottles of hypervodka before, I think one starts to build up a good tolerance. Still, drinking's good. But it's one of those signs that you're brooding people see. And then they wanna come over and bother you. Must be reverse psychology at work there.

Oh, believe me, at the moment I think the best thing I can do is to stay away from your future self. Not to mention his consort, Aislinn. They felt the full brunt of my temporary insanity, and I'm mortified enough by what I wrought that I'd like to let some time go by before I poke my nose out and attempt to repair things there.

I actually had a decent passing conversation with Rose, however -- I like Rose; she was a good choice on your part.

In any case, if I followed my gut instinct right now, I would be dematerializing away, and crossing my fingers that my repair efforts will get me as far as Varos in order to pick up some Zeiton-7. I'm aware, however, that my recent judgement calls have been idiotic; so I'm going to stick around until I calm down, get some more work done, and can try to reason with a semi-coherent mind.
