Oh this is awesome. I love Julian and Holly to bits--especially Julian's tendency to freak out--and it was neat to see the story from someone with even less on an idea of what the hell was going on than Bambera did.

Not to mention that the sampling of UNIT rules functioning as scene dividers are utterly funny and make me want to see the rest of them :D :D

So yeah. I am basically metaphorically dancing around with happy and glee! TO THIS SONG IN FACT. (Just like the Master :D)

Um, and thanks for what you said in the author's notes. You cannot see me here, but I am puffed up from all this praise.

Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed this story so much, and I'm very very glad you like Julian and Holly, because there is a very strong possibility of The Further Adventures Of in the future.

Coming up with the UNIT rules was definitely the most fun part of writing this. Actually, UNIT rule number 39 sprang into my head while reading The Unbearable Weirdness of Being UNIT and it just sort of went from there.

So, yes, thank you for the compliment, and you deserve every bit of the praise. :D

I love the rules and Julian and Holly being completely confused by everything.

The rules were definitely my favorite part of writing. Thanks for the comment, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I rather love the original, and I adore how you've reworked it into something entirely different. Rules for surviving UNIT! I can't help but wonder what the rest of the rules were... (with side orders of Bambera/Ancelyn! *glee* Ancelyn is sneaky and evil!)

[bookblather]

Bambera/Ancelyn is one of my...two? Yes, two Doctor Who OTPs. It is impossible not to ship it. *nods wisely*

The rules inspired this fic in the first place. Rule 39 appeared in my head, and then Julian and Holly appeared, and generally I think I've maybe read "101 Things Skippy is No Longer Allowed to Do in the US Army" too many times, but I am saddened that there is not a UNIT list. Filling the rest of the rules in should be a group project though.

Thanks for the comment, and I'm so glad you liked it!

That was a lot of fun!

[bookblather]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

This is very adorably done; really like the different UNIT rules referenced, and the Bambera/Ancelyn!

[bookblather]

Bambera/Ancelyn is one of those things that you just can't not ship. Thanks for the compliment, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
