Sorry to hear you're still feeling under the weather, Obsidian. This thing really seems to take a long time to throw off - hope you get over it soon.

Decide you haven't got it and let it go. (If it happens, so much the better).

Where did she get the graphite writing sticks, or did she pinch them from the Thaarn?

Being Winter doesn't help things. If it persists, as they say, I'll see my doctor.

Dayna always seems so knowledgeable for someone who had such limited life experience before she met this lot. I mean, Justin??

I was going to do that, until my ex-boss told me to spend several days reading up about it and preparing myself. I feel bad about not doing this, and feel bad about (possibly) wasting my time doing it. I cam compromising by taking Monday as a holiday (it is a bank holiday, after all) and preparing. But yes, otherwise I need to let it go, as you say.

I get the impression she has had quite an academic education - and she hasn't actually had a lot else to do.

There isn't an emoji here for 'sympathy'. If there was I'd use it, because I do sympathise. Rotten situation, after the struggle you've had recently. Stick with B7.

I have requested more emojis previously, but it requires Mr. Travisina to have more time to develop them – or more interest in doing so.

One thing I like about Tanith Lee episdoes is the way that they pick up on relationships that were always hinted at and do interesting things with them.

Knowledge, yes, but that wouldn't give her the wisdom to go with it. (She'd be more like Tarrant! Rushing things, over-confident, jealous etc hahaha) I think the part quickly started being written as someone older than they told us she was when she first joined. They forgot. Or it's been years since 'Aftermath'.

The thought that, if I don't get it, my guaranteed income is a bit under £500 a month is worrying in the present circumstances. I can and will probably make more from freelance work, but still . . .

You are right, stick to Blakes 7. It's a nice distraction!

I like what she does, too, much more than I like her books. She's very inventive where she has something to get her teeth into. And, I think, women view things very differently from all the male writers. They pick up on the little nuances.

Finish that novel... ;D

Maybe Travisina hogs the computer.

I love this costume of Dayna's but I imagine it's one of, if not The one, she was referring to back in an old Horizon interview when she said she'd been afraid at times of falling out of her costume.

I do like the relationships in Blakes 7. I know it's because of a varied writing team and general carelessness, but the way relationships are hinted at rather than made clear is very appealing (and leaves lots of room for e.g. fanfiction). In one of the 90s Star Treks, the relationship between Avon and Cally would have been examined, re-eaxmined, spelled out and generally done to death.

This is a haunted house story really, isn't it?

It doesn't look too secure, does it?

Does this help, Anne?

'Your helplessness brings out my sadistic streak'. Nicely observed, I think - although it's not just helplessness, IMO, it's that Vila seems so content to be helpless, and even to stress how feeble he is.

NOW I know what the Alien reminds me of when she raises her arm: the Screen Gems lady with the lamp.
