forever thinking about how this is romana's last conversation with the doctor
#* ◦ ❝ « 𝘰𝘰𝘤 . the poster's crusade .#of course in the latter years of her presidency she stumbles upon prior incarnations & alternate doctors from other gallifreys#(though for some reason in dark eyes 1 the lord president is some random time lord & romana isn't mentioned)#it's a premonition of things to come & a testament to romana's will & the values the doctor taught her#that she would never allow herself to be corrupted - not even by pandora nor the power of gallifrey's highest office#she only tires of the possibility#of gallifrey itself#& grows as weary of the time lords as the doctor was & had every right to be#could've been some neat foreshadowing towards romana's darker nature manifesting in an incarnation born for war#but that never came to pass in the audios & very briefly in the EDAs (romana iii is in a total of 3 books)#romana ii harbors enough darkness herself i get chills thinking about her enacting vengeance on the daleks in gallifrey (audio drama) 6#lalla ward is great in the role truly i understand keeping her for the time war audios it's amazing how her performance evolves#even in neverland/zagreus she is hardly a starry eyed pupil anymore she's grown into a fierce leader#with the weight of the universe on her shoulders#telling rassilon to buzz off as he asks her to abdicate so that he may take over what a queen#what isn't featured here is her complementing leela & telling this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship (gay)
