The wheel turns
Mar. 17th, 2020 01:42 pmAnxiety levels are still pretty high which... ugh. It meant this morning I was unfocused and unwilling to even open the laptop up to do uni stuff.
Yesterday ended up not going as planned. I wrote, but only a tiny bit. I didn’t watch Clone Wars, because Animal Crossing reviews went live so I watched some of the video ones. It looks so pretty and I really need it. Apparently it’s gonna come by courier Friday so... I’ll be so glad when it’s here,
Last night I did end up continuing to watch the run of season 19. The ep was Kinda and, well, I dunno if it was the anxiety or the story itself but my brain was a bit hopeless with it at times.
There were good parts to it though. Hindle’s decent into madness was well played if a bit... unclear what caused it. And I really liked Todd who was the voice of reason in the dome. The cgi Mara was a vast improvement on the effect seen in the making of. I think it woulda been better if Tegan had been possessed for a bit longer, because once the Mara left her she just went back to sleeping until she was found again (and Nyssa being out of the whole thing was a bit odd).
Next week it’s The Visitation which is something I don’t recall at all.
Tonight I’ll finish off the special features after bake off.
I’m gonna watch Resistance in a few and then get back to finishing this fic.

Some of it is truely excellent - Tegan's mindscape, Hindle's madness, Todd, Panna - while other parts are remarkably uninteresting. I seem to remember hearing or reading that Kinda was written before it was decided to keep Nyssa as a Companion so they had to stick her in the TARDIS for the whole adventure.
