I have finally seen (most of) the last two episodes of Torchwood (and jfsjfs you are officially a scamp) but I thought I'd cut-tag this as there are mahoosive spoilers below:

Spoiler Alert )

In other news, I've recently been trying my hand at writing a sonnet and am finding it probably the hardest piece of writing I've ever done. Although by no means a stranger to tight syllable and rhyme schemes, there's something about iambic pentameter that is driving me batsh*t. I had a flash of inspiration at 4am (just when you need it *sigh*) and was up till 5am scribbling away in a notebook. In total, my nocturnal emissions amount to six lines and the final couplet (so eight lines in total) ... only six more to go ... wonder when the muse will strike for them?

A Winter Sonnet

Well, the sonnet's finally done, though only suicideallysuicideally and s0bs0b will likely catch all the references. On the offchance that you're not the least bit interested in poetry, I've hidden it beneath a cut-tag ... reading it is not mandatory by any means. The more observant/suspicious among you may correctly guess that I am being terribly sad by writing a poem about cross-country pantomime.
