Commentary meme

Memed from lost_spook:

Pick any passage of 500 words or less from any story I've written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you the equivalent of a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the character's heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the fic, lots of awful puns, and anything else that you’d expect to find on a DVD commentary track.

Or, if you're lucky, commentary from the characters.

Donna: Was I in this one? I don't remember a thing about it.
Ten: Ah. Yes. Well, there's a perfectly good explanation for that...

[Enter Macduff, with his big gun.]

Ninth Doctor / Macduff :
If you want to live, drop your sword.

Turlough / Macbeth :
"No man of woman born." Let me guess.

Ninth Doctor / Macduff [nodding] :
Looms.

Turlough / Macbeth :
Go on, then, get it over with.

Ninth Doctor / Macduff :
Everyone deserves a chance. There's been so much bloodshed already. Why don't you just surrender?

Turlough / Macbeth :
I will not yield,
To kiss the ground before young Malcolm's feet,
And to be baited with the rabble's curse.
Though Birnam wood be come to Dunsinane,
And thou opposed, being of no woman born,
Yet I will try the last. Before my body
I throw my warlike shield. Lay on, Macduff,
And—

[Macduff fires. There is a blaze of light, and then all that remains of Macbeth is a pair of smoking boots.]

The toddlers cheered.

Ninth Doctor / Macduff :
All talk and no do. [Shakes his head sadly.] What a waste.

Because I love TTR!Macbeth all to pieces and Nine!Macduff the most. ^_^
