(SUMMARY: The new writer in town can't find a name for her Muse. DISCLAIMER: This Time Round belongs to Tyler Dion, and Doctor Who belongs to the BBC. MizWrite [Mizzy for short] and the new Muse belong to me.) -- I NEED A NAME Well, this was new. Adric had seen authors and Muses before, that was correct. He had seen them in all sorts of situations, and had kind of stopped getting surprised over time about it. But an author asking HIM to name her Muse? "Aren't you a writer?" he asked the new girl. "Well, yeah, I am. But I stink at names. So does my Muse." The aforementioned Muse made a small wave, smiling shyly. Adric shrugged. "How's Breelora?" "Sounds weird." "I think it's nice," the Muse interjected. "Breelora. Has a nice ring to it." "I don't," grumbled Mizzy. "I much prefer Kalandra Salome. Means 'beautiful peace'." "Hey, you just threw together two names from different languages!" "So?" "How's Breelora Perpetua Isadora?" Adric sighed. "It looks like you two already are coming up with names." "We are?" the Muse asked, eyes twinkling. "Throw in Kalandra Salome and you've got a name!" "Alright! Breelora Perpetua Isadora Kalandra Salome! Bree for short." Bree grinned at Adric. "You're a pal!" The two girls strolled off, and the clock struck the end of Adric's shift. -- YOU HAVE TO ADMIT, SHE'S GETTING VERY CREATIVE. "You think?" Adric stared at his body, hanging from a tree. "She's probably watching CSI a lot. Torture, then hang from a tree." Death shrugged. YOUR CARD? "Here." Punch. "Hey, thanks for putting up with me." DON'T MENTION IT, PAL. Fin -- "All right! I confess, I confess. I confess to your being a bigger idiot than I thought." - Fourth Doctor, "The Deadly Assassin" MizWrite
