Voice Testing for Romana II, fresh from the Gallifrey Audios

[liberal_gallifreyan]

[Her chin is in her hands and she's got the look of 'I'm going to have to put up with this, aren't I?'. Her tone bears this out.] Do you really have time for this, Lady Mundane? I ask, because I'm certain I don't and I'm the one you've placed in this... timeless community.

I can't leave. I have entire new slave class to restore to freedom and proper rights. As someone who's experience of this sort of work, I can tell you, it takes time, effort and not a small part of your soul to get a society stabilised after a slave revolt.

I'm not the Doctor. [There's no judgement, just an awareness of how the Doctor operates.] And these people, while not of my universe, are still Gallifreyans and I have a responsibility to help them while I can.

[She's deeply sad a moment.] This is not a means for me to martyr myself, I... assure you. After so much destruction, at my hands, I just want to build something.

Besides, what do you think would happen if I left Narvin to his own devices? [He'll get blown up, obviously.]

[That she won't argue. Even though all Gallifrey has given her is strife and war, she still wishes it well. Perhaps even more that she did while she travelled with him and lived in E-Space.]

And what of Earth?

[ninth_doctor]

I... 'Aven't been there since my last Regeneration.

[He doesn't sound like he particularly cares what happens to Earth. Everything is dull without the brilliance of Gallifrey to light his way. Without the sounds of the Time Lords in his Mind to direct his path.]
