Why this must be read:
This is an absolutely delightful bit of banter between Four and Romana II. It's charming and completely in character, and it never fails to make me smile.
She picked at her bunch of roses. "They'll just attract those little insects that buzz and stab you."
"You're supposed to be grateful," he sniffed.
"Grateful that you've made me a target for angry insects?" She flicked her hair back the way she did when she was starting to get irritated. "Honestly, Doctor, sometimes I just don't understand you." She looked thoughtful. "Do I have to buy you flowering plants as well?"
"Women don't have to. It's one of those gendered gift-giving rituals."
"Why?"
"I don't know!" He rubbed the side of his nose. "You can if you want to. It's just that people might think we were strange."
Romana looked at the people walking past them, comparing the way they were dressed to the way everyone else in the park was dressed. She looked at K-9 and at the fact that all the other dogs seemed to be organic. "I can't possibly imagine anyone thinking we were strange," she lied.
