Very funny! And a nice dig at saying sorry too often, it annoyed me too.
Wonderful! I love when the Doctor acts like a big baby cuz... well, he is in so many ways. And Four is quite the baby. Xllnt dialog, and great jokes!
Re-read this story for the first time in a long time, loved it even more and couldn't believe it hadn't been Calufrax'd already. So here you are:

"When you were born they threw away the mold." "It wasn't really MOULD..."
This story has an incredibly high density of brilliant one-liners. It's like Abbott and Costello in here.
Yay!
1979 was a really good year for you, am I right? But I do have a nitpick - doesn't 'scarcely' have a 'c' in it? I *knew* I'd get you on something...
I love sulky!Four and superior!Romana; you get their dynamic just right. So many great lines in this; I particularly like when she inquires about whether monogamy is catching. ;)
Your wit and your ability to pace speech and bon mots is breath-taking. Every so often, you make me snicker out loud: " ... Charming woman, very impressive thighs." I don't believe I've ever been disappointed after reading anything of yours!
