Ninth drabble for the [livejournal.com profile] doctorwho_100 challenge.

I am now connected to the internet in my flat (*happy dance*) so ... well, nothing much'll change in regard to my fics, I guess - I've been managing to keep up a fairly regular updating schedule despite my lack of net, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] sellars88 being so hospitable every week :o) Thanks Adam!

Anyway, enjoy the fic and let me know what you think. Also, Tegan and Romana have no comments and they're feeling left out (hint hint) :o)

The colours light up the shore, turning the pale sand into glowing embers. Even the Doctor’s hair gets the fiery treatment; his curls have turned into a flaming halo. She tries not to smile too obviously as she walks beside him.

He nods towards the colourful skyline, saying intelligently, “Red sky at night, shepherd’s de- Is it shepherds? Or is it sailors? I can never remember…”

Evelyn chuckles, shakes her head, gazes out towards the horizon. She has to admit, he was right: there’s nothing quite like a stroll along a Mediterranean beach while the late summer sun is setting.

*is furious* LJ just ate another comment!

Another one with some lovely colour imagery in it. Also I now want to walk along the beach. It's so hot!

Oh, is it being stroppy again? It kept doing that to me the other day.

Thanks :o) Yep, more imagery - I like my imagery because it's not something I always do consciously, sometimes it just happens.
And lucky you having warm weather - it's bloody freezing this half of the world! Beach-walking would not be fun right now, it would be wet and shivery - and treacherous, given how dark it is :o)
