Ok, so it's on page three, before the 20th citation, where [[Paul Magrs (Bafflement and Devotion)|Paul Magrs]] describes the {{sitwell}} as a "very old, imperious Iris, [...] A sagacious arachnid; a grande-dame glittering in a carapace of ebon pearls." I believe this mirrors the description of the {{lesbian novelist}}, and while this is tenuous, you do have to remember how the [[Iris Wildthyme#Sixth Iris|"Katy Manning" Iris]] was initially intended to be the {{reid}}, so the line between incarnations is muddy. <div style="background-color:#0E234E; border: solid 0.5px gold; display: inline; white-space: nowrap;">[[doctorwho:user:Epsilon the Eternal|<span style="background:#0E234E; color:white"><tt>Epsilon</tt></span>]]''' '''[[doctor who:user talk:Epsilon the Eternal|📯]] [[doctorwho:special:Contributions/Epsilon the Eternal|📂]]</div> 14:10, 29 January 2021 (UTC) | Ok, so it's on page three, before the 20th citation, where [[Paul Magrs (Bafflement and Devotion)|Paul Magrs]] describes the {{sitwell}} as a "very old, imperious Iris, [...] A sagacious arachnid; a grande-dame glittering in a carapace of ebon pearls."

: I don't have the quote to hand right now, but I'll see if I can get it shortly. As for Magrs' depictions of sexuality with his characters... well, [[Simon (Enter Wildthyme)|Simon]], in his first appearance in ''[[w:c:whoniverse:Exchange (novel)|Exchange]]'', he was straight, through and through, but in ''[[Enter Wildthyme (novel)|Enter Wildthyme]]'', he's gay, which is a weird contradiction with ''Exchange'', as ''Enter Wildthyme'' is otherwise very consistent with the novel. <div style="background-color:#0E234E; border: solid 0.5px gold; display: inline; white-space: nowrap;">[[doctorwho:user:Epsilon the Eternal|<span style="background:#0E234E; color:white"><tt>Epsilon</tt></span>]]''' '''[[doctor who:user talk:Epsilon the Eternal|📯]] [[doctorwho:special:Contributions/Epsilon the Eternal|📂]]</div> 15:03, 29 January 2021 (UTC) | |||
