Sarcasm is an adjusted stress reaction.

Silver Nemesis is quite far from being my favourite Seven story, but it has its moments; Lady Peinforte, the so-stupid-it's-great thing with the gold coins and stupid Cybermen stupidly shooting each other, and Seven and Ace being, well, all Seveny and Acey.

Battlefield is a story I like even while recognising that, on an objective level, it has a hell of a lot wrong with it. Seven and Ace again, and the Brig, and Bambera and Ancelyn, and random Tennyson, and Morgaine and the Destroyer, all make it worthwhile, even if the action bits are kind of rubbish and the story is at times a bit of a head-scratcher.
