[There isn't actually anything in the frame as of about four seconds into the start of the feed, as he lost interest in the time it took to turn on and look into the device. There is, however, a semi-conspicuous pile of empty wrappers barely visible.]

[Rose was in the bedroom putting on a costume to hand out candy in. She'd thought the pound of candy she'd left on the counter was safe. She comes out of the room still pinning her hair up. She's got the Doctor's glasses perched on her nose and she's wearing one of his spare suits. Admittedly it doesn't fit her exactly the way it fits him. She's got a screwdriver (a regular one) tucked in the front pocket.]

Doctor, would you get the big bo--[And that's where the request stops because there's a pile of empty candy wrappers.] Seen the candy I bought to hand out to the trick or treaters?

[am_i_being_rude]

[Nothing is safe.

He pops around a corner, already halfway through this series of sentences:] Get the big what? Big ball? Big balloon? Big bouncy balloon ball? What are you doing in my suit? Bit big for you. Or, long. D'you want the blue one? Big blue suit. I mean really you'd be fine in either it's just that I'm wearing this one at the moment and it's not quite tailored for two. [Breath.] What did you say?

[iam_thebadwolf]

[The ramble without breathing is evidence enough to answer her question. He's seen the candy and eaten it. All.] I'm you for Halloween and s'all right. M'already in this one. [She looks down to make sure there's no popping out of it. She's got the suit jacket buttoned up and it's a touch tight across the chest. Not too bad though.] Bowl. The big bowl for the candy I bought to give out to the kids.

[am_i_being_rude]

Is it Halloween? [Suddenly very excited. There's no particularly good reason, given that he could normally have the holiday consistently and it doesn't actually have a whole lot he normally goes for. Aside from big bowls of candy.] You are! It looks good! Molto bene. I haven't seen a big bowl of candy innnnnnnn... About twenty-five minutes. I did see a dwindling bowl of ca- what kids?

[iam_thebadwolf]

[She doesn't want to grin at him. He ate all of the candy she bought and yet she can't help herself. He's practically the kid right now.] Yeah, it's Halloween. S'pose I should have said somethin'. You could have dressed up too. [She spins in a bit of a circle to let him have a look at the whole outfit and then fixes him with a look.] Trick or treaters? Little kids come knock on your door and ask for candy. Earth thing I s'pose.

lmao the icon

[am_i_being_rude]

I don't think I could have fit into your clothes even with advance warning. Would have had to go into your room for that anyway and I don't do that. And that's very much an Earth thing, I just don't know of many kids here. You must be seeing more of them. Maybe it's a height thing. Oh! [He ducks back around the corner and then returns with something that looks suspiciously like bits of one of the small kitchen appliances that is no longer in the kitchen.] I've been making things! Well, I've made several things but I had to keep taking bits of them apart again for the new things. So there aren't many of them.

:D

[iam_thebadwolf]

[Rose laughs a little at that.] I meant another costume but no, probably not and I don't mind you goin' in my room y'know. Oi! hey, not that short. [Compared to him, yes she is. She tilts her head to the side, looking at the bit of something he's brought in. Good thing she doesn't really use the kitchen appliances.] What's it do?

[am_i_being_rude]

Who else should I have dressed up as? [That is actually sort of a vaguely legitimate question. He's spent quite a long time being both himself, and a series of fractalled versions on the same individual, so the idea of dressing up as someone entirely different and effectively tossing that aside for a while, even frivolously, is a bit odd.] You don't? Because we haven't been. Sort of you-shall-not-pass type personal zones, just without the giant fire monsters and the wizards and the death and all the other bits. [He basically just giggles a little at her offense taken to the height thing. And then moves on. When she expresses interest, however slight, in the thing, he comes closer so she can see it better.] Well it's mostly got parts from the gravitical sway-maker and the particle brake I made earlier - ...and, the- the toasting oven - but specifically this is a friction reaccumulating warp threshold instigator. [And then beaming. And then] Here, hold this, I have another. [Pushes it into her hands, dashes out, comes back with

lol the ramble is awesome and impressive

[iam_thebadwolf]

[She ponders that a moment.] We can always toss a bedsheet on you for a toga and call you Greek. Oooor lots of spandex and make you a super hero. [That gets a bit of a giggle out of her because all the spandex and the idea of him 'pretending' to be a super hero.] Get you some extra hair to glue all about and some fangs for a werewolf?

[She shrugs a bit at the suggestion that their rooms are big personal spaces. She does treat his as that and will probably always consider his room a place she needs permission to go into but she's less possessive of her own space.] Not really. S'not like you're goin' to go in there to snoop 'round through my knickers or see if I keep a diary.

[Her protest about her height is giggle worthy. She's not terribly short for a woman but she's not considered tall either. Probably about average. His giggle makes her stick out her tongue at him briefly. She takes the warp threshold instigator and tucks it into her pocket. She figures it's a fair prop in any case.]We'll have to get some green beans and green

thank you. it is all of the thoughts i have while writing written down

[am_i_being_rude]

I'm already a super hero. Spandex toga would be a terrible idea though; look like a ghost that's out-grown its own ectoplasm force-field. Not sure my sheets are the right colour anyway. Could be fun though - you remember that werewolf? That big old house, all that running. Chase each other around the place - flat's not as big but I reckon we could still work it out.

Have you got one? [Minor backtrack and red. This feels like it might not have needed clarification prior to a couple of months ago.] I mean, a diary. I know you've got the other things. Not that I would go a-snooping either way - just sort of cheating, really. And it only ever gets people angry with you. Particularly if you're not good at it

That makes the migraines more understandable

[iam_thebadwolf]

[She giggle snorts at that.] So you wanna chase me 'round the flat? [There may be some flirty teasing going on there.] M'gonna have to pin up the pants first. [She extends one leg so he can see just how long the pants are on her, pooling around and over her feet.]

Diary? Yeah. Don't write in it every day though. Just sorta when I remember to. I know you wouldn't snoop. That's why I wouldn't mind you bein' in there.

Yeah, Star Trek. Mickey used to watch it so I only paid a bit of attention.

lol, headaches from sheer volume of thought traffic

[am_i_being_rude]

[He glances down at her ankles.] That could easily make running very difficult. Ought to see what you can do about fixing that before you go chasing werewolves around your flat, I think. Or, well, I guess it would be the werewolf doing more of the chasing. I know I didn't chase the werewolf very much so if you want to be me in any way approaching accurate then -- Mickey watched Star Trek? [For some reason that is surprising.]

I hadn't quite figured you for writing. Then again I hadn't quite figured Mickey for a Trekkie. You lot do love being multi-faceted. I think a little attention challenged every now and then, but unfailingly interesting a majority of the time. And I would know time. [Overly amused with this.] Was that actually all the candy you had or is there more somewhere? [Looking over her shoulder a bit as though she just has some hidden behind her.]

Makes sense to me!

[iam_thebadwolf]

[She puts one foot on her knee and balances there while she rolls up her pant let then switches and rolls up the other one.] All ready for runnin' now. [She shrugs at his revelation] Yeah. He was always goin' on 'bout the technology and the computer bits.

Just sorta somethin' I started doin' to keep track of what was happenin'. [She pokes him lightly.] Oi, you're one to talk 'bout attention challenged. [She smirks and rolls her eyes.] I've got another bag in my room. Mostly chocolate. [She was going to save it but she'll get more tomorrow and half off.] Be right back.

[And she disappears into her room to retrieve the bag of candy then returns holding it up in one hand.]

[am_i_being_rude]

[That is a handy trick. If I did that I would instantly fall over, and I seriously doubt the Doctor can do it either.] Well, I s'pose that makes a bit of sense with how quickly he picked up on all that computer stuff. Remember that? Downing street? Buffalo, UNIT uses, password for everything - nothing interesting particularly about it, just... Buffalo. Did you know you can make a whole sentence out of just that word? 'Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.' It's got three different meanings, so technically you've taken care of all necessary sentence parts by just repeating it over and over. You don't actually need all of them; you can just say 'Buffalo!' the once and it'll work. Fun bit of language. I like the other one as well, 'That that is is that is not is not is that it it is,' though it doesn't work as well since you can actually say the punctuation while you're speaking it.

[Speaking of attention challenged... He's gone back around the corner and returned with another small device by the time she

They're going to end up on a sugar high chasing each other around the flat

[iam_thebadwolf]

[It takes practice. Possibly a lower center of balance thing. Also, Rose is mostly just going to blink at the Doctor's ramble about language.] Any chance of gettin' the TARDIS back here to translate that? [She's teasing him, really. She pulls the candy back though.]

Decision time. We goin' to eat it all or we goin' to share a bit with the kids?

ten has no objections to this in the state he's presently in

[am_i_being_rude]

Well, she probably still could, yeah, but it would come out just the same. Well, maybe. She's a bit.... thinky, lately. Not sure. But it was Engl-- you knew that, you were playing, right.

[He mournfully watches the candy recede from him and then looks at her when she starts talking.] Share? Ki-- OH! Right. Halloween, you'd said. Right. Well. I don't know of too many kids so I guess it won't hurt to try and share some. But can I have some more now?
