45 // The City is being its usual ridiculous self

[neverendingbeat]

There's some sort of atmospheric disturbance--which doesn't make sense because there's no proper atmosphere. Obviously, the City is rarely logical so I'll just assume it's some sort of cute curse again or. Perhaps the City is finally falling to pieces. Is everyone set for that? Last plans in order? Method of escape finalised?

Of course, this is only

Oh me of little faith. Here I was thinking you'd come up with the earthquakes and light show just to get out of dinner.

Kidding.

If these quakes keep getting closer I might.

How do you feel about a pony sized wimpy dog who is currently hiding under my table?

Pony-sized dog is alright, as long as he doesn't mind cats. Masha doesn't mind dogs.

I'll prepare for your arrival. This is why you always do all your shopping the day before. I'd imagine the shops are a nightmare.

I'm 98% sure he'll be terrified of Masha. He'll probably find something to hide under and do it.

Okay. I'll be there in a little while. Unless the roof comes down on me and then I'm either going to show up sooner or I'll be stuck under a beam. Do not leave me stuck under a beam.

Well, I'd hardly let something as small as THAT stop our dinner from occurring. I'll keep an eye on the clock.

There was no roof falling or beams to get stuck under. In fact there was only a pony sized black and white Newfoundland that had to be convinced the sky was not going to fall on him.

"Should have named you Chicken Little."

She finally arrives though, dog leash in hand, dog wrapped around her legs in the most pathetic way possible and wearing a yellow mini dress. Yes there's an earthquake and the world might be ending but Lucy has on nice shoes. It's an obsession with her. She knocks on the door then lets her hand fall back down to Bryant's head.

"Also, should have given you a valium before we came," she grumbles at the dog. Not that she has valium.

The Master unlocks the door and opens it, smiling at Lucy and raising his eyebrows at her dog. He's wearing a suit again, all black as usual.

"Hello," he says cordially, "come in, sit down. Will your dog want anything?" He steps aside from the door. "I ask because I already have wine and little canapé spinach-y things for you. I'm afraid I didn't plan for earthquakes and an additional visitor."

A great big smile spreads over Lucy's face when the Master answers the door. "A bowl of water and he'll be fine. I've been baby feeding him all day trying to get him to come out from under my table." She managed to shuffle inside, the dog trying to remain wrapped around her legs then stops past the door beside Harry.

She goes up on her tiptoes, kneeing the dog out of her way and puts her hands on the Master's shoulders to balance herself while she leans in and kisses him on the cheek. "You look hot and spinach-y things sound great. And thank you for letting me bring the giant baby. His name is Bryant."
