maybe I do all these things just to make sure you survive (99% open)
[after the news broke that Cabot had been killed, and everyone left the TARDIS to go back to their rooms, Five went straight to the library and hauled a few of his favorite books to the Zero Room. now that he's rested, and no longer in a constant state of 'aaaaaugh', he's been puttering back and forth between the Cloister Room and the Console Room, putting things back in order and rearranging the halls the way he likes them, being careful to leave River's new room where she can get to it - nearby the Zero Room, of course. mutters quietly to the TARDIS as he works on the console]
Well, that was an ordeal and a half, wasn't it? ... Yes, I know, I'm sorry. You have every reason to be cross, but -- No, that WASN'T my fault, I had naught to do with that. And I'm sure not a soul here blames you for it, either. [pats the console] ... Just ... give me a bit to fix this last coupling, and then I'll let you get yourself back together. Then, maybe you can help me with this project for York and Delta, eh? ... I thought you'd like the sound of that.
[ducks back under the console. the TARDIS door is unlocked, now that it's safe, so ... feel free to happen on the striped pants and white cricket trainers sticking out from under the column of the TARDIS. especially if your name is Perpugilliam Brown and you have a bone to pick]
