And what better, he supposed than to impede on her living space? With her approval, of course -- and, well, even then, he might've just shown up anyway.
When he reached her floor, though, he decided that knocking was probably best.

At the moment she was far much engrossed with what she was reading (there was always something new - or four somethings sometimes - happening every day). That did tend to happen with her. And it would be a habit she would never grow out of either.

"Welcome back." He smiled, though he knew she couldn't see his expression from her angle.

"Thank you, Doctor. It's good to see you again."
It was not often that she spoke with this incarnation, face to face. And frankly, she rarely did see any of his incarnations in person save for whenever there was a disaster going on within the castle---it was certainly nice for a chance to be meeting under kinder circumstances.

He dropped the bag he was carrying by the door, wandered over to where Romana was sitting and leaned against the wall next to it, hands in his suit pockets as he peered at the book, journal and pencils. "What're you up to?"

The fact of her being shorter than him was obvious enough - sitting on the bed with him standing only made her look even smaller in comparison. Looking up at him there was a smile. "And what of you?"

Easing herself up she took the books and pencils into her arms. She carried them over to one of the book cases where she tucked them away neatly on an empty spot of a shelf.

"Would you care for tea or anything?"

"I'd love some tea."

The pot was still hot. With care she poured a cup for each of them, adding the milk and sugar (even the little things like how he took his tea were never forgotten) as well. It was not until she handed one to him did she resume sitting on the bed, legs hidden under her skirt. She sipped her tea once and set it carefully on her lap.
"I was a little surprised by your request," she said thoughtfully. Not that she minded: it was just odd to her for someone to ask to share her room with them for a bit of time. "Is there something wrong with your room?"

He took a breath to answer her, but closed his mouth thoughtfully. There was nothing wrong with his room. It had been stagnancy, to be quite honest, that drove him to ask - though quite frankly he'd been considering the question since April -; Jack had been staying in the TARDIS so often as to have moved back in, but that didn't necessarily mean he always had company. And since the Doctor couldln't go anywhere, had only the boundaries of Paradisa in which to travel...
"No, no. Nothing wrong with it." He sipped at his tea.

There was a faint clink from where the cup met the saucer when she set it down on her lap once more. "Is something bothering you then?" Really now, she couldn't help being curious.
Reply
"I dunno," he began, still avoidantly, taking a sip of tea, "I just wanted a change for a bit, spend some time with a friend."
Reply
She smiled faintly after sipping her tea again. "Well, I am never one to object to company of a friend. It's... rather nice, really. After being away for so long I am glad to see familiar faces once more."
