Authors note- Ok so I’m known for two things amongst my friends. My h/c and my descriptions. So here’s me taking a walk on the wild side due the my sudden urge to do some prompting! (hmm can I use that in this context? Ah well!) Its sort of.... Ah, read it and you’ll see what I mean.
“Pick a star.”
“What?”
“Pick a star, any star.”
“Why?”
“Come on...”
“Okay, okay, don’t whine at me! I pick ...that one.”
“Mmm good choice.”
.....
“So?”
“So what?”
“Are you going to tell me what planet I picked? The one that made your face go all dreamy.”
“Ohh that.”
“Yes, that. And you know you’re doing it again!”
“Sorry ...That my dear Ianto is Raxacoricofallapatorius”
“I should have known.”
“What?”
“You visited it with him didn’t you?”
“I suppose you could call it that.”
“You weren't visiting?”
“We we’re delivering a criminal that had just tried to destroy earth and sell it as scraps as an egg, if you can call that visiting.”
“Oh,”
“Yea.”
“If it makes you feel any better, I’m sure you did it heroically, like you always do.”
“Mm your a charmer Mr Jones.”
“ I could say the same about you, sir.”
“Now, don’t start on the sir or I might have to jump you right here.”
“Wouldn’t be the first time you’ve shagged me on a roof,”
....
“Jack?” “
Yea?”
“What's it like?”
“What’s what like?”
“Being on a different planet, you know like, different ground underneath your feet. What does that feel like?”
“You want the truth?”
“Of course,”
“Its amazing, like nothing you could imagine. It just makes the adrenalin pump through your veins. The novelty never wears off, every planet you go to still gives you that feeling in the pit of your stomach, its more than words can say. I wish there was some way I could show you”
“You never know, a rather handsome Doctor of yours might come again, I’m sure he wouldn’t be averse to have two gorgeous men on board.”
“I’m sure he wouldn’t, but still I’d rather he didn’t appear for a while, he always seems to have trouble close by.”
“That's for sure,”
“And after all, this is kinda nice isn’t it? No rift spikes, no planets in the sky, just us, together, completely alive and safe, at least for a a while.”
“Well then, here’s to being alive.”
