Don't feel too bad, I totally have conversations with people in my head. And the worst part? Sometimes I refer to them, forgetting that they didn't actually happen. *shifty eyes* oops.
I has an Ecstatic Primeval Stare! Yays! This is more fun than the actual conversation, which went something like this: Kaylie: Oh, look, here's a hair. Steph: (examines it) I think it's mine.

I made notes in the margins." Companion: "But-- no, my citation's fine! You think I don't know MLA format by this point? Look, I've got the handbook right here!" Doctor: "Ah, but MLA format is highly inappropriate for this field of research. You should have used Standard Academic Dalek format." Companion: "But--But--" Doctor: "I'm afraid that due to your recent appalling performance, I simply cannot reward you with a trip to the set of Pirates of the Caribbean." Companion: D:
