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 ( Read more... )

fifth doctor, peri brown

[of course, now that the whirlwind of the past several weeks has wound down, Peri has had ample time to appreciate everything that has happened to her, and not all of it is sitting well. she's still staying in the TARDIS, though for how much longer she's not sure. thus she appears at the inner door to the console room, and watches him work for a minute with a faint look of amusement]

You're talking to yourself, Doctor.

cricketycricket July 30 2009, 20:53:48 UTC

No I'm not. I was talking to the TARDIS. [finishes with the coupling, closes the console up, and pokes his head out from under it, pleasantly]

And now I'm talking to you!

[slight chuckle and scoff] You're acting like the TARDIS can actually hear you, silly.

[is attempting to appear calm and casual but is failing by the unconscious wringing of her hands. she takes a step or two into the console room] What are you doing, anyway?

cricketycricket July 31 2009, 02:33:18 UTC

Of course she can hear me. [rolls his eyes a little, as he gets to his feet] I was reconfiguring the TARDIS hallways back to the way they were, before. Making sure everything was back in order. [and he's totally oblivious to the hand-wringing]

[Heard that!]

Appreciate it, Doctor.

cricketycricket July 30 2009, 21:12:59 UTC

As I've said, York, any time. ... You sound as though you're feeling better!

encryptedlock July 30 2009, 21:15:59 UTC

Getting there, anyway. Doesn't do any good to just mope around, right?

cricketycricket July 30 2009, 21:17:37 UTC

Precisely! And they'll all be back, soon enough, safe as houses, right as rain.

[knock knock]

...Anyone home?

[steps in even as he asks, and spots...someone. Or, part of someone, anyway.]

[clears throat]

[sits up so quickly he hits his head] Ow--! ... [ahem] Oh, it's you. ... [oh for crying out loud, not the kid who wanted to muck around in the TARDIS workings, just as he's gotten it fixed]

Hello.

[OH HAY DOCTOR. There's a River, right there. I no rite, she's sneaky, isn't she? LIKE AN ADORABLE NINJA.]

Hi.

cricketycricket July 31 2009, 18:14:46 UTC

... River! Hello. [peeks out] All moved in, already, are you?

ninjasinspace July 31 2009, 18:24:52 UTC

Got pillows. The fluff to firmness ratio is ideal.

[SHE LOVES THIS PLACE, MAN.]

cricketycricket July 31 2009, 19:45:07 UTC

Isn't it just, then? [grins] I'm glad you're comfortable. Is there anything I can help you with?
