[Lucy has decided to take a break from Diva's party and is hanging out on the Plane in this dress that Diva gave her. she's got a glass of wine in hand and a somewhat longing expression on her face as she looks at the stars surrounding her, humming a waltz quietly under her breath]

I didn't. I still don't. [looks away] I never wanted to go to you, Doctor. I simply had nowhere else to go.

[nods, looking at her] Neither did I.

[still won't look at him] It didn't mean anything, you know.

Nothing at all?

Nothing. [a long pause, then] Did you want it to?

[glances up at her] It doesn't really matter, does it? If it didn't matter to you. But it did, yeah.

I'm curious, that's all. [fiddles with her skirts and her hair] It isn't important, I just wanted to know.

[sighs; here comes honesty!] It does matter. Because you kept me company. Sometimes it even felt like we were friends. [shrugs a little] Maybe you don't believe me. But I don't want you hurt.

Well we weren't. Aren't. [looks away again] I despise you. I don't need your protection. And I certainly don't need your kindness.

[softly] I know. But think about it this way, then? The Master wants you safe. He doesn't want you to get hurt in what we're doing. And there's a very good possibility you could, so we all need to be careful.

No, no, I suppose you're right... [fists her hands in her skirts] If anything happens to him, Doctor, I... I...

[he knows it's not going to be a much appreciated gesture but he puts a gentle hand on her arm] I won't let anything happen to him. I promise.

[flinches at the touch and pulls her arm away] You will understand if I don't place much weight in your promises, Doctor.

[nods a bit, letting his hand drop to his side] But you think I want him for myself. So you should think, at least, that I won't let any harm come to him if I can help it.

...I suppose. [focuses on the 'stars,' expression blank] You will take me with you? I want to see the stars...

[gives a slight nod] Just...if we tell you to hide or stay somewhere, you have to. This is really dangerous, Lucy.

I know that. I'm not stupid. [huffs, then calms herself and looks away] I just want to be useful to Harry again, Doctor. So very useful...

[sometimes she creeps the Doctor out] I know. The best thing you can do is to stay safe. He's going to need to focus on this task. Best not to worry him, eh?

[good, that means I'm doing my job] Hmmm? No, no, of course not. I don't want to worry him. Never that. You must do the same, Doctor. No meddling. Don't ruin his plans like you did before. Promise me.

[You always do your job!] Trust me, we're working together on this. I'm not ruining anything.

[I'm quite efficient!] Good. That's good. [takes a deep breath and smiles wanly at him] I'll trust you, then. This time. Do not disappoint me.
