[so, Lucy's been hanging out on the Proper Doctor's TARDIS for the last few days after some very unforseen and unexpected events. meaning she's missed a great deal of the hubbub. sadness. but she's here with a purpose! that purpose being an apology]

Diva? I really must apologise. I know we were supposed to have that party, but I was ... indisposed rather suddenly. Do you suppose we could try again? It would be nice to have some proper entertainment.

Lucy.

Harry. [have a hug, Master] Oh Harry, I've missed you.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[he does not hug back]

Where have you been?

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

[frowns and pulls away]

On that dreadful Terre D'Ange planet. The natives have been less than forthcoming where world domination is involved.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

You could've said something. I was worried.

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

I know. I'm sorry. I was too caught up in what I was doing. [touches his cheek] Forgive me?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[grabs her wrist and her waist]

You're not to leave me like that again.

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

[winces a little at the pressure on her wrist, but doesn't pull away]

Of course, Harry. I wouldn't dream of it. Though ... I will be able to finish, right? My work on the planet.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

So long as you tell me before you wander off like that. For now, I want you by my side.

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

That's where I belong, isn't it? Beside you. It's the only place I want to be, Harry. [hugs again, a little uncertainly] And I will tell you. I promise. You'll always know where I am.

[wraps his arms around her, though it's more a grip than an embrace]

Good.

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

[squirms a little because it hurts]

Harry? I don't suppose you might want to take me out...?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

No. You're going to stay with me. In the TARDIS or wherever it is we've landed ourselves. I don't want you out of my sight.

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

Of course, Harry. Can you at least show me around the planet, then? I would ever so like to see where we've landed.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Of course. It's nowhere dangerous, not anymore, anyway.

[he's not letting go of her. Can you spell 'possessive'?]

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

I can handle a little bit of danger, Harry. It might be fun. Thrilling, even.

[sure can! M-a-s-t-e-r!]

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Then we shall.

[Well done!]

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

[and now she's clinging to him, some of her own tension gone at this allowance] Thank you, Harry.

[bows]

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[strokes her hair]

How was your excursion?

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

It would have been better, were I with you. The Doctor is horrible in polite company. But those people aren't nearly as easily manipulated as he led me to believe.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

What did you do to manipulate them?

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

Getting in good with their heads of state. A dance here, a whisper there, a promise on the side. I'm in the process of pitting on great House against another through thinly veiled rumours, but it's all exactly what they expect. It's so frustrating, Harry.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

You'll have to get creative, then, won't you?

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

Mmm. It's more difficult than I thought, but I want to do it. I want so badly to prove I'm capable.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I know you are. Don't let the Doctor lead you astray.
