[After a long absence since it does tend to get busy in that other universe during this time of year, Rose is finally back on the plane. Her eyes are focused on a small wrapped gift in her hand with a pink bow at the top. She tilts her head curiously wondering what it could be. ]

Hopefully not another chicken leg thing.

[She gives her head a shake and takes a seat still studying the wrapping which is decorated with grey kittens.]

Odd choice for this.

[She gives it a shake close to her ear trying to see if it’ll rattle. Much to her disappointment it doesn’t.]

Wonder what it is...

That wasn't an answer at all!

[pretends to look hurt]

No need to turn to violence.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Now you know how I feel.

[stares at him and attempts to glare and look serious only to fail yet again with half a grin.]

You're just lucky that I don't have my gun.

[handysparehand.livejournal.com]

Oh, well...

[still attempting to keep up the serious face, although he might be failing, too]

And now you're threatening me with a gun. What happened to you, Rose Tyler?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

[Tucks some strands of hair behind her ear finding it hard to keep a straight face when she looks at him, so she looks away.]

I don't know. Think I must have picked up an itchy trigger finger since I saw you last.

[handysparehand.livejournal.com]

[laughs, despite himself]

So it's an itchy trigger finger now. That sounds quite dangerous.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

It can be. Well when there's a weapon around.

[she laughs and then looks around for effect.]

Though I suppose you don't really have to worry about that here.

[handysparehand.livejournal.com]

Luckily there's no - [following that dramatic effect lead, back to looking shocked] - does that mean I have something to worry about when I'm not here?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Maybe.

[Tries to keep her expression serious like she's considered it but laughs instead.]

[handysparehand.livejournal.com]

Now I'm terrified.

[he breaks character with her, and laughs, too]

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

As you should be.

[She can't seem to stop laughing.]

Better be on guard. I'll get you when you least expect it.

[handysparehand.livejournal.com]

[laughs]

You'll hunt me down like an animal! I don't stand a chance.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Well maybe not so much like an animal but they'll be lots of running involved I'm sure.

You might not then again you might with as brilliant as you are.

[handysparehand.livejournal.com]

Of course there'll be running.

[scratches the back of his neck, smiling]

Well, I am rather brilliant.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

That you are.

[She just smiles for a second]

And that's what scares me. You could come up with something just like that and turn the tables on me.

[handysparehand.livejournal.com]

I could, couldn't I?

[grins]

The only problem is, once that happens you'll come up with something just as brilliant and turn the tables again. It seems like quite the vicious cycle.
