Anyone have use for an xbox 7900d?

I'm not sure which is worse: someone with no knowledge tickering about with technology, or someone with an inkling who gets in over his head. I do so hope he hasn't tried tinkering with me, Doctor. You know how much I hate that.

You're off-limits, don't worry.

Good. So long as he listens. You do have a habit of picking up companions who aren't the most obedient lot.

They wouldn't be interesting otherwise.

I beg to differ, Doctor. I'd like to think my temperament makes everything as interesting as needs be.

[has to stifle a laugh] You're fantastic. Really. But that's no reason to go taking on dull passengers.

[grins in response, the cheeky thing] I know I am, Doctor. You can continue to tell me, though. At any rate, if you must take on companions, you could at least make sure they aren't annoying. I should like more Brigadiers or Nyssas or Turloughs. Perhaps even another Sarah Jane, as much trouble as she got into. Adrics would be nice. I could deal without the Tegans and Peris, though. Honestly, Doctor, I wonder about your sanity sometimes with these companions.

I'll keep that in mind.

Oh, but Tegan was sweet! [pause, grimacing] In her way. Same for Peri, even if she had to question every little thing I-- Anyway, she was a good girl. Both of them were.

Good.

[shakes her head and smiles] I suppose so, Doctor. At any rate, they cared for you a great deal, and you for them, much to my chagrin. But they did make you happy. I can't very well fault them for that, can I?

I'd hope not.

... I never did give you a hug in all that confusion last time, did I?

[blinks, surprised] Ah...no, I don't believe you did, Doctor.

We should correct that then. [grins, holding out his arms]

[grins, then gives him a hug, petting his back and running her hands through his hair because she's obsessed like that]

[and if this were anyone but the TARDIS he would've ran far, far away - but instead he continues to hug her for a bit before disentangling himself]

You're the only companion who's not going anywhere. Cut the others some slack, yeah?

[gives him a look, as if to say she wasn't finished hugging, but nods, a playful smile on her lips] I'll do my best, Doctor, but only because you asked so nicely.

[affectionate pat on the head] That's my girl.
