[have a Rose. My goodness Plane-goers, she's almost as bad as that Doctor with all the hair product (and yes, I do mean House)]

Hold up, that was just a shop.

[looks up and down and around]

I swear, if Mickey's gone and hit the wrong button down there I'll kill him. Soon as I work out what he did. Or work out a way outta here.

[chews on her lip for a moment, lost in thought]

Mickey!

[looks sideways than back to the other side]

If it were Mickey, it's not like he's gonna hear me now anyway. I'll tell you what, if anyone out there can hear me it'd be sorta nice if you'd come out and show yourselves, yeah?

[to herself]

Have to admit, whatever it is, least it's better than Wales.

[and looks around again, hoping she didn't just jinx herself]

Well, let's see... there's talking animals, and people from all kinds of different times and places! Some places have magic and some don't have any at all. There's demons and vampires and I think I've seen some little-g gods around, every now and again! Then there's the twins, and I don't even know what they're supposed to be, but they're a little creepy. And I think there's some royalty around too, but I can't be sure.

Oh! Pleased to meet you! I'm Dorothy, Dorothy Gale. [She offers her hand to shake. :D]

[shewalks-away.livejournal.com]

That's variety right there.

Dorothy Gale? What from the films and books, like?

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

[siiiiiiigh.]

Y'know, people keep sayin' that to me, and it's startin' to get a little aggravating. I don't know anything about any movies or books that might have me in 'em. If somebody wrote a book about me, nobody told me about it.

[shewalks-away.livejournal.com]

[sympathetic/apologetic smile all wrapped into one?]

I guess it would get annoying, yeah. Sorry about that.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

[frown!]

Oh, it's not your fault! I didn't mean to snap atcha, or anything. It's just a little bewildering, is all. I'm used to people talkin' nonsense, but it's usually a nonsense I can understand, y'know?

So how d'you know the Doctor, miss Rose?

[shewalks-away.livejournal.com]

Used to travel with him. Feels like ages ago, been a couple years, at least for me. Don't know what it's been for him. It's all a bit up in the air, being time travel and all.

[concerned]

He looks all right though, taking care of himself, got someone with him, like? He's not on his own, is he?

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Well, that all depends on which Doctor you're talkin' about. The blonde one seems to be alright, usually, an' the one with the ears is okay, he's got his Mickey with him, seems all smiles to me. The ones with the hair, though... well, one's got the Master and his wife and some others, I think, but the other one, he's just been... sad, lately.

[frowning, clearly troubled by that last bit] But you know how he is. Doesn't like to talk about it much.

[shewalks-away.livejournal.com]

The one with the ears? He got a leather jacket, too? He's here? [fond smile, and then rewind] Hold up. His Mickey?

[forgets all this though at the mention of sad Doctor]

Sad? He's on his own?

[looks sad as well at that]

He never talks about anything sometimes. It used to drive me mad. All I wanted to do was help him, and he won't even say that anything is wrong.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he's here. Nice enough guy, not around much, though.

[she shrugs, commiserating]

Best not to force that kind of thing. Just assume he's not alright and try your best to make it better, that's all you really can do. Kinda used to living in his head, you can tell. 'Course, havin' his heart broken don't 'zactly help much either.

[shewalks-away.livejournal.com]

His heart broken?

[quiet for a moment, worried for him]

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Don't know what happened, 'zactly, but you can just tell that sorta thing from lookin'.

[shaking her head, clucking her tongue]

He's a good man. Don't deserve that kinda hurtin'. Don't know why he sets himself up for it in the first place.

[shewalks-away.livejournal.com]

He can't just be on his own. He needs someone to look after him.

[chews on her lip a little, still sad and worried]

He's so lonely sometimes, even when he has someone there beside him. I can't even think about what he's like on his own.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

[sniffs and shrugs]

Seems to be the sort to keep to his own head. Don't blame him, really. But a person like that shouldn't get himself involved in that kind of romantic nonsense. Never ends well.

[shewalks-away.livejournal.com]

Just wish I knew what to do to make him better.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Well, that's the hard part of bein' a friend, isn't it? But I don't think it matters to a person like that, so long as you try. So long as they know you care.

[shewalks-away.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Still, would be nice to actually be able to do something that'd make a difference.
