At the Bottom

[River is sitting in the kitchen with a mug of tea. She's got both hands wrapped tightly about it, and is giving the vague impression that it is not warmth she seeks - but answers. Steam is curling upwards like fog]

Idiot.

[Her journal rests nearby]

Oi, I resent that.

I've been downright clever lately.

Well, when it comes to certain people, it is. Like the Master. Always about me with the Master. And Simon Cowell. But he's rather angry about everything, isn't he---

[oh, she's a serious River] Any particular idiot I might know?

Well, only on occasion, from what I've noticed. Mostly because of emotions, but you're only human.

[he moves to sit near her]

[looks away]

No, I suppose not.

But your mind still is.

[faintly amused] I can tell you're trying, though.

[the amusement fades, replaced with concern] What happened?

[laughs, because this is a joke, right?]

No, really.

[Oh.]

Well. That's---

[and cue confusion] Isn't Dr. Moon just a template for the actual moon above the Library, though? Does he even know how to---

[Also in the kitchen is Ai but she's having a little trouble getting what she needs. Which is why she can be seen pulling one of the kitchen chairs across the floor towards the cabinets so that she can get herself a mug.]

I really need to remember to bring a step stool here...

[Stopping in mid-drag --it really is bothersome being so little-- Ai looks over to her.]

I wouldn't mind some help, thank you.

Earl Grey, please. With a little milk.

[she just nods as she pulls herself up onto the chair]

Thank you. It's difficult trying to get around when this place isn't exactly set up for kids.

[happens to be passing by when he hears; glances at her with sympathetic amusement] Anyone in particular?

[understanding nod] You're often the best person to talk sense into yourself. Provided you're not overly harsh...
