[the Doctor appears, holding a yellow rose in a crystal vase. He's not entirely certain where this came from, but he's got a few ideas]

I'm not the Valentine's Day sort.

Rather unpleasant day to be celebrating, though, isn't it? Poor Valentine. Got his head chopped off for marrying lovers against his Emperor's wishes.

[sigh] And at the time, I had planned on making it a romantic trip.

[comes up behind him, shaking his head] You know, I've never thought of the day quite like that. But it seems like somebody- [but he stops short, gripping the crystal vase in his hand tightly so as not to drop it when he realises who he's talking to. someone who looks like Arthur but wears suits...] ...Doctor?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[grins madly] It's you!

[oliverplus]

[stares at him] Yeah, it's...I mean, it's you! [laughs, not really sure how to react. steps over toward him, grinning now] It is, isn't it?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Well, more or less. You recognize me, then?

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

Found yourself a secret admirer? Who is she this time? Certainly isn't some cavewoman, not with that vase.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Well, my natural charms must've attracted the attention with someone...with a taste for crystal, I suppose. Wonder how they found my post.

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

You got that in the post? [frowns, perhaps a little jealous, even.] I didn't find anything in mine. [not that her granddad can send her anything in the post, but still.]

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Really? [makes a mental note to pop back in the past and send her something]

Probably someone being...I don't know. Rude, I wouldn't be surprised. I've garnered quite a few enemies in this place.

[thinks: eh? another Valentine's Day? of all the luck...]

Ohhhh? A trip to where? Venice? Paris? New York City?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Well, I was trying to go meet the man himself. Unfortunately, we ended up landing a bit wrong.

Poor Tegan. I don't think she ever forgave me.

[maturelildevil.livejournal.com]

[he frowns, making a face at the man's words.] What did you do, land on him?

[actually, now that he's scrutinising the man's wardrobe, he remembers a conversation about his clothing--or rather a passing mention.] Wait a minute...I think I heard about you.

[everybody-lives.livejournal.com]

Never plan those things, Doctor. You should know better by now.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Well, it was a long while ago. Trying to impress a girl, you know how I can be.

[everybody-lives.livejournal.com]

Only the girls this time, then? We really should have a chat about androids.

[River is just... distracted by the pretty yellow rose, sorry, Ten. Which is to say: leaning over a little for a proper, tilted view of it! ...Yes, this is necessary.

And strange-looking.]

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[looks at her awkwardly, then offers up the flower for inspection]

[bytwo.livejournal.com]

[She takes it very gravely, and runs her fingers along the edges of it.]

It's shiny.

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

{holding hers}

...You got a rose too?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[sniffs]

I suppose we're meant to be valentines, then?

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

Maybe. It's not Valetine's Day for me, though, so it's a surprise.

{smiles a little} It's nice, though. I haven't gotten flowers in a long time.

[fff. I've been so busy lately, you don't mind if I backtag, do you? D: IF YOU DON'T, Dorothy's on the plane too, and she's got an identical yellow rose, although she's taken it out of the vase for ease of carrying. Previously she had just been moping around with it, in a sort of maudlin contemplation. Her eyes are red; if one didn't know better, one might think she'd been crying.]

You too, huh? Funny.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

We're not the only ones.

I wonder why we were picked.

[roseoflegend.livejournal.com]

Oh, how pretty.

[never mind that by now she should have been gone from the plane..yeeeah, we know how well Rose listens and just how much of a stubborn thing she can be. also, late!tag is..all right? :D?]

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

It's not bad, is it?

[roseoflegend.livejournal.com]

No, far from it, really. It's lovely.

[she tilts her head to get a better look at the rose.]

For someone special, then?
