[you all remember that chunk of beach the Doctor dragged up to the astral plane, don't you? Of course you do! Well, he's standing at it. In the snow. Yes, there's snow. The water is still lapping up on the shore but the sandy beach is mixed with snow. Most of the snow is gathered around the palm trees. The trees themselves have multi-coloured orbs of light floating gently around them.

The Doctor, for the record, is in his blue suit with the long brown coat on and there's a set of wrapped Christmas-looking presents at his feet. He's humming lightly, hands shoved into his pockets, looking around occasionally as if waiting for someone]

[appears on the Plane shortly thereafter, holding two small gifts in her hands, though they are wrapped poorly. as soon as she sees the beach, however, she stops in her tracks, eyes wide, before approaching slowly, surprised] ...what happened?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[looks up at her and instantly he's watching her closely for her reaction] Ah, there you are. Like it? I thought we may as well have a proper Christmas for you.

[is pretty much stunned, turning slow circles in the snow to see everything, face turned up toward the sky to feel the snow fall on her cheeks] I have never experienced weather such as this in this state. It is ... it is different, Doctor. It is beautiful.

[smiles slowly before beaming] Couldn't use an atmospheric manipulator for it, so I tried an oxygen galvanizer and there you have it. Not that one of those should work here either. Oh! And the lights are from Waite. They hover so they're easy to put up and reuse. Glad you like it.

If that's who I think it's for, you just made a blue box very happy.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Hullo! [smiles] I hope so. How'd you know about it?

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

We talk to each other, y'know.

Nice suit, by the way.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Didn't know Christmas came up.

[grins] I said I'd wear, didn't I?

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[looks very stark against the snow, and carefully navigates so he doesn't get the bottoms of his trousers wet]

Special occasion?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[looks up and smiles] Ah, yes, I suppose. She was curious what Christmas is like. Figured I'd show the nice picture of it. [figures Five would know 'she' since they're both TARDIS petters]

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[a warm smile]

That sounds lovely. I'm sure she'll appreciate it.

[a slight nod to the gifts]

What did you get her?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

This is very romantic. What a happy little machine you'll make for.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

I hope so. Don't think it was too much?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

It's far more than your TARDIS is worth, but the sentimental, showy extravagance is precisely your style.

[madamemoiselle]

{Smiles} Is it Christmas for the Doctor too?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[looks up and beams at her] Nah. This is actually for a friend. She's never had Christmas before and I thought she might enjoy it. It's Christmas for you, then?

[madamemoiselle]

Next Monday, actually. Though, that's really nice of you! Christmas is such a nice time of year in comparison to...well, the rest. People are so much nicer, it seems like.

[didorothy]

For the TARDIS?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[looks up and nods] She wanted to try out Christmas. I thought it should be a proper one. Well- [glances at the tropical trees] -more or less. Did she mention it to you, too?

[didorothy]

She wanted ideas.

[bouncyhair.livejournal.com]

[well, so there's a chunk of beach here too. this is new. not as new as the, um, snow...and such]

Hey, it looks almost like Christmas back home! We didn't get snow most of the time but...

[Sora suddenly looks pretty excited]

Is it Christmas here?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[laughs] I hope it looks like Christmas. That's the point of it. Although it's not Christmas where I'm from. It's mostly for a friend. I take it you're from an island?

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

[happened to pop in right in a patch of snow, and as such he looks mildly confused] A bit early, isn't it?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[grins] Yeah but she wanted to try out a proper Christmas. I didn't see the harm in it. [and yes, once again assumes the 'she' is easy enough to tell]

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

[gotta think about it for a sec, and then a slow grin spreads over his face] She'll love it then.
