~ thirty-eighth fairy tale

[too_fairytale]

Okay, castle. What have you done with my boys?

[Yes, Five, that means you too]

Comments

[neverplays]

Did you lose your kids?

[too_fairytale]

[...adsk;lhkjg]

No, my--my husband and my friend.

[neverplays]

Oh. You should've said so. You sounded like a parent.

[too_fairytale]

That's just what I call them. It's like a nickname.

[neverplays]

How is 'boys' a nickname?

[too_fairytale]

Well, they're... boys... and they're mine.

[neverplays]

They're yours? I didn't think slavery was allowed anymore.

[too_fairytale]

[was she this literal when she was a kid?]

They're not mine like I own them, they're mine like... family.

[neverplays]

[Probably not. But she probably also wasn't a bit of a smart-ass either.]

Ohhhh. Okay. So, did the castle take them?

[too_fairytale]

[she was a MAJOR smart-ass, in her own way]

...aren't you stuck in a room with someone else?

[neverplays]

Yeah, it's the best. We're gonna watch movies.

[too_fairytale]

So you know, then. Yeah, the castle's locked them up somewhere too.

[neverplays]

You make it sound like a bad thing.

[too_fairytale]

Well, yeah, it's bad. What if they're stuck with someone they don't like?

[neverplays]

It's not the end of the world. It's a room. In a magic castle. Make two rooms inside the one room.

Wish for a wall.

[too_fairytale]

What if the wishing doesn't work?

[neverplays]

Really? Are they that incapable of taking care of themselves?

[hullo_sweetie]

Eleven's here with me. We seem to be....stuck.

[too_fairytale]

[yeah, Amy can totally hear that smirk in your voice, River]

We're all stuck. I'm with a bloke named Vanyel.

[hullo_sweetie]

[Now she never said she was gonna complain about being trapped in a room with the Doctor. It afforded them some healthy time as a couple]

No idea where Rory is?

[too_fairytale]

Nope. He's not answering.

[hullo_sweetie]

Well so far we've tried just about everything to get out of this room. The Doctor's gone all pouty.

I'll keep an eye out for him.

[too_fairytale]

Don't--break him, okay?

[hullo_sweetie]

[There's a deep laugh from River's end]

No promises. He's cute when he gets all squirmy.

[We all know the Pond libido is legendary]

[too_fairytale]

[yeeeeeeeeep, which is half the reason Amy made that request in the first place. Although, Do Not Want imagining the Doctor having sex. Unless it's with Amy herself. And that ship has sort of sailed. So--back to Do Not Want]

[she also nearly indulges in a Girl Talk Moment before she remembers that RIVER IS HER DAUGHTER and more than likely would not appreciate any references to her parents' sex life]

Yeah, he is. Don't break him too much, then.

[hullo_sweetie]

[Oh mother dear, River is entirely your daughter. Locked in a room with the Doctor, who, as it turns out, is her husband. There will be far more then squirming going on]

I won't break him. I can't promise he'll be returned in pristine condition though.

[too_fairytale]

[oh god this conversation needs to stop]

Okay, well, have fun!

[hullo_sweetie]

[Aaand cue a change of subject]

I'll keep checking my journal, Rory's bound to pop up eventually. Did the Doctor warn you about the Master?

[too_fairytale]

Yeah, he did. We'll be careful.

[hullo_sweetie]

Alright then. River out!

ooc:

[peacockherald]

Hey, Amy and Vanyel got put together for the locked in a room for 3 days thing. Like to get with you on it :) and sorry for tagging like this, but I figured this might get to you faster than any other method

[hulloeverything]

I seem to be stuck in a room with River.

[too_fairytale]

[...Amy can hear that facepalm, too]

How's that working out for you?

[hulloeverything]

It'll be a wonder if I survive til the wedding.

[He chuckles]

[too_fairytale]

[DO NOT WANT THOSE MENTAL IMAGES PLZKTHNX]

I, um, told her to be nice to you.

[hulloeverything]

Of course, her definition of nice is rather different than yours, I imagine.

[He laughs]

[too_fairytale]

[DO... NOT... WANT. Amy pinches the bridge of her nose]

Just so you both know, the bottles of wine aren't drugged. I've already had some and I'm fine. Unless alcohol works weirdly on Time Lords.

[hulloeverything]

Drugged? Why would they be drugged?

And no, for the record, it doesn't work weirdly on Time Lords [he laughs]

[too_fairytale]

Because the castle obviously wants us to get close to the people we're stuck with?

[hulloeverything]

That reminds me, who are you stuck with? Rory?

[too_fairytale]

No, because that would be easy.

[grumpy Amy is go again]

It's a bloke named Vanyel.

[hulloeverything]

Vanyel. Vanyel Vanyel... nope. Can't say I've heard of him.

[too_fairytale]

He's a good guy. Very old-timey gentlemanly. You'd like him.

[hulloeverything]

Old-timey gentlemanly... Amy are you calling me old? [He feigns offence]

[too_fairytale]

[she gives her journal one of her patent-pending mild "girl, please" looks]

You are, aren't you? Nine hundred years? Though [and here she gigglesnorts] that's still not as old as Rory.

[hulloeverything]

Eleven hundred and three, thankyouverymuch.
