New Year.

[fezandbowtie]

 First order of business! It's a little over an hour away from midnight here...it'll be a new year...pretty exciting, is it not? New year and that means new goals and some changes. 

Tags. We, er you mostly, need to get better at remembering to reply to things in a -timely- manner. I know you hate waiting, well, that doesn't make it very fair for them to wait.

Icons. I still need a few more of them (I'm very okay with waiting on this. It is a process and I certainly want good icons that capture my essence.) and I need them properly labeled. I'll never understand why you haven't done this already. It only takes a few moments to label them.

Your way of thinking. I understand that you've been burned and the other muses are not the most easy to work with...but please, thinking negatively is not helping anyone or anything. You can't give up. If you gave up in your everyday life the way you give up or lose interest here...you'd be in a lot of trouble all the time! While your job and the rest come first...you can't give up when it gets hard here. 

(He places a party hat on his mun and hands her a few noise makers.)

In any case, Happy New Year! (He places funny glasses that look like champagne glasses on his face.)

[Snickering, oh yes.]

Oi, you should keep tha' look, Doctor. Looks nice on ye.

[fezandbowtie]

You think so? I found these today and I thought they were absolutely wonderful for the occasion. Besides, they are rather shiny. Makes them easy to spot when I do take them off.

There's six hours left where my helper is, but the New Year is coming soon everywhere. *He looks a bit lost still.* So it's probably not a time loop, right? Or does that not make sense?

It doesn't, does it? Bloody flashbacks.

[fezandbowtie]

It's not a time loop. It just takes time for time to change here, just odd amounts of time. Don't worry about it. It'll be fine. Six hours? That's not too bad, I think.

[ofdrumsthesound]

I know. I just . . . I had Time War dreams again. About time shearing and katachronophilogisten, temporoceleritation and temporolentation.

[fezandbowtie]

You did, huh? Well, I'm not that kind of doctor, but would you want to talk about it? Might get things a bit less unscrambled.

[ofdrumsthesound]

I worry, sometimes, about who the katachronophlogiston burned away. And I dreamed about someone I almost remember, who I had to free from a bubble of stopped time by cutting her arm off. Her arm just stayed there, floating in the temporolentation like it was perfectly normal.

And I try to remember who she was, because I was so desperate to get her out of there that she must have been a friend of some sort, but that's my only memory of her. She must have gotten grazed by timefire at some point, enough that she was nearly forgotten but not enough to destroy her entirely. *He puts his head in his hands.* What if she's still alive, and we just can't sense her? What if she's right here in this bloody room, but the katachronophlogiston burned away her ability to be noticed?

[fezandbowtie]

(He nods, listening.)

I'm afraid I don't have the answer to that, not just yet. But, I would think if you were that desperate...then she was a friend. At least, I would think so.

[ofdrumsthesound]

I'd like to remember her.

There are so many things I'd like to remember, and so many that I'd like to forget.

[fezandbowtie]

Well, I don't think forgetting is exactly the answer. (He frowns.) At least, maybe that's just how I feel about it. Remembering on the other hand...well, I think they'll come.

[ofdrumsthesound]

Depends on what you want to forget. The effects of time sheer, for example, is something I wish I didn't know.

Happy new year to you too, Doctor. To another year of London not being destroyed by alien invasion?

*Cue Mun squeeing.*

[fezandbowtie]

Why thank you! Here, here! It would be a nice break if they stopped trying for a year.

Now, since it's New Years...have you made any resolutions this time? Seems like a good year for it.

^///^

I suppose that's as likely as an uneventful Christmas. Troublesome lot, aliens.

[Why yes, he is teasing you, Doctor.]

Haven't really thought about it. Maybe I'll go back to pirating. Those were fun times.

[fezandbowtie]

They are a troublesome lot, well..some anyway. Others are not nearly as bad. (He then realizes he's being teased and makes a face.)

Piracy, eh?

[english_dignity]

[Have a nicely devilish smirk.]

That's right, you never did visit my ship.

All in the service of my queen, of course.
