possibly going to asgardeventide ...

[earthgirl]

You want to send me where, for what?

[ It's just an end-game, don't get your knickers in a twist. ]

I'll twist them as much as I want! You're not sending me off to- to babysit for a couple of months in the middle of a war, oh no. That is not me, I don't do Middle of the War.

Babysit in a war? Either you suck or it isn't much of a war.

[earthgirl]

Depends who you're babysitting. Grown men. And believe me, they need it.

[mortifero]

Then it's a crappy gig. Why are you even bothering? They're men. Just let them get on with whatever they gotta do.

[earthgirl]

Because these men are slightly important. Believe me, if it were up to me they'd shut up and do as they were told- but they'll do everything but just out of spite. Can't just let them run around on their own.

[mortifero]

Men being important? I've heard that before and believe me, it never pans out. If they want to be stupid let them. Better to make them see you were right then waste effort when they're not listening.

[comeonthensexy]

And babysitting's your first concern. Which, by the way--

[ HOLDS UP FINGER ]

Excuse me?

[earthgirl]

Men in general, nah. When I said men I mean, really, just one man. There are just ... a few different versions of him. And don't ask me to explain cause I've got no idea.

And he's important to me- and don't tell him I've said it, but I'd be horribly upset if he ever got knocked off.

[earthgirl]

What? You've got an excuse to prove me wrong?

[comeonthensexy]

Well, we're not babies, so technically speaking it just doesn't make any sense.

[earthgirl]

Time Lord-Sitting. Better?

[mortifero]

Must be special then. Or I hope he is, otherwise you've got it bad.

[earthgirl]

Eugh-- No. Think more ... Best friends. Maybe a bit motherly. No love here oh my god, that is disgusting.

[mortifero]

Finally, we've got something right. No love, you don't have to tell me that one twice.

So what has he done to be so special? Save your life? Rescue a puppy?

[earthgirl]

Bit of saving my life- haven't actually seen him rescue a puppy, but I wouldn't put it past him.

I dunno ... What best friends have you got that have to do something big an' special to just be a best friend?

[mortifero]

Yeah, best friends aren't really a thing. That's probably why they've got to be special.

I mean, I don't know, if you're calling them a best friend they've got to be better than a regular friend. Special kind of covers it.

[earthgirl]

Best friends are just people you're extra close to, aren't they? Kind of like ... platonic soul mates.

[ Gods, never let him hear her say that, either. ]

[allpurposescarf]

I don't think any of us really do Middle of the War, as you've put it.

[bossily]

Oh, don't worry. The nannying's handled.

[Because yes, Eleven, you are totally babies. You might be the biggest baby of them all.]

For the most part. Never know what might happen with a handful of Time Lords around. Especially that one up there. He's the worst out of the entire lot.

[comeonthensexy]

Oi! Clara.

[comeonthensexy]

[ ...

HUFF. Folds arms. ]

Not really, but fine.

[bossily]

Yes?

[Perfectly innocent face goes here.]

[comeonthensexy]

Watch me not stand up for you next time!

[ Like if Twelve calls you an egomaniac again. ]

[doctorprettyboy]

Your poor mun.

[bossily]

When do you have to stand up for me?

[There's a pause, and she huffs.]

You know I don't actually mean it, I hope.

[madman_in_abox]

You? Babysit? Pffft, ok. This should be interesting to say the least. [Yep, he doesn't mean to tease but he can't help it.]

[comeonthensexy]

Honestly, I've got to wonder.

[ No, not really. ]

[mortifero]

Hey if you want to get all touchy feely with the friend crap that's your business. Just keep the sign ups somewhere else.
