On dusting off the muse

[allthecoolgear]

 Ah, hello! Been a while since you dragged me out, eh? What's it been, three years? Or two? 

Yeah, two.

I don't know why you're bothering, to be honest. You haven't got the time to put me in a game anymore. Wasn't it just a couple of hours ago, you were complaining about all the reading you had to do for school?

Still, might be fun, eh? Like old times.

Sometimes just missing us is enough to get some air though, isn't it?

[allthecoolgear]

That's true. I'm not complaining, honestly. I like being out!

I just didn't think it would happen, based on her complaining.

[ofdrumsthesound]

Hi there!

AHH HELLO

[allthecoolgear]

(He blinks, then grins.)

Hello. Been a while, eh?

Hi :D

[ofdrumsthesound]

Too long. And yet not long enough.

Funny how that is.

[allthecoolgear]

Not funny at all, I think.

[ofdrumsthesound]

Oh, you know what I mean.

[allthecoolgear]

Do I?

(He's totally trolling you now.)

[shieldofrohan]

Muns, it seems, are oft careless of such things. [She smiles, a little wryly] I am living proof of that.

[allthecoolgear]

Oh? Does yours complain about homework as well? Gets a bit old, doesn't it.

[shieldofrohan]

Homework, illness, family...

All fair concerns, 'tis true, but none of mine, and I would sooner they dealt with their issues than held me here as entertainment in the meantime.

[allthecoolgear]

Ah, sometimes it's not as cut and dry as just 'dealing with it'...

I feel the sentiment, though. I do get quite bored.

[shieldofrohan]

I know it well. And I should gladly be sympathetic, but 'tis hard to feel for one who keeps me so encaged.

Boredom may be a blessing, to judge by what I have seen of those in games.

[fairytale_traveller]

Doctor. Good to see you out and about, as they say. I've missed you, raggedy man.

[allthecoolgear]

(He grins widely.)

Pond!

(He's going to hug you now if that's cool.)

I've missed you, too!

[fairytale_traveller]

[Of course it's cool. She loves you, man. As a close friend could. You're practically like family to her.]

What's been keeping you hiding away from me then?

[allthecoolgear]

Oh, you know. Fighting monsters, saving the day, helping with homework. The usual.

[fairytale_traveller]

Helping with homework? Seriously? That doesn't sound like the dangerous you I know of. [She'll now be pulling you into a hug, raggedy man.]

[rehabsplural]

Oh you are cute.

[ Wow. He's... yep. Hi.]

[allthecoolgear]

(He's a bit red in the face.)

Oh, um, thank you?

[riverborntorun]

Did somebody say 'fun'?

[It's the closest to summoning River Song as you'll ever get, Doc. Enjoy it.]

Hello, sweetie.

Maybe I can summon her by saying her name three times.

[allthecoolgear]

River, hello! (He grins widely.)

But then you'll have to marry her - oh, wait...

[riverborntorun]

[She loves that old familiar grin of his.] Miss me?

Sneaky sneaky woman

[allthecoolgear]

Of course! (He's going to hug you now.)

Always

[riverborntorun]

That's what I like to hear. [She smiles as she wraps her arms around him in return.]

So, what trouble can we get into, hm?
