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.

[She laughs] Just Eowyn is fine.

[allthecoolgear]

Eowyn it is, then!

[shieldofrohan]

And... Doctor. A name or a title, if I may be so bold?

[allthecoolgear]

Mmm... Both, I suppose. Everyone just calls me the Doctor. I do have a doctorate, in several subjects, but they came after.

[ofdrumsthesound]

Why is that, anyway? Especially when you know damn well the things that can happen when I get annoyed.

[allthecoolgear]

(He sobers pretty quickly.)

I dunno... Old times, maybe?

You used to think I was funny.

[shieldofrohan]

[Well, that's strange, but not really stranger than most things here. She nods]

Well met, Doctor.

[ofdrumsthesound]

A lot has changed since we were kids, old friend. Although you can be funny sometimes, when you're not being annoying.

There are even times when I don't mind that much, but right now I'm hungry and you're smelling so very tempting . . . *He winces and shakes himself.* Sorry about that, I swear I wouldn't really eat you.

[allthecoolgear]

I know you wouldn't. I know you, if you were going to kill me, you'd want it done in the most elaborate way possible.

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?

[ofdrumsthesound]

*He laughs ruefully.* Yeah. Only the best for you, old friend.

[allthecoolgear]

(He chuckles quietly.) I wouldn't have it any other way.

[allthecoolgear]

Whatever you like, dear. The more trouble, the better, with you, eh?

[ofdrumsthesound]

I'm glad.

[fairytale_traveller]

Ok....the future. With a awesome bar and fun cocktails. Think you can do that?
