a distinct lack of Amelia Ponds.

Look, I know why you've got me out here, and you should go ahead and forget about it, because it's not gonna work. [ Completely not. Stand your ground even though you're all conflicted, bro, it's precious. ]

I love Amy. More than anything. And I really don't know what I'm supposed to do without her. But right now- it's better that she's home while all this is happening, and that's more important than me missing her, and you know it. I can wait as long as I need to to get back to her if she's safer where she is.

So.

... Yeah, that's it, actually.

That was beautiful

[alittlefairytale]

...hullo.

[You are a strange grown up.]

How d'you know my name?

[soveryhuman]

Oh, well, that. Is very complicated. Time traveley stuff. [ And he is terrible at coming up with bluffs on the spot, welp. ] I'm Rory. Nice to meet you?

[alittlefairytale]

Time travel?

[You might be forgiven for mistaking this expression for incredulity, but it's not because she doesn't believe in Time Travel. It's because she's assessing you for potential Doctor-ness.

You sincerely do not look like a man who'd say yes to traveling in a blue box with a mad alien in a bow-tie.]

Do you know the Doctor?

[soveryhuman]

[ He gets that a lot. ]

Yeah, I do. For a while now, you know, the one with the, uh. [ Silly bowtie indicating gesture goes here. ]

[alittlefairytale]

[Oh my god you do know him! Amy's face lights right up; weird man, you have redeemed yourself.]

That's him! Is he here? Did he come back, yet?

[soveryhuman]

[ ...for the sake of little Amy, he can damn well manage to keep a happy face on. ]

Yeah, he does come back. And I think he's actually even funnier than he was the first time around.

[alittlefairytale]

I packed but he never came. I can pack again! Since... he is coming back.

[MOST EXCITING DAY.]

You're the only grown up I know who's ever met the Doctor. They all say he's not real.

[soveryhuman]

Ah, that. [ Casually waves off those adults, screw them man. ] Some people just don't wanna believe in anything, do they?

[alittlefairytale]

Must be awful boring.

[I mean, can you imagine? Not believing in the Doctor: how dull!]

So what's your name? You already know mine and you know the Doctor, so we should be friends.

[soveryhuman]

I'm Rory. Rory Williams. [ He bends down and holds out a hand for handshaking purposes like a true gentleman or something would. ]

[alittlefairytale]

Amelia Pond.

[And just like the queen of the world she shakes it back.]

But just Amy's alright too.

[soveryhuman]

Right, Amy.

How long have you been... out here? [ Vague gesture to musespacey-wacey surroundings. ]

[alittlefairytale]

A while I guess. Coupla weeks. Not s'bad. I keep thinkin' this is so strange, surely the Doctor will come.

He's good at saving people.
