Angels take Manhattan...

[hullo_sweetie]

All stories come to an end eventually. All endings happen whether we want them to or not. It's something the Doctor never takes very well. Of course I'll look after him. Haven't I always held his best interests in mind? Even when I'm slapping him, it's for his own good. He just doesn't always see it that way.

Amy and Rory Pond. Always sacrificing for each other. I'm upset of course, but in an odd way I'm also proud of them. Together to the very end. I doubt I'll be by the Doctor's side to his very end, but I certainly intend to try.

[She seeks out his hand because....their connection shouldn't end so abruptly]

Doctor....

[She doesn't know where to begin. She's too tired for an argument, too tired to even slap him at this point]

Just stay here, alright? Close to me. I'll travel with you as long as I can. But we both know...we're best in small doses my love.

[ No arguments or slaps needed. He sighs and presses his cheek against her hair. It makes a nice pillow, really. ]

I know. I'm not going anywhere.

[hullo_sweetie]

[That's what River's wild blonde mane of curls seemed to be made for. His comfort]

Then I'm content to be by your side. At least until you drop me back off at Storm Cage. So boring, that place.

[comeonthensexy]

[ Well, it also fits her very soul, pretty much. ]

You'll find something.

[hullo_sweetie]

I always do. You've never allowed me to become very bored, I'll say that much.

[comeonthensexy]

Just returning the favour.

[hullo_sweetie]

[Another kiss to his cheek. She knows, oh god how she knows, he's going through hell right now]

You still have me, Doctor. And whatever companion you choose next. I don't care how young or beautiful she is.

[Her smile turns coy]

Just make sure she isn't a ginger or has curls.

[Oh come on. River has to tease him eventually. She just hoped he was in the right mood for it]

[comeonthensexy]

[ Indeed. It was only a matter of time. He can actually go along with it. Even if he still looks pained. ]

Afraid you'll feel threatened?

[hullo_sweetie]

Doctor, time itself had to nearly end before I got you to the alter. I'm hardly the jealous type.

[She kisses the tip of his nose, just for show]

But just in case...I wouldn't press your luck.

[comeonthensexy]

[ Then he'll kiss her lips, mostly to upstage that. ]

But I love pressing my luck.

[hullo_sweetie]

If I were you, I wouldn't press your luck too hard.

[She nudges his ribs gently, play fully]

Don't forget, I can still take up my mother's habits and slap you silly every time you get out of line.

[comeonthensexy]

[ He shakes his index finger at her. ]

Actually, I'm pretty sure that slapping me thing is all you.

[hullo_sweetie]

Not entirely. I blame it on my mother.

[She sticks her tongue out at him playfully]

Just stop using up your regenerative energy and putting me though hell, we should be just fine.

[comeonthensexy]

[ He gives the biggest grimace in reply. ]

You did it first.

[hullo_sweetie]

Of course I did. I also nearly killed you.

[comeonthensexy]

Yes, but-- What does that have to do with anything?

[hullo_sweetie]

It means you don't always have to repeat what I do.

[comeonthensexy]

Pth--

[ Yeah, that was just a noise.

Goddamn it? ]
