What the hell...

[reallygreathair]

I'm fine, yeah. I guess we should move you somewhere else. Shop is closed for business today!

[Looks around again.]

The shop window dummies don't move, do they?

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

Suppose it is.

[She laughs despite the slight discomfort.]

Only on curse days.

[She teases.]

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

[Gives her a look.]

Be serious, Rose.

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

I am being serious, Doctor.

[She smirks.]

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

You need to stop with that curse talk. I think it's affecting Uncle.

[Looks at her.]

Honestly, do we really have to refer to him as "Uncle"?

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

So you still think it's rubbish? Uncle's experienced some for himself to know first hand.

[Looks back at him.]

Well you came up with that title. Actually I think it sort of suits him, unless you'd rather me call him grandfather but I reckon that'd be creepier.

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

[He looks uncomfortable.]

I haven't been called that in a long time.

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

I'm sorry.

[She looks sympathetic.]

I didn't mean...well you know.

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

Yeah.

[Bounds over to her.]

You should get some rest. Is there some place you're staying?

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

[Looks up at him.]

Yeah. My flat. It's across town. Think the TARDIS can make it?

[Looks at him with hopeful eyes.]

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

It barely made it here. There's something interfering with the systems. It's a mess right now. I'll have to find the little fellow, who you know as Uncle, and hopefully he can help me fix it. Does this place have cabs?

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

It bothers you doesn't it?

Do you have money?

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

That something's interfering with the TARDIS? Of course.

[Gives her a look.]

You know I never carry money. Do they accept psychic paper?

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

I'm sure you and Uncle you will solve it.

[Rose shakes her head.]

Right sorry. They don't. Then again never really tried. Suppose I can camp here for the night.

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

[Snaps his fingers.]

Got an idea. Be right back.

[Dashes outside.]

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

[Watches him go and waits anxiously while muttering to herself.]

Should've kept my mouth shut.

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

[A few minutes later he pulls up to the front in a canary-yellow Edwardian roadster. He climbs out and enters the shop again.]

Bessie to the rescue!

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

[She gives him a look.]

Bessie?

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

Yeah. Isn't she beautiful? Oooooh the memories. Ha!

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

It's...never knew you could drive.

[Clearly she is just a bit shocked.]

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

Oi! You rode with me on a motorbike. Anyway...

[Goes to her.]

Let's get you up.

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

That was different. It wasn't a car. And you still owe me an Elvis trip.

[Looks up at him and slowly tries to stand propping herself against him for support.]

Let me know if it's too much, yeah?

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

[Straining.]

You might want to lay of the chips.

[Begins moving her forward.]

Re: Action

[missrosetyler]

I'll make a note of it.

[She takes several steps trying not to focus on the pain.]

That was some day though wasn't it?

Re: Action

[reallygreathair]

[They're outside, and he gets her to the passenger's side of Bessie, which is on the left side of the vehicle. The Doctor climbs behind the steering wheel.]

It is really hot today, isn't it? Right, where do I go? Better out on your seatbelt.
