[The image on the screen shows the (Second) Doctor in the library, scanning some titles on the shelves. He pulls out a book and scans through all the pages.]

Not the most original escape plan. Still, it does work for the plot. I wonder if anyone could recommend a good title.

Thank you, but yes I am much older than I look.

[To Alec.]

You may be right about me getting much older. I'm afraid to say my dress sense doesn't improve I don't think.

Re: Action

[water_wine_wizard]

Then you look good for your age. And you dress nicely too [She says.] Once you hit a certain age I think you're allowed to dress how you wish. Sadly [Her brother gets a bit of a disapproving look with his miss-matched era clothing - Victorian with jeans...] some people never get any sort of fashion sense.

Re: Action

[seconddoctor_cia]

[This gets him to laugh.]

It's better than velvet jackets and frills.

Re: Action

[water_wine_wizard]

[Both of them make a face at that, clearly agreeing with his assessment.]

Who would wear that?

[They actually say that at the same time.]

Re: Action

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Decides to spare them the details about regeneration and his next incarnation.]

Oh, this fellow I met once. Bit of a dandy I suppose.

Re: Action

[water_wine_wizard]

[Alec knows about regeneration but he doesn't say anything to that point. He's been around more than his sister. Instead he just flips through the fairy tale book.]

Maybe. [Laruna looks thoughtful.] Or perhaps he had someone he was trying to make happy by dressing like that.

Re: Action

[seconddoctor_cia]

What would give you that idea?

Re: Action

[water_wine_wizard]

[She points to her brother.]

I have done that to my brothers on more than one occasion. Boys can be very bad when it comes to picking out clothes.

Re: Action

[seconddoctor_cia]

Oh, I'm sure that isn't always the case.

Re: Action

[water_wine_wizard]

No, of course not always but still.

Re: Action

[seconddoctor_cia]

Boys will be boys, especially when they're young and full of rebellious energy.

Re: Action

[water_wine_wizard]

[Laruna pats Alec on the head.] And sometimes they never grow out of it.

[Alec rolls his eyes.]

Re: Action

[seconddoctor_cia]

What ever for? More fun that way.

Re: Action

[water_wine_wizard]

That's what I say, but no one ever listens to me.

[Laruna snorts.]

That is because you're a twit.

Re: Action

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Doesn't want to see them bickering.]

Now, now. I'm sure there's no need for that.

Re: Action

[water_wine_wizard]

[They stop as quickly as they started. It was mostly in jest anyway.]

Not really, just force of habit. [Laruna grins at Alec who shrugs and smiles.] Do you have any siblings?

Re: Action

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Looks uncomfortable.]

Well, I'm not as...close with my family as I probably should be. Running away from home probably didn't help much either.

Re: Action

[water_wine_wizard]

[That doesn't quite answer the question...]

No, I don't think that would. Were they that horrible? [Laruna sounds concerned. Family is important for all that she and her brothers drive each other crazy. And though she'd never admit it, she's glad for Alec coming visiting.]

Re: Action

[seconddoctor_cia]

No they weren't. But, like my people a bit too traditional and not very outgoing. I think I've mentioned before I come from a very introverted people. Leaving my world is not common and highly frowned upon.
