Everyone just needs to stop dying. [ Amy sounds angry more than anything, but it's mostly a defense mechanism. Deep breaths, and then she continues, a little more calmly. ]

Look, I know they look like pepper potts and pretty useless but seriously. They're dangerous, okay. Believe me on that one.

So. Unless you're actually invincible, just run away. Don't play the hero and for God's sake, don't die.


[ Yeah, so I just posted a hiatus, but— it's Daleks and Bucky died, I couldn't not post. I'll be around today, but after that, well, I hope you're all okay with backtags ;; ]

Why? What's their problem?

[waitedforyears]

That we're not them, that's their problem. Just believe me on this one, yeah?

[skintoskin]

I believe you. It just doesn't make any fucking sense.

[waitedforyears]

When's this place ever made sense? [ she likes it, normally. it means there's always something to go poke with the Doctor whose philosophy is, of course, something doesn't make sense, let's go poke it with a stick but right now, with bucky just having died — she's feeling less inclined to enjoy the nature of the City ]

[He sighs and eases himself from a crouched position that she can't see to look out the window at these 'pepper pots'.]

Yeah, good point...

[skintoskin]

I'm hiding in a building... Some of those things are going by...

[waitedforyears]

There's a place in Xanadu they haven't got to yet that's pretty well defendable. You want to hide out there?

[skintoskin]

[Pause.]

Where the fuck is Zan-a-dooo?

voice only;

[waitedforyears]

Where are you? I'll come get you.

Re: voice only;

[skintoskin]

You want to go out when you say those things are dangerous? Uh-uh. I'll stay put. I'm at the Welcome Center. I'm sure it'll be okay.

[waitedforyears]

'course. I've a gun, I've got the Doctor. I'm fine. [ So careless with herself in the face of danger. ] Let me know if they get any closer. Offer still stands.

voice only;

[skintoskin]

Okay, Amy, but really? If they're so fucking hard-core, you just stay safe.

[Pause.]

Promise?

voice only;

[waitedforyears]

I've seen them before, and I'm still here, yeah? I'll be fine.

[ p a u s e. Bucky's dead. She knows Daleks are dangerous. ]

Yeah, promise.

voice only;

[skintoskin]

Whatever. Just... be safe and shit, okay?

voice only;

[waitedforyears]

You, too.

voice only;

[skintoskin]

Of course.

[A bit of faint bravado and then he signs off.]
