[ The video clicks on to reveal two familiar faces: the City is, once again +1 Scottish redhead and +1 floppy-haired bow-tied Doctor. Even if said Doctor is currently hiding the floppy hair under a sombrero.

They're both grinning wildly. ]

Do you want to do the honours? I think you should.

[ The Doctor looks pleased, taking a deep breath and then he is doing a truly remarkable impression of a drum roll. While Amy is not giggling. Really. ]

Guess what, City? We're back. Did you miss us?

[ A beat. ] You better have. Roll call, who's here? Barnes, you better not have left while I was gone or I will confiscate all your alcohol.

Gotcha. Position of best friend's already taken by the bloke in the hat, but hey, always room for one more, yeah?

[studmuffin]

Sure, I'm totally capable of wheedling my way in there if I have to.

video;

[waitedforyears]

Yeah? [ A beat, and she looks amused. ] So, Stiles. What do you do?

[studmuffin]

[ Jerk off? ]

I haven't figured that out yet.

[waitedforyears]

You're like, what? Sixteen? Seventeen?

video;

[studmuffin]

Seventeen. [ Pausing. ] Almost.

But hey, I'm totally mature for my age.

[waitedforyears]

Gotcha. 's what I used to say, too. [ EXCEPT ANOTHER TYPE OF MATURITY. ]

[studmuffin]

Well, as long as there's no judgement going down, I'm cool with it.

video;

[waitedforyears]

Nah, don't worry.

video;

[studmuffin]

Because I am an old soul. [ Severe nod. ]

[waitedforyears]

'nother one of those, really? [ She already has the Doctor. ]

video;

[studmuffin]

Nah, I just like to pretend I am so people let me get away with more stuff.

video;

[waitedforyears]

That's not so bad, then. Good thinking.

video;

[studmuffin]

I'm totally the town genius.

video;

[waitedforyears]

With a healthy sense of self-confidence, too, I approve.

[studmuffin]

Sometimes you have to blow your own trumpet.

video;

[waitedforyears]

Oh, nothing wrong with that.

video;

[studmuffin]

Unless you are literally trying to blow your own trumpet and are Marilyn Manson.

video;

[waitedforyears]

Wow. I didn't want to imagine that one, but you're right.

video;

[studmuffin]

[ Laughing. ] I am not sorry.

video;

[waitedforyears]

Nor should you be.

video;

[studmuffin]

So, I take it from the intro you guys've been here before? Can that happen?

video;

[waitedforyears]

Happens more often than you'd think. Sometimes people remember, sometimes they don't.

video;

[studmuffin]

Huh. Does anyone know why we get brought here?

video;

[waitedforyears]

I think the working theory's the Deities amusement.
