[ 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.

[waitedforyears]

Uh huh. That's what I'd say, too, if it was my fault.

[wearafeznow]

I am totally well behaved outside.

[waitedforyears]

You, well behaved?

[wearafeznow]

Of course I'm well behaved. [ Almost affronted. ] What must you think of me, Pond?

[waitedforyears]

Only that you like to poke things. Kind of like a giant busybody, right? [ t e a s i n g ]

[wearafeznow]

I -- [ Flushing. ]

Almost home now, Pond. [ He is not a busybody. ]

[waitedforyears]

[ Impulsively, she leans over and kisses his cheek.

Just because. ]

[wearafeznow]

[ If he didn't have the bag full of groceries, he'd hug her again. As it is, he just smiles, soft and fond. ]

Now, don't be getting emotional on me, Pond.

[waitedforyears]

Would I do that. [ He promptly gets poked in the side. ]

[wearafeznow]

[ Poking her back. ]

Yes, you just don't want people to notice you would.

[waitedforyears]

Nonsense. [ Poke war. ] I wouldn't.

[wearafeznow]

[ Oh, a poke war you say? ]

Now now, Pond, there's no reason to hide it. It's a normal emotion.

[<small Yes. Absolutely. </small>]

C'mon, Doctor.

[wearafeznow]

[ Tickling her under the ribs. ]

Only if you say you care.

[waitedforyears]

[ Squirming. ]

You're my best friend, you stupid bloke.

[wearafeznow]

[ Does that mean he's won? Because he feels like he's won. ]

Of course I am.

[waitedforyears]

[ Well, in some ways? But she's still poking back. ]

Yeah.

[wearafeznow]

[ Fine, he keeps going too. ]

We really should be getting on. The fish fingers will defrost before we're even home.

[waitedforyears]

Guess then we'd better eat them soon, huh?

[wearafeznow]

I don't know about you, but I'm starving.

[waitedforyears]

Almost there.

[wearafeznow]

[ Swinging her hand lightly as he leads the way to her old building. ]

We'll have to go and see the TARDIS tomorrow. Old girl must miss us.

[waitedforyears]

Yeah. [ A beat. ] I miss her, too.

[wearafeznow]

Well, we'll visit.

And ah, here we are.

[waitedforyears]

That we will.

[ Into the apartment. ] You gonna cook, or do I have to?
