[ Eleven's talking and walking, device held aloft in between his fingers. Occasionally the screen dips so that all the viewer sees is his bowtie, but that's quite all right, it's a nice looking one. ]

Let me tell you, I've been wandering these streets all day and I have yet to find the one shop I'm looking for. Honestly, you'd think it'd be sign-posted or someone would have been able to point me in the right direction. Who doesn't want to buy funny shaped balloons? I've a real hankering for one like a crocodile. I think it would brighten the place up considerably and -.

[ At this, he turns a corner, and runs straight into the building. It's clearly one of those kitschy birthday places, fancy dress costumes in the window and streamers hanging from the door, lifting lightly in the breeze. ] A-ha.

[ Feeling rather victorious, the Doctor grabs the poor woman coming out of the shop and places a very loud smack of a kiss on her mouth. She looks amused, fortunately, but he immediately flails, flushes and drops his device. From above the sounds of traffic, you can just about hear him apologising profusely. ]

Honestly, I have no idea what came over me, I am terribly sorry.

( ooc: yep, victory kisses, do your worst )

I tried to find one when I first got here. I was not staying in the Welcome Centre. It reminded me of Brendon.

[He fidgets, remembering that this Doctor is decades older and knows all his secrets.]

Or army barracks. And then The Tardis showed up again so I really didn't need to.

Ah. [ He's quiet for a moment, staring up at the roof of the TARDIS. He lives with Amy here, but he does miss his own home. It's not the same when she can't be set free unto the world. ]

Maybe it just helps to keep your mind off things. I think that's why people do it here anyway.

What do people need to keep their mind off of?

Being trapped, not having any control, the ticking? [ All of the things he tries to distract himself from. ]

I've had to take my mind off worse before.

Well yes, I suppose you have.

Did you need something, Doctor?

[Not that he minds you here. He just has an awful time with small talk.]

Well, in the grand scheme of things we all need something, but no. Not right now.

[ He's oddly content with the world. ] And you? Beyond getting the camera to work?

Don't say anything for a minute. I'm almost done.

[He moves his tweezers and attaches the last wire before he slots the casing back on and turns it on. A rare smile tugs at the edges of his mouth as it turns on, the picture bright and clear.]

Finally.

[And because, well, obviously. Get tugged down for a kiss, Doctor.]
