Am I back? ( A beat. ) I'm back, aren't I? 'cept it's busy. Is it one of those weekends? Does that mean I'm just visiting, then?

( Yes, this is Amy Pond, sitting down on the edge of the fountain — a little older. ) How long has it been? Bucky? ( A painfully hopeful expression. ) Doctor? Doctor, are you here?



(ooc; Anything goes for Amy. Also, she's back from being canon updated, and she's a few years after The Angels Take Manhattan now. )

So, October, huh? What happened here?

[yourbestguysgun]

A fuckin' creepy circus who kidnapped people and turned 'em into monsters. Vines that came out of the ground and tried to kidnap people. Scary children. You name it?

[waitedforyears]

Yeah, all right. Glad I missed that. ( A beat, and she's drawing back just enough to look at him. ) You all right?

[yourbestguysgun]

Not really. [ Okay, so honesty is a thing now. ]

It's been a long week, Ames.

[waitedforyears]

() Oh. ) Wanna go somewhere, fill me in?

[yourbestguysgun]

Nah. You might not be here for long, we should make the most of it and you don't need me offloading.

[waitedforyears]

Shut up, idiot. Bet you haven't told anyone shit, have you?

[yourbestguysgun]

No.

[ Shrugging. ] I think I'm in trouble, Ames. It's kinda making me a bit crazy.

[waitedforyears]

Okay, c'mon, we're going somewhere and you're gonna tell me everything.

[yourbestguysgun]

[ He feels relief course through his veins at that. Amy understands, she knows about Steve, she'll get it. ]

Come over to mine, yeah? I can get changed and we can have coffee.

[waitedforyears]

Yeah, all right. ( Stepping back, but linking her arm through his. )

[yourbestguysgun]

[ He nudges her with his shoulder but turns back towards his apartment. ]

At least we'll escape the crowds. Did you see a freaking penguin go past?

[waitedforyears]

The penguin came talk to me. Think he's from my universe, actually. He knows the Doctor.

[yourbestguysgun]

Your Doc knows some people.

[waitedforyears]

He really, really does.

[yourbestguysgun]

But still, a penguin's kinda pushing some boundaries, huh?

[waitedforyears]

At least it's a talking penguin?

[yourbestguysgun]

That doesn't make me feel any better.

[waitedforyears]

It does me. He's very charming.

[yourbestguysgun]

A charming talking penguin, gotcha.

[waitedforyears]

Yeah. ( And they're there. ) Well, go change, then.

[yourbestguysgun]

[ Snorting as he waves and heads to the bathroom. Crepe immediately runs up to Amy like where have you been? }

[waitedforyears]

( Amy's just petting and cuddling Crepe. It's good to be remembered. )

[yourbestguysgun]

[ Ten minutes later and he's out in sweatpants and an old t-shirt, hair wet from the shower and a smile on his face. ]

Well, you'll have cheered Crepe up. You want a coffee or something?

[waitedforyears]

Coffee's good, yeah. ( Hopefully, she'll cheer him up, too. )
