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. )

He should really take a page out of my books. Tuxedos never go out of style.

[waitedforyears]

And he looks good in them.

[initforthemoney]

I'll have some words when we get there. Sometimes he just needs straightening out.

[waitedforyears]

His current clothes aren't so bad as long as he stays away from hats, at any rate.

[initforthemoney]

It's still an awful lot of tweed. And what's with him regenerating into a twelve year old?

[waitedforyears]

I think he's getting younger.

[initforthemoney]

Typical Time Lord mid-life crisis, let me tell you. When he turns the Tardis into a red convertible you start gettin' worried.

[waitedforyears]

Has that happened?

[initforthemoney]

Not when I was with him. When he turned 900 for the first time.

[waitedforyears]

Now that just makes me wonder how many times he's turned 900.

[initforthemoney]

He was on his Sixth regeneration when he did it first. I'm gonna make a wager that he's been 900 for a few hundred years now.

[waitedforyears]

Must be, 'cause he's still 900 now.

[initforthemoney]

Jeez, Doc. It's called growing older with style. The rest of us manage it just fine.

[waitedforyears]

Most of us don't reach 900 though, to be fair.

[initforthemoney]

He's a Time Lord! They all do that. Besides, it hardly counts when he can regenerate a new body any time he likes.

[waitedforyears]

He's got to die first for that to happen, though. ( Quietly, because, well. Sore point. )

[initforthemoney]

[Eugh, that didn't sound happy. New subject!]

So where did the Doctor pick you up from, Amy Pond?

[waitedforyears]

( Much better. ) Leadworth. 'm Scottish, though.

[initforthemoney]

I swear you Earth ladies are a hobby for the Doc. He had an American one when I was with him.

[waitedforyears]

You make it sound far dirtier than it is.

[initforthemoney]

It's a habit of mine, comes from being a PI.

[waitedforyears]

A timetravelling penguin PI.

[initforthemoney]

You got it on the nose, babe. Or on the beak, in my case.

[waitedforyears]

And you're charming, too. ( So amused. )

[initforthemoney]

I've heard it said about me before.

[Ever wanted to see a penguin wink at you? You have now.]
