For Dorothy's Birthday (Which is actually on the 7th, but when have I ever been on time?)

[rude_not_ginger]

This box is placed outside of Dorothy's door to open whenever she feels is appropriate. 116th birthdays don't happen every day, you know!

There is a note attached:

Happy birthday, Dorothy! Hope you like these gifts. If you don't...well, next time tell me what you want! I had to guess! I'm terrible at guessing!

Love,
The Doctor

When the box is opened, it plays a copy of Boy Least Likely To's "Glad I Hitched My Apple Wagon To Your Star". Why? Because that song is fantastic, obviously!






And a note:
Something shiny but practical. It's a Terrestria Compass, only it's set to the TARDIS as north. So a bit of a homing beacon, if you'd like! Did I mention shiny? I like the shiny.


No note needed. Why? Because these are awesome, that's why. And in Dorothy's size. Not because he measured her slippered feet or anything.

After being slightly startled by the music (although it did make her smile), Dorothy found herself quite touched by the gifts. The boots had elicited a laugh-- because while she knew she would wear them, being practical and all, she couldn't honestly think of a single thing she could wear that would match them-- but when trying them on, she found they fit and were quite comfortable. Besides, you can't go wrong with cupcakes!

The little compass actually made her gasp. After some rooting around in the back of her closet, she came up with a long silver chain which she threaded onto her gift and promptly fixed around her neck. She tucked it under her shirt, after testing to make sure it worked. It did. Magic.

Later on, a note appears on the TARDIS.

Doctor,

I told you not to trouble yourself, and look what you gone and did! Can't say I'm too upset about it, though. They're absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much.

All my love, D


P.S.- When's YOUR birthday?
