It was bright in the city street. Well, hardly surprising, considering there were three suns in the sky, each one white and hot, keeping the whole world lit during all hours of the day. Not the best place in the universe to go if you have a hangover or a migraine, but a wonderful place for an exotic, desert-side lunch.

He pulled out a pair of aviator sunglasses from his coat pocket---he'd been wondering where those sunglasses went off to!---and hopped out of the TARDIS, waiting on his companion.

"See, the rotation of Frotito keeps the suns in constant orbit around this section of the planet," he continued on in his best tourist-guide voice. "So no matter where you are in the city you'll always have sunlight. Not bad after dealing with the Library, I think. Too much dark there."

Had quite the life, didn't he?

Dear Jenny,

I'm on a Strethem Space Station right now, looking over at the largest clockwork machine in the universe. It's the Strethem Mechanoid Super Analyzer Mark 4. Basically, it's a giant thinking computer created entirely for the purpose of being the largest of its kind.

Sort of silly, if you ask me, all that brilliance just there to be the biggest and the best. I don't want to break the hearts of these scientists by letting them know the record'll be broken in under a dozen years by a couple of Zygons working out of their collective basements.

Still! You have to admire the way it's been built. Nothing in that planet-sized machine but cogs and gears! It's the simplicity of it that I like the most. It's all so simple, but it works like the most complicated nanocomputers.

Anyway, must dash. Hope you're doing well. It's nearly Christmastime in this section of space. Have you had a chance to learn about the Earth holiday, Christmas? I've included a video-chip, A Charlie Brown Christmas. Should teach you a bit!

Love,
Dad

You can't contain the Doctor's vanity...

A little bit of crackiness with marthajonesmd! Inspired by this comment in a thread with Martha and the Doctor...when the conversation turned to...

marthajonesmd: not that I am implying that Ten would ever do something like steal knickers.
rude_not_ginger: He'd just embarrass the hell out of her with them?
marthajonesmd: ...warring images of sexytimes with knickers and prancing around in them singing in my head.
marthajonesmd: no, Ten is not a secret cross-dresser.
marthajonesmd: my brain gets cracky sometimes. or, well, a lot of the time.
rude_not_ginger: *DED*
rude_not_ginger: He'd probably put them on his head
rude_not_ginger: To protect his hair
rude_not_ginger: When he's doing stuff down underneath the console

"That was my favourite pair! And now you've gone and gotten them all...oily!"

"But that oil could've ended up on my hair!"

"Oh, like you'd be able to tell the difference anyway!"

"Are you saying my hair is oily??"

"I'm saying that it's...very full of styling product. And that you need to stop stealing my gel when you run out, by the way. Don't think I haven't noticed!"

"You weren't using it! You'd gotten it all pulled back!"

"Well, maybe I was going to use it! You have no way of knowing what I plan to do with my hair!"

"No! I only knew what I needed to do with my hair!"

"Maybe you should've dropped by the bloody intergalactic Boots and picked some more up when you ran out!"

"I forgot! I was a bit busy saving the world!"

"Clearly, 'cos we've not got anything in the pantry, either! Maybe Time Lords don't need to eat, but humans rather like to!"

"Fine! Fine! I'll go somewhere, we'll stock up the cabinets. ... what sort of gel do you use? That had a nice hold to it..."

"All right, you can have the rest of it. God, who knew that it was so important to have your hair sticking up all over while you're busy saving the world?"

"It sticks up in strategic places!"

"What, pray tell, is strategic about it?"

"I'll have you know I can get any intergalactic radio frequency through this hairstyle."

"...you're joking."

"Yep."

"And you really just want to look good while saving the world, because you are the vainest man I have ever known, I swear."

"I prefer the term 'well groomed'."

"Metrosexual."

"No, no. That's all Jack."

"No, Jack's just...Jack. You look like you'd fit right in on an episode of Queer Eye for the Time Lord."

"Just because I like my big hair??"

"AND suits with trainers."

"I like these suits!"

"Well. They are nice suits. But my point still stands!"
