EYES follow her as she pracitcally floats along the console and he can't recall anyone ever seeming like such a natural around the tardis, except maybe river. and god knows how long it's been since she's walked these corridors. the sudden twinge of melancholia is quickly repressed, blinked away, he forces his gaze from her, pretends to be engrossed in something happening on the monitor.
" hm ... i do wonder why that is ... " and he can't help it, he throws a glance her way that's more than suggestive, a smirk playing at his lips, as he flicks another switch. maybe this new face is more ... open than the previous ones. maybe it's just something about ellie that has him giddy with excitement everytime she enters the console room, that makes it incredibly hard to abstain from the odd flirtation. " long as you're happy i'm happy, ells. "
⋆.*ೃ✧ ━━ nose scrunches up ... and a huff of a laugh leaves her lips , letting herself reluctantly pull away from the doctor. hands run over buttons , feet taking her around the other side of the console. if she stayed near him , she would probably be suddenly too forward. general flirting was pretty much a given between the two. it was almost natural at this point. poor ruby. ❛ i'm always happy. ❜ ellie rebutted. her smile never wavering.

" ALL of my clothes ? that seems a bit excessive, now " and muttered under his breath he added ( more to himself ) " no doubt she'd do as you say, though ... " it was a well-known fact that the tardis had taken a strange interest in ellie. in the past his ship would usually stay out of any companion-related meddling, had even been known to play the odd prank ( poor clara, wandering through the hallways all night in search of her bedroom which had seemed to vanish into thin air .... ) this time around the tardis seems to cast his companion in a favorable light - sometimes he even went as far as suspecting his ship might like ellie better, actually.
deciding he's tested out the waters enough - surely, if she wanted her privacy she'd have told him to bugger off already - he took a couple steps forward before turning around to face her, hands taken off his eyes and plopped on the counter behind him. using the momentum of spinning around, he hopped up onto the sink, then crossed his arms over his chest. " i promise it'll make you feel all better. " and he attempted his most convincing and reassuring smile ( which wasn't very convincing nor reassuring at all - that drink was vile ) " though, if you prefer an earth remedy, i can always crack a raw egg into a glass of orange juice for you " it takes enormous strength not to gag at the thought, the doctor gave as nonchalant a shrug as he could manage " your choice, "

⋆.*ೃ✧ ━━ a lazy smile crosses her lips ... as she watches the doctor back up into her bathroom. they had seen each other in multiple states of undress countless times. it was seriously like living with a roommate. an alien roommate. who had a time machine and if they felt like it - could spend countless weekends in a row , clubbing. ellie , barely twenty seven , felt more like a old lady whenever her hang over appears the next morning. the brunette usually makes the doctor take her to a mcdonalds ( or the space equivalent ) for the most greasiest breakfast. it always settled her stomach. she's jealous of the doctor's ridiculous alien biology , the time lord BARELY gets drunk or hung over. which is both a blessing and a curse. but this time however , those zogian drinks were a killer. it felt like her chest was on fire , along with her head. there's a snort that follows , watching him backing up to the tub , his arm reached out behind him - holding a glass filled with the most greenest liquid she had ever seen. the smell hit her nose suddenly and she had to physically stop herself from gagging. ugh , she'd rather deal with the raw egg and tobasco sauce concoction. soap bubbles that coated her body slid down her chest as she shifted , moving to sit up on her knees , as the doctor came to a stop near the tub. she was careful not to get him wet. ❛ that looks fucking awful , no offense. ❜ she whines , taking the glass from him. ❛ you also wouldn't dare , i'll get her to - hide all of your clothes. ❜ a terrible retort really , but the headache was making it hard to concentrate. blue eyes gave a weak glare to the back of his head. looking down at the drink once more , her tongue poked out , nose scrunched up , fingers played with the little umbrella. ❛ do i have too ? ❜ she questioned , willing him to turn around. the stabbing in her temples was telling her to just do it , so that she could have a clear head and go back to sleep. ❛ cause this looks like it'll make it worse. ❜
୭̥°⋰˚ ━━ @onefivc : continued. ❨ ❛ look after ellie opener. ❜ ❩

HE knows what he's doing, of course he does, and he's not above a little charm and flattery here and there to get him what he wants. his goal in question ? that smile. it's like there's electricity radiating off of her, he can't bring himself to find everything she does anything less than utterly endearing. " sure it is ! " he gives a grin that might be just as jovial and wide, then adds: " 'cept if you're anywhere close to the sundering suns of betelgeuse seven, of course. then that's a very, very, very bad thing. " he cuts his rambling off because another wave of ... something, some warm feeling hits him, takes hold of his hearts. and he gives a shrug.
" just like to see you happy, love, that's all. "
⋆.*ೃ✧ ━━ elenore's in a constant state ... of trying to make sure she doesn't turn into the sun. she wondered if the doctor knew what he was doing. probably. most definitely. head tilts and a smile tugs at the corner of her lips. ❛ that's a good thing ? ❜ she teases.

HIS eyes are squeezed shut, yet he's got one hand tightly clasped over them - additional support for his demonstration of ' hey, i'm not a creep spying on you while you're in the bath, i pinky-promise ' - as he feels his way around the doorframe into the general vicinity of the tardis bathroom. upon entering, he makes sure his back is turned to where ellie must still be sat in the tub. ( it's not like they've never had a chat while getting ready for a night out, clothes only half-put-on, one of them still in a towel - he just reckons with the wicked hangover she's sure to have, he might at least make an effort to respect her personal space. and to not rub it in her face that he was absolutely fine and could've easily gone on another four hours last night. )
" hey, i warned you about zogian drinks - they're about twice as strong as whatever hooch you're used to on earth. " and even there, 'used to' was a bit of an overstatement. the only person he knew more inadequate at handling their liquor was ... a vogon named jeltz. and then again, their species was renowned for their 'thimble guts'. ( and the complete absence of fun in their lives - not exactly the best drinking partners ) " i got you something " the something in question is an utterly foul-smelling green-ish drink, garnished with a little cocktail umbrella and a singular slice of cucumber. slowly, he backs up, holding the glass in where he generally suspects ellie to be. " best hangover cure known to man. or - woman. or ... alien ? anyone, i reckon. got the recipe from no other than zaphod beeblebrox himself, can you believe ? - back when he was president of the galaxy, of course. nice fella. surprisingly handsome, both of his heads, and - " the doctor stops, a little unsure " .... i feel like you should be right behind me now. so help me rassilon, ells, if you make me back up until i fall into the tub i will make the tardis replace all the jukebox songs with recordings of vogonian poetry readings, don't test me. "
⋆.*ೃ✧ ━━ soapy arm hangs over ... the side of the tub. eyes are heavy and she feels like her chest on fire. ❛ this fucking sucks ... ❜ she moans to the person who appeared in the doorway.
#' ʏᴏᴜ ᴘᴀɪɴᴛ ᴅʀᴇᴀᴍꜱᴄᴀᴘᴇꜱ ᴏɴ ᴛʜᴇ ᴡᴀʟʟ ' ɴᴄᴍᴀᴅ.#/one thing i will do is incorporate hitchhikers guide to the galaxy into doctor who#ncmad#tw alcohol mention#i guess?

an adrenaline filled kiss shared after committing a crime ( @whatspoilers )
" bloody hell, rivs. i -" could kiss you ? well, he just might ! his hearts pumping blood through his body at an alarming speed, adrenaline coursing through his veins. it was running and danger and escaping-just-in-the-knick-of-time and now it's just them. just him and river and their hurried breaths and the faint whirr of the tardis and he can't help but grin - that excess energy's got to go somewhere - as he takes her face in his hands and presses their lips together.
this regeneration - it's not one to shy away from physical affection. on the contrary, these lips have had their fair share of kisses, alright. but with river, it's just ... it's different. it's always different.
pulling away, he's still out of breath. " for the record - this doesn't mean i agree with anythin' we just did. " safe to say his sense of morality and justice is still intact. safe to say her being a bit of a criminal, however, has always intrigued him. safe to say - if she calls, he comes, and he'll do it all over again.

@undyingrogue said ❛ you’re my family too. ❜
IT'S a bit of a surprise to hear it put into words, but it's a sentiment he most agrees with. even though he's not entirely sure he deserves it - the doctor hasn't exactly had the best track record when it comes to jack. but what's regneration, if not a chance to turn over a new leaf ? ( and that doesn't only mean sending your bi-generation predecessor on a much needed mental health vacay, it also means apologizing to everyone you've been a right dick to these last few centuries ) " that's ... that's good to hear, jack. really. " there's a bit of a sad twist to his smile, his eyes aren't really in it, but it really is so good to hear, even if that can't quite calm his guilty conscience. " i want you to know that - i consider you family, too. even ... even if i - if somtimes i'm - " dancing around it, it's infuriating, in a way, how he can't even properly put into words how he's ... wronged him. brows pulled into a frown, he shakes his head a little to himself. " you know - i'm sorry, jack. " there it is. about time, too. " genuinely. "

HE used to think it tedious, this time around it's extraordinarily fun, getting to figure out who he is after regneration. it's a lottery - not only concerning his physical attributes, no, most of the time a new face will bring with it a change of character, too. to a certain degree, of course. nothing too pivotal. who's he gonna be now ? now that he has embraced the pain of the past, thus allowing himself to move forward freely, able to set down that backpack of burden in the first few hours of regeneration. who's this new doctor ?
apparently, someone who'll be at the club ! oh, he loves the club, he does ! he can't believe he's been missing out on this all this time. spinning around in his kilt in the middle of the dancefloor, arms clearing the space around him, he moves in time to the beat of an alien tune that reminds him faintly of anne clark.
- exhilerated, exuberant, utterly content. that's when he spots a face he'd recognise in any crowd, instantly. a disbelieving scoff, corners of his lips twist into a grin, he makes his way over to the bar not a moment later. faces before him, they might've all kept jack harkness at arm's length. but those 'unapproachable unpredictable enigma that is the doctor' times, those were over. a quick sign to the barkeep, " i'll have whatever the gentleman's having " , he pushes some credits across the counter ( ' keep 'em coming ' ) and settles on the stool next to jack. " well, i reckoned you were gonna flirt with me, anyhow " tongue in teeth smile, he raises his glass in cheers, does his best to surpress his natural reaction to jack's choice of liquor ( there might be some tears in his eyes, luckily the venue's dark enough to hide that, right ? ) " can't complain, captain. can't complain. " and he really, really can't for once, and isn't that just great ? " not yet, at least. new face, so who knows what's to come. " a shrug, another tentative sip. " how 'bout you, huh ? anything new with you ? "
❛ normally i'd flirt with whatever stranger buys me drinks in clubs , but .. i'm pretty sure we've met before. ❜ my smile was all dimples , all pretty , gleaming teeth as i settled myself back on the edge of the bar , hazy from the liquor that had bathed my tongue , squinting through my lashes quizzically at the figure across from me. i was old enough to recognize the doctor , no matter the regeneration ; i'd come across several at this point. plus , the big blue box outside was a dead giveaway. leaning forward pointedly , raising my voice over the din of the music , i chided at him playfully. ❛ mm .. how you doin' , doc ? didn't think this was really your scene ; guess you're still full of surprises. ❜ tongue to my cheek , i grinned at him , snatching my drink back from the bar to toss back the contents , relishing in the hazy warmth it created in my marrow.

HE whips around, disbelieving frown has his eyebrows both drawn together but also seemingly pulled up to high heavens " excuse me ? as if waitrose isn't the most whimsical of supermarket chains in the greater u.k. area ? " now, this might be a tad embarrassing ( you know, if he was anyone but this extremely cool and suave alien who travels through time and space ) but he really really enjoys going grocery shopping on earth. there's just something about it ! all the variety of products, the act of pushing the little cart around, asking for recommendations for something mundane as yoghurt ( although to him it is anything but mundane - oh, he just loves humans, he does ! ) plus, doing a big shop every now and then ensures the tardis fridge is always stocked with some bits and pieces. nibbles. for ruby, or for him - lately he's really been appreciating a midnight chocolate date ! " just look around - i mean, the colours ! the ... spectacle ! " something in his eyes lights up, he pushes his little trolley round the corner. " i mean, look - you can drink coffee while you're doin' your shopping ! and they even have an artisan bakery next to the coffee station ! " now, he could go into the detail why the vibe was better in waitrose than a sainsbury's ( too much staff at the self checkout, makes him so nervous he accidentally scans a net of oranges as a pound of flour ) or an m&s ( too posh - too much going on ), or why the vibes at a tesco express are still a bit more fun, but he refrains. rolls his eyes instead. " oh, you mean the colosseum that was used as an arena to watch people fight to the death ? or the amusement parks where, if there's one bolt out of place, you're riding into your demise ? last time i checked, the dictionary didn't define ' whimsy ' as ' lethal '. " the doctor throws him a look, proceeds to push his cart further along the aisles. maybe if he stalls long enough, he can get his shopping all done before they break out into a full-blown argument. " the point of being here is that i need goods and services that this establishment provides " a sickeningly sweet and fake smile, he grabs four jars of strawberry jam. " the point of you being here, however, is non-existant . according to reason, you shouldn't be anywhere, ever again. but oh, who am i to question the basic laws of the universe, huh ? "
He looked at the Doctor like he'd grown a second head (again) " It's a WAITROSE. How is a Waitrose WHIMSICAL to you ? " He crosses his arms and brows raising in a 'well?'. " And DON'T put words in my mouth ! I didn't say EARTH was whimsiless — just THIS PLACE. I'm practically the REASON Earth has all that whimsy OKAY ? The Colosseum and Amusement Parks ? ME. I'm just wondering what the POINT of being HERE is — and I'll FOLLOW YOU as much as I WANT and there's nothing you can do about so HA. " He stuck out his tongue in one final DEEPLY mature act of retaliation.
#' ᴛɪᴍᴇ ᴛʀᴀᴠᴇʟʟᴇʀꜱ ᴀʀᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ʙᴇꜱᴛ ! ' ᴍᴀɪɴ.#imaginefear#( q. )#they're really at each other's throats in a waitrose huh

sorry, i didn’t hear what you said, i was thinking about how similar nine and fifteen are. no, i do care, it’s just that they have very similar mannerisms and they have an unparalleled level of excitement, curiosity and whimsy. listen, fifteen is the closest to nine we have ever seen, but he’s got a level of freedom and joy nine could never reach because of his grief. you don’t understand—

@cora2ons said : ❛ i knew you would be here. ❜
" YOU know me too well " is what comes from the depth of the tardis wardrobe. clothes go flying as he speaks, he's in the far, far back, digging for ... something ? he's not sure what. something special, maybe - that who he is now ? some bird of paradise ? ( not that he minded it particularly much, did have a ring to it ) it's also what takes his mind off things, when they've returned from a particularly trying adventure. it's half preparation, half ... compensation ? it sure is hard to keep a life-adventure balance in these halls, so likes this little escape whenever he manages. " you know, i promised myself one thing when i took off after the whole bi-generation - " he strains to look at her " - after which, by the way, i was runnin' around in a dress shirt, underwear and trainers - long story - " a moment of pause, he does often wonder if his fourteenth self had been left to fight the toymaker without his pants, but that's another issue for another day " - but i promised myself to stop looking like a cartoon character, get some variety. " done were the days for being known for a bowtie, suit and converse, a leather jacket or, god forbid, a fez ( although he reckons he'd still be able to rock that ) with a grin he pulls out a white pinstripe leisure suit, complete with a wide-brim hat. " what d'you think ? too boney m. ? "

IT'S an awfully slow turn of his head to the side, eyes first and slightly narrowed ( side-eye or something, ain't that what the kids call it these days ? ) tongue pressed to the roof of his mouth, he gives the other a look - one mostly unidentifiable. one that may read ' i'm not angry, just disappointed ', he's not quite sure. but there's something brewing inside him, threatening to bubble to the surface, but he manages to keep it down, a few deep steadying breaths. " WHAT. is your problem ? " brows pulled up high, oh, he's fed up " if earth isn't ' whimsy ' enough for you - whatever the hell that means - then go somewhere else ? i happen to find it unbelievably whimsy - like, off the charts. like WOW. " he honest to god harrumphs, considers leaving but turns around at the last moment : " and quit followin' me ! "
" There's no whimsy. This place is WHIMSILESS. " He looked around with a grimace of disgust. " You and travel time and space and you opt to go somewhere utterly lacking in all charm ? What did the TARDIS remember you needed to do some errands ? Forget to pack TOOTHPASTE ? " He turns to the Doctor , with a snap and a SMILE. " CONCEPT — I make this place less lame. How about an obstacle course ? Maybe make the staff clowns ? Clowns are fun. "

@rubywinds said : ' i haven't laughed like this in a long time ' .
" ME neither, rubes ! me neither " hands clasped over his diaphragm, he tries to take a couple deep, calming breaths, though they keep being interrupted by stray, laggard laughs. one he's got those out there's still a beaming smile that remains, muscles in his cheek already sore ( but it's a good kind of ache, one that reminds him that he's ALIVE in the best way possible, and so he'll gladly push through it ) he decides to remain in his position - on his back on the grid floor of the console room - until he's managed to regain his breath. kicking his feet like a bug stuck on its back, he uses the momentum to hoist himself back up. a groan, accompanied by a little grin, hand hovers over his stomach : " i think i've got sore muscles where i didn't even know there were muscles ! "

A frown, he actually considers the possiblity for a second - then decides that, either way, it's worth the risk, gladly stepping in. " well, if it makes you feel better i could pop 'round to the garage or something - you know, so it's not as much of a mess to clean up if timelines do explode " tongue in teeth smile, as much as he'd like to mess with her, he can't stay serious, not when the sight of her is a sheer delight. " oh, no ! no, no, don't worry, not in trouble. everything a-okay. ", he reassures her with a nod - then brows knit together, mouth falls open, a slightly offended scoff ( all in jest, obviously ). " why, do i have to have mucked something up to come and visit ? one doctor around enough to fill your quota ? " he couldn't even be mad at that, frown gives way for a musing look, a shrug. " honestly, that'd be fair enough. we sure are a handful. "
@onefivc / starter call
"if i let you in, do timelines explode and you like ... explode, or something?" it's mostly a joke because she's already stepped aside and is holding the front door open. "doesn't matter, he's not here, so you can't explode timelines in my kitchen or anything." she looks him up and down, head tilted to the side, concern written across her face. "are you in trouble?"

@peacereflected said : ❛ this is a good look for you. ❜
" IT is, isn't it ? " with a beaming grin he adjusts the collar of his new coat, smooths a crease in his shirt, then gives the captain a little spin. it's obvious that he's awfully pleased with the post-generation outfit he's picked out this time around ( as well as the myriad of other little outfits that are laid out ready to wear in the tardis wardrobe - this time around he won't be simply wearing the same thing over and over again ! ) " seventies revival, baby ! " and he does a little disco point in each direction to accentuate his point. then, excited laugh sobering a little, he leans in, gives him a wink : " and - compliment definitely detected and appreciated, captain. "
