Rose ran her thumb across the lid of the coffee cup absentmindedly until the sound of her own name brought her back down to reality.  She hadn’t been expecting the other woman to know who she was, but that was the thing about timelines; they could be tricky.  “Yeah?” she asked, almost on instinct.  “Sorry, yeah, that’s me.  Have we met?”

@vilomahh for ten!

“—I told you that I could get us in free,” she said, walking up to him and flashing two tickets to the Aquarium that she’d just been given, “and without even having to flirt my way into them. So, that’s nice.” Finally, she noticed his appearance and, apart from the obviously befuddled expression on his face, she could have sworn he’d been wearing a different shirt and tie combo when she’d left him a few minutes ago. “What? Why are you looking at me like that?”

Deciding why not he just writes, “okay so long story short I am from the Planet X and before this place I was a Floral Colossus which means I was a tree in your terms”  He writes and then to show emphasis, he makes vines appear and wrap around him to show it off.

“Oh,” she responded as she watched him show her what he was.  Rose hadn’t been expecting him to be able to grow physical vines, but she was impressed all the same.  “You’re not the first tree I’ve met,” she admitted with a smirk.  “But I don’t think the others were Floral Colossus.”  Or was it Colossi?  She didn’t want to outright ask, in case it was insulting.  “That was the end of the world.”

In fairness, she’d thought he was dead.  But, true to the town’s form of bringing back impossible things, he was sitting a few feet away from her.  So, yeah, she was staring.  “Never thought I’d see the day where Captain Jack Harkness complains about being the center of attention,” she teased, crossing her arms over her chest. 

.｡.:*☆ “Can’t a man just have a drink in peace now and then?” Jack groaned when feeling yet another pair of eyes laying on him. “Or do you have a good reason to stay there and stare at me like this?”

Rose’s gift

After the carnival left, Rose was given a framed picture of her and her mother. It sparked some unexpected emotion and she spent a good amount of time trying to pull herself together before she went outside and was ready to face the world again. The picture found a place in her room and she’s ultimately glad that she was given something to remind her of home.

          BASIL STAYED PUT AS SHE TURNED, watching the exchange with interest. He could get a job here. Not in the shop, not exactly (he got the sense that he’d spend much of his time talking to Rose instead of actually working). Maybe the aquarium, that would be a great place to work. Leading tours and getting to educate visitors, that sounded like an excellent idea. He’d have to look into it.

          ROSE WAS TURNING BACK TO HIM, and he snapped himself out of his thoughts as she spoke. Something about the way she said that tickled the back of his mind in a rather pleasant way. For just a moment, he sees black leather and scrambles to grasp onto the memory, to drag it to the forefront of his mind, but it slipped away as quickly as it came and for a brief moment he almost, almost frowned.

          WAIT A MINUTE. Had they done this before? Gone out for chips?

          THEY HAD, hadn’t they? He couldn’t remember much, not what they spoke about or where they were, but he can almost hear her saying she wanted chips. She’d said he could pay-

          HIS GRIN SLOWLY BROADENED. “Right, chips it is,” he hummed. “I’ll pay. I think I owe you for that one time, don’t I?”

As she spoke, she watched and gauged his reactions, all while she tried not to be desperate for some sort of recognition to spark on his features.  A small smile found its way onto her face as she watched him think.  It was almost like she could see the metaphorical gears in his mind turning and the familiarity of it was oddly comforting. 

“I think it evened out around the time I won ten quid off you for getting Queen Victoria to say ‘I am not amused’,” she laughed, reaching out to slip her hand into his before the thought that she was practically still a stranger to him could even occur to her.  

Almost as soon as she’d done so, she pulled her hand back.  “Sorry,” she gasped, and she could feel the blush that was rushing to her face, coloring her cheeks and ears in embarrassment.  “Force of habit.  I wasn’t thinking,” she apologized again, trying her hardest to look anywhere other than directly at him to try to keep him from seeing the mortification on her face.

“Well, that’s good to hear, i can’t imagine it would be a fun life if you were.”

“No, it wouldn’t be,” she agreed.  “So, where are you off to?”

“I’m from…somewhere quite unbelievable in this place.”  Groot wrote and showed her

Rose took a second to consider his words before she shook her head and replied, “I’ve gotten quite good at unbelievable.”

          “A COMPLETE SHAME,” he agreed, head nodding slightly. Basil loved many things, and animals were quite high on that list. In that sense, carnivals were difficult for him. But every other aspect of them, their bright atmosphere and half-decent food and fun prizes, that never failed to delight the man. And to have some company with him? Particularly someone he was beginning to feel more and more familiarized with? That was the powdered sugar on this metaphorical funnel cake. His smile brightened momentarily at Rose’s acceptance of his offer, before Basil found himself making the most serious face he could in the given circumstances. “Know what? We’re going to go, and I’m going to win you one of those big teddy bears.”

It was the most she’d felt at peace since she’d gotten to Woodshore.  It was just going to be them, off enjoying a night and (more than likely) finding something to get themselves into.  Rose couldn’t wait.  “I’m going to have to hold you to that,” she told him, her expression going just as serious as his had before it faltered and she grinned.  Even though her tone was serious, her face gave her teasing away.  “I mean it. I don’t know if I’m going to be able to leave without one, now that you’ve mentioned it.”

“I��m Louise, by the way. It’s nice to meet you.”

“It’s nice to meet you, too.  I’m Rose.  And I promise I’m not usually this spooked,” she laughed.”

.｡.:*☆ “Only if you are lucky enough to be there first.” Everyone wanted the outside horse, usually, because it meant being able to see more than only your neighbour half of the time of the ride.

“Or we just play a game of rock-paper-scissors to decide who gets it this time?”

"I dunno, I can move pretty quickly,” Rose teased, but she knew that the other woman had a point.  It was usually a mad dash for the outer horses.  Or it used to be, but Rose hadn’t been to a carnival in a while.  

“Alright, I’ll take you up on that one.”

Chris couldn’t quite refuse the temptation. A little squint of his eyes, and the door of the tent flew open. Of course, nothing was on the other side. “Right, just the wind.” Another squint, and the door shut. “Perfectly normal.”

Rose did a double take between the tent door and him, unable to stop the sinking feeling in her stomach when it had flown open.  Maybe she’d convinced herself of it being something else too early.  That was when she realized the actual culprit.  “Wait, that was you?”

          THAT MAKES SENSE, he thinks. If it’s his ship, they might have it here. But why wasn’t it mentioned in that letter? Are they planning on not giving it back? Has it been taken to be studied? Likely not, but anything is a possibility, he believes. He’ll have to look into it, see if he can find more clues or any hint that the ship is around here somewhere.

          “YOU KNOW, you don’t have to call me Basil,” he decides after a moment. “You can call me Doctor, if you’d rather.” It might do him good to hear his real name isn’t that wizard, his real name is a title in use. Maybe it’ll wake a few memories in his head. After glancing around the shop for a moment, he settles his gaze on the blonde again and smiles. 

          “IS YOUR SHIFT ALMOST OVER, Rose? I think you’re the first person here who can help me remember who I am, and I would very much like to remember things. We could go down to the pub and get some chips and talk. Or I could wait for you to get off your shift.” He gets the feeling he’s being just a tad awkward and smiles sheepishly.

A blast of air passed through her lips before she returned his smile.  “That’s a relief, then.  It’d be a little unnatural to call you anything else.  

She looked over her shoulder for any sign of her boss.  Finally, she saw her coming out of the back storage room.  “Wait here just a mo’,” she told him, holding up a finger and turning to go explain her situation.  It didn’t take very much explaining or pleading on Rose’s part, and she had that one embarrassing time her manager caught her crying in the loo (which prompted her to overshare) to thank for it.  

Rose promised that she would make the time up somewhere else and thanked her again before taking her name tag off and storing it behind the counter.  Finally, she crossed the room to the Doctor, a wide grin plastered across her features.  “Looks like I’m done for the day.  You said something about chips?  I’d like that.  So long as you’re buying,” she teased, looking up at him.  It was a long shot that he’d remember that, but she figured they might as well start somewhere.

“Probably nerves and stuff under the flap…like rays.”  Groot writes and shows her

“Well, yeah, you could see her veins and stuff, but it wasn’t like she had a throat or anything.  Doesn’t matter, she’s long gone.  And she hasn’t even been born yet,” Rose shook her head.  “Anyway, I’m Rose.”

“They do tend to do that, don’t they? I hate when they do.” She took a bite out of her sandwhich, sighing. “Would you like to walk with me?”

“Oh, I know.  It’s so creepy,” she nodded, shaking out the feeling that was creeping up on her.  “Yeah, that would be great.”

.｡.:*☆ “Isn’t that just amazing?” Her good mood had been returning full speed, and Sally had already been busy all morning taking pictures of the carnival with her new camera. This was different feom old buildings, her usual motives, but very enjoyable nonetheless.

“Anyone up to try the carousel  with me, maybe?”

“God, it makes me feel like I’m a little kid again!” Rose laughed, looking around her.  The last carnival she’d been to was back when she was around thirteen or fourteen, and she’d been more preoccupied with her friends and all their boy drama than actually enjoying herself.  “Dibs on the outside horse, though.  Those are the most fun.”
