OH NO DOCTOR YOU'RE ADORABLE

[exceptfebruary]

Not too bad. [ BUT HANG ON A MOMENT HERE. ] Your... "sonic sunglasses" sound particularly useful.

ISN'T HE THOUGH?

[helpline]

They are and you can't fiddle with them. [ going ahead and preempting the obvious question. ]

[exceptfebruary]

Pity. [ But he will relent. ]

[helpline]

Behave and I might let you wear them for a bit. But then again, that involves you behaving.

[exceptfebruary]

And what would count as behaving?

[helpline]

Not crashing parades.

[exceptfebruary]

I promise I won't crash any parades. [ Very particular wording. ]

[helpline]

[ yeah he knows that particular wording buddy. ]

Parades include events like picnics, you know. If you mess up the Fourth of July, I'll be very put out.

[exceptfebruary]

Attached to it, are you? Even though you've never been an American?

[helpline]

There's food and fireworks, [ the Doctor responds, with a simply shrug. ] Besides, it's easier to mess that up than it is to mess up the Queen's birthday or the Summer Solstice.

[exceptfebruary]

That almost sounds like a challenge.

[helpline]

No it most certainly is not!

[exceptfebruary]

Very well. No Summer Solstice for me. Though it is the day I get off parole. Perhaps I'll host a party. [ Beat. ] An actual party.



[ this is probably not going to happen ]

[helpline]

I'll bring the drinks if you do.
