Day 319

Perfect. The front doors to their new home in Thor would be easily recognized by anyone who ever knew the Doctor. It wasn't an ordinary front door - oh no. There were two doors, painted blue with small windows at the top. Even the porch light overhead had been changed to look like the light on top of the TARDIS' blue boxy self. Her St. John Ambulance sticker was back too, on the door without the white sign that included instructions. Perhaps it was strange to have a sign that read Police Public Call Box over a door to a building but it felt like home that way. Surely the others would agree.

Unfortunately the only thing she couldn't do was make it bigger on the inside. The technology just didn't work here. Oh well.

She stepped forward and pulled the doors open as they were meant to be. Welcome home, everyone. And welcome to everyone who wishes to visit because the doors are left open. Feel free to just wander on in. There's bound to be someone about to harass. Also, a plethora of kittens thanks to Six's curse.

Day 319 (Housewarming party!!!)

[sexyoldgirl]

[madcuriosity]

[Alice didn't exactly have that many things to pack up. Marigold was flying beside her, carrying a bag in his beak while Alice had a few boxes in her arms as she was making her way towards her new home. She gazed up at the house, so many rooms, so many windows... Alice looked over to Marigold.]

Well Marigold, I do wonder who all else shall be living with us. I hope they don't mind fire breathing dragons. [Alice smiled.] Not that I think anyone could ever mind you.

[Alice took a step forward, only one of her boxes started wobbling.]

[sexyoldgirl]

[There is mama TARDIS standing behind her suddenly. She reaches up to put a hand on the box in order to steady it. Once its not about to topple over she takes a couple of them.]

Of course they won't mind.

[madcuriosity]

Miss Tardis! [Alice beamed an Marigold, bag in mouth, bobbed his head in greeting to the box that wasn't a box but a ship in a woman's body.] Who exactically is "they" by the by?

[sexyoldgirl]

[What a terrible question to ask the TARDIS. She shifts the boxes to one hand so she can reach out to pat the little dragon on the head gently.]

We've got all four Doctors - temporarily, at least. I couldn't just leave them to sulk by themselves. Then there's Roman nurse, the Archaeologist wife and the kilt-wearing Scot. And of course, you and I.

[madcuriosity]

[That's purring currently coming from the dragon.]

... What might the names they call themselves be, Miss Tardis? [Alice wasn't about to argue on "proper names" for people. If the Tardis gives you a nickname, you should feel honored, not inform her that's wrong. Still, such an answer didn't lend itself to much of an idea on who all was in the house now.]

Oh! But that does sound interesting, a Roman, an Archaeologist, and Scotsman! You know, I've not ever met someone from Scotland, even if it is just north of England.

[asgardsstrength]

[ And, at some point, Thor will be there - standing in front of the blue doors, his head tilted and brows furrowed quizzically.

Huh.




That sure was a bright blue. ]

[beforethewar]

[Hey, look who crawled out of his cave.

Settled on a chair on the porch, Eight has brought his violin! It's been a while since he's had the time to pull it out since he bought it in Utgard. Mindful that this is supposed to be a celebration, he decides against the somber classical tunes he would normally play for something with a bit more lilt to it.

He glances up now and then, giving tight but friendly smiles to people passing by him to go inside.]

[sexyoldgirl]

[Good Marigold. Come on now, inside with the both of you.]

Ah, that would be Rory, River and Jamie. [In that order. It really was just her thing, everyone got nicknames.]

The Doctor only picks the best to travel and hang around with him. [Yes, she is aware that he's picked Alice as well.] You will now. He's quite lovely.

[sexyoldgirl]

[There is the TARDIS stepping outside those bright blue doors and she stops when she sees who's standing around staring at their front door.]

Oh it's you. [:|]

Have you come to pay us a visit or was there something else that caught your attention?

[goesagainst_thegrain]

[Six moved in about a couple days ago, but he's also dealing with several kittens now. He's nipping out to get something or other that they need when he spots the god standing in front of their door.

He recognizes him, of course--as a god, anyway. The actual name is escaping him a bit; it'll probably come back to him soon, though. But it's enough to make him stop and raise an eyebrow.]

Yes? Were you wanting something?

[He has just enough sense to keep his tone light and conversational, not demanding or brusque.]

[asgardsstrength]

[ Thor's eyebrows climb toward his hairline at her tone and he straightens up, wiggling his shoulders at her greeting. ]

Look at that - it's me.

[ He sounds amused, though, and gestures at the door. ]

Nice color. Paint that yourself, did you?

[asgardsstrength]

[ Heh.

Kittens.

What an excellent curse. :')

Thor simply inclines his head toward the door, popping his jaw thoughtfully as he does. ]

Your door is blue. Are you aware?

[goesagainst_thegrain]

[Bastard.

He suppresses a snippy remark with some difficulty, before nodding in return.]

Yes, we were aware, thank you. I believe my ship may have painted it that way; she does enjoy her little peculiarities.

[He doesn't know how much these beings know about the people they pull here, but he finds he's reluctant to explain just what a blue door means to the residents of this particular building.]

[sexyoldgirl]

[Living in his district had not been something she'd wanted to do but his housing best suited them, and so here they are. Honestly, she didn't expect to actually run into him.]

Do you come out often?

[Just so she knows. :| The TARDIS doesn't look over her shoulder at the door she knows is very blue.]

I did. Not as homage to you, however.

[asgardsstrength]

Huh.

[ He regards the door in silence for a moment, expression neutral, seeming to look straight past the Doctor. There is, somehow, a mug of something amber in his hand that there wasn't before, but Thor hardly seems alarmed by its sudden appearance as he sips from it. ]

Nice. Good color. Have to say I miss seeing things that bright around the district.

[asgardsstrength]

[ Thor simply snorts softly, amused, moving to inspect the door. Closer, yes, but he still keeps a few feet between it and him - he's not trying to give the impression that he's trying to get inside. He's simply looking. ]

Of course it's not in homage to me. You're not one of my followers; you're not even of this world. [ He's not even looking at her -- simply the door. ] But I do like it.

[goesagainst_thegrain]

[He'll raise an eyebrow just a little bit at that--ok, that was a rather neat trick, in all fairness.]

Oh, well...

[A kitten chooses that precise moment to appear in his pocket. It's hard to miss--even if he didn't notice the sudden weight, however slight, this one chooses to mew at the top of its tiny lungs as soon as it can draw breath into them.

He gently draws it out, his wary-bordering-on-annoyed expression melting into something more glum. It's a Siamese this time, though you'd think it was a hairless mole-rat going by Six's face.]

...that's just wonderful. [He adjusts his grip to hold it more securely and tries to calm the kitten by stroking it behind the ears.] We're certainly a colorful bunch, though none of them are as colorful as me.

[asgardsstrength]

[ He bursts into low laughter when the kitten appears and mewls, expression suddenly and absolutely pleased as he turns toward the Doctor, holding one hand out. He'd been out to see the district; it had been gray, sick for so long, that seeing it with something that popped from such a distance was hilarious and relieving all at the same time. ]

Let me see the little brat.

[sexyoldgirl]

[She makes no attempt to stop him. In fact, she'll step out of the way so he can get a better look at it. Worried about him getting inside? Not at all. If he wanted, he would.]

Even if I was, I wouldn't. You can be quite rude sometimes. That hardly inspires people to want to do things for you. [Being bluntly honest with a god? Yes, yes she is.] As do I. Reminds me of home.

[Looks around her.]

Really, your district could use more blue.

[asgardsstrength]

I'm no ruder than the lot of you can be. [ But it's said cheerfully, lacking agitation. If anything, he seems a little more subdued than usual, but he takes it as an approval to approach the door as she steps aside. He chortles softly, reaching up to rap his knuckles gently against the wood of the door. ]

My district could use a little more of every color. But if you want to paint the town blue, please: feel free.

[sexyoldgirl]

We are the ones being essentially kidnapped. [Despite her words, there's no bite to them. If he can be nice so can she. It's a good sturdy wood, the newly painted door is thankfully dry. Maybe someone will come answer his knock - she's certain there's someone inside.]

[She looks amused by his words.] That might not be the best thing to say to me. I may paint the town and you may regret giving me permission.

[goesagainst_thegrain]

[He hesitates at the request (he's going to consider that a request rather than a demand or an order), eyes narrowing just a bit; the kitten squirms in his grip, apparently deciding that scratches are all well and good, but exploring is more fun. Its claws catch at his skin and clothes, and he ignores it; his healing ability is more than capable of dealing with cat scratches, should it manage to break his skin.]

...don't hurt it.

[There's only a faint tone of warning to the words as he finally gathers up the kitten before it can get away and holds it out to the god.]

[asgardsstrength]

[ Thor finally looks at her again, snorting softly one last time, apparently finished admiring the door for now. ] Do it. Paint the whole damn thing. Not my favorite color, but it's a hell of a lot better than gray.
