All the Whos down in Whoville...

[beforethewar]

Who: All the Whoniverse folks, and their plus ones
What: Eight is a bit Christmas crazy, and is inflicting it on his "family".
When: Day 378
Where: Thor 104 (Who House 2)
Rating: PG

A week before, everyone in the Doctors' makeshift "family" is sent a simple message:

Come to Thor 104 in one week's time for a Christmas get-together.
Bring a friend if you like.
No, this is not optional. Don't make me come get you.

When they arrive, they're greeted by a festively decorated house, twinkling lights and all, still covered in snow from the day before. The door is, as usual, unlocked so that everyone can filter in as they please. Once inside, the house is full of the sights, sounds, and scents of a huge family holiday gathering. A fire in the fireplace makes the house warm and cozy, and a decorated tree holds pride of place.

Grab a glass of cider or mulled wine, wander the house, find a conversation to jump into, or get some fresh air in the back garden.

But beware, Eight has been quite liberal with his use of mistletoe. Chances are you'll find yourself under some at some point in the night.

(ooc: Prose or action bracket thingies, whichever is fine.)

[He pats her on the shoulder.] Take heart in the fact that we'll not be the first nor the last to be utterly confused by him.

[littlesurvivor]

I guess not. He probably confuses a lot of people, at least at first, huh?

[What with the whole regeneration thing, there being so many with different faces around Asgard and all.]

[becauseichooseto]

At first, he is a shock, as you get to know him, he is confusing, when you do know him, he's merely frustrating. [He is smiling though. A little.]

[littlesurvivor]

He hasn't been frustrating for me. But I know I haven't talked to some of the Doctors as much. But I guess I haven't known him as long as some others to really say or judge.

[becauseichooseto]

He goes easier on the young ones. [He smiles.] I wouldn't worry about it. It's never a terrible feeling.

[littlesurvivor]

You think that's it, why I haven't been frustrated? Maybe. I know he's really nice to Alice and me. [She shrugs again, evidently not too worried about it but more curious and amused at his strange present.]

[becauseichooseto]

I think it's very likely. It's how he's always been.
