All the Whos down in Whoville...

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.)

No no! It's alright. She can make simple things, especially with help!

They have the head and wings of an eagle and the body of a lion and some their hind-feet are talons instead of paws. And yes! Lady bell can carry me while she flies for a short distance. If she's not carrying anyone she can fly for as long as an eagle. She eats a terrible good deal.

[She takes the pencil and paper and draws the gryphon she had drawn before, handing it back to the older girl.]

Now imagine that, only MUCH bigger.

Oh. Well that's okay then. I thought the soup turned out okay and I didn't think it wouldn't be a good idea.

[Clementine listens, watching and admiring Alice's drawing of the gryphon as she explains it.]

Wow. That looks pretty neat.
madcuriosity: (Hee this is wonderful)

Really, Clementine, it's fine. Mother would know what is and isn't safe.

Thank you! And when the party is over, you can come over and meet her. She's... not as nice as Marigold, though. She's a warrior.

[personal profile] littlesurvivor 2014-01-09 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, okay.

So she can fight? That's good. She can help keep you safe and protect you then!

[Without Alice using a gun. Clementine can't help being glad of that.]
madcuriosity: (Speaking with Dinah)

[personal profile] madcuriosity 2014-01-15 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
She can. Claws that catch, jaws that bite. She can fly and fight and she'll protect you too, Clementine! All my friends, like Jamie and Ellie, she'll protect all my loved ones, if asked. So, if ever you need her too, you will let me know, won't you?

[personal profile] littlesurvivor 2014-01-15 09:31 am (UTC)(link)
She would? Okay, I'll let you know if I need help. I'm glad you have her to look after you too.

[Which is true. Alice is younger, and she doesn't have a pistol like Clementine does. So it is good to know that Alice has some sort of defense and protection should she need it.]
madcuriosity: (Innocent smile)

I think... I would... like something a bit more immediate, though. [She thinks back on her vorpal blade... she turns back to Clementine, smiling.] But this isn't conversation for the holidays.
