SWEET SIXTEEN!

For this occasion, the TARDIS ballroom is decked out with banners and all manner of things that are strangely appropriate and much better than anything the Doctor could come up with. (The TARDIS decorated it herself.) There's food everywhere, with a certain tilt towards strawberry-banana smoothies, bananas, and jelly babies, and those little finger foods on toothpicks. There's even a banner that says "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" on it, and "SWEET SIXTEEN". (The 'hundred' was tactfully left out.)

The birthday girl herself has a strawberry-banana smoothie nicked from one of the tables and is now eyeing the decorations with a certain amount of confusion.

It's possible somebody forgot her birthday. It's hard, what with all the time-traveling and relative timelines. Good thing the TARDIS is here to take care of it! :D


{Right, so, birthday party post! This is going to be a load of multi-fandom meta goodness, so don't worry if you're in a community Eleven's in or anything. Just show up and bring presents. The Doctor likes presents. :D}

Matter-of-factly, "Of course I don't. I've always looked young for my age."

She experimentally tried to rip off a piece of the brown paper. It stuck fast, reinforced by the overabundance of tape. This one could be difficult.

Ace was tepted to make another quip, but decided against it. This was the Prof- Doctor's birthday, after all.

"This might help," she took a knife out of its sheath on her belt and handed it to the Doctor.

"You might want to try a little less tape next time," she said, taking the knife and very gently prying brown paper off. She hadn't the slightest if her present was capable of going off, and she didn't want to take the chance that it would.

"Never know what's going to happen. Didn't want the box to open up if I got attacked on the way over here or anything." Ace noted the careful way the the Doctor was opening the box and laughed. "Nothing that's going to explode. I promise."

She frowned. "As long as nobody attacked you on the way." She was still rather careful about opening the box.

And was slightly relieved to discover the only nitro 9 was a charm on the bracelet.

"Nope, no trouble this time. seems the bad guys are taking your birthday off."

"Good to hear." Mind, there are a few Masters she ought to keep an eye on, but all in all they do seem to be taking the day off.

She tried on the bracelet. It fits quite well, and she holds it up so she can have a good look at the charms.

Ace laughed when the Docter held up her slender wrist.

"I'm just imagining what kind of look I'd get if I gave the you I travel with a like present," she said.

She grinned as she spotted the small phone booth, saxophone, dragon, and miniature can of nitro 9. (She wasn't the over-emotional sappy sort, but this was going to have a place of honour in the TARDIS when she didn't have it on her.)

"Something like this, I'd imagine." Insert one Seven-like expression here.

"Now that's just weird. Uncanny, how well you do that," Ace shook her head. "Or I guess it isn't really."
