Bigger on the inside! (for gr8muppetyodin)

[ladyoftime]

The Doctor bounces on ahead, already digging through trouser pockets for the TARDIS key, coming up with a bag of jelly babies, a yo-yo, a small purple teddy bear, and an array of gadgets and gizmos, not necessarily in that order.

"Here we are!"

The TARDIS, of course, looks like a blue Police Call Box. The Doctor busies herself unlocking it.

"You know, you should meet Giles. He likes tea. A lot," Buffy said with a nod. "He might even like the whole alternate universe thingy, but this place? It might break his brain. He's only just gotten used to computers, and even then he whinges about them."

Buffy's eyebrows went up, but she was grinning. "So, for arguement's sake, you have a particular place, or time in mind? What if I need clothes?" She wasn't opposed to an adventure, not at all.

"I've developed quite a wardrobe in this place, in varying sizes, so probably if you need anything specific you'll find something that fits."

She contemplates the first question for a moment. "What are you in the mood for?"

[gr8muppetyodin.livejournal.com]

"How long have you been doing this, anyway?" Buffy stood up again, stretching her legs as she tried to figure out just what exactly she was in the mood for.

"Um, nothing involving big poofy dresses. I've done the princess thing... didn't really agree with me. I don't know, this is like putting me in a shoe store and asking me which pair is my favourite." Buffy tilted her head. "I just want something... fun."

"Fifteen hundred years, give or take. Something like that."

The Doctor beams in a- well, the word 'manic' was probably invented for it- way, and jumps out of her seat. "Fun it is! How's an amusement park sound?"

Buffy stared for a moment. "Seriously? You're older than Angel... But hey, age so does not matter. And you look really good for fifteen hundred years. I hope my skin looks as good as yours if I ever make it past thirty."

Buffy laughed. "Sounds pretty good, actually. I haven't been to one in who knows how long. I love cotton candy."

"Brilliant!"

BEAM BEAM BEAM and running around the console like a madwoman. "Might want to hold on to something, dampeneres are a little- ah, squiffy? Is that what they call it these days?"

[gr8muppetyodin.livejournal.com]

Buffy quickly found something to grab a hold of. "Squiffy? Ah, I don't know. Sounds right. Basically means they're a bit dodgy, right?"

[eleventh-doctor.livejournal.com]

"That's it!"

Speaking of holding on, the TARDIS is jerking around juuuuust a bit. And by that, the narration means 'a lot'.

Buffy looks worried. She knew her driving was bad, but this was an entire space ship. She didn't think this was normal, but then again, what was normal these days? She might have accidentally gripped the edge of the chair so hard she left slight hand imprints, but she couldn't help it. "Does it ever smooth out?" she called out. "You know, just so I know?"

[eleventh-doctor.livejournal.com]

"Of course it does!"

She's lying through her teeth.

At any rate, it does stop. When. The TARDIS lands. "That wasn't so bad!"

[gr8muppetyodin.livejournal.com]

Buffy gaped at the Doctor for a moment. Not so bad? She managed to peel her fingers from the chair, and mustered a smile. "Guess it's all just warming up for the amusement park, right? A roller coaster's going to be a piece of cake next to that."

A moment of silence, and then-


-she laughs, startled. "Fantastic! That's it exactly."

Beat.

"You don't- need to change or anything, do you?"

[gr8muppetyodin.livejournal.com]

Buffy shook her head before looking down at her jeans and top. "No... why? You don't like this outfit? Is it the boots? Sometimes I'm not sure about the heels, but then they give me extra height, you know?"

[eleventh-doctor.livejournal.com]

"-What?"

Whaaaaat.

She runs a hand through her hair in a Doctor-type gesture of flail. "No! It's brilliant, I just thought I would ask. Wouldn't do to go out and have to come back because you forgot a... jacket, or something."
