[her_heart]

Gipsy's chin is resting in her hands now, head tipped slightly enough so that she can hear the other person whispering.

"It's fascinating, isn't it?" She murmurs, eyes still fixed to the screen.

[sexy_bluebox]

"That's a bit difficult to say, really. Sometimes he's tall, sometimes he's short. Skinny, fat, old young...chinny."

[magicink]

"That's enough to fuck with your head, damn," Julian says with a laugh. "What do you mean he looks different? And what does chinny mean?"

[sexy_bluebox]

"He changes." Sexy shrugs, like this is a regular occurrence. "You know..."

She makes a gesture to indicate a large chin, eyes bright.

[magicink]

"Like the Doctor?" Julian asks curiously.

He laughs. "Oo, like big chin. Got it."

[sexy_bluebox]

"Ooh, that's him!" Sexy jumps, excited. "Yes. The Doctor."

[magicink]

Why was it always the Doctor that everyone wanted?

"There are actually two of them walking around here. One with a bowtie and one with a blue suit. I don't really know the first one, but the other one.. quite well." Oh yeah, he knew Doc very well.

[handymetacrisis]

He still isn't convinced he'd met her before. "Are you sure? Give me a hint or something."

[sexy_bluebox]

"Something old," Sexy purrs, toying with a lock of her hair. "Something new. Something borrowed..."

[sexy_bluebox]

"Believe me, I've had five of them in one room." Sexy shakes her head.

[brains_before_bullets]

He takes a long draw on his lit cigarette, the tip glowing in the gloom of the theatre. He couldn't care less if this place was no smoking or not.

"Darlin', you're not making any sense."

He still has his back to her, responding from the end of his row.

[fivethreestrawberryblonde]

Sounds convoluted.

[she just shrugs! It doesn't really matter that much anyway, and she's pretty sure she can find something more on that if she really looks.]

So what was the solution?

[fivethreestrawberryblonde]

Well, I suppose that much should have been obvious.

What did you do to get them so upset?

[likeababyduck]

[They collide softly, Sweets immediately bringing his hands up to square her shoulders. It's then that he gets a look at her face, and his becomes a mix of confusion and pleasant surprise.]

Fred!

[likeababyduck]

[He stumbles back in surprise, his hands coming up to indicate that he didn't mean any harm.]

Sorry. I just ... got here. Wherever he is.

[magicink]

"That must've been a really big room to accommodate that much ego," Julian laughs.

[rumchocolatesouffle]

I didn't realize that was the only difference until he told me. I always thought witches were evil and ugly like you see at Halloween.

Uh, we tapped into their private channels over the network and overheard some stuff we shouldn't have. I'm not sure how they did it.

[solus_unus]

Nice. I'd love to see your stuff.

A little bit. [holds fingers a bit apart] I guess anything that gets the creative juices going. Painting is mostly abstract, but my last two pieces were more Surrealism.

Also into photography, writing music and have mastered the art of selling pens.

[solus_unus]

[Abigail did that. Only with when she did, it was followed up with a sharp elbow to the ribs. He smiles regardless.]

Asking questions is good. No question is a stupid one. Got anymore?

[sexy_bluebox]

"Certainly." Sexy smiles, flicking her hair over her shoulder.

[artistwithasickness]

Maybe you'll get to. [Assuming she ever saw him around Gebo again. But his choices earns an interested oh. She likes you, Caius.]

The art of selling pens, such an elusive skill.

What kind of music?

[brains_before_bullets]

[And he's getting a sweeping look up and down, Jax not really taking any chances.]

Didn't you get the welcome speech?

Orlin | Stargate SG-1

[ancientstalker]

There's a man... just standing in the tunnel between barracks, staring up at the fish, smiling pleasantly.

"Well, this isn't what I expected from my re-ascension..."

Re: Jackson "Jax" Teller | Sons of Anarchy | Scenario: 2, Feeling: 3

[repairing]

"And here I thought I knew everything about you." Tara dropped into the seat beside him before she glanced up at the screen.

[brains_before_bullets]

And he jolts straight into a full sitting position at her voice, turning and staring at her.

"T-Tara?"

She's real, right? He's not dreaming... is he?
