[24]: Did you miss us?

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't you know it, I go on a vacation to recover from being dead, and Death shows up. I'm sensing a bit of irony, here.

Anyway, the break was fantastic, exactly what I needed. We got some exploring done, and got a good start on the Zero Room.

Wesley, Fred, mind if I drop by soon?

You're back from your mastru-orgy to annoy us all again, then?

[That's....sort of a welcome back?]

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

Three people isn't exactly orgy material, you know. And it was only the two of us after New Years.

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

Well, then it just becomes self-pleasuring, doesn't it? That sounds far less fun.

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[snerk] Oi, you'd be surprised.

[onlyanapple.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm sure you had plenty of fun with your...selves.

Just a heads-up, my least favourite person here is making threats against Ten. I'd watch that.

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

Who's making threats against Ten? [srs Doctor is now very srs]

Nine

[This name is spoken like it leaves a bitter taste in his mouth. Crowley does NOT forgive easily]

Lucy.

Crowley

Ah. [pause] Hopefully I'll fix that by letting her in to see the Master.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_fredless/]

Come on by, anytime. I know Wesley'll be thrilled to see you.

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

Fantastic! I'll be there as soon as we've got our new roommate settled in.

Nine

Glad you enjoyed the break Doctor and welcome back.

[concerned] What exactly does this Death person do?

Astrid

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Astrid.

Exactly what it says on the tin. He's the personification of death.

Nine

[stardustflying.livejournal.com]

You're welcome.

So he'd know you, if you'd met him, if you'd died?

Astrid

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

Yep, I'd say that's fairly likely. Haven't spoken to him myself.

Nine

[stardustflying.livejournal.com]

What if you were just about to die though, when you came here? How would that work?

Astrid

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

No idea.

Nine

[stardustflying.livejournal.com]

Okay, thank you Doctor. I was just wondering.

[thereis-a-line.livejournal.com]

Anytime you'd like to come by is fine...

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

I'm on my way. [and he's knocking on your door in a few minutes] ...Wesley?

[thereis-a-line.livejournal.com]

[He's amused by the promptness of the arrival, opening the door with a smile]

That was quick....

[http://users.livejournal.com/_fredless/]

[and Fred's sitting on the bed, one of her bright, patented grins evident]

Really quick. A person would start thinking he had a time machine, or something like that.

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[grins back] Nah, was already on my way. If I'd taken the TARDIS, I'd have been here much quicker. [winks]

[thereis-a-line.livejournal.com]

[Wes lets him in and moves back into the room, still smiling]

Can I get you anything?

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[follows Wesley into the room, taking a curious look around, before taking a seat somewhere and stretching out a bit, smiling back] Tea? Tea would be fantastic.

[thereis-a-line.livejournal.com]

[watches him for a moment, then nods] I think we can manage tea.

[mostly because, well. Hello, the castle provides it and Wesley hasn't got the slightest bit of an issue with asking for magical assistance. In a moment he's got a nice pot and three cups, taking them to the coffee table and pouring everyone a cup.]

I'm glad you're back, and finally getting to meet Fred.
