Christmas!

I've made the decision that the four of us will spend it together like we used to back home. Dad, stop grumbling. It's happening at your place as well.

Then John, Troy and I, we leave the evening of the 27th for Liverpool.

I have something very important to tell the both of you. Neither of you are going to like it, and perhaps I should have mentioned it before, but I didn't want to believe it was true. You both should prepare yourselves. Perhaps sit down as well.

I can't believe you. How dare you!

[Group Text to Duncan and John]

-I have Clara at the hospital.
-I assure you, it's not an emergency.
-She is fine.
-We won't be here all night, so you don't have to come by.

-She's been injured though.
-It's her throat, but she hasn't been able to tell me much.

-Nor do I think she wants to...

Saying this now in case I forget because of finals week for my students;

Going on a much needed holiday starting on Saturday and back on the 4th. If you need me during that time, here or email will be your best option as I'll try to check daily. And if you want anything from London, let me know. And hopefully things will be quiet for once

[Troy]
Try not to accidentally blow up the flat while I'm gone?

[Dad]
Remember to eat, get out and not stay locked away for the entire two weeks I'm gone, okay?

[Texts to Clara]

-I'm alright, don't fret.
-Just a bad dream.

-Still... I'd like to see you.

[Texts to Rose]

-What did the man look like in your dreams.
-This Doctor.

[Texts to John]

-I know it's early.
-What does the 'Time War' mean to you?

Text to John Smith

-I hear you went on a date.
-With Rose, but who with isn't important at the moment.
-What was it like?
-Is it the same as it used to be?
-...Did you know what you were doing?

As much as I dislike using this, it is the best way to speak to all of you at the same time. I'll spare you some complaining on this because I'm not contacting you to complain for once. Which, yes, is difficult to grasp but I suppose it is possible on the rare occasion.

So. My point. I am assuming you all know Clara had a boyfriend. Soldier Boy. Samuel, his name was. He died and she didn't tell me this. She simply moved here and I discovered it for myself by finding his tombstone.

Now. My other point. Has she told any of you about this?

I've sent you some schematics on what we're dealing with. Our problem is that we don't have enough energy to punch through this thing's shields with a frontal attack. We need to find a way to overload it.

>> Hawke, I'm Phones aren't working right! I can't say over text!
>> Merrill needs to talk to Hawke! Pass it on!

Oi, older-younger Dr. Smith Doctors. Are you free tonight, and if so, how would you like to be my plus-one to go help a girl who's stuck in an incorporeal state?

Hello, I'm Dr. MacTaggert. Jean Grey referred me to you to help with a little issue with a friend of ours. I don't know what exactly she told you, but I'll be frank.

Ms. Pryde possesses the ability to pass through solid matter at will. Several days ago her powers triggered on, and she can't turn them off. Her molecules are drifting apart. We've put in a solution to keep her intact, however I've discovered no medical cause.

I believe it might be mental. I'm hoping you can help.

>> This is going to sound incredibly bizarre, and I know that you and I have different dreams really, but I need your help.
>> A friend is in trouble.

[Text to Troy Smith]

>> I'd like to see you tonight.
>> If that's okay.

[Text to Emma Frost]

>> Knock, knock.

[PM to Troy Smith]
How are you, darling?

[Unsent text to Jean Grey]
Did you see Nam

[Group PM to Team TARDIS: All Doctors, Rory and Amy, and Rose included]
I think I'm going to be moving at the end of the month. Are any of you available to help?

[Text to Emma Frost]

>> Are you all right?

[Text to Troy Smith]

>> Thank you.
>> I mean it, I know that was probably awful intense.

[Text to Scott Summers]

>> So.
>> This is a touch awkward.
>> I mean, it's been more awkward, but yeah.

>> [Picture of engagement ring.]
>> You're coming, right?

>> I'm so sorry to ask you this, and I know the roads are probably a total mess, but I would do just about anything for something NOT from the cafeteria right now.
>> I'm not sure what they're serving now, but I think it might be carpet.

Check in please.

>> I suspect you're in for a busy night.
>> Will assume you're well but working for now.
>> Won't panic. Solid advice for Hitchhikers and ordinary fellows alike.
>> Will check in again later.

My dear doctor, I need to ask you a serious favor.

>> I told them that it was a bit early for things like dinner. They said they were just teasing.
>> I'm sorry that I rushed that I'm so bad at this that I tried to put a name for everything.

>> Did you wake up early to watch?
>> It was amazing!

>> John, I'm really sorry to bother you, and if you're busy I absolutely understand, but could we talk? Soon?

>> It's been a very odd day.

Would you like to join me for coffee?
