Re: Doctor and Dream
Was the Doctor a very old being who was thousands of years old? Yes. Did that mean she didn't get a little flushed when she kissed someone she liked? No. Affection was one of those emotions that even after so many years was hard to fake and also hard to keep certain reactions down. Anger was another one. You could mitigate it if you tried, but the Doctor had decided a while ago to try and embrace her emotions more - at least when it wouldn't hurt those around her.
"I'm a little you have a date for that...." The Doctor nodded in agreement to go inside. As they walked, she talked. though you're probably around the right era. Masquerades became all the rage for a while on Earth. Of course there was that time in the 51st century when these android were practically stalking Madame de Pompadour. They looked like the old style full makes of the 18th century. Ruined me on masks for a while, actually."
