Party thread!
-Who: Everyone!
-What: Party time!
-When: Day 27, from 5 in the morning carrying on until 5 am the next day when everything will get cleaned up by the golems
-Where: Ballroom, club, bar, places around there
-Status: Complete
-Rating: Who knows! Could go from anywhere between G and R!

If one were to walk into the ballroom after 5 am, they would find brightly colored streamers hanging across the walls and from the ceiling. Confetti was constantly fluttering down from the ceiling, as if the tiny pieces were snow themselves. Tables had been set up along the wall with plates, silverware, and all sorts of food imaginable. The Planet had made sure to include everyone's favorite food on the menu. The dessert table was huge. There was also a drink table nearby, complete with a bar and a few golems manning it to monitor the intake of drinks as well as serve them up. The Planet seemed to be either apologizing for all the people missing or wanting the remaining people to get together and meet each other again.... or perhaps it was a little bit of both.

Alternate reality? Sarah Jane knew about those, at least a little bit. "Sideways in time," she commented. "But at least you were alive. Was it quite different to our world?"

She smiled as Rose asked about her. "I've been doing well. Seeing the Doctor again and meeting you and Mickey, it revitalized me, in a way. I found there was a lot I could still do that would help the Earth and the aliens who end up here by accident or design. Sort of went freelance, if you will." She took a sip of her water. "And then, I ended up stopping an alien group called the Bane from taking over, with help from some of the neighborhood kids no less, and found Luke. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be sitting here. He had no family, no home, so I took him in and adopted him."

Thinking about her son, home alone, worried her, but Sarah Jane determined not to let it ruin her reunion with Rose. "He's brilliant, Luke. Reminds me a bit of the Doctor, in that he knows an awful lot about everything, especially everything scientific, and often times I'm left wondering what exactly he's just said or done. Yet, he's still not fully aware of himself in social situations." She chuckled lightly, thinking just how like the Doctor her son actually was. If only they'd been able to meet properly; they'd have taken an instant liking to one another, she was sure.

"It was slightly different, I suppose. And we were ahead of your timeline."

She listened as she described her life since they last met, smiling at the adventures she seemed to be having despite declining the offer to come with them. She seemed happier in this life than she was back with the Krillitanes. Her smile grew wider at the mention of her son and she couldn't help but notice how much Sarah Jane seemed to adore him just through her description.

"He sounds brilliant."

"So you knew who won the election for PM ahead of us?" Sarah Jane joked. That must have been odd, going to an alternate world and being ahead in time. Everyone you knew just a bit off and a few years older than you remembered? "Did you get to say goodbye to Mickey?" she asked, remembering the young man who'd been so excited to go along with them, even if he tried to play it "cool".

At Rose's assessment of her son, Sarah Jane beamed. "If only you could meet him," she said. "When we figure out how to get home, I'll introduce you. He'll be quite excited to meet you, and he'll have a million questions."

"We have a President there, Harriet Jones," Rose smiled a little. Harriet had been better as the President there than she had been as the PM in her original universe.

"Goodbye to Mickey? Well he's the one who's back in the universe sort of in charge of helping me. He helps me get from one place to the other."

That was strange, she sort of had said goodbye to Mickey just in case she found the Doctor but not a proper goodbye as Sarah Jane was hinting.

"I'd love to meet him!"

Sarah Jane raised an eyebrow. "Harriet Jones? Same sort of woman as the former prime minister?" God rest the woman's soul, Sarah thought. She shivered a little as the woman's last stand replayed in her mind. Extermination by the Daleks was not a fate she'd want for anyone, especially someone who'd tried so hard to help protect the planet.

Realization hit as Rose explained about Mickey. Rose was talking about the dimension hopping in the present tense, meaning that Mickey was still sideways in time. He hadn't come back to Earth yet, hadn't rescued Sarah Jane from the Daleks, from Rose's point of view. She hadn't helped them defeat the Daleks, not yet. That was something that Sarah Jane knew she shouldn't bring up, so she tried her best to cover for her gaffe. "Ah, so you and he both ended up in that parallel world. I thought perhaps you'd been there without him." They hadn't exactly had a lot of time to explain the situation, what with facing down Daleks.

"When we get off this planet and back home, I'll make sure to introduce you," Sarah Jane said. Luke would love hearing about Rose's adventures. Information like that would be like Christmas presents for him.

"Yeah, same women. Though far more better in that universe than she ever was in ours in terms of being in office. She's quite loved over there. Though I do keep an eye out, after what she's done back home."

She noticed a shift in Sarah Jane's behaviour, but didn't think anything about it. She smiled a little, nodding.

"Yeah, Mickey's there. As well as my Mum. It made things...a little bit easier, I suppose."

She grinned even more as she continued talking about her son.

"Well I'd like that."

Sarah Jane raised an eyebrow at Rose's comments regarding Harriet Jones. She'd quite liked the woman as PM, and hadn't bothered to do much investigating as to why she'd left office. There were other things that had occupied her thoughts at the time. "You clearly know something that I don't," she said. "Have you met Harriet Jones?"

She smiled when Rose mentioned Mickey and her mother. She'd known, of course, but it was nice to hear from Rose's own lips. "I'm glad," she said. "I did worry, after what happened at Canary Wharf. It's good to know you all came out more or less okay."

Rose nodded.

"Twice. Once when the Slitheen first came, that spaceship which crashed into the Thames? She helpe out with that. Then again at Christmas, with the Sycorax. She was the one who ordered Torchwood to blow them up as they left Earth."

Rose nodded, shrugging a little.

"I guess you could say that."

Of course Rose had never been okay since that day. Not until she had gotten the Doctor back. She had lived her life, yes, but never been as happy as she once was.

Slitheen in Downing Street. Again, Sarah Jane was reminded of what Rose had told her back at Deffry Vale. She knew that Harriet Jones had met the Doctor, since she'd made that appeal on television to him during Christmas, but now she understood some of the particulars. And the woman had done what? "I didn't think the Prime Minister had the authority to order Torchwood to do anything," Sarah Jane said. Granted, she was no expert, but she knew a little about them, thanks to Mr. Smith. She leaned forward, toward Rose. "They were leaving for good, then? And she blew them up? That's horrid." Rose knew this, presumably first hand, meaning the Doctor had been there when the then-PM had done this. Sarah Jane could begin to see how her downfall had come about. Non-violence wherever possible. That was how the Doctor operated, and how she herself operated. Only if there were lives in danger did you willfully try to harm your enemy, and even then, death was a last-resort option. Except, of course, with creatures like the Daleks. But, if the Doctor had been there, and he'd let them leave peacefully, he must have trusted that they wouldn't return. Perhaps that was why Harriet Jones had created the underground network she had, as a way of atoning for her mistake? Sarah would likely never know the whole story.

Sarah Jane smiled. "At least here we're all reunited," she said. She was sure that being trapped without the Doctor, even with her family, had been hard for Rose. She remembered all too well how difficult it was to leave him herself, all those years ago. Even though she knew he couldn't take her to Gallifrey, it had still hurt. She reached out and put a friendly hand on Rose's shoulder. "And with the three of us working together, we'll soon sort this place out and put it to right, won't we?"

"They were leaving for good. The Doctor fought them, sword fight...I'm positive he was trying to impress me. But anyway, they were leaving. She ordered for fire. It wasn't real snow, that year. It was the ash from the ship."

She still remembered how bad that made her feel, standing in the ash, hand in hand with the Doctor and talking about where they would go next. She smiled when Sarah Jane reached for her shoulder.

"Yeah. The three of us will get us out of here."

Sarah Jane smiled as Rose mentioned the Doctor in a sword fight. That sounded familiar to her. He was always trying to impress his companions. She could easily imagine the two bodies she'd known the Doctor in picking up a sword to defend the planet, although she knew that the first Doctor she'd met would have tried that odd Venusian akido first, if he could. Her smile fell as Rose continued the tale. "Ash," she echoed. She remembered the snow that year. She hadn't paid much attention to it, honestly, and she'd had no Mr. Smith then to analyse it for her. But knowing that it was ash left her with a worse impression of the late Harriet Jones than she'd had previously. She shook her head, clearing her thoughts. Dwelling on other people's mistakes would do nothing to help their current situation.

"Of course we will," she said, squeezing Rose's shoulder. "And don't you think otherwise, Rose Tyler. You know full well there's very little the Doctor can't do, and even less if he's got us to help him. We've just got to stay positive and do whatever we can to help, and we'll be out of here in no time." The speech was slightly forced, but it was as much for Sarah Jane's own benefit as for Rose's. She needed to believe that sentiment herself.

Rose felt bad when she noticed Sarah Jane's reaction to the snow actually being ash. But she didn't want people not knowing the truth of what happened, and if it meant upsetting them then oh well. But Sarah Jane was use to it, she was sure, after travelling with the Doctor before.

She nodded, listening to her as she spoke about what they could do.

"Yeah, all three of us can get anything done. He needs us just as much as we need him right now."
