This building has a thirteen floor! Isn't that something? Come so far from clinging to superstitions! And braver still, hosting a party on said floor! Brilliant! Like laughing at the devil himself. Therapeutic practice, that. Or should I say invigorating? Both. I'll say both. Less serious and life threatening though (I hope). The party, I mean. Not laughing at the devil.  Don't do that. Not unless you've a black hole handy.

Now, there being a party at all poses some conundrums. Do I attend and if I do... I am then in need of a costume! Can't go as myself, but can I go as an old self? Wear a leather jacket and, no... no, I'll not sacrifice my hair for being cool. A white suit, dapper fedora? Oh! Oh, yes! I know! I could go as someone not me who happens to look, talk, act, and think like me, thus is impersonating me, but really I'm still me, and hush it's a mental and utterly lazy costume riddled with secrecy except that you're now aware of it. Bollicks. Oh, it's not even Halloween yet and I'm already exhausted considering my options! Doesn't it seem a bit odd, asking famous faces of supposed fiction to wear famed outfits when a healthy portion of the lot of us are already utilized as such in this universe?

But then again, that is the fun of it, isn't it? Because we are all quite real in our respective universes, and we've all been prone to doing some pretending for kicks and grins.


Why a stick of greenery on the lapel though? Couldn't it have been a banana? I like bananas. Delicious, yellow, and they'd have gone much better with that color scheme. Nope, nope already too complicated. 'Fraid that may cause its own paradox anyway. Have I gotten myself in a thought loop? Suspect that means I was supposed to be grading something. Right, then! Back to it.

No, probably not. But....I dunno.....even for me, sometimes I sort of forget. Not in the sense that I don't remember but that its simply been so long since something has happened its more of an impression of a memory.

I didn't a terrible job of explaining that. Words aren't really my thing.

Think you did marvelously, actually! Makes sense.

When enough time passes for everyone, something often is lost along the way. Traceable, but effectively lost.

I'd argue that its only lost as long as it takes you to find it or experience it again. Sometimes the new experience is better than the initial one.

Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. Sometimes you've not got a choice on trying out the new, and sometimes you don't want to go back and retrieve what you lost.

Well of course. That's just life, Doctor.

Indeed. And just think, Kate Beckett. You've only got the one.

Mmm. Took almost losing it to realize I'd better do a damn good job of living it.

That's what I love about you humans, you learn in the one. I've had lifetimes and I still manage to--well, perhaps there's more than one curse of the Time Lords.

The thing is though, it was as much almost dying as a person who worked their way in. It's all a long story, but I had been hiding in work and not having much of a life because it was painful.

But I don't know - you've chosen a life of helping and saving people. And in that job sometimes there is no way to do that successfully or without a cost.

I do like listening to long stories if ever you want to talk about it.

Ah. Well, this came a long way from peanut butter jelly time, didn't it!

Oh I don't mind. It's a damn good story.

Mmm. I'm very philosophical when I can't sleep.

I imagine it is! Anytime you like!

Something troubling you?

Well, I would actually like to introduce you and Rose to my boyfriend sometime. So maybe then.

No. Job hazard. My body has learned to go on very little sleep, so usually I have to be thoroughly exhausted or sick or injured for a full night of it.

Sounds brilliant! We do enjoy meeting new people, Rose and I.

Not the least bit healthy, but that I can understand! Good thing you're in luck and I've very little need to sleep.

Oh good! I'll talk to him about it and we can work out a time.

No, definitely not. But when your phone rings, you go to a crime scene. Just how it works. Could be at 1 a.m., could be at 9 p.m..

Please do! We're fairly flexible sorts. With time, that is.

Oh, I quite understand what that's like!
