What: Reunited!
Rating: PG-ish

After having made her way out of the forest, Tonks had been surprised to find herself in a neighbourhood. And also surprised to find it not as ramshackle as the place had been before. She stared at everything with a healthy mixture of curiosity and wariness. What the hell did the Management have planned this time? And they realised that she had other pressing matters back at home, didn't they? Ugh. Of course they did.

Tonks frowned then. She hadn't actually lost any time between the first time around here and her own world. The witch felt that, between the two worlds, actual relaxation was a long-distant memory. All the same, good things came out of even the shittiest of situations. Friends, for one. The Order, who were her family. The people she had met here.

The people she met! Duh, Nymphadora. With that thought, she had pulled out the journal and got to scribbling. Sure enough..there were names -- handwriting-- that she recognised. And one of them was around in one of these houses! Rose Tyler was here as well. She was torn between being happy that there were familiar people (who remembered her as well) and upset that they were here. Nobody should have to go through this.

After a few notes back and forth, Tonks peeked around the area again. For some odd reason, the first thing that popped into Tonks' head was that Peaches and Herb song. "Reunited and it feels so good.." Sang a bit to herself. Then she looked at her feet (after having gotten up and stumbled a little in the process) and took a breath.

"C'mon, feet. Let's find Rose Tyler." Brief bob of her head given in a nod and she took off down the street. It took a bit, quite frankly, but soon she came upon a house where she thought she saw someone. Time had made her a little more leary, and the fact that she was sans wand (again) made her more so, explaining why she stared from a distance for a moment. But after that momentary study, she smiled to herself and headed up the path. "You! You are a sight for sore eyes!"

"Right? Little hols from our actual lives?" The wry smile was returned before she chuckled a bit. "That would be only too keen, eh?" And definitely not in line with what they knew about the Management. "A comfy bed and a lot of pillows. That sounds so nice. Can't you be in charge of decoration here, then?" Asked with a laugh.

The wince went unnoticed, mostly because she was looking around the area again and trying to figure out where they might be in relation to the rest of the town that she remembered. But she looked back and tilted a wry smile. "Me too, I suppose." About forgetting. But then Tonks' eyebrows furrowed thoughtfully. Leaning over, she bumped shoulders lightly with the blonde woman. "Remy just likes pushing people's buttons, then. Takes attention away from trying to suss him out."

The mention of fighting had Tonks do her own wincing. "It's still happening. Going..difficult." Bah. Who wanted to hear about that stuff? Tonks waved it off with a hand and linked arms with Rose. "Tell me more about traveling with the Spaceman and I'll share the better parts of being magical with you." That sounded much better!

"They could've at least picked a tropical beach getaway," Rose joked, though the laughter wasn't really there, hard as she tried. And she knew she'd never be in charge of decorating the place because she'd never be able to do this to people. Take them away from their lives and throw them into the lovely pits of torture. Good times all around.

Rose gave a tiny smile at Tonks' shoulder bump and just shrugged. How could she explain how the stupid wannabe French guy had gotten under her skin? The way it had only worked because, in her heart, Rose knew he'd only been telling the truth? Stupid git.

So she focused on the warmth of her friend's arm through her own and gave a brave giggle, attempting the schoolgirl sound. She was only a few months older than she'd been the first time around, but she felt at least a good ten years instead. "Fair enough," she agreed, pushing her hair out of her still red eyes with her free hand. "We could've used your magic a time or two, you know. Lovely death-threat times. You know, I actually got my face sucked off? Like, literally, not there anymore. Think it scared your poor Spaceman a bit." Only she knew him well enough to know that along with being scared, it'd also pissed him off and good.
