It was an extraordinarily gorgeous day even for fake New New York. The Master and Doctor had taken over a corner of Central Park to try to gather together cricket teams, from visitors or natives, whoever knew or was willing to learn the basic rules and play. Captaining opposing teams, of course. The easy banter back and forth indicated high, good spirits.

	"I know. Still.. A random stranger's ear is always open if you need it in the future," he smiled. "I've been told I'm a good listener." He paused and changed the subject, "I like your outfit." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He took off his sunglasses slowly, folding them into a pocket. "Yeah, pitch," he said, deliberately misinterpreting her question. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	romanathesecond 2009-05-15 11:47 pm UTC (link)

	Her lips twitched. "Quite. It sounds the sort of silly and idiosyncratic the Doctor enjoys. Which is, I suppose, why this game is happening." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
