Something to take the blues away [video]

[mightythinice]

[Ellie clicks on the console. While those who don't know her might think she looks like a normal 14 year old, those that do know her can tell she's trying to distract herself.

She rubs her nose as she ponders how to start this, before thinking that maybe she should even just cut the feed off. But, hell, she made it this far.

Her arm is bandaged up in a rough sling-- something she did herself.]

Sooo... I guess we can talk about what the fuck just happened, or we can talk about something better. Like, okay, I've had some of the kedan read to me?

Guys, guys. Their stories are fucking hilarious. I'm not even sure how someone gets engaged 12 times on accident, but there's a story for that.

And there's a story about the guy who had a huge case of mistaken identity, and owed a stupid amount of debt because someone pretended to be him when gambling.

... And a huge amount of these end up being romance stories.

Don't even fucking ask me.

[she shrugs and offers a little grin]

I asked if there was any stuff about someone pissing off a monster, or going to outer space, but nope. Nothing. Nada.

How fucking weird is that?

It was fun. I took the kids, I used to be a nanny, out and they rode the rides. Personally, I'm not one for roller coasters. Tends to end with me getting sick on the person next to me.

[Still, she feels a little sad that Ellie had never been to such a place. Going to amusement parks and riding roller coasters were part of being a kid.]

Maybe if he shows up with the TARDIS, we can make a stop there. Take you along.

[mightythinice]

You think he wouldn't mind?

[she rests her chin on the palm of her good hand]

'Cause that sounds amazing, seriously. The most I've gotten to do is... well, one time, we flipped the power on at the mall, and rode the old carousel til it broke.

Which wasn't that long, but it was better than nothing.

[parallels]

Definitely not. Besides, he hasn't got a choice because I'm going to tell him he has to.

[Then she speaks again, like she's had a sudden thought.]

You ever been sledding on a turtle? We might still be able to find a bit of ice. Or I can have some made.

[mightythinice]

I’ve never been on the turtle, but Korra did this cool thing last time we hit land. Do you know her?

[can’t hurt to check before she goes on about the sledding adventure with Korra, after all. Needless to say, she was quite impressed with waterbenders, at least]

[parallels]

Yeah, I know Korra.

Nice girl. She does the all the... water stuff.

[Clara waves a hand to indicate that she means waterbending.]

[mightythinice]

Yeah, waterbending! It put almost everything I've ever done to shame.

i'm so sorry for the delay

[parallels]

Yeah.

[Or at least everything she can do just as herself. When you have a time machine at your disposal, its a bit of an advantage.]

I've never seen things like what some people here can do.

it's ok!

[mightythinice]

Me neither. I like it though… But I like the idea of sledding, too. But how are you gonna get some ice? Isn’t it a little too warm for that right now?
