Title: Clearing the Air (Time Lord Style)
Rating: PG13-ish?
Genre: gen
Word Count: 500 :D
Pairings or Characters: 10th Doctor/Rose, possible implied Doctor/other

Warnings: Basically just a conversation in the TARDIS, but if you squint, hop on one foot, have two hearts and are from a planet that starts with Gal, this could be downright racy ;)
Summary: Rose has been curious for a while now.....
~~~~~~~
Rose perched on the railing, studying his legs a while before she spoke.
"Doctor?"
He stopped stripping wires, but remained beneath the console. "Rose?"
"I've been wondering...."
He could hear her shifting on the railing and clearing her throat.
“I’m just curious...." More adjustments were made and her voice faded once again.
"Curiosity is good. Mostly,” he helped, sliding out to look at her. “Well, unless you're a cat. Not sure where that phrase developed, since there had to be a few who were. Otherwise they would’ve died out, which we know didn't happen. Won't happen. Hasn't not happened yet but certainly....”
Knowing he could go on for hours, Rose took her chance. Squeezing her eyes shut, she pushed her question out as fast as possible:
"DoTimeLordshavesex?"
Silence. Followed by more silence. No more cat contemplations, just silence. After a few seconds, Rose slowly opened her eyes.
She obviously had his full attention now.
Her cheeks reddened quickly and she rambled on.
“There’s that Cassandra thing....I sorta remember....plus you snogged Reinette, but otherwise I know nothing about your species and their...." she paused, looking for an adequate word, "....practices."
"Ah. That kissing thing." He leaned back, his expression now that little smirk that always made Rose suspect there was more to the joke. "Not entirely unpleasant I suppose," he continued, “just kind of....moist. Obviously, you’re not the only species who have a thing for fluid exchange, but there’re more efficient ways of reproducing.”
Rose snickered. “’Efficiency’ isn't always good.”
"True," he responded with a cheeky grin, “Also other ways to have fun and give comfort."
Feeling bolder, she smiled mischievously and continued, "So....what’s Time Lord equivalent to....fun and comfort?"
There was a deafening pause; long enough that Rose regretted asking.
Slowly, he moved some tools and stood up.
Then he was stalking towards her with such sensual ferocity that she was taken aback. Seeking an explanation, her eyes met his....
...and she saw everything.

He gently rested his hands against hers, causing her mind to slam sharply into focus, breathless and acutely aware of her precarious balance and his new position, standing between her parted knees. If he moved, she would fall.
She never wanted him to move.
Fingertips danced lightly against hers, breath caressed her face, two hearts reached for hers.
He was surrounding her completely and she breathed deeply.....more than just air.....part of his very being.....slivers of his soul tickling golden in her mind.
All she could see were his eyes.
Breaking her gaze, he bowed down to lightly caress her ear with his lips. She became unbearably aware of her own heartbeat, in sync with the pulse of the TARDIS.
She drifted, listening to the eternity between seconds.
"Oh, Rose," he exhaled, ruffling her hair and sending a shiver up her spine. Her heart stopped, but somehow, she didn't care.
Entwining their fingers tighter, he directed her focus to their clasped hands.
"What did you think this was?”

*HUGS*

Date: 2014-01-21 01:38 am (UTC)How does that old joke go? Take any word, put it in front of 'porn', and you have Doctor Who (i.e.: hair!porn, tie!porn, scarf!porn, screwdriver!porn, fez!porn, and of course hand!porn)

Date: 2014-01-21 02:05 am (UTC)Either way, I thought it was a lovely drabble. And it made total sense, too-that a race as stodgy as the Time Lords would look at hand holding as intimate or fanciful.

Date: 2014-02-02 04:25 am (UTC)LOL
I would apologize, but I'm giggling too hard to type with a straight face ;) I've probably talked to you over there a couple times! Escape beacon is now out of charge from overuse…..only reason I'm here now is because I set an alarm to remind me to come vote.
….and don't give my brain permission to write more! Already have so many competing plot lines in my head it's worse than a daytime soap 0_o

Date: 2014-01-21 01:31 am (UTC)Oh, and Hello! After I got some sleep I realized that when we were chatting last night, I knew who you are from here, but I was anon and we'd never actually met, so you didn't know me. How very Doctorish of us, lol
Alas, I found no magical machete, and fear that my editing to get this under 500 makes it seem a bit rushed. <---And that would be my OCD I was talking about ;D
Talk to you later, I'm sure :)
*HUGS*

Date: 2014-01-21 01:40 am (UTC)LOL!! Well. I did not mind. I figured this either might be the 'Anon' I was chatting to, or it would be someone else who posted over the next few days. *Beams* And it is very Doctorish indeed (which made it even more fun)!
Happens to us all! One day we shall find that magical machete. Until then, we have to agonise over every cut we have to make.
Indeed, m'dear! Looking forward to it!

Date: 2014-02-02 04:26 am (UTC)I tried to make this work on more than one level, even with the editing to get under 500, so I really appreciate the comments :D

Date: 2014-02-06 10:36 pm (UTC)Editing is always a pain. Keeping to the word count is the joy of the challenge.
You are very welcome!
