. . . and I guess I just wanted to tuck myself away somewhere where I could be alone come nightfall and this was the best excuse I came up with for myself.

[onlyoneof]

Listen, if this is getting to you that much maybe I can talk to the Doctor about getting you a room in the TARDIS.

[skepticalities]

It's not . . . I'll be okay. I'm just— is it weird to say I'm nervous?

[onlyoneof]

... nervous why?

[skepticalities]

I don't know how much I'll change tonight. If it's entirely, fine, but last night was . . . [gestures with one hand, holding a mug that he was halfway through cleaning in the other.] Awkward? To say the least.

[onlyoneof]

... I didn't mind.

[skepticalities]

No one did. Which is how I can tell that I'm being an idiot.

[onlyoneof]

So you'll be okay.

[skepticalities]

I know. I'm trying. It's a process.

[onlyoneof]

Alright.

[skepticalities]

So, ah . . . are you in for the night?

[onlyoneof]

Yeah, I am.

[skepticalities]

[starts to put dishes away.]

What did you work on?

[onlyoneof]

The barrier, and trying to figure out if the moon is really full or if it's the barrier making it look full.

[skepticalities]

[tilts his head to the side, considering that.]

. . . it'd make sense.

[onlyoneof]

Yeah, but I haven't been able to get any consistent data.

[skepticalities]

I guess not, huh.

[finishes putting stuff away and wipes down the counters.]

[onlyoneof]

It would've been too easy.

[skepticalities]

That's life for you. And, ah, this place.

[onlyoneof]

This place, particularly.

[skepticalities]

Yeah, pretty much. ... I'm heading back upstairs. Are you coming?

[onlyoneof]

Yeah, I'm tired.

[skepticalities]

You're always tired.

[onlyoneof]

I work very hard.

[skepticalities]

I'm very proud of you.

[heading back to the room!]
