Hello!

[Clara waggles her fingers at the camera. She looks somewhat happily frazzled, dressed in a bathrobe and holding a cup of tea.]

Should have announced this sooner, but April was a bit mad. Cosima Neihaus and I are getting married down at the De Chima Planetarium tonight, bit of an informal thing, so if you want to come just bring comfy shoes and a bottle of champagne. And I hope you're not allergic to dogs!

(( ooc: I'll link the log for the wedding when it goes up later! As long as your character isn't looking to cause mischief, consider it okay for them to be there. ))

[ DING DING DING, Clara has 100% gotten it ]

Course I knew her last name! It's Neihaus, you just said it.

[oddbod]

What are her sister's names?

[She's onto you.]

[helpline]

[ sssssssshit. Okay, he's got this. ]

Sarah? And the one with the pigs. And maybe another?

[oddbod]

Partial credit. Sarah, Sarissa, and MK are the ones who are here, though I haven't actually met that last one. A bit reclusive, from what I know.

[Guess who doesn't know about MK's eccentric new granddad...........]

Better brush up, 'cause there are even more back home.

[helpline]

Partial credit's better than no credit. Haven't heard of that last one, though.

[and suddnely private!]
Actually, that's a lie, MK's my flatmate. Don't spread that info around though, it's a bit hush hush. [ said as he taps the side of his nose in a 'keep this a secret' sort of gesture. ] And I don't know why you say she's one of Cosima's sisters, the two don't look a thing alike.

private.

[oddbod]

Doctor, they're genetic identical. You're just faceblind. You couldn't even tell when I was old.

private.

[helpline]

They might be genetically identical but again, they don't look a thing alike. Anyway, when did you get old?

[ further proving he is faceblind as shiiiiiiit. ]

permaprivate.

[oddbod]

At Christmas, when we dreamed that you left me for sixty-two years.

[helpline]

Oh, that? I don't know why you're saying you looked old back then. You looked the same as you always do.

[ It's just said in a very matter-of-fact tone. ]

[oddbod]

Maybe it was the wrinkles, and the grey hair, and the osteoporosis.

[But it isn't said with any malice. There's fondness in her eyes.]

I'd hate to see myself through your eyes.

[helpline]

Likewise. I'm afraid you'll be too nice.

[ After all, he's not a good man, no matter what Clara thinks. But he's trying. ]

[oddbod]

I think I'd be just as nice as you deserve.

[Which is to say, too nice at times, and just mean enough at others.]

[helpline]

I'm pretty sure you'll end up being nicer.

[oddbod]

That's called being best friends.

[helpline]

Is that what we are now? Best friends? Funny, thought it was something else.

[ platonic awful world-destroying soulmates or something. ]

I don't mind best friends, though. I'll get us necklaces.

[oddbod]

"Best friends" is the normal human word for it, I think.

[Most normal humans don't have platonic world-destroying soulmates, she has to remind him.]

[helpline]

Clara and the Doctor. Best friends. Or, even better, besties.

[ they are 100% besties and he will call her that until the end of time just to be obnoxious. ]

[oddbod]

... Yeah, no, still can't get used to "besties". Where did you pick that up? Mabel Pines?

[helpline]

Probably. D'you know, I still have glitter in various corners of my room from some of the art projects we did together?

[oddbod]

I do too, and that's just from a card she sent me.

[helpline]

I'm just thankful that the arts and crafts room of the TARDIS accidentally got jettisoned a while back. Imagine if some glitter got loose in there.
