Rivkah & Time Lord ;; 1x1

[Rivkah]

"And leave you here?" he snapped, "I'm nine-hundred-some years old, Xavia, I think I know better!" He dragged her next to him by her arm, aiming his sonic at the beast. Apparently it had sensitive hearing, because the sound waves made it howl. Never turning off the sonic waves, he started to run, pulling Xavia along next to him. Personally, he was a bit irritated she, the younger one, was treating him like a child.

(Your signature is truly brilliant :3)

Xavia ripped her arm from the Doctor's grip, and then the sonic from his hand. "Do not use this on a creature."She growled, eyes aflame. "These animals are not used to such technology, nor will they ever be. You could have killed it. " She sighed, "Every creature has a right to live, and one must only kill unless it is necessary for life. " She held the screwdriver out to him, gaze softened. "Here."

{{ *SQUEE* Thank you. I couldn't find many good Christmas pictures that weren't already overused in siggies, but it took me forever and I finally got it looking nice. ^-^ }}

Jaw set, the Doctor snatched his sonic screwdriver back. "Xavia, I am not as naive as you think. I would never prolong an exposure to this long enough to kill it. You seem to be forgetting just a while ago you nearly killed someone with your own. The very one that I was nearly killed with," he said behind gritted teeth. Then his expression relaxed slightly, and he said softly, "Please do not treat me as if I need to be taken care of. I am more than used to being alone in the universe. I've seen things that drive most people mad, and I don't think I was ever sane to begin with." He placed a hand on her shoulder, squeezing it briefly before he pulled back, turning and walking back toward the TARDIS solemnly.

"Then stop treating me like a child!" Xavia called ahead before stalking past him and the TARDIS. She returned to Tjande's pen, mounted the mare once more, and took off towards the mountains. She wasn't in the mood for company at the moment, feeling guilty for snapping at the Doctor, but also a bit peeved with him. Once she was finally free of the village, she slowed Tjande to a walk and smiled lightly, hugging the mare's neck and setting her head between Tjande's ears.

The Doctor chose to ignore this and slipped into the blue box. Greeting him, it shut the doors and the lights brightened. He sighed, smiling up at the ceiling, before flopping down on the jump seat. "I dunno, old girl. I guess I'm just tired of everything," he muttered gently with a sigh, before straightening up a bit and propping up his feet on the console. The silence that now enveloped him was relieving. Finally. Silence. He used to hate silence... Now what? It seemed relaxing. He closed his eyes, dozing off.

Xavia smiled, looking upwards. It had gotten dark, and the stars she knew so well were shining against the vast blackness. "Oh how I have missed these stars Tjande." She murmured, gazing up at the little dots of light and the three moons. "Stars, I feel terrible now." Xavia muttered to Tjande, "I shouldn't have talked to him like that." She sighed, flopping onto the mare's neck, her blue-green mane covering Xavia's face. "Perhaps I should apologize." Sitting up, Xavia urged Tjande into a gallop, dashing back through the field and into the village. She put Tjande back into her pen and sprinted to the TARDIS. Peeking in, Xavia smiled gently, seeing the sleeping Doctor. Shutting the door, she decidied to sit outside and look at the stars. Stretching out on the grass, she placed her hands behind her head.

The Doctor woke a while later to find it was dark on the planet. He slipped off the jump seat, glancing at the view screen before he peeked out of the blue doors. He resisted the urge to chuckle as he saw her, staying quiet and shutting the door silently. He wouldn't disturb her, she was probably still angry at him. So, he slipped into the kitchen to make himself some tea. He almost wished to see London now. What time period, though? No matter what time period, for some reason, the Earthy part of his mind was saying it was December. Ah, Christmas. It haunted him even in the middle of another planet. Like an... Earth sense or something.

Rolling over onto her stomach and staring at the blue box after the doors shut, Xavia raised an eyebrow. Sitting cross legged in front of the doors, Xavia knocked on the wood. "Doctor? I'm sorry." She called, "Can I come home, please?" She hoped he didn't mind her calling the TARDIS 'home'. But in all honesty, that's what it was to her. her home.

[Rivkah]

The Doctor pondered for a moment as he listened to her. With a sigh, he walked over to the console, tapping a command shift button and snapping his fingers. The doors swung open. "Sure, Xavia," he said quietly, under his breath. Though, he was really fighting a smile. He couldn't stay angry at her for more than a day, apparently.

[Starryy Skiies]

Xavia stood, stepping into the TARDIS. She stared at the floor, shoulders sagging in defeat. "
'M sorry for treating you like a child and for snapping at you." She said quietly, scuffing her boot on the floor in hopes he wasn't too angry.
