I believe that, though I somehow managed to avoid becoming a faerie, I will not be able to work in the Scavengers' Yard until this [pen taps] outfit goes away.

[A pause]

Do the names Gallifrey or Rassilon mean anything to anyone, besides myself?

Fred?

You are on fire?

[burnt_orangesky]

Nothing dangerous, nothing that would hurt me. There is a contraption that is part of this costume; it keeps letting off sparks. It may be enough to set cloth on fire, but I am not willing to test to see if it truly does or not.

It is annoying and startling, but mostly harmless.

[spandexisyouth]

So you are sparking? Are you able to fix food and do other things that are normal?

[burnt_orangesky]

Yes, and I believe so. I just look very silly, that is all.

[spandexisyouth]

If you need help you only have to say so and I will help you!

[burnt_orangesky]

I will bear it in mind, thank you.

[Pause]

Ah, before I forget--I also will not be able to go running with you in the mornings until this goes away, thanks to these ridiculous shoes.

[spandexisyouth]

You are welcome!

Oh. I understand! Soon enough we will run together again!
