Still, the Doctor refuses to adhere to at least 75 percent of the Torchwood Guidebook for Field Agents, which is why they’re always assuming such elaborate undercover disguises.
He’s rifling through the wardrobe, chucking things over his shoulder as he goes, while Rose tries to stay out of the flight path.
“Let me just find one last thing,” and with a grunt he yanks out a pair of boots. “My wellies!”
Rose sits on the edge of the bed and watches him shove everything he’s unearthed into a pile. If that’s how he’d packed for vacation, it was just as well they weren’t going.
“Who are we this time, Doctor?” These get-ups weren’t initially Rose’s favorite, but she’d come to learn that without time and space and the TARDIS to roll the dice, the Doctor was at a bit of loss when it came to the more random aspects of his life. Plus, it made him really, really happy.
“We are — pause for effect —”
“You know it negates the effect when you say —”
“Pause over. We are bird watchers!” He pulled a pair of binoculars from the pile with a flourish. “I’m Doctor Samuel Gladstone, that’s doctor of ornithology, and you are my ever-so-eager graduate student, Michelle Hasselboch. Wow, that is awfully fun to say! Hasselboch.” He appeared to be letting the word slide around like a mouthful of juice.
Rose squinted at the binoculars and then at the Doctor, ready for their usual negotiations.
“Done, except I’m Doctor Samantha Gladstone and you’re my eager grad student Michael.”
“But, Rose! You look so much younger, no one is going to believe that!”
“I’m a girl genius,” she stopped, daring him to contradict her. “And besides, think of all the introducing yourself you’ll get to do. You’ll get to say your last name at least five times.”
“Make it ten and we’re done.”
“Ten it is.” (x)
This is a thing I wrote. I regret not making all my 10.5 stuff exist in the same universe, but I don’t even know how that would’ve worked. So, three different universes it is, I guess.
