Here we go, on to the final leg of this round of Gallifrey Records fic tennis. (I think I’m mixing sports metaphors, but whatever.) If you need to catch up, here are Part One and Part Two and Part Three. Savior “fic tennis” or “gallifrey records” to get off this crazy ride. Our most excellent prompt for this go-round is courtesy of the fantastically talented and generous littlewhomouse!

The Doctor’s staring at Rose like he expects her to have some sort of answer.

What is she supposed to say? That she’s happy they aren’t married? That’s not true. They don’t need the vows to keep them together – they’re both in this for the long haul, there’s no doubt in her mind. But there’s a spark of want in Rose’s chest when she thinks about being properly married to the Doctor, about people calling him Mr. Tyler. The idea of a wedding band on his ring finger, one that she put there, makes her mouth dry and her heart thump, makes her want to climb right into his lap and stake a claim to the rest of his body, too.

The Doctor’s not the kind of man who abides by the trappings of religion or culture, and neither is Rose. She doesn’t necessarily want the fancy ceremony with a priest and cathedral and big white dress. This wasn’t the way she wanted to marry him, either, in Vegas and stoned and without remembering a single moment of it, but at a certain point … what if it’s the only wedding they ever have?

The silence on the other end of the Doctor’s call is deafening. A soft shuffling sound breaks it, finally, like the Master is rearranging himself – apparently locked inside the boot of a car somewhere.

“How’d you get this phone?” the Master asks, his tone cold and measured.

“Found it in America, of all places. Didn’t know Toclafane was releasing its prototype tech to the Yanks.”

“Drop the sarcasm.”

“This is your doing,” the Doctor snaps. “All of it. The memory loss, the wild antics, you had one of your hired monkeys pretend to be our driver and escort us around town, pushing us exactly where you wanted us to go, right into the most compromising situations you could manage. What was it? Rufis in the champagne?”

As we do, this round of Galilfrey Records fic tennis has reached a second post. To catch up, there’spart one. To skip the drinking and stay in instead, savior “fic tennis” or “gallifrey records.” Our most excellent prompt for this go-round is courtesy of the fantastically talented and generous littlewhomouse!

There’s absolutely nowhere to leg it, they’d be swallowed up by desert terrain in a matter of yards, and having to explain an airlift rescue operation and an apparent wedding to Rose seems like a little too much for him to handle.

Maybe just one or the other, and only if she’s feeling charitable.

“Listen, mate,” the Doctor says. “I seem to have lost my wallet.”

The driver’s face turns murderous and he reaches for the door handle.

Rose wakes to the feeling of something hard and uncomfortable beneath her cheek. She makes a mental note to feed the Doctor an extra sandwich, rolls over, and promptly falls two feet.

The impact startles her fully awake, eyes popping open as a headache screams to life and, oh, not the Doctor, then. A coffee table. She’d fallen asleep on a coffee table. Whose coffee table is this?

She rubs at her eyes, everything swimming in and out of focus for a few moments, before she’s finally able to see. Ah, the hotel suite, Vegas. Of course.

Jesus, what had they done last night?
