[for [info]rude_not_ginger] hello, tell me you know  
Dorothy was not at all sure why she'd been included in this meeting.

As far as she could tell, it was an entirely standard-procedure briefing on the state of the empire, with representatives from the major cities and towns of each of the four countries of Oz gathering in the Royal Conference Chamber at the Emerald Palace to inform Ozma and her officials of important current events. It was mostly policy and dispute settlements, and almost never anything Dorothy could remotely call interesting. She'd yawned once, about twenty minutes in, and Ozma had given her a look that she was positive would show up in a nightmare later that night.

Sure, it had been a while since she'd actually spent much time in Oz, and sure, it was nice knowing what was going on, but to be perfectly honest (and Dorothy always was), nothing much ever changed in Oz anyway, so what was Ozma so ticked about?

Maybe Jellia had spilled the beans about her unexpected return visit just after the last time she left. If Ozma found out she'd brought a stranger to Oz, one who hadn't come by accident, that'd certainly explain her current foul attitude. But it had been a few days into this trip already, and surely if the Empress knew, she'd have said something already? Glinda had kept her mouth shut, that was for sure. Especially with regard to all the myriad questions Dorothy had asked.

Her mind buzzed with them, and the longer she stayed in Oz, the worse she wanted to know the answers to each and every one. Deciding she'd rather be bored to tears, she tried her best to concentrate on what the mayor of Munchkinville had to say, and turn her brain off as much as she possibly could.

TEN things you wish you could say to TEN different people right now:

1. Stop blaming yourself. Right now. It was the right choice.
2. I'll never let you go. No matter what. Maybe that's the most selfish thing I've ever set my mind to.
3. I miss you. I even miss how things tend to go boom when you're around.
4. I want to know what you know, and what you're doing, and why you know what you know and why you're doing what you're doing. I know if I ask you'll just say I ought to be more patient, but it still drives me up the wall.
5. Quit leaving the toilet seat in the bathroom off the library up.
6. Lord, wouldn't Ozma love you.
7. I wish you wouldn't look at me that way when you think I'm not looking.
8. You need to find a nice girl.
9. I'm waiting for the day I hear you've died, and for real this time. Part of me actually wants to hear it so I can stop worrying. I expect it won't be long now. I'm sorry.
10. I know you're happier with us than you let on, I just wish you'd tell me so every now and then.

NINE things about yourself:
1. I've beaten everyone I've ever played at cribbage, except Auntie Em.
2. I will try anything once.
3. I burned my bra in the '60s.
4. I have only two living relatives, and have only had two living relatives for my whole life.
5. I own my own apartment in the Emerald City, even though I have my own official residence at the Emerald Palace.
6. I've had dozens of dogs in my lifetime, mostly shepherds. Toto was the only terrier.
7. I have never been to Venice. (But I'd like to. Hint hint.)
8. When I was a girl I missed going to a traveling carnival because the entire week it was in town I was sick with chicken pox. Still bitter about that.
9. I really dislike the color pink. Awful.

EIGHT ways to win your heart:
1. Treat me as an equal.
2. Show me some respect. I'm not as young as I look.
3. Make me laugh.
4. Surprise me.
5. Teach me something I didn't know.
6. Be friendly to my dogs.
7. Try to keep up.
8. If all else fails, being an alien couldn't hurt.

SEVEN things that cross your mind a lot:
1. Glinda. In general.
2. Worrying about other people.
3. Trying to come up with an escape plan/rescue plan/whatever else is necessary plan.
4. "What would Uncle Henry think if he knew you were acting this way?"
5. Various and sundry questions of a curious nature.
6. Memories of the past. Good and not-so-good.
7. General unhappiness with myself, in one way or another.

SIX things you do before you go to bed:
1. Put on pyjamas.
2. Brush my teeth.
3. Floss.
4. Brush out my hair.
5. Usually read a few pages of a book, to unwind.
6. Wonder.

FIVE people who mean a lot, in no particular order or ranking:
1. Uncle Henry.
2. Aunt Em.
3. Glinda.
4. Ozma.
5. The Doctor.

FOUR things you’re wearing right now:
1. Silver (Bunny) Slippers.
2. Pyjama pants. Sorta green and cream stripes.
3. Flannel nightshirt. Solid green.
4. Underpants. ...not telling.

THREE songs that fit your life perfectly:
1. "Dorothy Dreams Of Tornadoes", Cursive.
2. "Apples In The Trees", Mirah.
3. "300 MPH Torrential Outpour Blues", White Stripes.

TWO things you want to do before you die:
1. Be somebody.
2. Do what's right.

ONE confession:

[for [info]rude_not_ginger] clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable  
If you didn't know otherwise, you'd probably be surprised to find out that the Library is one of Dorothy's favorite places in the TARDIS, but it's true. When she's with the younger version of the Doctor, on the TARDIS that's wooden and gothic, she can often be found there, stretched out on a leather couch, surrounded by flickering candles and a pile of books as tall as she is. Sometimes he'll join her there, chattering away as he rummages through the stacks, attempting some sort of organization, being fully aware that the fairy tale, engrossed in her book, isn't really listening. But it isn't about actually talking, it's about just being together. It's comfortable, and it feels like home. Not the room-- sharing it with someone she cares about.

When she's on the other TARDIS, organic and glowing, it's different. The Library is deeper inside the ship, through twisting corridor after labyrinthine hall, and getting there is like arriving at a great art-nouveau cathedral, with a ceiling domed and tall as the sky, lights seeming to hover like fairies in the air itself. The shelves seem to grow from the walls and the floor. All the actual furniture looks mismatched and old, patched and worn, as if it's all been rescued from the curb at one time or another. It does have the good fortune of all being supremely comfortable, though, so there's been many an occasion where Dorothy finds herself curled up on the beat-up old brown couch, very nearly dozing off with her nose in a book.

Today is one of those days.

There's nothing wrong with that, on a lazy Sunday afternoon, but alone? On the TARDIS? When there's adventures to be had? That's just a little sad, don't you think? Dorothy might think so, if she weren't about thiiiis close to nodding off. The TARDIS is ever so helpful, dimming the lights. Or is it just her eyes closing?

Does it matter?

Later today I will post a thing I wrote (YAY FINALLY :|) but as of right now HAVE A CRY FOR HELP:

Photobucket has crapped all over my layout, hooray! I need a new one, toute suite. SUGGESTIONS??
 
 
The Prodigal Damsel
I've given my character a healthy dose of Veritaserum and now she has to tell the truth. What does this mean for you? Ask my character questions about anything and everything and she will truthfully answer it. So, go ahead and ask what you want. She can't beat around the bush with half-truths.



And considering half-truths are her her bread and butter, this should be pretty fun. QUESTION AWAY.

Give me one option and I will:

Option 1: Write out a ficlet/drabble/something detailing why and how they got together with one of your characters.

Option 2: Write out a ficlet/drabble/something detailing why they will never speak to each other again.

Option 3: Write out a ficlet/drabble/something detailing why your character will never forget them.

Catch: I choose which of your characters (if you have more than one >_>).
