Yeah, but I've been training Jeff since before we ever got here. He's a good boy. He knows not to attack anything living unless I give him the go ahead.

[ Hearing his name, Jeff's head pops up, and he chimes in: ] Jeff good boooyyyy!

[ Gwen laughs, reaching down to pet him on the fin. ]

That's right, bud. You're a good boy.

[ But, back to the topic of the Doctor. Gwen nods, face turning a bit more somber. ]

Yeah. That Doctor had just been through a lot... I don't know how much he's told you, and I don't want to go spilling the beans on stuff he'd rather keep secret, but... He had a reason to be so surly.

Definitely a good boy, Jeff. [Ok, that was actually moving from disturbing to incredibly cute. It probably took some getting used to though.]

The Doctor has told me a great many things, but not everything. I don't know that I have the time in my life to know all of the things he's been through. But yes... He has a lot of reasons to be surly over that.

He's doing better these days though, and I'm glad for it. Will you be at the commitment?

[ Satisfied that his status as Good Boy is not in question by anyone present, Jeff waddles off to go find something to chew on.

Gwen collapses back onto her sofa and kicks up her feet, smiling at the thought of being invited to The Doctor's wedding-- TWICE. ]

Yeah, I'll be there. My tiny shipper heart couldn't handle missing out.

Mmmm, there is something to finding love in this place isn't there? Not where you would expect to find it, so you want to help watch it kindle and burn, do you not?

Makes it feel like a better place.

Yeah... It kind of makes the bullshit a lot easier to tough out. Like... Yeah, we're gonna be psychologically, emotionally, and physically tortured and maimed and might die multiple times, but... At least we found love?

[onerthes]

And we're not alone. [She bit her lip and worried it a little.] Sex just... isn't the same as love, is it? That's... something I've learned pretty surely.

I'm very glad you've found it.
