[ The Doctor simply nods to the dreamer as they find themselves in The TARDIS console room. He's flying around the console, as par usual, hitting random things and random dials. Sitting on his head is a cowboy hat. Somehow, it just works with the bowtie, suspenders and green coat. Don't ask. ]

Right then! I've got a special treat in mind. [ He turns away from the console, facing the dreamer with a smile on his face. He crosses his arms over his chest. ] I've got the TARDIS set up to land on one day of the year - any year - any place in any year! One special day. It comes around every year but it's the day that almost everyone looks forward to. All I have to do is hit the randomize blinker and we're off!

Call it a present! You'll understand when we land.

(( ooc: non-event post for December! The Doctor is taking your characters to a place they've never been before on December 24th--Christmas Eve! Just head on over to the R.N.G. and leave the number you picked somewhere in your post. The numbers are from 1-5. It can be brackets, subject header, whatever~ but you won't know where your character is going until they do! ALSO: This is a canon update post to post-Closing Time (6.11). The Doctor is off on his round about last tour before he heads to his death. Hence the present to you all. ))

[ At first, she pouts because he's not telling her what day they're going to be visiting.. but her expression lightens up considerably. Like that, she's bolting upstairs so she can find the wardrobe but then stops at the top to look down. ]

... where's the wardrobe again? Eheh...

[ A sigh. He gestures to one of the hallways. Honestly, it's a dream, so she doesn't need the long direction list. ]

'kay! Be right back~! [ Just because it's a dream, doesn't mean that Usagi still won't be polite and ask for directions! ... ~~There's no telling if she can get lost in a dream as well as in the waking world.~~ After a few minutes, she comes bounding back into the main room with her own hat and.

She's so chipper when she's back on the main floor. ]

Got one!

Brilliant. [ Nose tap! ] Ready to go?

Mmmhm! [ And like that, she's already making her way to the door with one arm pumped up in excitement. ] I'm so ready!

[ He grins and rushes straight to the doors, gently pushing her aside. No, no. He opens the doors. The Doctor then pushes them out and pushes Usagi out into...

the snowy streets of Victorian London. ]

[ And without fail, Usagi's eyes widen with excitement at where they've landed. She recognizes without fail that they're in a European country. She still doesn't know what the date is, but, the sounds of Christmas carolers filter in her ears along with the sounds of silver bells and people chattering in the streets.

Turning her head, she glances at the Doctor with a curiously happy expression. ]

Is.. it Christmas? Is today Christmas?!

[ That grin turns into a smile as he holds his arms out wide and does a twirl. There's a bit of snow not he ground - not much. The Doctor turns to her with a smile. ]

Happy Christmas, Usagi.

It's Christmas! Merry Christmas!

[ She bounds over, moving to give the Doctor a huge hug before she does a full fledged stop. ]

... This is terrible! I haven't gotten you a present yet!

[ He picks her up in a hug and twirls her around. ]

Nah. I don't need any presents.

[ Not that she doesn't appreciate the hug, but she's hugging him back! But, she pulls away just enough to give him an unsure look. ]

You don't? Really? But it's Christmas! It's the season to eat lots of Christmas cake and get presents from people!

I'm not a present getting sort of bloke. Present giving sort of bloke who wears a bowtie? That's me.

Hoooooo.... [ There's a bit of staring here before she adjusts her hat and then looks about. She may or may not be trying to plot something. ]

Well then. Christmas! Here! What kind of things do they do differently here?

That's what exploring is for! More singing, less TV. In fact, TV hasn't even been invented yet!

Ehh?! No TV? [ It's such a strange concept that she has to find the first window into a normal Victorian home and peer in to see for herself. ] .. Woah. Not even a radio.

Take it up to the ones who invented radio waves! They're not around quite yet.

Yeah, but that'll take up too much time! [ She's about to pull away from the window when she catches the sight people moving around with platters of snacks. ] We're here for foo-- I mean Christmas!

Food? [ He laughs. ]

[ Bluuuuuuush. ] I like food, okay!

There is plenty of it!

But it belongs to other people! [ How easy she forgets that this is a dream... ] I mean.. we can't just go in there and ask to join them for dinner, right?

That all depends on who you know... and how nice they feel.

.... Well then who do you know, Doctor?

The Queen.

Eh?! No way!
