Here are a couple of extra scenes/shorts that didn't make it into the main story; Home is Where the Girl Is. Some were cute and I didn't want to just toss them, so here they are for your reading pleasure.

Dragon Lady

One afternoon while Jenny was reading her studies, one of the many that Madame Vastra used to train her young apprentice with, the dark hair beauty's head shot up suddenly.

"Think I am going to call you dragon from now on."

Barely allowing the newspaper that was in her hands to dip low enough for her to see the maiden, the prestigious Victorian mused, "Oh heavens why?"

Flipping through the pages of the ancient book she was reading, the former match girl proclaimed, "According to dis book, the Japanese believed the dragon to be a formidable force to be reckoned with. It is a fierce and highly respected creature."

Dropping the paper in her lap, Madame Vastra exhaled, "Oh my Goddess, please don't call me that."

Twirling a lock of dark hair between her fingers, Jenny quipped, "Besides it sounds so much more threatening than lizard." Not sure how her lover would react to the playful rousing, the servant smirked, "Don't you think Dragon Lady?"

A dangerous glare shot back at her companion instantly causing the human to abruptly cover her mouth to stop herself from laughing any further. Before she knew it, the ancient warrior had reached her feet and was headed towards her. Allowing the chair to fall behind her, Jenny instantly headed for cover. Chasing the woman around the room, Vastra smiled from ear to ear in an equally spirited manner, "Don't you dare… start calling me that."

Winded, the maid asked, "Why not dragon lady?" Hiding behind the wing back chair Vastra had been sitting in only moments before, Jenny poked, "You know dragons have long tongues like that that six foot tongue of yours."

Jenny squealed the later part of her statement as the ancient warrior lunged at her. Finally catching her, the Silurian pressed her lover against the wall. Entrapping her hands high above her head, the matriarch purred, "Now what was that about my tongue my dear?"

The former match girl pressed her lips tightly together announcing she had nothing else to say; at least not when she had been 'captured'. With a quick glance about the room at the Paternoster house, a mischievous grin fluttered over the matriarch's face; one typically seen only in the bed chamber of the two lovers. Inching closer to her wife's face, the lizard woman flicked her tongue and languidly drug it up the side of her lover's face. "I could stop using it altogether if you prefer my dear."

Panic washed over the maiden's face as she frantically nodded, no, no, no. Wrapping one of her legs around Vastra bringing her closer, the dark hair beauty beseeched, "You wouldn't dare."

"Oh but I thought us dragons were a formidable force to be reckoned with."

Hearing her own words used against her, Jenny rolled her eyes. "Don't I ever get to win?"

The prestigious Victorian's face went flat suddenly. With endearing eyes, she cupped the human's face. "You won my heart."

The two engaged in a heart warming kiss that lasted several minutes. Feeling warm all over, the maiden's thumb padded over the delicate scales of Vastra's cheek. "I'm still going to call you my dragon lady."
