They were interrupted rather rudely by Jack, who would not, could not, be ignored. Rose tugged away her hands and the Doctor let them go reluctantly, sighing. She blushed as red as a tomato and clicked on Jack…
Fully functional force field – yes, I have tried saying that when I'm drunk says: Rose? I don't mean any offence with that remark – actually, you shouldn't be taking offence to that remark! Are you there?
Rose says: I'm here. So is the Doctor.
There was an uncomfortable silence, even over a computer a thousand miles away. Finally –
Fully functional force field – yes, I have tried saying that when I'm drunk says: Oh.Has he kissed you yet?
Rose stared at the computer screen, uncomprehending what Jack was saying – or more bluntly, telling the Doctor what he should do if he hadn't done it already. You couldn't get more frank than that. Rose didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Because it was so Jack, she laughed.
The Doctor kindly gave her some space by going over to his own computer, which Rose was somewhat grateful for. Already she missed his presence, not that she rejected with a passion his decision to leave.
Rose says: No – why would he?
She desperately hoped he would.
Fully functional force field – yes, I have tried saying that when I'm drunk says: … You're kidding me! He's crazy about you – and I'm going to be a stick in the mud and say that it's mutual.
Rose says: What do you mean?
Fully functional force field – yes, I have tried saying that when I'm drunk says: Well, there are two ways. Mutual as in, you're just as crazy about him, or mutual as in, I'm crazy about you too.
Rose says: … I don't believe the last one.
Fully functional force field – yes, I have tried saying that when I'm drunk says: I'm wounded. ;)
Rose says: Knowing you, you would be.
Fully functional force field fried – yes, I have tried saying that when I'm drunk says: Ouch. That went deep.
Rose says: Nah.
Fully functional force field fried – yes, I have tried saying that when I'm drunk says: What is the Doctor's address – or does he have one?
Rose says: Yep – but wait, he didn't add you?
Fully functional force field fried – yes I have tried saying that when I'm drunk says: Nope.
Rose says: I'm gonna have a little talk with him… Foxy-underscore-Doctor at hotmail dot com.
Never doubted 'em, never will – glad you're there, D and R – you must allow me to be the godfather says: ROFL ROFL ROFL!!Rose says: What?!
Rose blushed hard and wished the ground would swallow her up whole when she read Jack's new name.
Rose says: CHANGE IT NOW, YOU IDIOT!
Never doubted 'em, never will – glad you're there, D and R – you must allow me to be the godfather says: What? –innocent, wicked grin-
Rose says: JACK!
Suddenly a message popped up from the Doctor on her toolbar.
Like a squashed banana peel says: Heya, Rose.
Rose says: Oh GOSH… Doctor, DON'T LOOK AT JACK'S NAME!!
Ricky the Tin Dog says: You know, when you say that, it means that he's obviously going to look at it.
Rose says: MICKEY. I forgot you were here!
Ricky the Tin Dog says: Oh yeah, that's me… you treat me like I'm dirt, Rose! Like I'm NUTHIN! (A/N: I think I've used that line in at least three of my stories – I loved it like nothing else when he said that in Boom Town. He was like, sobbing – poor Mickey!)
Rickey the Tin Dog has left the conversation
Rose says: Time to add someone new? XD
Like a squashed banana peel says: OH NO—
Never doubted 'em, never will has been added to the conversation
Never doubted 'em, never will says: What now, Rose? Wha -
Rose says: It's obvious you've never done adding to a conversation before.
Never doubted 'em, never will says: Lay off.
Barbequed Hamster says: Hey, Jack.
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: Yo.
Rose says: Doctor, where do you get all of your bizarre names?!
Barbequed Hamster says: What do you mean, 'bizarre'?!? Was .Lord of Time bizarre??
Rose says: Not exactly… but Barbequed Hamster is. And what about Like a squashed banana peel?
Barbequed Hamster says: Fine! I'll change it!
Rose says: I didn't mean – oh, never mind.
Tea man says: Better?
Rose says: …No.
Tea man says: hufft! Picky, picky!
Rose says: Doctor…
Alligator Pie, Alligator Pie, if I don't get some I think I'm gonna die says: Better?
Rose says: DOCTOR! Just leave the bloody name alone!
Alligator Pie, Alligator Pie, if I don't get some I think I'm gonna die says: No matter how difficult the situation, there is no need to shout.
Rose says: Okay, you can stop there, Doctor – wait a minute… HOW DID YOU GET ITALICS???
Alligator Soup, Alligator Soup, if I don't get some I think I'm gonna droop says: Easy. I'm an expert hacker – this program is so simple; it's basic.
Rose says: Just lay off the Dennis Lee, okay?
Alligator Soup, Alligator Soup, if I don't get some I think I'm gonna droop says: Wait a minute! I need to do Alligator Stew first!
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: This is probably the quietest I've been in a long time.
Rose says: YOU TOO??!?!???!?!?!
Alligator Stew, Alligator Stew, if I don't get some I don't know what I'll do says: Okay, I'm done.
Rose says: Okay, now LEAVE DENNIS LEE ALONE. Do you hear me? Leave him ALONE.
Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea… says: Don't you mean 'Do you read me?' I can't hear you, Rose. One, you're half way across the room and two, you're not speaking – let alone moving your lips. Maybe you should rephrase that?
Rose says: OH NO! Leave Peter Paul and Mary ALONE!!!! –hides face in hands-
Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea… says: "Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff, and brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff, oh!" SING ALONG, JACK!
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: -screws up face handsomely- You're crazy, but you're on. Bet I could beat you!
Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea… says: Wanna bet?
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: You're on – the whole song. I pride myself on the memorization of all verses.
Rose says: You obviously haven't heard him sing, then.
Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea… says: Ready? One, two, three.
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sails, Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff's gigantic tail – all the kings and princes would bow when e're they came, and pirates ships would lower their flags when Puff roared out his name.
Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea… says: (Head start! No fair!)Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea, and frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff, and brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff – oh!

Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys,
Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea… says: A dragon lives forever but not so little boys, painted wings and giant rings make way for other toys. One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more – and Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar. Oh!

Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea… says: His head was bent with sorrow – green scales fell like rain. Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane,
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: What the heck? I thought that was it!
Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea… says: Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave, so Puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave – Oh! Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea and frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee – Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea and frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee – KICK ME, SLICK PANTS!

Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea… says: What do you mean!?!? It's the song!
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: So? I didn't know the last verse! So technically I finished it before you!
Puff the Magic Dragon lived by the sea… says: Nope. You skipped the first verse.
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: Dang it. Oh well. Congratulations. Rose? You there?
Rose says: … unfortunately.
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: Hah ha. Was it that cruel? XD
Rose says: Are you KIDDING? The Doctor was butchering that song!!
Barbequed Banana says: Was not!
Rose says: Was too!
Barbequed Banana says: Was not!
Rose says: … fine, I'm not going to argue with you.
Barbequed Banana says: -whines- Rose…
Rose says: What?!
Barbequed Banana says: I want you to argue with me! You're cute when you're annoyed.
Rose says: Thanks… for the compliment… I guess??
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: Trust me, take what you can get.
Barbequed Banana says: Oh, don't worry – there's plenty more where that came from.
Doubt will take you far – in the direction you do not always wish to go says: Whoop – sorry, folks. I hate to do this, but I got to jet. Tosh just came in with a triple homicidal case. When you come down Doc, give us a hand, why don't you – since currently my paramedic is concussed and unconscious…?
Rose gave a little start when she suddenly remembered that Owen was still lying on the floor, exactly that – concussed and unconscious. She spun around in her chair and noticed with a wince that Owen was trying to get up. She scooted off and gently touched his arm, trying to support him. She didn't have time to worry about the Doctor; it was all she could do to brace herself for Owen's weight. Apparently he had been watching her, for as soon as she had touched Owen, the Doctor came whooshing over.
"Leave him alone for at least a minute," Rose muttered to the Doctor through gritted teeth as Owen began to blink to get a hold on his surroundings.
"If you'll stop touching him," the Doctor returned jealously.
"Doctor! What's with the jealous boyfriend attitude going on today?" Rose asked, more than slightly annoyed.
"Boyfriend?" Owen mumbled, almost inaudible. With a sigh Rose twisted him around and dropped him in a rolling chair that kind of, um, went…
KA-BOING
ROLL-ROLL-ROLL
K-RASH
Into a few printers, scanners, photocopiers, sharp computer tables and finally – his face went smack dab into – the half open door. Rose winced a little as Owen passed out again and the Doctor snickered openly.
