Push to Shove (Chapter 35):
Okay, sweetie. Out of EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER in this story, you are the FIRST person to ask me to update. Thank you so much- I appreciate being asked to update soon, and not just expected to on my own. :) I hope you're enjoying the story, and I hope to see more reviews from you!
This will be the second-to-last chapter in Glovarnia. After that, we'll have some TARDIS Time (Thanks to Mizu's ideas) and a few other locations a lot different than the places The Master and Jessie have already visited. Just a teaser. )
The song used is "Doin' It Right" by Daft Punk feat. Panda Bear
Chapter Thirty Six- A Taste of Island Life
"Jessie, come try this!" called The Master as they walked along the beach, walking towards the lush, yet disappearing tropical forests. He stood up tall, grabbing a fruit from the tree. It was about the size of an apple, possibly a tad bit smaller, and was a very odd color. The majority of it was a purple/maroon shade, but in spots it faded into a dark reddish pink color, and then to a yellow-orange. Looking a bit strange for someone who had never seen it before, like Jessie, but somehow it seemed to appear natural to the fruit- like the dark red, scarlet, and even dark orange parts on a peach. Different colors- same taste. "Go on, take a bite." he insisted, handing it to her. Jessie took a bite, her eyes widening in surprise at the taste. After savoring it and swallowing it, she beamed up at him. "Oh my god- that. was. AMAZING! It tasted like a peach, a nectarine, a watermelon, a plum, and- ohmygodthisisamazing!" she said, taking another enormous bite.
"I'm glad you like it," commented The Master satisfactorily as Data sat silently beside him. Jessie handed him the fruit, a lot of it still uneaten. "You want some?" she asked, receiving The Master shaking his head in response. "Fralafruit -the type of fruit that come from most of the planets in this galaxy. This fruit you're eating is called a Muala.- has unexplainable hints of the components that are in Aspirin, which can even be fatal in the smallest doses for Gallifreyans. I've never had it before." he said nonchalantly. Jessie raised an eyebrow, her expression appearing shocked, and also as if she about it spit her bite of the fruit out. Instead, she swallowed, taking a deep breath. "You handed this for me to eat and you had no idea if it was okay for humans or not?!" as she yelled, The Master let out a howl of laughter. "I got you there!" he said, Data looking up at him happily. Jessie held up the fruit to him, as he took a huge bite. "But I was somewhat telling the truth- quite a few fruits form this galaxy have those components, and would kill me like that." he added as the walked along, The Master snapping his fingers to represent how fast he would die.
A few minutes later, they had reached the plaza where they had began their journey -at what seemed almost a lifetime ago. The helmeted DJs had come back up, finishing a bass-pumped, energetic song. The closer they walked towards the crowd, they passed people spraying themselves with spritzer bottles, a misty gas coming from it and evaporating into the air. "What are they doing?" whispered Jessie, walking a little closer to The Master. Instead of The Master replying, Data chimed in. "If you didn't already know- there are chemicals and components in this planet's atmosphere that are also found in an illegal Earth substance known commonly as 'herbal ecstasy'. These components cause sudden happiness and/or bliss, making this a very popular vacation spot across the galaxies. When people are here- but especially during the raves, some species are not affected by the chemicals as much as they'd like to be, or not enough to actually get the good side-effect of bliss and such. There is a refined form of the planet's air in that spray bottle. One sprays it on their facial region, and receives an extra dosage of the chemicals. There is no overdose limit, and the waste products from the spray evaporate into the air as well! Some also are known to attempt to get some free gasses by standing near people who are spraying, too." said Data, The Master looking down at Data, then back at Jessie, pointing to the dog. "What he said- Jessie?!" he called, seeing that she had walked off pass a few people spraying the gas. The Master walked after her, and caught her by the shoulder. She laughed hysterically, looking like she was suddenly having the time of her life. She pulled him by the arm, and dashed into the crowd. "Come on!" she cried, as the next song was about to play.
Doing it right
Everybody will be dancing and will
Feeling it right
Everybody will be dancing and be
Doing it right
Everybody will be dancing and we'll be
Feeling alright
Everybody will be dancing to the -
It was a dance-y tune, but slow and with a slow -but loud- beat. They had made their way into the center of the crowd yet again, reminiscent of hours ago, expect the song sounded slower than the last one they had danced to, and seemed more like a song the DJs would close their gig with. Jessie was smiling like she was having the time of her life, and he could already tell by her fun-filled dance moves that she had taken one sniff of the spray bottle too many. He ignored that for a while, allowing himself to calm down and dance, too.
If you do it right
Let it go all night
Shadows on you break
Out into the light
If you lose your way tonight
That's how you know the magic's right
Doing it right
Everybody will be dancing and will

"Hey, Master?" asked Jessie, dancing a little less complicated as she looked at him while she danced. He did the same, simultaneously dancing and talking to her. "Yes?" he asked, wondering what made her look so curious, yet so confused. "Can I ask you something?" she asked, sounding sheepish. "Of course!" he laughed, smiling.
If you do it right
Let it go all night
Shadows on you break

"Are you gay?"
If he had been eating or drinking something at the time, The Master would have begun to choke. He looked dazed, taking it all in. "What?!" he asked, looking at her. "No! What gave you that impression?!'
"Well, every time I'm around you, you always get flustered and you blush and you stutter an' stuff...so yeah. I was guessing issues with not being attracted to women, and then being in close contact with one, you know?" she said, The Master doubting she'd remember anything about this conversation later, and tried to brush it aside. "So yeah- just wondering. No biggie" she said, going back to dancing, getting a little too close to him for comfort, but at the current time- The Master didn't care.
If you lose your way tonight
That's how you know the magic's right

Data zipped around them, enjoying the rave as well, as Jessie and The Master danced until they didn't think they could stay upright- but kept dancing. So many DJs, songs, dances, and moments they'd never remember because of their tiredness, along with the chemicals in the air and spray bottles.
Oh, they were so going to have a rave hangover in the morning.
If

Lose

Way
To-

That's
How

Right.
