Phew! Well, am I glad that's all out the way. D'you know, I'm exhausted. Everything from the past couple of months is catching up with me - now I know I'm getting old.

Still, guess I've got time now, touch wood, for a nice quiet Chris --

.... Christmas.

I haven't done my Christmas shopping yet.

Bugger.

You still have time.

Well, yeah, but still, how'd I manage to leave everything this late? I've got more people to buy for than ever this year.

You had more important matters to attend to.

True, I suppose Christmas shopping kind of takes a back seat to saving the multiverse and all that.

I think you've got a good excuse on being last-minute this year.

[if you're actually lying on the ground like that, Haruhi is ttly sitting on you]

Let's go shopping!

Somehow, I suspect no one you're buying for will complain if they get it a little late.

You do a lot for everyone, Doctor. I'm sure no one'll mind if sit this Christmas out.

I'm glad everything's okay.

Mmm, true, but am I a time-traveller or aren't I? This is pretty bad, even for me.

[He is, and is probably looking up at her all bemused-like.]

Sounds like a good plan to me, but we're going off-planet to do it.

Just as well, because that's what's going to be happening.

Do you at least know what you're getting for the people on your list?

True, but I feel a little out of the Christmas loop, if you know what I mean. I have time, 48 hours is enough... isn't it?

So am I. Which reminds me, we haven't spoken in a while. How are things on your end?

Some of them. Others are a little more difficult.

[and now she's leaning back, looking a bit lost]

...Off planet?

Heh, I hear you on that one. Sometimes you just gotta guess on 'em, and hope for the best. Where you heading to shop at?

Well yeah! If we're going to go shopping, we're going somewhere that has a decent enough selection. I mean, no offence, 21st century Earth shopping is brilliant, but it's a bit lacking for some of the things I've got in mind.

...I'm not going.

Uh... sure.

They've been fine. A little busier than usual. I haven't been able to keep up with the community as much as I normally do, which is why I'm... not really sure what your post is about...

Somewhere off-planet, I think. Don't get me wrong, I love Earth, but there's some things you can only get in other places in the universe.

...

Well, okay then. I'll do two shopping trips. One here on Earth, and then one off-planet for the other stuff I want to fetch.

Sounds like a good time. Good luck to ya, Doc. You've got two days yet.

You don't sound too sure.

Oh, you mean the being exhausted bit? I was involved in a rescue mission a few days ago, you know how it is.

Well, I'm not too sure that I'd be able to pull it off, but if anyone can, I guess it'd be you.

Ah. A rescue mission for who, if you don't mind my asking?

How long will you be gone?
