River sure is bossy. Voicetesting. Spoilers likely in comments.
Are you really sure you're up to this, dear? It's not just anyone can take on little ole me.
Well, clearly we'll have to change a few things first. That name, for example - that will have to go. Can't have him making jokes about it all the time, now, can we? Never mind that it was a perfectly good sonic trowel. I know what he prefers.
Besides, it doesn't quite capture my... essence.
I'm sure you'll think of something. Then, you can find us somewhere exciting to go.
Run along now, I haven't got all day!

[It will be like the 'roots of the sunset' all over again. Which, he will still tease her about that too. But that doesn't mean he doesn't hate himself because River didn't think he cared, or that he wouldn't come for her if she were in danger, or that he wouldn't stand with her in the thick of it.]
no subject
Of course, maybe that was the idea...
Still, can't let him see how happy she is to see him yet. ]
Now, don't you start.
[ Honestly, that had just been her talking, keeping that group of morons busy until that pesky meteor shower hit! That doesn't mean everything she said was absolutely true. Not to say he isn't as magnificent as she made him out to be, or that he could ever care for her as much as she does for him, but he's the Doctor, surely he knew all that before. ]
no subject
Oh, I started a long time ago. This is just continuing.
no subject
No matter what she might say. ]
Well you can stop that, too. Or at least get some new material.
[ Oh River, don't encourage him. ]
no subject
[He's also over four point five billion years old, when he chooses to count that, but he doesn't want her have a heart attack, so he'll tell her about that later.]
no subject
You've certainly kept me on my toes... especially with this new body of yours.
[ After all, she had been blind enough not to see it was him at first. River still can't believe he got the upper hand on her like that, the daft man. ]
no subject
[He's a little ahead of her, but him actually being ahead of her is... a nice change, actually.]
Just one thing - as an archaeologist, I would think you'd be better at listening than you showed.
no subject
[Though she hadn't been obvious about it, she had been fresh from her 'adventure' in Manhattan. Her husband had still had the baby face then, but really... she should have picked up on all the clues this Doctor had been dropping for her. It was, quite frankly, entirely embarrassing.
Doesn't mean she's just going to let him have this one. ]
I was a bit busy with my current husband.
That little diamond proved to be almost more trouble than it was worth.
no subject
Then, it's time for a divorce, don't you think?
no subject
A divorce? From which husband - the one without a head or the one with a metal body?
[ She smiles sweetly. ]
And you know very well I lost the diamond.
no subject
[Because he actually has a strong jealous streak.]
Well, we were being tossed around a bit. Probably went down with the ship. You didn't find it when you dug them up, so someone else must have. Probably someone who would do some good with it, rather than using it to make money.
[He did not approve of that, River.]
no subject
[ She smiles knowingly. The only husband that truly mattered. As if anyone could possibly compare to the Doctor. Might as well compare the universe to a pebble. ]
Yes, well a girl does have to make a living.
[ She can't always be stealing his TARDIS or crossing his timeline unexpectedly. ]
no subject
That's better. Don't you think one hundred billion credits is more than enough to live on?
[Honestly, the transfer had already been made, just how greedy was his wife?]
no subject
I suppose I could sit still for a little while. Twenty-four years is quite a long time, mind you.
Might start feeling a bit restless eventually. You had better keep me occupied, Doctor.
[ It's not always all about the money, dear. ]
no subject
I think you're confusing me for one of your ex-husbands.
no subject
That is simply not possible, my love.
no subject
[Except for knowing where he keeps his stash. Seriously, that should have been the first clue to her that he was... different.]
no subject
You're really not going to let that go, are you, Doctor?
You know, twenty-four years is almost a long time. I'm sure I'll have the chance to make up for a little lost time.
no subject
Oh, I'll let it go - as soon as you can prove you know me.
Twenty-four years should give you enough time.
no subject
You just had to go and compare him to sunsets and stars, River, didn't you?]
Oh, I won't need nearly that long, sweetie.
no subject
You sound very... sure... of yourself.
]He might be challenging her, just a bit.]
no subject
Ah, but you married me, Doctor.
You told me your real name.
Just because I'm still learning all the ins and outs of this new body doesn't mean I don't know you.
[So much innuendo.]
no subject
No I haven't. Not yet. I told you to look in my eye....
[Which is about as far from his real name as one could get. Also, he's good at killing the mood, sorry.]
no subject
no subject
[Have a nice, flirtatious smile.]
Certainly hoped you missed me a bit more than that.
[Because she's certainly missed your baby face.]
no subject
Staying out of trouble I hope?
no subject
[She laughs at his question.]
If by that you mean staying in trouble then yes, I have been!
