I'm also thinking about introducing fairies!! They've been mentioned in the rp but not really seen. Do you know anything about fairy rings or will-o-the-wisps? Might be interesting for Sam, but I don't want to introduce anything and have you be like um what is that.
Oooooh man how evil. I'll have to think about what it does to Liam. Beyond death since I don't think Raquelle would want to kill him. Maybe coma though or blindness. Maybe whatever it does ends up backfiring on Raquelle in the long run. Yay more ideas!!
That sounds good. Sometimes I get ideas like right away and have to respond quickly before losing them and other times I have to think it over for a while. Like I have some inspirations for my next post but I don't have time to write since studying. So tomorrow I'll have time and even more inspiration~

A question though (might help me). How do you feel about Narissa having a way to contact Raquelle like she does for August?
I'm sure I can come up with something!! My trip threw me off a bit since I wasn't thinking about the rp for 3 days and I have a test tomorrow (my first of the semester) that I've been trying to focus on for the last couple of days aaaah I'm nervous. But if you want to brainstorm together or have me surprise you I can think of something. Maybe Narissa will stir something up/get suspicious of Sam or August (or both) or something. Or I'll throw in a new creature since this is a fantasy. Or have Sam get into some trouble. I'm interested in this Raquelle drugging Liam so maybe I'll play off of that.

I'll brainstorm and when my test is over tomorrow I'll work on a post and make something happen. Sorry if it seems like I've been lazy, it's been a crazy, distracting couple of weeks. I'll work harder.
Saying yes was almost completely worth it just for the Doctor's reaction. Nora felt herself match the Doctor's grin, and made herself walk calmly into the TARDIS, rather than scurry in with excitement like she really wanted to. Taking a moment to spin on the spot to take in the scenery once again, she saw the Doctor enter and she got one last look at the world before the doors closed. She saw the bench she had been sitting one, her heels left behind, and the rose bushes and the hotel behind it. Her mother, father, brother, sister-in-law, and little nephew were in there somewhere. But she knew that if she asked then they wouldn't get the chance to miss her or even know that she had left. "Goodbye," she said softly before the doors were closed and her world was left behind.

Excitement filled her and she didn't think she would be able to contain it. Nora turned and followed the Doctor to the control panel, and just barely stopped herself from accidentally knocking into a few buttons. Who knew what that might have caused. The Doctor started describing the hot chocolate they were going to go drink to her and she couldn't not smile. Just when she thought her smile couldn't get any bigger it did. Then the planet they were going to, Beauwind, was being described and the only thing that made her grin falter was the word icy. But before she had a chance to say anything the TARDIS jerked and she caught herself on the railing before she could fall. "A bit of a bumpy ride," she commented through a laugh, then she remembered what she had said about ice.

"Um, I'm not exactly dressed for cold weather," Nora commented once she got back onto her feel. She held her arms out as though to illustrate her point. The periwinkle colored dress was sleeveless and knee length, and made out of think silky material. Her shoes had been left on the garden bench, so she was barefooted. "Got a jumper I could borrow?" Nora asked wryly.
Nora bit her lip and smiled at the Doctor's rambling. The other woman seemed to be framed by light escaping from the door of the TARDIS, giving her a sort of ethereal appearance. It added to the offer in unbelievable ways. All of this was very enticing to her, and Nora knew she was half a second away from saying yes. The only thing that made her hesitate was the thought of her family. All of them were inside of the hotel right now, maybe waiting for her to come back inside or wondering where she had wandered off to. Could she really do it? Really just run off into time and space with this woman she barely knew? Without so much as an explanation or goodbye? But she reasoned that, if this box was a time machine, then no one would really have to know she'd ever been gone. Right?"

Her smile was spreading across her lip as she slowly stepped a bit closer to the woman and her box. "No, I love hot chocolate," Nora said, feeling a little mischievous about this whole thing. "It's definitely my thing. And...I like unexpected. Yeah, anything could happen, but it sounds a little...I don't know...fun?" She was very close to the box now and she gave it a look that might have been filled with longing before looking back at the Doctor. "But it's only one cup of cocoa, right?" Her smile widened. "Or maybe two. Or three."
Nora was sitting on a bench in the hotel's garden all by herself, her brown hair all done up and wearing her periwinkle blue bridesmaid dress. She was barefooted, the heels sitting on the bench beside her, and she kicked her feet lazily. Evie and Tom had already been seen off in a car on their way to the honeymoon, but the reception was still going on. At least it had been. She could hear the music beginning to die down, the voices of the guests getting fainter. She had been social, paused for photographs, danced with every boy her mother had shoved at her, but she had finally needed to escape and be alone for a while to mull over her thoughts. Too much had happened that day.

She tried thinking about how beautiful and happy Evie had looked that day. Sure she had been confused upon waking, but when Nora said some people wandering by had chased the man off she had accepted it. And then had worked miracles getting them both ready on time. And then she had walked down the aisle, and Nora didn't think there had ever been a more beautiful bride. That's what she tried to focus on. Evie being happy and in love and safe. Not about how much her heart had hurt as she watched the blue box fade away from her life, taking the Doctor with it. She had wanted to see the stars just once, but her opportunity had disappeared from her life while making that wheezing sound. A sound that she'd never hear again.

A sound that began filling her ears right at that moment and Nora looked up to see the blue box fading in and out and in and out until it was sitting in front of her. She was on her feet as a beaming Doctor stepped out of the doors and asked if she needed a lift. Nora was silent for a moment, looking at her as though she was making sure she was really there. "Didn't think I'd ever see you again," she managed to say, and tried not to smile like an idiot as she answered the question. "I'm supposed to catch a train back home tomorrow. But I guess your way is quicker. And cheaper." Nora folded her arms over her chest and gave the Doctor a small half smile. "Of all you're offering is just a ride home, of course."
Nora's expression was hesitant when the TARDIS seemed to throw a fit, but when the Doctor announced that they had arrived and the doors opened she saw the hotel room and let herself smile. Pulling one of Evie's arms over her shoulder, the two carried her out of the TARDIS and laid her gently onto the bed. Nora brushed some of Evie's golden hair out of her face before helping the Doctor load the unconscious Torx into the TARDIS, then she stepped out of the box. She looked around the room, noting the shards of lamp on the floor that she'd have to clean up, but other than that the room looked fine. Now she just had to think of what to say to Evie when she woke up.

The Doctor spoke and Nora turned to look at the woman, her eyes widening a little when she realized what the words meant. They were a goodbye. "No, wait! You're just...leaving? After all of that...?" She looked at the Doctor uncertainly, then shook her head in a resigned sort of way and glanced back at where Evie was lying. "Look, um, you didn't just save me. You saved my sister, too. So thanks. For that." She really hoped her voice didn't betray how much the Doctor just running off was hurting her. You can't just show me everything and then leave me here with nothing.
That was my idea, too.
Nora had moved past the two men as the Doctor checked on them. She went straight into the TARDIS, where Evie was still slumped in a seat. She was still asleep when Nora went over to her, but she wasn't as still as she had been before. Evie shifted in her sleep and made incoherent mumbling noises, as well as sleepy sounding sighs. She'd probably start waking up soon, groggy and confused. And Nora didn't feel like adding to her confusion by having her wake up in a blue bigger-on-the-inside time machine/space ship box.

She darted back to the doorway and poked her head out of the opening as the Doctor handed her little tracker/un-Torxing machine to one of the men whose body was used to kidnap her. But it hadn't been the man. Just the alien parasite that had been inside of him. So she offered the two a sympathetic smile before looking back at the woman. "Doctor, come on. We're on a bit of a tight schedule. We can't let Tim think Evie's left him at the alter. Or let my mum have a heart attack. I just hope that she hasn't noticed we're missing yet." Nora made a slightly terrified face at the prospect of what Irma Clarke might do if she discovered both of her daughters missing just hours before the eldest was supposed to get married.
