...well, shit, a real charmer. You do not look like a short potato. ( Red rolls her eyes at that with a wrinkle of her nose at the very thought. ) You're beautiful. Potatoes are weird and lumpy shaped. How long has it been since he regenerated?
( Maybe it takes time. She really doesn't know what that's like, has never heard anything like regeneration in her own world. Spirits make deals with gods sometimes to try to come back to life, but they're basically the same except for the experience of having died. )
People blurt. It's a thing. ( And it's okay. )
Oh. Well, Hades gave this version- uh, me a name in Purgatory High. I'd be on the list to attend classes and shit, but... I wanted one of my own so I came up with Red cause I have red hair, and don't know any people named that.
[ She smiles at the reassurance about her looks, but it fades when she thinks back to the time frame. ]
I have to guess. We stayed on Trenzelore for a while, the place he regenerated. He avoided me and I dunno how much time passed. Weeks? Maybe a month. Has he told you the TARDIS is infinite? And it can change its layout anytime? It was literally impossible for me to find him. When he finally made an appearance again we uh— [ Clara puts her face in her hands so that her voice is muffled. ]
There was a T-Rex. He got the TARDIS swallowed by a T-Rex which he brought back with him on one of those random times he ran away from me.
[ Nodding her head toward her, Clara looks just a touch jealous. ]
I always wanted red hair. There was zero chance, no one in my family's a ginger, but it's gorgeous. You're bloody gorgeous too, by the way.
[ Alternatively, the Doctor has decided just to 'skate' using his regular shoes. Why not? But he waits patiently for Clara, amazingly enough. He can actually be patient sometimes, as it turns out. ]
Oh, I've played football a time or two! I was quite good at it, actually. Maybe we get a team going here.
