Yeah... Uai might be the best to talk to then. I can't get too into it because... it's not mine to tell. [Puffs hair to the side.] But don't get... too worried. Uai can't let some of the people he knows know he knows them. And it's really hard with him and Hana... without saying too much. So just... yeah. And Trunks too...
[SPREAD HANDS AND SHRUG.] Time travel is complicated. But the Doctor is just extra weird, really.
[Chews her bottom lip.] Well... not just... yanno age. But like ... yeah. He was worried about me dying before him, like I said. And the whole, him not being human. And the lies. Mostly it was the covering up for the lies for me. But also sometimes he acts asexual. [EYES ROLL UP TO THE SKY.] Like. A lot of the time. So I was extra ticked that he has a wife, had others in the past, and couldn't get over himself with me, because I'm too special... apparently. Or something like that. But no it was basically that. So I felt very... strung up. I don't think I'm strong enough to have the kind of friendship and close working relationship we have, where he's the lead scientist for my company yeah? And NOT -- like I told him I was in love with him before we wound up here. So to not really act on that. Was extra hard for me. And I was angry about other things, not all his fault. It just got... It was a mess, yeah?
[Head tilt.] I mean... Sort of????? In an... intellectual way I guess. [Laughs, and squeezes Angelique's hand!] I never really thought Jimmy Stone was taking advantage of my age or naivete when I was 16, but I guess to everyone else, that was exactly how it was. But even my Mum knew... there's no way to really tell me what not to do or not. And the Doctor... same thing. He knew better than to tell me where to go. To go be with my parents again, because he'd done that, a ton o' times already and it never worked.
I guess if your boyfriend knows you, he probably knows, or trusts you're strong and independent like that too? [Hums.] You might wanna tell him how you feed though. You said it was medical too? He should get my boyfriend to look at him! That's how we got started feeding non-humans in the first place, yeah? I was turned into a gargoyle for a couple of weeks, and other were vampires, and he was a werewolf. [Face scrunch.] I even got him a collar that says Bad Dog on it, I didn't actually think he'd wear it, but he never takes it off. [Giggles.] But he tried to feed all the vampires because so many were letting themselves starve and stuff. ~Ethical~ reasons.
[Bites a fingernail.] Even if you think like... he might get scared...
The Doctor thought I was in culture shock when he first showed me his ship and I figured out he was an alien and all. But I wasn't. I was upset because he just took the head off my boyfriend at the time, and even though it was plastic, like store dummies he saved me from the night before, I was really scared for Mickey. Not for myself.
The Doctor's -- I dunno, it's one of those things... Jack says it's just that he's not human, for sure. So he's bad with reading people, but I know other aliens who aren't half as bad as the Doctor. Could still be his species though, like I said, he's practically the last of his kind. So like... hiding stuff from me really... [S H R U G.] Even when he thought it was for my own good, that really made me mad. I just want to be the one choosing. Like when he asked me along twice. Because the first time I was thinking about Mickey, and I'd run off on Mickey before with Jimmy and that was terrible, and then there was my Mum, and I didn't want to put her through all of that again... [Huff puff.] But in the end, asking me twice gave me the chance I needed to do what I really wanted. He said he'd never done that before. Or since.
Anyway... I think... [NODS!! She closes her eyes but she's definitely certain of this.] You should try to tell him how you feed. And let him try to help you too. Don't yanno let him kill himself, because gods men are so stupid I swear... But let him try to help. Or at least... let him to try to be supportive and understanding. I freaked out with the Doctor when I realized I'd just wandered off with a strange older man I knew nothing about, just being way too naive and trusting again. And he thought I was just in culture shock again and bein' nosy besides... but after it was all said and done... he told me some important things, things he doesn't normally want to talk about or tell anyone else, but he gave me enough information I could decide where I want to be. Which is with him. And even though he gave me reasons to leave, I wanted to stay. BECAUSE he told me, yeah? Because he trusted me, and needed me. And Mickey always acted like he needed me, but I think Mickey could handle himself if he let himself. But around me, he'd let me take care of things. Yeah?
Anyway, point is. That was like... 5 or 6 years ago, and I've fought really hard to get back to him since then.
I mean granted, it wasn't like he was like "Hey Rose I need you to hug me daily or I'll die." But he needed me to hold his hand, or he'd die. He needed someone with him so he had to save them too or he wouldn't bother saving himself. Understand? Plus I mean... it sounds like he already... has sex with you??? So?? Whatever medical issue it's either under control, OR you should tell him the danger. Because otherwise, I REALLY mean it. Men are universally stupid. That goes for Trunks and Uai too. I love them all, but seriously. So even if he's a good detective and figures it out, he might do something crazy and scare you way worse than if you just talk it with him sober-like. I don't know his condition though, so yeah, also consider sending him to the Doctor. My Doctor, my boyfriend, I mean. He's got the double benefit of not being human, and still a doctor, so he can do some medical stuff for a wide variety of species. Less on humans, because of the time travel and not being one himself, but also we have another friend who's getting her Doctor's license here, so if it's really specialized and he can't help, she probably can.
