*answers her phone*
Oh, hello, sweetie. No, everything's fine, the kids are fine. Of course you can, what is it?
*eyes widen as she listens*
Oh. Oh, right. Gosh... no, no, not at all, that sounds delightful. Are you sure? Uh-huh. Yeah... you've got my email address, right? Sure, I'll check.

*goes to her laptop and reads the incoming mail*
*wedges the phone in between her ear and shoulder*
Yes... you're right... that is quite a list. No problem, just let me know. Okay, I'll see you later.

*loads the kids into a buggy and goes underwear shopping*

*Is in the lingerie department comparing powder blue panties with shell pink ones, somewhat confused about Earth sizing labels*

*Casts eyes around for a sales minion, moving backwards into the aisle and stepping right into you*

[mme_depompadour]

Ooh!
*drops a bra onto Dafydd's head*
Oh, I'm terribly sorry.
*tries to wrestle the wee plastic hanger out of Daf's mouth*
*smiles*
Those are nice.
*gestures at the blue ones*

*Has cottoned on to the fact that if want the Doctor to like me I'd better start being nicer to humans*

*Charmingest smile*
No no, my fault entirely, I'm more used to people getting out of my way as fast as they can hobble..
Just kidding.
*Studies the undergarments*
Nice choice, I thought so too, but they all look so unfeasibly small.

[mme_depompadour]

*smiles*
That's the idea. They're not really meant for keeping you warm or anything, are they?
*holds up the blue one*
No, I'm sure she'd like that one. The pink one's a bit of a worry unless she's got the right skin tone. Otherwise it'd make her look a bit pale, and if it makes you look pale, it makes you look fat.

[harry-saxon.livejournal.com]

That's why I stick to the darker colours personally.
Actually he's a perfect ten, and I don't think he could look fat if he tried. Although in these sizes I suspect he's somewhere between a twelve and a fourteen.

*Conspiratorially*
I'm only telling you this because I know I can't get locked up for it in this century.

[mme_depompadour]

*giggles*
Oh... right.
*eyes the knickers again*
Twelve. I'd go for the twelve. It's so hard shopping for someone else isn't it?

*Warms to you as you seem so open minded and bright, not what I expected*

It's a bit of a nightmare yes.
*Holding out a hand to shake*

Thanks for helping me out, I only started dating him recently, and it's so easy to get the first few weeks wrong, I'm Harry.

[mme_depompadour]

*shakes your hand*
Reinette. Hi. I'm on the market again myself, I'm recently divorced.

Dating's a nightmare isn't it? Especially with these guys.
*handwaves in the direction of the children*

[harry-saxon.livejournal.com]

*Refrains from kissing the babies, mostly due to getting vomited on during the otherwise successful political campaign*

Men are pigs. My boyfriend has children too, but that's not going to come between us.

Please don't take this the wrong way.. but are your adorable infants entirely human?

[dafydd_jones]

*thinks hard at you*
NO!!

*giggles*

[mme_depompadour]

Dafydd! What have we said about public telepathy, sweetie?
*looks embarrassed*
Umm... maybe not entirely.

[harry-saxon.livejournal.com]

Timelord DNA, I thought there were a few of my kind still around in this universe, but I didn't expect to bump into any in Cardiff.

*Does the math, and looks slightly uncomfortable*
Your ex.. tall dark and ruffled?

[mme_depompadour]

Yes. His name's the Doctor. Why do you ask?

[harry-saxon.livejournal.com]

He's my .. well he's also the recipient of these..

*Waves the panties at you with an apologetic grin*

[mme_depompadour]

*barely supresses a chuckle*
Oh... oh dear sweet Lord, he's gone gay again.

*unfazed*
Well, that was bound to happen. I tell you, if I had a penny for every time he'd say to me "Oh, I wish you had a cock, Reinette, my little plum pudding of lust", well... you know... I'm rich enough, but still.

[harry-saxon.livejournal.com]

He's always been indecisive about his sexuality, I mean the one I knew, from my universe, but he doesn't change wherever I go.

*Chuckles with you*
Our dear Doctor, a repressed interdimensional constant... he is rather high maintenance isn't he.

[mme_depompadour]

He is just a bit, yes.
*smiles*
Listen, I really have to get these guys home. Would you...
*jots down her number*
would you like to go for a drink some time? Or come round for a coffee?
*hands it to you*

[harry-saxon.livejournal.com]

*Takes note, and hands you my own card*

I'll be sure to bring doughnuts.

[timebaby]

*gives you a withering glare*
Kiss-up.

*Can see you're going to be trouble*
