*Skipping Love and Monsters

The Doctor had gotten a notice for something that had escaped and was being requested to help. Annika had already given him permission to leave and rose soon joined by Fenrir's suggestion. While he would've liked his pretty lady to stay with him, she was hovering over Annika too much and Fenrir knew his youngest sibling's temper when she was hurt. She would either want Loki, Eddie, or the Doctor, no arguments on anybody else unless they were all not available, although Jack seemed to be becoming the next person. Jack had mentioned to the Doctor that he had figured out his future as the Face of Boe and because of Annika's reaction to when they found out that he wanted to stay with her.

When the Doctor did come back only a few hours for them and almost a day for the other two, they gossiped about the new couple they discovered. Eventually Annika was able to keep up a glamor when she tried and was able to leave once again as long as she filled up on Klyntarian fruit to help Mayhem and not keep her glamor up even if she's tired.

Jack still stayed behind because Sleipnir was planning a trip. The Doctor didn't particularly like the two knew their futures. Jack and Sleipnir were understanding when the Doctor got a tad snappy after Annika explained how the Time Lords didn't like someone knowing. Emerson technically didn't count in the matter as he was half Gallifreyian himself and did not speak of the Doctor and Annika's future other than what they already knew from Annika's past.

"Oof!" the Doctor huffed when the TARDIS doors didn't open. He reached into his pocket and brought out a small mirror and saw he had parked between cargo containers. "Ah," he spoke, turnin g back around and facing an amused Rose and Annika (who was in her Jotunn form like the good girl she is totally not waiting for a praise from her spouse or anything, definitely not). He turned the ship ninety degrees and could not open the door. Annika put up her glamor as she followed Rose out.

"So, near future, yeah?" Rose asked.

"I had a passing fancy. Only it didn't pass, it stopped," the Doctor said, holding Annika's hand. "Thirtieth Olympiad," he said.

Annika looked slightly surprised but didn't comment. She feared she would boost Zeus' ego by this was cool.

"No way! Why didn't I think of this? That's great," was voiced to her side. Apparently Rose hadn't had the same thought.

"Only seems like yesterday a few naked Greek blokes were tossing a discus about, wrestling each other in the sand with crowds stood around baying. No, wait a minute, that was Club Med. Just in time for the opening doo dah, ceremony, tonight, I thought you'd like that. Last one they had in London was dynamite. Wembley, 1948. I loved it so much, I went back and watched it all over again."

"Can I diss the Greek deities I don't like when we watch it?" Annika asked a pout.

"Of course dear," the Doctor responded. "I should take you back to the one I went too. The fella carrying the torch, you'd like him. He was secretly a pyromaniac."

"I don't think I'd like a pyromaniac," Annika said.

"Well you'd like for the secret chaos he wanted to cause," the Doctor corrected.

"then maybe I would," Annika replied.

"What was his name?" he questioned himself. The couple hadn't noticed Rose looking missing posters splattered all over the wall.

"Doctor," rose spoke up.

"And in those days, everybody had a tea party to go," the Doctor continued his story to Annika, trying to ignore the missing posters he saw Rose looking at. He wanted to do something fun for Annika who wasn't one hundred percent healed yet.
