So Much More Than Nothing (LDR ADU)

6

"Are you really that upset about the Weeping Angels, Carm?" Laura giggled, balancing her popcorn bowl on her knee as she laughed at the raven-haired girl on her screen.

"Yes! Are you kidding me? Those things caused Amy and Rory to-"

Laura thought she could rant. Now she understood what Carmilla and her father found adorable about it. The way Carmilla was raving and swatting her hands about was nothing short of the word. She went on and on about how creepy the Weeping Angels were- how there was no exact way of defeating them unless you keep direct contact and blow them up. Though she wasn't sure if grenades would be effective against them. Maybe something much worse. 'Maybe a nice bazooka' Laura suggested. Who would care about anyone committing angel genocide anyway? They were destructive and completely uncalled for- like Donald Trump. Just less known and, technically, not alive. Any angel destroyed could easily be replaced by stone that doesn't move. As if anyone is going to believe that after seeing a friggin' angel.

"I just don't understand how these are your favorite villains in this show, Cupcake. I really don't. Especially since Amy is your favorite companion and they do that to her!" Carmilla sighed, exasperated.

"How do you know what my favorite things are? Have you ever asked me?" Laura crossed her arms in mock offense.

"I don't have to. I do listen, Cutie. Besides, am I wrong?" Carmilla gave her a half smile.

"I'm not telling you. This isn't a game of 20 questions." Laura stuck her tongue out at her.

"It can be." Carmilla replied. Upon seeing Laura's shocked reaction, she rolled her eyes. "If there's an opportunity to prove you wrong and learn more about you, I would like to take it."

"Aw, Carm!"

"Yeah, yeah! Shut it, half-pint, and answer the question before you get all sappy." Carmilla smiled.

Laura sputtered, sitting up in disbelief, the cutest deer-in-headlights look Carmilla had ever seen plastered on her face. "You got sappy first!"

"We gonna play or what, Creampuff?" Carmilla ran a hand through her curls with another smile, successfully dodging the accusation.

"Laura rolled her eyes but smirked back and played along. "Yes. Amy and Rose."

"Why?" Carmilla asked.

"They're both sassy. Plus, they impacted The Doctor in a way that I don't think each companion could. I mean, of course each companion impacts The Doctor majorly; I just think not as much as Amy and Rose."

"Why?"

"They loved him. Not just loved him. They were in love with him. I don't think the others loved him that way. Not like those two; well, except Riversong- who is also a favorite, but she isn't a companion, so it doesn't count." Laura disappeared into her head for a moment, remembering how she felt whenever Amy or Rose expressed or showed affection for The Doctor. Wanting something like that out of life. Someone that felt that way for her.

Carmilla nodded, satisfied with her answer, making a mental note of it. She switched gears before she lost Laura for the night to her thoughts. "Who's your favorite Doctor?"

"Oh, definitely, the 10th and 11th Doctor. David Tenant and Matt Smith played two of the best Doctors of this generation, in my opinion~ Plus, they are incredibly adorable! In a boy way..." Laura blushed.

"In a what way?" Carmilla scoffed. "You know it's okay if you have an attraction to men, right? To anyone for that matter. Bisexuality is beautiful. Gay is gorgeous. Trans is tantalizing. Lesbian is luscious. Pansexuality is pretty. Asexuality is adorable. Sexual orientation shouldn't be embarrassing or judged. Be who you are. It's called love, not a label, Cupcake."
