I just got an email saying the band would be better if you got rid of your, and I quote, "stupid bow ties".
There were other things, but I thought you might enjoy the opportunity to be personally offended.

That's the price of fame, Doctor. Be sure to thank Angel one day that she doesn't encourage it. Can you imagine having a manager who would?
I'll be sure to let them know, don't worry.

I don't want to imagine. I might have lucked out going into classical instead of rock.
Fans are strange. People generally look the same topless. Why do they want to see me specifically when Virgo has other artists they can googley eye at? More muscular chaps at that!

Because they like your music better, so there's a bias. Isn't it obvious?
Is that a suggestion for our next performance?
If we ever go touring back home one day, can you just imagine their poor little hearts?
Good plan. We should preserve their childlike innocence.
[The morning of the eighth will find a box on the Doctor's bed. It's wrapped with nothing less than absolute love, and inside is what appears to be a leather bracelet of some sort that he's free to fiddle with. Beneath it is a Solstice card, signed with Luce's name.]
[No real suprise: Doctor tackles the gift and unwraps it like a child would.]
What's this?
[He turns the leather piece over several times in his hands. It's clear it fits the wrist so he slips it on as he continues examining it. He gives each button or knob a tap and the display lights up and reveals what its made for.]
This is- Oh this is- [He stumbles to the doorway to yell for Luce. Really he needs to tell her exactly what he thinks as soon as possible.] Luce!

[As can be expected, Luce is at the kitchen chopping up some fruit for breakfast. Her lips quirk up as Doctor suddenly appears in his doorway.]
Good morning, dear.
Good morning, dear.
[ Doctor is still in his pajamas as he comes bouncing out of his bedroom to greet her. He has to stop to kick off a blanket that was caught on his leg and almost falls over in the process. His hair is a mess and he's grinning from ear to ear. ]
This is beautiful! This is one of the best time pieces I have ever seen! Where in the world did you find this treasure?

Commission, dear.
[Humming, she pours some espresso for him- not that he needs it- and puts it on the counter.]
They cut it a bit close, but it all worked out in the end.

This would have been worth waiting for!
[ He activates it again and the display comes to life. He pokes at the lights with his other hand, thoroughly entertained. ]
Thank you! Luce!
[ And he sings to her, floppy messy hair and all. ]
And I received this gift from you
Pleasantly surprised, I never thought you'd realize that maybe
I have a love of watches too
And if I was deserving, who am I to disagree?
And how can I refuse this even if I don't deserve it
And now, I give this gift to you
I could have got you anything but this will have to do
It's how I give this gift to you
Doesn't seem like much, but it's the best that I could do
I'm giving everyone presents today I hope you will enjoy
[ With a spin around the room he grabs a box from one of the tables and returns to her, presenting it with a playful bow. ]

[The sudden burst of song has her laugh into her hand, making sure not to get so distracted that she accidentally sets the stove on fire. When he suddenly presents the gift, she grins. Well, might as well play along, right?]
What's this? What's this?
Oh goodness it seems the idea wasn't mine alone
What's this?
It's topped off with a bow
[Carefully, she takes it and sets it on the counter away from all the food, because you never know, and gets to unwrapping it curiously.]

[ Inside Luce will find what she might be expecting: a stylish purple leather jacket. Accompanying it is a matching hand bag and wallet. ]
I realize I should have measured your shoes and found you something matching to complete the gift! Where's my time machine to correct that?

[Even with the technical forewarning back on twitter not too long ago, Luce's face still lights up like Solstice decorations as she pulls out the jacket, and she hugs it to her chest.]
Oh, Doctor, it's wonderful!
Oh, Doctor, it's wonderful!
Oh, such a fashionista, sir! [Another bright laugh.] Now I'll have to learn how to ride a motorcycle to match!
A motorcycle! Yes! Should I get you one of those next year? [ Is he serious or joking? Who knows. ]
I think fans expect to see us on scooters but not on full fledged motorcycles. We could really surprise them. Oh! What if you drove one with a little side compartment for a passenger? I could sit there while you drive and play my accordion as we drive around the city.

[Luce isn't naive enough to think he wouldn't/i> do it, honestly. That doesn't stop her from grinning.]
I'd like to get it before this time next year, honestly.
