[She ends up laughing and crying at the same time, but they're happy tears at least, and she squishes him hard.]
Mmn! Bad Wolf told me you looked after me when I was kid. Took care of that bully that Micks and I couldn't deal with down the hall... Thank you Jack.
[Laughs and wipes her eyes gently with a single finger each to avoid smudging makeup, and laughs some more.] You have no idea how much I missed you.
There's this woman called Lady Me, right? The Twelfth Doctor made her immortal, and I told her what happened with you, so she... definitely hates me. Not a big fan of you either. Because she's just so... [Stomps a foot and groans.] Small and petty and doesn't even try. I hate it. Not her. Just.... that I cursed ya and you sacrifice yourself all the time, and she's too cowardly to die even once. That's not... [Finger air quotes.] Immortality, that's just livin' really long. I'm more immortal than that.
Ugh!
[HUGS AND CLINGS BUT NUZZLES SLIGHTLY AND BREATHES HIM IN AND HE'S THERE AND SHE IS SO HAPPY.]
Oh gosh! You have to see it though! So there's Scarfy, Fluffy -- he came after Leather Jacket and Ears, and Eight. You'll love 8. You can probably have contests to see who everyone in Nautilus falls for first. [Giggles.]
Mmn, but Scarfy's mine. And Eight's. But go easy on him. He's the baby Doctor here. [Holds her fingers up slightly and giggles again.] Might be my favorite. He even edged you out as my best friend, but he's heard so many stories about you. He says he has to keep us separate. [Giggles more.] Which I think just means he wants to be tied up with his own scarf and tickled. [Serious nod, but she loses it to an evil smirk.] He's very ticklish.
Ah! And!! Check this out! [Digs into her shirt and pulls out the key on a chain which is TARDIS key, of course, but with it, her blue diamond engagement ring, shaped of course: like a TARDIS.] Christmas present from Fluffy. [Sucks in both lips, waiting for Jack's approval!] When I first got here it was just the two of us, and he was just a nomad. But he got the box made, even though it doesn't have the TARDIS' soul, so that he can keep me safe. 9 came in December and that was... a real wild ride. So I couldn't say yes because I didn't want to pressure his past. Although I totally buggered that up with 8. I thought 8 was like... [Sighs.] Someone like River Song or his future wife. But Fluffy says, he's been treatin' me like we're already married even before I showed up, yeah?
[Tucks it back away and molests Jack's cheeks, beaming.] He'll be glad you're here. [ROSE ASSUMES. BECAUSE SHE IS SO HAPPY. ERGO OF COURSE EVERYONE ELSE WILL BE. AS THEY SHOULD BE.]
