That gets a giggle out of her and she lightly whaps his arm. "I mean to meet you here in Nautilus! Silly." But she's still too giddy to protest much, and finally digs into her pockets and pull out her cell phone and show him the guides. "There's only about a hundred and fifty of us I think. But the Doctor's here," she held up four fingers, "Times 4! It's fantastic!" another giggle. "Um," she bit her bottom lip. He remembered her at least, and he didn't look much older... but Ashildr didn't age at all, so... figuring out how far it was from when he last saw her was going to be a puzzle.

"You're after Platform 5, right?" she asked a little suspiciously, and more than a little guiltily.

"Four Doctors? There's a time paradox. I'm surprised the whole place hasn't collapsed." Jack hummed thoughtfully but grinned. "Well, I did always enjoy speaking to the Doctor."

He nodded in affirmation to her question. "That was quite a long time ago now."

Jack reached out to brush his finger along her chin. "Can't be changed now, don't even think about it." He didn't want her feeling guilty, he'd rather see Rose smile.

"Nah, welcome to Nautilus. No time here, so it's a multi-verse nexus and apparently his TimeLord-ness means he can be multiple. Careful though, that goes for other TimeLords too. Including the Master, if you know who that is."

She looked into his eyes at the touch, but shivered all the same and hugged him hard. "'M still sorry," she mumbled hard into his chest. "Really really sorry." Tightest hug ever. Rose rubbed her eyes on an arm. "You're not mad at me?" She bit her bottom lip hard. Even knowing that Lady Me didn't hate the Doctor... just wanted to prevent it wasn't much better. Undoing what she did to Jack wasn't going to be easier, and if anything, she made it that he still died, unlike Lady Me. "I heard you looked after me as a kid..." a soft laugh and she shook her head, "Thank you." NOPE JUST GONNA CLING HERE FOR A LITTLE BIT. SHE LOVES YOU JACK.

"You could say we've met." Jack nodded a little, he remembered the Master. "He wouldn't happen to be here, would he?"

He rested his hand on the small of Rose's back as she hugged him again. "Nah, I'm not mad at you. The alternative is being dead."

Jack just smiled contently. "What have you been doing with all of these Doctors, hm?" His tone went right back to teasing.

"Nope, no Master yet. I'm sorry you ran into him though, is he really as bad as they say?" Please tell her he tortured you Jack, otherwise Rose will continue to think he's probably funny. Also it'll make her resent Lady Me a little more, but hey what wouldn't.

She blushed bright red and glanced away. "I've been terribly naughty. You should be proud." She looked up at him and beamed. "I've kissed all four of 'em! Even the baby Doctor." See? TERRIBLY NAUGHTY. "He said if you ever came he'd try to keep us separate for the sake of everyone else's sanity. So I think that means we should double-team him first, yeah?" she winked.

"OH OH!" it reminded her. "I SAVED YOU SO MANY THINGS!" a fierce giggle. "The Doctor and I got in a fight -- well more than one, but one was bad enough I left him for a week, and he licked the TARDIS, and Nautilus is sentient like the TARDIS, so he, Nautilus, decided to show everyone." Evil giggles. "And I forget everything else, but I have a small plushie collection for you." A nod. "That's another thing Nautilus does here. Everyone gets to be plushies eventually at Gothdonald's. Weird, huh? But fun."

"He's a piece of work." Jack commented, because that was true, but sorry Rose, no details. "I'd keep away from him if I were you."

He chuckled lightly at Rose's reaction, it was interesting. "I am proud of you, I didn't know you had that in you." Jack grinned. "Double-team? Doesn't that sound promising."

He was terribly amused by her excitement, he was fond of Rose. "A plushie collection? What do they do?"

"I'd have suggested if the Doctor needed something to lick, we could find something more interesting than the TARDIS."

A pout. "So they keep insistin'. Rassilon tortured the Doctor, or will, though, so I wanna kick him in the face. He flips on whether I'm allowed to or not, dependin' on which of him you ask."

Another evil giggle. "I did more'n that with the one you and I met, leather jacket, yeah? And um, from when he regenerates."

A hum, "The plushies don't do anythin. They're just cute. You'll see."

And yet another evil giggle all over again, "Exactly what I was thinkin'! SEE? This is why I missed you so much!" ANOTHER SQUISHING HUG WITH THE INTENT OF NEVER LETTING GO EVER.

"Far be it for me to stop you from going after excitement, but I'd consider him dangerous. Fortunately, we're a resilient bunch." Wasn't humanity wonderful for that?

"Well well, Rose Tyler, look at you." Jack grinned. "The more the merrier, right?"

Rose was someone he wasn't likely to forget, his smile broader at her agreement. "Well, you know, teasing the Doctor is a good time to spend your day. I encourage you wholeheartedly."

Help, Jack was a terrible influence.

"It's not the danger that worries me," a small pout. Although her being killed just to upset the Doctor and given Ten going all Timelord Victorious... yeah, that was a good enough reason to avoid him.

"So that means you're going to help me seduce all o' him, yeah?" Rose just laughed, already knowing that Jack would do that even if she hadn't suggested it. Or would accidentally try.

"There's a lot of things to be worried about with him, but since he's not around you shouldn't bother."

Jack offered her his most charming smile. "I'm much more interesting."

He chuckled lightly and pondered her suggestion. "Well I did just get here, and I am wasting daylight. I will certainly give it my best efforts."

Flirting with the Doctor was never boring, even if he wasn't successful.

A laugh, "That you are," she conceded, grabbed Jack's hand and started him off running. "Come on! I'll give you the grand tour!"

"I'd be honoured." He grinned and squeezed her hand as he chased after her.

"Show me what you like around here. I've definitely never been."

"Me?" Rose laughed. "Everything. And everyone." She bit her bottom lip, sighed, and rolled her eyes. "Okay, except one. You're gonna find out eventually. There's a woman here, called Lady Me. She outlived her real name, and doesn't care to be associated with it anymore. She's sort of how I found out what happened, with the Bad Wolf... and makin' you immortal. The Doctor, wouldn't have ever told me otherwise. Or confirmed it." A sigh and she briefly winced and held a finger over Jack's lips. "And don't lie to me or confirm my suspicions about him, all right? Because he told me you wanted to stay behind to fix things up." She chewed her bottom lip. "And I want to believe that of you both. That he wouldn't lie to me about that," since he figured out that Jack was immortal. "And that you were a hero."

She gave Jack another firm hug. "You are my hero. Just so you know. Don't ever think you're not."

NOT LETTING GO AGAIN. "And meeting Lady Me... really set that opinion in. She's so opposite you it drives me crazy!" Rose chewed up her bottom lip sullenly. "Um, but she's met you. I don't know when. Probably more'n once. She drives me mad though. Doctor and I fight about her a bunch. Because his future, far far future, maybe alternate universe future even, made her immortal on purpose. And... and..." she looked up, brown eyes meeting his green-blue. "Mine was by accident, yeah? I didn't... I never would have wanted to hurt you." She sighed, dropped the hug, but took his hand again. "He didn't give her a choice either. Can't ask the dead if they'd rather be immortal or stay dead."

Jack chuckled lightly. Rose was just as enthusiastic as he remembered. He turned contemplative as she spoke about Me, filing the information away for later.

"He probably didn't want to tell you because he didn't want you to blame yourself. It was an accident, after all."

He looked a little uncomfortable with being called a hero. "Hey come on now, I'm not going to get a cape and tights anytime soon. Unless you're into that sort of thing, of course." Jack winked playfully, that was far better than mild discomfort.

"I don't remember her, so it must be something that's going to come in the future. You didn't need to worry that much about it, I mean, it can't be undone now and it was an accident. I've been making the best of it and living every day because of you Rose Tyler. I can't say if it will be better than dying there, but it is an adventure if nothing else."

"For you?" Rose lolled her tongue to the side, "I am definitely into that," only half joking.

She laughed quietly. "See? I knew it! This is why you're the best, Jack!"

Like being able to breathe again after holding your breath for a very long time. "Don't worry, I've seen how he gets from guilt, I'm not doing that to myself or anyone else anytime soon."

She finally dropped the hug, and dragged him off again. "So there's the library which is in a giant tree named from Norse mythology, which I think is aliens according to Doctor Jane Foster. And the museum has fun things in it, and also wax daleks and cyberman, they're solid wax though, no wiring, I promise. And Mr. V lives there, he's one of my favorites! And Gothdonald's is in the West, and you have to be careful of the spiders there. Leather Jacket Doctor lives there too--" Rose fell apart into giggles. Jack was the only one she'd ever tell. "He pushed himself too much and collapsed and spiders kidnapped him and Leia and Nita had to rescue him from the Queen. So pretty much everyone thinks he's obsessed with trying to make peace with them now, and he was talking about making the house a moving castle with spider legs."

Total troll face, she's a devious little thing. "And the 4th Doctor is scarfy. He says his brain is fractured from how he regenerated, but he's probably the most stable of all of 'em. The 8th is currently staying with him and before that had taken over a church for the complete and total goth aesthetic," she shook her head, still amused. "And Fluffy, that's Ten, um Pinstripes, Brown eyes," she points to her own eyes. "Had the Head of the Task Force, Irene, she's hilarious and did the good guide, she made the Box here. TARDIS-ish, it can't move or fly, and it's missing her soul, and the other three go nuts from it, and came after Ten, so they generally don't come hang out very often, which is a cryin' shame. So I begged 9 to come um... sleep with me more often." She would correct herself to say it wasn't like that, but it was exactly like that. "And I made a snow room in it! OH! And there's these crazy storms and I got turned into a pony, a wolf, a music teacher, and pathetic-evil. It was kind of funny in retrospect. But they're not always good. And the Doctor doesn't like being changed. Side effect of regenerating I guess."

"Being guilty doesn't suit you at all Rose." Jack agreed with a little laugh as they continued their tour.

"Is there some reason for memorializing the daleks and cybermen?" That just seemed like an odd concept. Wax versions held no harm of course, but who wanted to remember?

"It doesn't surprise me that the Doctor has some unusual hobbies." He chuckled, well spiders could be reasoned with couldn't they? It depended on if they were sentient or not.

"Now what exactly is a snow room? A room full of snow?" That wouldn't be terribly useful, fun perhaps, but not useful.

"I certainly hope this Box is roomier on the inside or you might be a little cramped. Or maybe, that's how you like it." Jack teased a little bit. He wouldn't begrudge Rose luring the doctor into her bed, God knew he'd do it if he could pull it off.

"I've never heard of such a storm. What causes that?"

A quiet hum. "Sooooo, Nautilus hangs near the well-- let's call it a field of chaos. Although it's more like a ring. Or an orb... ohhhh look at me, I sound like the Doctor!" Rose giggled. "Anyway, sometimes the chaos gets to be a bit much, and that causes the storms. Sort of an overflow of chaos, from what I understand. Oh! And I think that's why the wax figures are in the museum too. Sort of a "just in case" from Nautilus himself to warn the rest of the population, yeah?"

Another giggle, "Well, it's not real snow. And it's basically to help the Doctor meditate and calm down. I made it as a Christmas present for him! You have to see it."

And YET MORE GIGGLES. She's so giddy to have her other bff around. "It's bigger, but I don't mind cramped. He was sleeping on a bottom bunkbed but he kept waking up to me snuggled on his chest so we got a bigger bed. And then I made the 9th doctor come join us too. Wanna surprise 'em?" EVIL GRIN.

"Now you have me curious Rose Tyler." He grinned. "You do have to show me this room."

Jack laughed, oh he appreciated Rose's devious side.

"I would love to surprise them. Anytime."
