Summary
He shifts uncomfortably, and though she doesn't turn, he’s positive she knows. It's only a moment before she had a partner, a tall, young fellow with a broad chest and large hands, falling to her hips where his would have gone to her back. The fabric of her skirt peels aside every so often to reveal a long stretch of leg up to the tops of her thigh, calves stretched by heels - tall, but solid, easy to move in, dance in, run in.
He doesn't know why that occurs to him. Normal people don't run.

Summary
Gritting her teeth, she finally looks over at the Doctor who’s been working, or trying, in the next row over. Sitting on his tweed jacket, he’s covered from head to toe with dirt—it’s smeared over his forearms where his sleeves are rolled up, across his forehead and even some behind his ear. She has to admit, he looks delectable, even as he struggles to push his plant into the dirt. She barely stifles a laugh when it lashes out and bites his hand.

and she lets the river answer that you've always been her lover by hihoplastic

Summary
It’s not unusual to be propositioned by the resort guests. It happens at least once a week, much to his chagrin—always with a drunken smirk and a well-placed tip, like he can be bought for an extra few pounds. But there’s something different in the way she’s asking, the teasing lilt to her voice—like she knows, like she’s mocking them, not him, and while he has very little doubt she would and could eat him alive if so inclined, there’s something else. Something deeper. He’s been here a year, and become an expert in recognising sadness and shame—it rolls off people here in waves. Bad business decisions, complicated affairs—but it’s different, with her. Darker. There’s a caution in the way she moves, an edge to her voice that he’s never heard before, and it makes him curious. Draws him in.
He intends to say no. Intends to turn her down flat and go back to his business and forget all about the strange encounter, but instead what he blurts out is, “I don’t even know your name.”
Her expression softens, like it’s one of the most heartfelt things anyone’s ever asked her. Moving back toward the bar, she holds out a hand. “River,” she says. “River Song.”
Without thinking, he shakes her hand.

Summary
It’s not unusual to see women - anyone, really - sitting on a bench looking at the river. The weather’s nice enough, though he’d much rather be at his usual cafe, sitting in his usual comfy chair. During the daytime, his fondness for the outdoors is limited to patios and the occasional park - neither of which are particularly suitable for stargazing in the city - but his regular seat had been occupied by a morose-looking elderly couple and all the other seats had been taken up by professors and researches and, to his disgust, archaeologists attending a conference at the Savoy.
What is unusual, however, is her posture—her head is bowed, hair falling over it, but her spine is ramrod straight, hands clenched in her lap, and as he moves closer he can see she’s taking slow, even-measured breaths.

Summary
He’d picked her up nearly a week ago, declaring it the Month of Christmas, and has steadfastly refused to return her to Stormcage until after the 25th.
“That could be any time, sweetie,” she’d reminded him, only to have him grin and tap her nose.
“Exactly.”

She’s barely seated before he pulls a large book out of his pocket, thrusting it under her nose. “I’m looking for a gemstone.”
Vastra glares up at him a moment, but nonetheless opens the book to the cover page. “What kind of gemstone?”

Summary
The Doctor frowns, bite halfway to his mouth, then rolls his eyes at his wife’s innocent pout. She’s difficult to resist on the best of days, but now, with her legs draped out the TARDIS door, socked feet swinging in space, it’s impossible.

Everything reminds him of her, every thought, every decision he hears her voice in his head, wrong door, sweetie when he's trying to find the wardrobe, that much sugar will make you sick, when he's making tea, oh just use the bloody stabilizers when he's careening around the control room.

Summary
Getting across the border is easy enough. She steps over countless bodies to do it, but she’s quicker than a group, smarter than any one soldier, and avoids the landmines and snipers without issue. It’s what she was trained for, after all, and she supposes there’s an irony in using the skill set to save the man she was supposed to kill, again.
