Well, New Years Eve went exceedingly well, I think. My thanks to Mr Wayne for throwing the party. I've hardly left home over the last few days. I've been... busy, you know

I'm glad you had a good New Years, Doctor.

[thexunnamed]

Oh, yes, thanks. How was yours, Claire? I hardly saw you at the party, but I must say, you looked stunning.

[catalytics]

Thanks. I...mine was okay, all things considered. Didn't have anyone to kiss me at midnight this year, but there's always next year, right?

[thexunnamed]

Right - and you know, in some cultures, it's considered good luck if you spend the stroke of midnight simply making peace with yourself. Also, in some cultures, they consider kissing an insult, so... there you have it.

[hermaidenheart]

The city seeeems to be peaceful. Expecting any threats?

[thexunnamed]

Well, just before Christmas, there was an outbreak of some kind. Apparently, it's under control now, but one can never be too careful, eh?

[hermaidenheart]

Think I missed that thankfully. Epidemics are never any fun.

[thexunnamed]

No, not usually. Especially when there's quarantines and things. I don't do well under lock-and-key.

[obscurisvera]

If there is any threats, they have yet to be heard on the news.

[thexunnamed]

Ah, and how reliable is the news, do you think?

[obscurisvera]

Ah, it hasn't failed us yet, has it?

[thexunnamed]

It may have, and we might not even know it.

[missrosetyler]

New Years Eve was very unexpected. Especially that trip. But busy, yeah. I like busy.

[thexunnamed]

You do? Yes, so do I.

At the library, love?

[missrosetyler]

I'm glad that you agree.

I am, sweetheart. I've actually been getting the hang of this job. How's lecturing life treating you?

[thexunnamed]

It's going well. Today I taught a class about special relativity. I think about three people even understood it!
