It's Your Fault I'm Like This

This is a tiny, tiny chapter. In this episode, I guess Alexis is trying to teach Erik what his Halloween costume was based on. Its purpose is to provide a break between the Halloween and Christmas chapters.... this authors note is now longer than the actual story.

“What’s a Dalek?”

“If you paid as much attention to the screen as you did to my lap, you’d already know.”

I didn’t try to deny this and stuffed my mouth with the remainder of my Popsicle, which was so juicy, and dripping with stickiness, and PHALLIC.

“Who’s the girl with the huge rack?”

Alexis frowned. “The Doctor’s companion. She’s been present throughout the entire episode.”

“Seriously? What does she do?”

“Well…the Doctor’s companions pretty much just follow him to the ends of the universe, recklessly diving headfirst into danger and risking their lives for him.”

“Sounds like a pretty shitty job to me. I hope they get paid well.”

“They don’t get paid at all. They do it of their own free will, out of pure awe and admiration for the Doctor.”

“No shit?” I yawned and stretched out across the bed.

“…If you were the Doctor, I wouldn’t hesitate to be your companion.”

“Wow thanks! …That was like a compliment or something, right?”

He glanced at the ceiling. “Yeah, it was like a compliment or something.” He hit the stop button as the credits began to roll. “Do you want another Popsicle?”

“A flesh popsicle? Yes, yes I do.”
