Please don't ask me to make a post. [Because he'll do it because his friends seem keen to flipping do it, but he's not keen on the idea.

He sighs, grateful (though not really) that he doesn't remember enough about his own to have nightmares, or if he does, they're vague shapes that look more like the Doctor's than his.] Are you all right?

Why would I do that? [He really, really wishes he had more patience right now. If he had just waited for the flood to end...] Yes. It's nothing new, is it? [He's had those since Gallifrey's destruction.]

Misery loves company. Lessens the blow.

Broadcasting it to the entire barge is. Fortunately, it's been a couple of days, so people are more likely to be bored rather than intrigued.

I wouldn't want you to be miserable.

And I doubt any of them would be unaffected by watching their people burn. It's not the worst I could have said...

[He smiles at that, before becoming serious again.] No, but they haven't exactly gone through it by and large, have they? We all have secrets.

They should hope they don't have to. And as I said, it's not the worst I could have said. A... minor inconvenience. [No, it isn't. But he doesn't want to admit more, right now.]

People are ungrateful. [He just snorts at the ;minor inconvenience'. It's not funny.] Right.

Aren't they? [Have a sigh. Of the long suffering sort.] I didn't talk about my daughter. Or the Divergents.

So you don't dream about her?

[Oh, Omega, why do you always make him talk about his issues?] ...I never denied that.

No. You shouldn't be ashamed of your paternal side. I'm not saying you are, but this is not a side of you that you should be ashamed of.

And I'm not. I... never would be ashamed of her. Or our people.

Even the troublesome ones? [He saw that reaction to Romana.]

...Of my people as a whole. There may be exceptions for certain individuals.

Of course. [He's decided to find that amusing.]

[Have a pout, Omega.]

[That is not decreasing his amusement. He gives him a cheeky smile.]

[More pouting. Why do you always find him so amusing? He's not.] What is so funny, my friend?

Rassil Onasti Prydonius, Lord High President of Gallifrey, pouting.

[...] That - !

Why should I not? [Hmph.]

You absolutely should, my friend!

You're making fun of me! [Still pouting. So much.]

Only with the warmest spirit, my friend, I assure you.

[He sighs melodramatically.] That's what you always say. [But he's smiling. A little.]

[His smile warms.] Quite possibly because it's always true.
