The Doctor was, though one would never hear him admit it, rather giddy. His hands flew lightly over the console, setting coordinates with cheerful confidence. India, 2007. He wasn't too specific; no need to press his luck, and they could find other ways of travel once they arrived. See where the current matches were being played.

Perhaps they could take a train. He hadn't done that since the werewolves, and that was hardly a leisurely ride.

"Winter, then," he murmured, brow furrowed slightly in concentration, though a faint smile lingered on his lips.

Nyssa wanted to go, for him. Perhaps he shouldn't feel so incredibly touched by that, but he did.

He was determined, absolutely determined, that the three of them would have an enjoyable, relaxing time of it. No murder investigations, no devious plots uncovered, no sinister invaders thwarted.

It would be their first trip together since being reunited, and they were going to have fun.

"You flatter us both, Nyssa," the Doctor said, smiling softly.

"I quite like it, as well - so many people to meet, and to find again."

He preened, noticeably. "Why thank you, Nyssa. I've always been quite aware, of course, but it's nice to hear it confirmed."

"It's the meeting people who have no intention of killing me that really seals the deal for me." Turlough shrugged. "Though really it's in a different playing field when you take into account that my friends are here."

"It isn't flattery if it's true, though I'm tempted to take it back before it gets to Vislor's head." She grinned, peeking out from over the Doctor to grace Turlough with a look of teasing affection before settling close to the Doctor.

"I haven't met as many new people as I would like. Rose seems a lovely sort, and I don't suppose I can count meeting your Ninth and Tenth selves as a meeting so much as a reunion..."

"I think that might well be a good idea," the Doctor said lightly, grinning at Turlough.

"It is a refreshing change, isn't it?" He looked to Nyssa again, nodding thoughtfully.

"Perhaps we ought to have a sort of...gathering, when we get back. A way to meet people."
