Relatively peaceful and the TARDIS were concepts that still did not entirely go together in Sarah Jane's head. But, for the most part, that was how life had been since they had left England. Rather than choosing any particular planet, they had just... well, just stayed wherever the TARDIS stayed when not on any particular planet or in any particular time.

Not that it was a bad thing. It gave Sarah a chance to settle back in to her room. It gave her a chance to discover that, yes indeed, Sawyer had found her bed to be a wonderful place to rest. And it gave both her and the Doctor a chance to reconnect.

She had never truly realised how much she had missed him until he had come back in her life.

Still, it seemed quite clear that this relative peaceful time on board the TARIDS would end soon enough. She had her suspicions, after all, when she found him sitting in the console room fiddling about with the controls. Sarah Jane stood there for a moment, watching him.

And then, giving the medieval dress she had found in the Wardrobe a little twirl. "Well, Doctor? What do you think?"

She beamed at him, shuffling over in the soggy dirt so that she could rest her head against his arm. A part of Sarah Jane wondered if he would mind. It was a part of her that was quickly forgotten when the Doctor began to talk about suns.

"I'll go with one and a half, just for the sheer unlikeliness of the situation," Sarah said, grinning. She could just now make out the horizon of a never-ending ocean. "One's still being born, you see. It'll be quite an event - and no, you never did, Doctor."

"How remiss of me." He shook his head a little at Sarah's guess of one and a half - not at all scientific but completely poetic. It suited her.

"One sun, of course, is much more common on habitable planets due to..." He stopped himself from getting into the astrophysics of it all; this wasn't the time for a lecture on it. "But the colours of a duel sunrise are something to be seen."

So, he promised himself. He'd take her to see one soon. For now he sat in silence and watched as the rising sun came up over the ocean, disapating the gloomy fog.

It became quite clear soon on that this planet, whatever it was, only possessed one sun. Still, it shone brightly and illuminated beautiful green-blue waters crashing on to shore. The muddy ground beneath them was revealed not to be sand but some gray, clay like substance. At least the dark hadn't lied about certain things.

"It is beautiful, though," she murmured, stifling a small yawn. "It's been far too long since I took the time out for a sunrise like that. Perhaps it isn't so horrible that we didn't make it to New Orleans."

Mardi Gras would, after all, come and go. They had hundreds of thousands of years of Mardi Gras to see, whenever it suited their fancy.
