1. Make a list of the gifts that you would give to other people, if money and power were no object.

[ooc: Individuals mentioned from a variety of different games/verses/what have you. Point is? They are all individuals on her friends list that Sarah has gifts in mind for.]

[livejournal.com profile] born_running: A trip about the galaxy, completely danger free and preferably with the Doctor and K-9 joining us.

[livejournal.com profile] callitavesper: What do you give the man who has given you something as precious as a daughter, a husband and a proper family? I wish I could give you everything your heart desired. In the end, I think the only gift I can give you is the promise that I will always, always be there for you. I love you. And, materialistically? It would most certainly be a framed photograph of our family.

[livejournal.com profile] clever_wanderer: I think a box of tissues might be appropriate, considering all the crying I seem to do around you. But any gift? I’d find some way to fix the TARDIS for you. I know you aren’t happy with the way she’s acting right now. I just… oh, I wish I could make everything right for you.

[livejournal.com profile] cocky_cockney: Men are From Mars, Women are From Venus. :D?

[livejournal.com profile] coffeekingianto: A pretty little China teapot and some Darjeeling tea. If that doesn’t convince you of tea’s value, I honestly don’t know what will.

[livejournal.com profile] eleventh_doctor: I think you need a bright pink teddy bear that says best mum. You certainly can be to Luke when you want to.

[livejournal.com profile] exiled_prof: Perhaps… oh, if I could give you anything? It might just be a child.

[livejournal.com profile] gethin_jones: An extra helmet for whenever he’s not alone on his bike.

[livejournal.com profile] hapan_heiress: A shopping spree at Hamley’s.

[livejournal.com profile] i_heart_winona: A weapon good enough to replace Wynonna.

[livejournal.com profile] izzie_mcphee: Most definitely a good pair of running shoes.

[livejournal.com profile] j_harkness11: I think I may just be willing to offer to babysit at some point so you and Ianto can enjoy some time alone.

[livejournal.com profile] londonsdaughter: A practical guide on how to travel with the Doctor, complete with illustrations on how to best thwack him when not listening. It’ll quite possibly be written by yours truly, if you don’t mind, Donna.

[livejournal.com profile] lost_a_hand: Not quite the best gift in the universe, but a banana milksahke and the promise to be the best companion I ever can from this point out. This time, I’m not giving you any reason to leave me behind.

[livejournal.com profile] lovetolongago: Another kiss. Or, if not, a trip for two to this new Earth we’ve found ourselves on.

[livejournal.com profile] ninewho: A silly Hawaiian shirt, the tackier the better. You need some sort of colour to brighten up your wardrobe.

[livejournal.com profile] not_on_her_own: I know the perfect gift for you, Maria: a leather bound journal so you can start some writings of your own.

[livejournal.com profile] not_tindog: A K-9 unit of your very own. Someone like you ought to have one.

[livejournal.com profile] notanarc: My prized typewriter. I need to give it up sometime, and I can’t think of anyone else I’d rather give it to than a fellow journalist and a wonderful friend.

[livejournal.com profile] queenofmay: It may be a children’s book, but I think it might give you some insight to what women of both the modern world and the past are quite capable of: Lives of Extraordinary Women. And another book, Literature of the Women’s Suffrage Campaign in England. I do hope you find both useful.

[livejournal.com profile] rude_not_ginger: I think that, perhaps, I would want to get you a kitten. I have very fond memories of rather enjoying my time with a kitten who had your personality, after all.

[livejournal.com profile] shot_my_shoes: Your own little yacht. Then, if you wanted, you could have your own travels to gloat about someday.

[livejournal.com profile] slasherofprices: If I could control such matters, it would be another chance at life and this time with me and Luke in the picture.

[livejournal.com profile] thecricketer: Would you fancy a new cricket set? I’d even be willing to throw in a game or two with you, if you promise to make the odds more interesting. Say, winner has to treat the other to trip of his or her choice?

[livejournal.com profile] thedoctorwho: A part of me wishes that I could give you my promise that I’ll never do anything to make you cross again, but I know that isn’t true. So it would have to be a photograph I took one day when you were lounging about Milliways. So that you remember that you can always visit me here.

[livejournal.com profile] toshtosh: One of the Doctor’s old sonic screwdrivers.

[livejournal.com profile] velvetdoc: Some silly gizmo that you could have fun playing with. I wouldn’t understand it at all, of course, but I’m certain you’d try to explain to me anyway.

[livejournal.com profile] walkineternity: I would work up the courage to give you the absolute and honest truth about how much I adore you.

[livejournal.com profile] works_in_space: Most certainly another trip to James’ London.

Party!

[ooc: based roughly on rps with [livejournal.com profile] thecricketer]

He doesn’t exactly look like her Doctor, but she knows that it is still him when she looks into his eyes; she feels that it’s him when their thoughts intermix in concert with their bodies. There’s no one else in the universe that looks at her like that or makes her experience the way he does.

When she’s with him in these hours, it’s as if their hosting their own private party and their own private dance and Sarah Jane can’t ever imagine enjoying any other more. They beat out a rhythm all their own to music that echoes in the willowy rooms of the TARDIS. Nothing else and no one else exists at these parties. It is only the two of them, enjoying this strange sort of development they have found themselves in.

They do more than just dance at these parties, of course. Sometimes he tries to teach her cricket and she just comments on how field hockey is clearly the best of games. Oft times, they simply sit together for a cup of tea and she encourages him to tell her stories of everything that she has missed – everything that she will miss when she finally leaves him in her own continuum – and she listens, always attentive to every single word.

He’s her best friend and she likes to imagine that she’s still his despite whatever years have past. He had said that he would never forget her. At their small parties for two, Sarah works hard to make sure that that promise will always remain fact.

When the party finally dies, he always escorts her back to the moment in time and space that she stole away from to come and visit him. This is something that never ceases to amaze her – that he actually escorts her back to the proper moment repeatedly. But he never does say goodbye when it is time for him to leave. Instead, he kisses her softly and walks away.

It’s the first time that he does this that she remembers all over again just how important he has become to her. He’s her life now, no matter the shape or form. And Sarah Jane promises herself that she’ll always be there for him as long as he possibly can.

The first time that Sarah Jane dances with her Doctor, the one with the scarf and the curly hair that she’s so accustomed to, she doesn’t feel any twinge of guilt. She can’t, cause this version of him needs her just as much as the other and even if the parties they have aren’t quite the same, the same sentiment is still there. The same music plays when they dance and she sees the same look in his eyes after they kiss. No matter the shape and form, it’s him at the core.

She always remains proud of the fact that she had finally propositioned him in the control room, and the next time she sees his future self shortly afterwards, they laugh at her impulsiveness over tea and biscuits. Their private party has one again begun.

Years later, she’ll think back to it all and realise what made these gatherings just so special. Their small little parties were about so much more than love and need. They were about celebrating life to the fullest, and celebrating just being alive.

No other party can ever compare to that.
