The Husbands of River Song (TV story): Difference between revisions

Flemming takes River's diary, explaining it is a guide to the best replacement head in the universe: the head of the Doctor. Scratch backs this up as the Doctor is a legendary being with multiple faces, which would be Hydroflax's crowning achievement. Flemming reads the diary, noting River's been to [[Asgard]] for a picnic, [[The Time of Angels (TV story)|the crash of the Byzantium]] (which was turned into a movie), has met [[Jim the Fish]] (who is known by everyone in this era) and [[The Angels Take Manhattan (TV story)|has just been to Manhattan]] (which Flemming thinks is a planet).

River is asked for the whereabouts of the Doctor, to which she truthfully doesn't know. The robot confirms it with a scan. However, Flemming believes that putting the Doctor's [[consort]] in danger will draw him in. However, River snaps at him; though she loves the Doctor, he never once said that he loved her. River tells them to scan for two hearts and stupid clothes, but they won't find him. The Doctor tries telling River who he is, but stops when River tells them the Doctor is above falling in love; ''"You don't expect a sunset to admire you back. When you love the Doctor, it's like loving the stars themselves."'' She then adds that he wouldn't be sentimental enough to be stuck in this situation with her. Breathing heavily from venting her feelings, River notices the Doctor's steady gaze and mild smirk. She gives a confused look, to which he says "Hello, sweetie."
