Doctor Who Drabble: Priceless

[bk_forever]

Title: Priceless
Author: badly_knitted
Characters: River Song.
Rating: G
Written For: Challenge 230: Bauble / Babble / Bobble at dw100.
Spoilers: The Husbands Of River Song.
Summary: If River is going to get her hands on this particular diamond, she’s going to need some help.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Doctor Who, or the characters.




The Halassi Androvar is perfect, flawless, priceless beyond belief, the most valuable diamond in the universe. All other diamonds, indeed all other gems of any kind, pale into insignificance beside it, mere baubles, worthless trinkets, insignificant bits of shiny mineral. River should know; she’s seen, stolen, and owned enough of them.


She’s never owned this one though, not yet, and her fingers itch because it’s so close and yet so far, lodged inside the equally insignificant brain of her ‘husband’. She’s supposed to return it to the Halassi, but…


First, looks like she needs a surgeon. Heads don’t remove themselves.

It's hardly surprising there are so many accidents on the roads when there are so many idiots behind the wheel. It's the law that you have to stop for school crossing guards.

Of course people can die because of these idiots. I knew of a child being killed because someone didn't obey the speed limit at a school zone.

Incidents like this are unacceptable! I wish I could do something more than be angry with this issue.*frustrated*

[bk_forever]

Same here. I just don't understand why perfectly sensible people turn into idiots as soon as they get behind the wheel of a car.

I think it is a combination of impatience and arrogance. Like they're invincible. It can cause road rage.:(

[bk_forever]

And then it puts others' lives in danger =(

I know!*angry at them*

That should be enough motivation not to do stupid and dangerous things.

[bk_forever]

It should be, but it's like a kind of insanity and they never seem top realise they're putting their own lives in danger.

If they can't be rational, than they need to be off the road pronto. Not after an incident or a fatality has occurred.:(

The law can only warn people so much by penalty not to be dumb about driving.

Unfortunately there's no way to know beforehand if someone is suddenly going to behave like an idiot. =(

[cynthia2015.livejournal.com]

That's is so true. It's scary and so very wrong.:(

[bk_forever]

Yeah =(
