Summary; Someone has to tell Rose how Jenny even exists. Someone else has to eavesdrop
Log;

Rose is, quite frankly, glad she was on her way home when Jenny arrived in the City. She's not sure she could have continued to function at work. Right now, she's shocked, absolutely angry, hurt and she feels a bit guilty about all of that. Jenny seems sweet, like someone she'd get along with--will get along with. It's certainly not Jenny's fault that her father is a lying, man-slut--backtrack. She doesn't know that. She's got to give him a chance to explain himself, doesn't she? Of course she does. There's probably a perfectly good reason why he didn't tell her that between the time she got lost and the time she found him again, he had a daughter. She can't think of what that reason would be right now but...there's surely one.

In any case, she is pacing the living room, oh so beautifully painted like the console room of the TARDIS, and trying to come up with a rational, calm response to him.

Because rational and calm are words everyone uses to describe Rose Tyler

Open Thread Post fighting HI!

[iwasherefirst]

Rose wanders back into the main room a bit sheepishly, squeezing the Doctor's hand in hers as her eyes find Jenny and she smiles a bit at her.

She feels guilty now that everything is squared away. She waves a little at the Doctor she wasn't fighting with and at Donna.

"Got everything sorta straightened away."

The Doctor just needed to be yelled at and then have a chance to explain. Or something like that. It's good for him.

[am_i_being_rude]

He, on the other hand, appears entirely back to normal; happy and ready for greetings and not at all like someone who was just yelled at immediately upon returning home.

'Donna! Hi! Look! I assume you all have had introductions, and even though you two have met, Jenny, Rose; Rose, Jenny. Both very important people. For vastly different reasons.'

For all the nonchalance he is still watching for reactions. He's not sure how his other self is going to feel about her, particularly given Rose's response.

[ooc: idk if I'm supposed to go here but I only have like four tags so have me anyway.]

Well, Jenny is still a little hesitant. There was a lot of yelling in that other room, after all. And it was obvious what it was about. Although now that they've come out holding hands and her dad is smiling and happy that does go a long way toward making it seem as if everything might be okay between him and this Rose, despite Jenny's being present in this place.

She clasps her hands behind her back, rocking back from her toe to her heel and to her toes again. Her eyes light up with very nearly the same excitement her Dads so often seem to illuminate. It's a new beginning, and maybe Rose will like her now. And maybe she can stay here where there are familiar people about. Maybe.

"Hello Rose! I like meeting all my Dad's friends in person." She glances down to the joined hands, over to Donna, over to her other dad. "Only it seems a bit more friendly, yeah? That's what holding hands with someone who isn't family means?"

And then to Donna. "Does he hold your hand too?" Oh, curiosity... she has it.
