[Sveta's back, friends! She's on the deck, dressed as if going to a ceremony. A long white dress whispers around her ankles and her hair falls loose around her face. She looks as if she had been crying once, but has since brushed it off, revealing only a few faint splotches of red around her eyes. She sets the camera down and takes a deep breath.]

Destiny. We're all supposed to have one, yes? We're all supposed to follow it. But I never knew you could change it.

[She holds up her hands to show them. They're covered in a faint white dust which she brushes off quickly, creating a small cloud.]

Chalkdust. [She gives the camera a very serious look.] It might as well be bloodstains. [She reaches into a small purse and pulls out a cigarette, lighting it quickly. Yeah. Sveta smokes. Enjoy that.]

Fuck them. I'm not going back.

[Private to Ardent]

I can erase Destiny. They asked me to erase the Destiny of a young boy.

[Private to Howie]

I'm back. [A soft laugh.] Obviously. He didn't stop me.

[Filtered to Friends]

Give me tonight. Then tomorrow, get me drunk. Or something.

[[OOC: So. Apologies for the Sveta spam again. BUT...Sveta's had a canon update, yay! The details of that will come later! For now, she's just a little freaked out. Also, feel free to spam if you want. She'll be up on deck for a while.]

[Sveta nodded and slipped into the water.]

Tell me what's happened since I left. I don't care if it's mundane.

[Martha considered for a moment, and she thought of things that were light and amusing and just easy. So, she started at what she thought was the best place.]

Well, I think you left before Biff showed up to the party. I was only there for a moment before. But the next morning, he woke up on the network. Literally, just woke up right there on the network.

[Martha slipped off the side into the water, and she went under it, bobbing up slowly so that she acclimated to the temperature. After a second, she continued her story.] So, he comes on, and his hair, his whole hair is neon pink.

[Sveta began to giggle slightly.]

Really? Was he able to get rid of it?

That's not even the half of it, though.

[Martha grinned a bit more.]

The first thing we see are his finger nails, and they're bright red. Like fire engine emergency light red. And then we see his face and he's wearing all of the eye makeup on the barge. I'm thinking it was tubes and tubes of the stuff. Shadow, eye liner and mascara.

The best bit?

[Martha swam a bit closer to her friend.]

It was only on one eye.

Oh no! [She giggled again, moving back so that she could lean against the edge of the shallow end.]

That's so funny! It sounds like he had a good night.

I expect he did, considering I think he may have woken up with Molly.

[Martha laughed quickly, and then she shrugged.]

At least it's a step up from Randal.

[Her jaw dropped slightly.] Biff...and Molly? [She shook her head at that.] Wow.

He'd be good to her, I think. [She paused for a moment before she shook her head.]

He would be, really.

Biff's adorable and uncomplicated. I expect it'll do them both a bit of good.

[Martha paused for a moment, thinking of other light things.]

Arthur showed up, were you there for that part?

...no. Did he wake up having slept with someone? [She was starting to think this might be a trend.]

I don't know if he did or not. But he shows up, wanders right in and everyone is really very drunk at that point. So he sees Sarah, who announces that he's here to act as entertainment. Then people start wooting and whistling and cat-calling and Sarah just points to the bar and is trying to get him to strip on it.

Did he?

[Martha just treaded water as she spoke.]

Nope. He offered to make us drinks and then he ended up in the crowd. I left then

[She reached up and touched one of the fading pieces of green in her hair, glad it would be going back to it's normal color soon.]

It sounds like a very, very wild night. [Sveta giggled softly.] I'm almost sorry I had to leave.

It was a good one. We'll need to do it again sometime soon. I think we all just really needed to cut loose and just burn off some stress and energy.

I'm sorry you had to leave as well, but I know you did it for a good reason.

Maybe. And...yeah. [She looked awkward for a moment, just letting her feet swish in the pool for a while.]

[Awkwardness, she was surrounded by it right now and she didn't like it one bit. For a moment she couldn't think of anything else to say and just went under water for a minute as if it could somehow fix it.]

[When Martha went under, Sveta stood up and walked over to get her towel. She didn't leave, but she didn't much feel like swimming any longer.]

[Martha blinked with surprised when she needed to look for Sveta, and then she swam over to the wall, crossing her arms and leaning on it. She just watches her friend in a very worried fashion.]

Is there anything I can do, Sveta?

[She wanted to argue, because she knew it wasn't all right, but she was also rather good at being a distraction.]

Did I ever tell you about the time I met Shakespeare?

No. [She tilted her head to the side.]

At least, I don't think so. What was he like?

He was like... Mick Jagger, really. The Doctor had taken me back to thank me for saving his life, and it was our first proper adventure. I was worried, 'cause not exactly white, really and I know that well.. slavery. But the Doctor told me I'd be safe [She looked at Sveta with a grin at that, because they both knew the Doctor.] and I was young and naive and trusted him. [Her words were fond and joking and spoken with a smile.]

So he takes me to the Globe, and we stand and watch Love's Labour's Lost and then at the curtain call, I start making a chant for author right? 'Course I've got no idea if they did it, but once I'd done it, a bunch of other people do it do and out comes William Shakespeare, all blowing kissing and punching the air and kicking out at it.

[She giggled softly, nodding at the look she gave her about the Doctor.] That's great, Martha.

I'm glad that you were able to see that!
