Rose loved going with him for coffee, watching the usually sardonic woman turn to mush over the dark Scotsman. Does no one else have this reaction to Peter? I'd be quite surprised about that.
She wondered if perhaps she might do well to tell Peter exactly how different he was A direct comparison? That could backfire too.
His hair was hopeless, standing on end in many different directions; *enjoys the image*
He turned to her, handing her a coffee; Aww, I was hoping for some funny antics between him and Gretchen.
Peter did delight in teasing her, seeing if he could distract her whilst they worked on the crossword, or as she was on a phone call with Jake. Could Jake tell? ;0)
She was surprised at how bereft she felt when he was gone; how empty the flat felt. My swami sense detects foreshadowing...
she really did need to have a talk with her supervisors at Torchwood to see what her options were for moving to Kendal. Assuming, of course, Peter didn’t get a job with the Met. Wouldn't it be awful if they both moved and just sort of swapped?
It was exactly the type of environment he would thrive in, and she found herself grow giddy with the possibility that he might finally get the recognition he had so long been denied. He might find himself a bit more plagued by zanzare and the problems of dating a celebrity.
spent far too much time looking for a pair of shoes which would complement the dress but wouldn’t be too ‘dressy.’ Don't we all?
His hair was still damp and had been combed back; as she pulled back from kissing him, she ruffled his hair. I think the combed back look is also good.
Peter had so few friends, it was usually she who was looking for their dinner companions, whilst Peter stood by, people-watching. What other friends have doubled with them?
It wasn’t Elias. It was bloody Sir Robert from Scotland. From Torchwood House. But will she tell Peter? Maybe it would put him at ease, actually, knowing another person he knows had a double.
Sir Robert—Elias—gave her a steady gaze as he took her hand. “Have we met, Ms. Tyler?” So he noticed her reaction?
At least he wasn’t Scottish. I'd love to see her surprised with that Glaswegian accent.
She fought down a wince. She had a bad habit of slipping into “heiress” mode in social circumstances; I didn't really notice anything especially formal or impersonal so far, so I'm not sure what the problem is.
