She even remembered to leave a note this time.  
It was a first for her, to remember to leave notes behind in Milliways. One to Bart to let him know she'd be back shortly (and with a gift for him), one to Teddy to tell him Bart would take care of whatever needs he may have while she was gone, and one to Edward in case Alice had failed to tell them where they had gone (which she doubted, but she thought Edward would still appreciate the maturity).

And that was that. The shuttle fridge was stocked with deer blood provided by Bar in case her guest got hungry. The interior itself was as neat as it would ever get; scattered with souvenirs of her travels. By the console were photographs: of Jenny and Bart mostly, although Alice would be able to recognise a certain bronze haired individual sitting next to the Gallifreyan in another.

She turned around as soon as there was space for Alice to fit in as well and smiled brightly. It felt good to escape, just for a while. Really good.

"Like it?" Jenny tilted her head, watching the vampire with curiosity. "Edward did. He liked flying her more than anything, I think."

"France is on Earth, right?"

Just checking. There are way too many countries on Earth to keep track of them all sometimes.

"Yes, I do a lot of my shopping there. They have a great underwear selection." Alice grins. "Oooh, Jenny, you're the best for bringing me here."

"I am?"

Jenny doesn't necessarily agree that bringing Alice shopping qualifies her as the best, but compliments still are nice.

"I thought this is the sort of things sisters do."
