Irving Braxiatel. Terribly sorry, but I am far too busy to answer the phone just now, but please do leave a message. Don't reverse the charges. Thank you.
[He's been out and about for a while. They sadly haven't spent a whole hell of a lot of time together before this in a long time. And Eight's forgetful.]
Maybe it runs in the family.
Hm, you have a point. [He shakes his head, looking a little bashful about all this. Happy, but bashful.] Good grief, look at me. I never pictured myself doing this. I mean, Eleven's married, but from what he tells me, it has quite an unusual story behind it. And here I thought I'd be able to get some advice from him.
[That was a hilarious disaster. Oh, Eleven. At least he'd given good advice in suggesting Fiona come along to help with the ring buying.]
She is definitely the one in charge in that relationship. Though I'm amazed a woman with a libido like hers puts up with his flailing. Not that I really want to know how she manages. The woman would certainly give Jack Harkness a run for his money.
I hope so. I really want to make Charley happy with this. I know we'll forget all of this when we leave, but I want it to be special even so.
The rest of us will muddle through without wives. [Even if he were guaranteed reciprocation, a decent part of Brax simply doesn't want to conduct a relationship, with Romana or anyone.]
Is it really a tragedy, Doctor? Everyone I've known seemed to have wanted me dead at one point or another. Hardly seems fair to marry any of them. [Nope! No tragedy here!]
[Brax is not guessing. Brax knows. "We'll see" indeed. He narrows his eyes at him.]
Hm. Well, it's a bit up in the air at the moment, I have few alternatives I'm thinking of. I'll call you later when I have a better idea? [Or a surprise will do.]
All right. [Of course, now his temptation to be equally evil to the Doctor as the Doctor's being to him is warring with his desire to make this nice. You are very lucky, Doctor that his romantic side will win.]

[His tone is slightly sad about that. Come on, Brax.]

So, about the proposal...[He grins just a bit.] Are you going to let me know what you've got planned, will I be just as surprised when I get there?
[Because, you know, Time Lords and their plans. This just happens to be a plan for something nice instead.]
