A Doctor walks into a bar [Open]

[madman_inabox]

Eleven saw Clara's name on the rooming list during the holiday party, and he found it odd that he hadn't seen her as of yet. Maybe she was spending time with one of the other hims, and he planned on ignoring those feelings of jealousy that swelled up in his stomach thinking about that.

So, since everyone winds up in Ten Forward at some point or other, that's where the Doctor planned on spending the foreseeable future. Eventually, Clara would appear, or Amy, or maybe someone else that he hadn't talked to just yet.

Eleven sat at a table near the window eating his favorite food, fish fingers and custard, something he assumed someone would question him on. Maybe. Eventually.

"Is that... fish fingers?"

Even after so much time spent on Earth trying to learn the customs and cultures of the people around him, and even more time spent here trying to learn so many more of them, Jonas still found things that surprised him. And food had always been a fascination for him.

He'd never have been able to find the time to try everything, but that hadn't stopped him from doing what he could.

"Fish fingers and ..." He approached a little closer, peering at the bowl. "And custard!"

"Yes!" Eleven grinned broadly, "That's correct. Fish Fingers and Custard. Sweet and Savory all at once."

At least someone seemed excited by his meal. He'll count that as a win.

"I finally got that machine over there to make it properly."

Jonas, it had to be said, was almost always prepared to be excited by a new combination of foods that he hadn't seen before, and even his extensive exploration of Earth foods had never brought him to this particular combination.

Fish sticks, yes. Custard, definitely. Both could be found in the SCG's commissary. Never the two of them together, though.

"That is a genius idea. Is it common where you're from? I've never seen anyone eat them together, but I still have a lot of Earth foods to try."

This one was definitely going on his list.
