Living in the TARDIS isn't all it's cracked up to be. Everyone there is busy a lot, it seems, and there's only so many questions Jamie can ask before he finds himself shooed away or set to doing something to help. He doesn't mind that once in awhile, but there's only so much 'helping' he can do, and only so many places they'll let him go in the TARDIS alone.

Today he's not in the mood to sit around there and do nothing, so as soon as the opportunity presents itself, he takes off, wandering through the hangar a bit and looking at all the strange ships before eventually making his way through to the other parts of the ship just to try and find something to do.

He's got a few things with him to keep him company, though. One is a small sack that he's put some important things in - some snacks, a nice rock from his room, and the morphers. They're too big for his wrists now, and he doesn't remember what they are any more, just that it's important he has them with him. Since his super sporran is with his adult clothing, the bag is the only other reasonable place for them to be. The other item he has with him in one of those horseless carriages he's been told about, a wee one he found somewhere and decided to keep. He likes the way the wheels spin, and it moves pretty nicely even without the horses - or one of those engine-things. That toy he's been keeping out so he can play with it when the mood takes him. Of course, sometimes the mood takes him so he sends it careening down one of Stacy's hallways, but that shouldn't be a problem, should it?

"Ah, I see! Almost a man, then," Hoshi replied, a grin on her face.

Even though she was agreeing with him, she was giggling a little bit.

Although, the blue box in the hangar... Wasn't that the TARDIS? She didn't know anything else that was considered a 'blue box' on Stacy. "All right! I can do that as soon as we're done here."

There's not too much he actually wants to do here, other than take a walk around it - it's not as though the owner's around to ask if he could take a look inside.

Truthfully, if Goliath was here at the moment? Jamie wouldn't remember him - and it would wind up being a 'staring at the beastie' sort of situation. So perhaps it's for the best.

However, the young Scot does walk up to the side of the castle, and runs a hand over a few of the rough stones on its exterior. He turns to look back at Hoshi, smiling again. "Would ye not say it's a grand place?"

Hoshi followed Jamie around the outside of the castle, giving him a smile as she watched him run his hand over the stones, deciding to do it herself just to feel what it was like herself.

"It's beautiful. There's not many castles back where I'm from, so to see something like this is really quite something. Thank you for inviting me here," she answered, giving him a soft smile. Admittedly, she was having fun just spending time with him here.

"Aye, well, there's more back where I come from, but I like this one."

He starts to say 'Thank you', but it's interrupted by another yawn. He's definitely feeling sleepy now. This one he can't quite hide from her as well as he thinks he hid the other one, though, and he looks at her apologetically.

"Sorry."

"I'd have to see them someday."

Hoshi noticed the yawn and merely shook her head, a simple smile crossing her lips. "It's all right. Did you want to take me up on my offer of a piggyback ride now so that you could take a catnap on the way to the blue box?"

Jamie wants to say no, to protest he can walk, but maybe, just this once, it'd be okay. He is rather tired, after all.

"I'll not be too heavy for ye?"

"Not at all. I'm a very strong person," reassured Hoshi as she lowered herself down for Jamie to get on her back.

"It'll be okay for me. Go ahead."

"Aye, all right." Once Hoshi's crouched down, he does climb up on her back, even though a part of him feels a wee bit silly in the process. But the chances of anyone else seeing him is pretty small at this time of day.

And, if they do and actually mention it...well, he'll just have to sort them then, won't he? Satisfied that he'll be able to defend himself against any teasing, he leans his chin on Hoshi's shoulder, ready to go when she is.

Hoshi gave a nod to Jamie and then hooked her arms around his legs to hold him to her securely. Once she's assured that he won't fall off, she got up and then made her walk over to where she knew where the TARDIS was.

Along the way, she hummed a soft tune to hopefully either get Jamie to sleep on the way there. "Say, what's the blue box like?" she asked, deciding to play with this a little bit.

It's a bonny tune, and Jamie closes his eyes - the better to listen to it with. But the question wakes him back up. Well, a little anyway.

"It's very big," comes a slightly sleepy sounding reply. "Ye could go for days in there and not find your way out. And there's this one room that's all bubbles."

"Bubbles..." Hoshi repeated, thinking of that being the main room of the TARDIS. The Doctor was definitely right in saying that it was bigger on the inside than it looked like on the outside. She gave Jamie a little affirmative nod before continuing her humming.

This one sounded like a lullaby, one her mother sang to her when she was a little girl. It always did the trick to get her to sleep.

He meant the zero room, but if asked, he'd suppose the things on the wall in the console room could be bubbles of a sort.

Of course, that would have to mean that Jamie was awake to hear them. The lullaby is doing exactly what it is supposed to do. The little Scot's eyes start drifting closed again, and after a last ditch effort to keep them open, he gives up and lets himself drift off to sleep.
