A/N: A drabble for kensieg on her birthday. I hope it was a happy one.

"Doctor, when's your birthday?"

"Told you before, Rose, I don't--" Her reproachful eyes pierce his hearts. "Fifeenth Trekhet."

"When?"

"Alien, me -- remember? Eleventh month of the year on my planet."

"Oooh!" She jabs at the newspaper. "That makes you a Scorpio!"

"Astrology? That rubbish is straight out of the Middle Ages! Thought you had more sense."

"'Scorpios are determined, forceful individuals." she reads. "'They thirst for knowledge, but are secretive, and need to be in control...'"

"That fits," Jack says, grinning.

"'Their intense, magnetic sensuality makes them irresistible--'"

"'Course, primitive superstitions often have a core of truth in 'em..."

Aww. Want a clue? Think "Doctor Who". First season Rose called him gay, he's a lord and he was on his ninth body.
Childish, huh? I swear, I did try to resist. I just failed.

The reason I asked you is because your story was strongly about him - otherwise I wouldn't have thought it at all important.

First season Rose called him gay

When did she do that? In "The Doctor Dances" she implied that he might be asexual, but that's rather different.

Rose was only joking with him. I think it was the episode with the pig and the spaceship crashing into the Big Ben - Just before it crashed, while they were on a roof, I think, talking about the age gap between them. Anyways, My username is more along the lines of the first thing I came up with.
