Fuschia?

Well, that wasn't the primary color they had hoped for. Pepper sighed atop the ladder and fastened another corner with the staple gun. She was trying to go as fast as she could, but with how she had to keep moving the ladder every few staples, it was going slower than she'd hoped.

She'd seen what Wensley had prepared, though. It was gorgeous and likely delicious enough for everyone to end up wishing that he'd made another. He'd had to smack her hand away from it to keep her from trying any. Old habits died harder for Them.

She looked down at Wensley, grumbling, "Is this really all we could come up with? Looks like the decorations for that Princess Bash you had to babysit for at the Dawson's a few years back." Okay, it wasn't that bad. They'd managed a little blue and green in certain places. And it was decidedly lacking in screaming ten-year-olds in cheap lipstick and rouge. But, really.

She leaned back on the ladder, glancing out to where John and Azirphale (she was so proud of herself for finally figuring out how to pronounce his name right) stood. "How much time do you think we have out there?" she shout-whispered to them. "Roughly?"

Uriel was not perhaps an expert in social relationships, but she did know a few things. And now, she knew the Doctor was not happy. "I'm sorry I'm so stupid," she said apologetically. "I just haven't been on Earth very much."

"You're not stupid," the Doctor said hurrdiely, "you just don't know much about humans. Well, human culture, really. Human films and music."

He noticed he was well on the way to babbling and stopped. He pursed his lips thoughtfully and ate a few more jelly babies. "Maybe I can show you, if you want," he said. "We can arrange it to be a group thing. Everyone at the Manor. I'll take you in the TARDIS to see films and plays, and then everyone will be happy."

He stopped. He blinked. He smiled widely.

"Now there's an idea worth investigating!"
