"What in all of the worlds is the matter with these people," River wondered. Idly, she picked up a bubble wand from a pail that rested on a nearby stand, and blew bubbles through it, sending more such iridescent globes into an air that was more than filled already with them. "I've never seen such a thing."
The inhabitants of the main city of Habva Tiil were behaving...somewhat oddly, to say the very least. Couples, trios, and a few larger groups were treating each other in the sort of ways that were usually only seen in rather risqué films.
"Oh, damn it," the Doctor muttered, staring at the bubbles overhead, an expression forming on his face that meant that realization was dawning--and a none too pleasant dawning it was, at that. He dug out the sonic, giving the bubbles a thorough scan as they drifted by. "I was afraid of that. River, don't blow any more bubbles!"
She gazed at him, no less confused than she'd been a moment ago. "Why shouldn't I? They're only soap bubbles, aren't they?"
"That's exactly what they're not, though soap and water are still the base. The soap and water in question, though, have been laced with a potent aphrodisiac. Furthermore, there's one rather enormous and important detail that I'd forgotten about Habva Tiil. Around the time of this world's winter solstice, the locals decide to keep warm by timing their mating season to coincide with it."
"And we're standing in the middle of an orgy?"
He nodded, doing his best to avert his gaze from the madness that was going on all around them. "I'm afraid so. Whatever you do, do not blow any more..."
Smiling coyly, River blew a string of bubbles right in the Doctor's direction.
"Bubbles," he sighed.
