Donna frowned, this was turning out to not be her day. First, she was stuck dressed like a wench, then they'd landed in ten feet of mud, now the TARDIS seemed to be messing with her; moving the ladies' where she couldn't find it.
About the third try, Donna stumbled upon a particular room she hadn't seen before. The walls were the same, but it was covered from floor to ceiling in... what even was all this? Stepping inside, Donna curiously began to sift through the various junk, amazed at all this... stuff. Where had he gotten a recorder? Or a tattered cape? Or... wait! Was that a piece of celery? Throwing the wilted thing down, Donna was this close to resuming her quest for the loo when an all too familiar voice called her.
"Donna! There you are! Got something to show you, I think you'll-"
"Save it , sunshine." Donna cut him off. " What is all this? Your rubbish room? Ever thought about cleaning this out?"
"Oh it's been ages since I've been in here!" The Doctor said fondly, peering around the room. " Bit of a mess, but full of a lot of memories." He picked up a purple pill-box hat, then a cat badge.
"So it's organized chaos? Had a mate, Derek , once who was like that. Always in the head teacher's office for losing something."
Putting the badge down, the Doctor nodded.

Clara was apparently mad at him again. When she suggested he take a bit to cool off , he found it again- the junk room. When was the last time he'd been in here? It got more disorganized, but he liked it.
