[seated in an ornate armchair, speaking in fluent, articulate, and rather pleasant-to-the-ears Gallifreyan]
It's actually a bit disgusting, hearing you lot speak Gallifreyan so primitively. Like chanting off - no, that metaphor's incomprehensible without a background in high mathematics. Fine. Like writing Calculus and finding everyone else doing basic algebra.
[then he changes to Russian - less articulate, of course, but he's comfortable with the language]
This one, though, this one's a bit ironic. Look at me, the Master, the deathless, blathering on in Russian. Haven't been in ages, should probably go back and put a few more legends into the locals.
[sips from his wine, and slips back into Gallifreyan]
At least the people of the city still understand me.

I could say I want to chain you up and slowly shred your skin and you'd have no idea. Fun.
[stands and holds out the wine glass to her, an offering]
Japanese
You're the sort to enjoy the benefits of others not understanding you. I'd bet my sword on it. [She takes a sip.] Truth is my dear mad master, so'm I.
Gallifreyan
And ooh, Japanese. I blew up Japan, did you know that? For kicks, really. The whole thing - kaboom! [makes the exlode-y gesture with his hands]

Re: German
Well aren't you bold, my young lady?
[puts a hand on each arm of the chair]
Very bold, in German, no less.

Go on, shove over, it's a large enough armchair.
[is now nudging Aniki over in the universal signal for 'shove over, I wanna sit']
Re: Gallifreyan
Gallifreyan
Not quite sure what we can talk about, and conversation is really the substance of things... actions, well, not so important. I suppose we could just pretend to have a conversation. Enjoy the sound of each other's voices. It could be considered poetic.

[places his hands to her temples and raises his eyebrow in request of permission - it's easier when they let you in]
German
Gallifreyan
You won't understand me fully yet; experiments with the Doctor indicate you won't ever fully understand me, but you should start to get the gist of what I'm saying as I go in further.
How is it now?
German
Gallifreyan
I believe this would be your first, then.
[he settles in fairly far in, enough that she should understand most of things]
How's this?
