[this is not a happy Donna. Right now she's speaking French. It probably sounds very rough and angry. The flailing hand gestures so aren't helping]

French. That's what I'm speaking, isn't it? French?! I haven't taken French since...since...point is! I don't know any French and I'm speaking French and someone bloody well explain what's happening to me right now!

[sees Ryotarou and makes a :/] Well you can come over. I'm not going to bite you. Can you understand me?

Erm, right, I've got this... [switches to Fa'Dielian] No clue in hell what this is.

[Blinks... then lights up! He comes over and speaks back in Fa'Dielian:] I can speak that!

[beams because, yay, understanding!] You've got this one, too? What is it? It's alien, isn't it?

Mhmm! [Happy to be able to converse. :D] I'm not sure. No one I've been able to speak to knows what it is, yet.

[she's happy to as well!] Right, so I'm stuck with French and some language I don't even know. That's just...barmy. [she laughs at the craziness]

[Ryotarou can't help but laugh a little too.] I think you got lucky, actually. Some people here are speaking... cat.

Cat? How do you speak cat? Meowing?

[Pauses, then he switches to Cat just for you, Donna! He figures he owes it to you after you helped him post-Juliet.] For the most part. There's also growling and hissing sometimes, and I think.. purring, but... [shrugs?]

[sorry Ryotarou but she found that freaking adorable] You're like a big kitten!

[lkfndsln o//o] Is that— [Oh wait, that still in Cat. Switches over to Fa'Dielian!] Is that... a good thing?

[she's hugging him now] It's fine! That's crazy! I love it.

[Another hug?! It seems Ryotarou's standard reaction to random!hugs is meowing, so. dflksnd //// He's happy, though. First person to not really.. make fun of him for it, or isn't in the same boat.]

[giggles a bit but it's clearly because she's happy] Right, sorry. Better speak in that other whatever so I can understand you.

[N-nod. Back in Fa'Dielian:] Good idea... [tilts his head and smiles a little back; that was definitely an interesting reaction to his second language]

[still happy] Have you been able to talk to many people?

Yeah, more than I expected, actually. [little smile] ... Not my friend from home, but we've been working around it.

I can talk to one of my friends but not the Doctors. It figures. But at least we can talk. Always that.

[nods] It's better than nothing, right?

Right! Have you figured out a good way to talk to others?

Ah... besides getting someone to mediate? [pulls out his little doodlepad] This seems work.

You mean like a middleman? [glances at it] That's a good idea. Better than charades. I'm blood awful at charades.

Yeah, like that. [holds it out for Donna to look at if she wants?] It's not always easy getting a point across... but it does seem to be better than charades, at least.

I'll have to try that, then. You can keep your pad, though. I'll find one. I'm not a very good temp if I can't even get a pad of paper and pen.

[takes the pad back with a small shrug] You're a temp?

I'm sort of between jobs right now. But it's been my line of work for years. it's not as bad as it sounds.
