011 - And three good towers on Reidswire fells/he left them all on fire.

[Aniki staggers onto the plane, dropping, rolling, and narrowly avoiding the series of flaming debris that comes with her. Beams and bits of furniture smash to the ground, either blazing brighter for a few moments as they explode or bouncing and skittering across the plane in crackles of sparks.

When she staggers to her feet she winces and clutches her arm.]

Mother, Maid, and Crone. One moment I'm here and the next I pop away home and the sarden building is on fire! Any lad or lass about who cares to explain what just happened?

Well, topical adhesive. [she pulls out a small tube of it] It's specially made for medical use. It'll hold the wound together while it heals, then dissolve over time.

[Still eyeballing it warily.] I might just wait for a healing at home, lass.

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

If you want. [chuckles] I'm still not used to the thought of someone being healed by magic.

[Winces.] If you had something 'sides a belt to slow the bleeding up for a bit, though, I wouldn't object.

[she pulls something more tourniquet-y out of the bag and wraps that around Aniki's arm, taking her belt back, then starts bandaging up the wound] Good, 'cos I do sort of need that to keep my pants from falling down.

[anjelsword.livejournal.com]

[That startles a laugh out of her.]

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

[grins at her as she wraps the gauze around her arm] Hey, I don't just wear belts to look good. Well, sometimes I do, but not when I'm at work.

[anjelsword.livejournal.com]

What is work, precisely? Don't think I ever got a clear answer on that. Or asked a clear question on it, for that matter.

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

[wry grin] The simple explanation is that I'm a doctor. The complicated one is, well, complicated.

[anjelsword.livejournal.com]

I'm used to complicated by now.

I basically save the world from alien invasions - well, on the glamourous days. On normal days, I investigate things that don't really exist and spend loads of time cutting weird creatures up.

[anjelsword.livejournal.com]

Aliens, is it? Seems a lot of folks about this place deal with them.

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

Yeah - I work with Jack, actually, and Ianto. Well, not this Ianto, the one in my world.

[anjelsword.livejournal.com]

So odd to think of there being another of me somewhere out there.

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

[wrinkles her nose] Donna said she met another version of me. So did the Brigadier. And I expect a couple of the other Doctors have, too. It's creepy, that's what it is.

[anjelsword.livejournal.com]

[Dry chuckle.] Leastwise we're not in the Doctor's situation, having half a dozen of him all trotting around in one place.

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

[headshake] I haven't the foggiest idea how to tell them all apart! At least they all know me, though.

'A lad or lass is the life they've lived'. They're different enough, when you look close.
