[Two people appear on the plane together, standing perfectly side by side. One, a woman, with blonde hair and perfectly blue clothes, the other a man in a deep gray suit. Both survey their surroundings.]

Another twist they forgot to mention.

Perhaps they simply didn't have that information.

Perhaps. Or perhaps it wasn't pertinent enough to share with us.

[her eyes go 70's sci-fi Glowing Blue] I would think this sort of place would be very pertinent. {Steel?}

It wouldn't be the first time they withheld information. {Sapphire?}

{Steel, I can't sense what year it is here.}

{Try harder, Sapphire. There must be something.}

{There isn't. There's no year, no day, no season. There's nothing, no sort of calendar, just...} Just time. There is time here.

But has it broken through?

No. It's strange, but it's not dangerous. Not yet. [a pause] Steel, there are... different times here, somehow. Localised points of dates.

Can you get information on those points?

There is... [points in one direction] 1973, that way. And.... [points another way] 2006. And... and I can't... I don't know what year that one is. [points again]

No definite time on that one?

No... There is a definite point. I can't name it. There's something else, here...

Can you sense it at all, Sapphire? [moves closer to her, speaking near her ear now] It might be important.

It's... it's something... I don't know, Steel.

But the points in time are existing independently? So they aren't directly endangering time.

No, there's no direct danger. I can't... They're not independent. They interact.

Time travellers again?

Some of them, yes. Some of them, no.

Is there anything else you can sense?

The points are changing. The... people appear to be moving from this place to another, and others arrive on it. They seem to be able to move back and forth freely. [glowy eyes: off]

I haven't heard of a place like this before. But if there's nothing wrong with it, then it's none of our concern for the time being.

Steel, aren't you curious?

Do you think there's something else here?

Yes.

Then I suppose we may as well have a look around. Maybe we'll run into one of those points you sensed.

[The pair finally give up for the moment, Sapphire smiling and Steel looking grumpier than usual, as they take seats at the bar to relax for now]



((ooc: Double intro post after forever! Beware of thread-hopping, since these two are rather joined together. The {} brackets are telepathy, by the way, which any telepaths in the area can pick up on for now. And Sapphire gets this while Steel gets this colour, mkay? Have at it, kids!))

[The cat who's been sitting on the bar for the duration of their conversation sneezes, then speaks.] You two broadcast on all frequencies.

[contract_star]

[Staring at them from a distance for awhile.] You can sense time?

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

[Elements canonly like animals about as much as humans! So Sapphire crouches down by the kitty - Time forbid that Steel should INTERACT with things - and smiles at her pleasantly]

Hello. It's very nice to meet you. My name is Sapphire. May I have your name?

{I believe the cat is a telepath, Steel. And if she is, I imagine we'll be proved correct shortly.}

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

[look, it's her pleasant smile! She does that a lot]

Can you? Oh, but that's rude of me; I don't think we've been introduced.

My name is Sapphire.

[got-the-stones.livejournal.com]

...You guys like to hear yourself talk, don't you?

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

I'm Cy for synchronized. Is now shortly enough?

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

Oh, Steel doesn't like talking very much at all. I always have to remind him that his vocal cords will atrophy from disuse if he doesn't.

[elementsteel.livejournal.com]

[Steel will actually hover in for the cat here, sup?]

That's answer enough. You mentioned frequencies. Can you hear all of them?

[the Brigadier stares blankly, having overheard all of that. he is currently attempting to figure out if the lot are Time Lords like the Doctor or just weird people with a ... healthy interest in Time]

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

[people! Sapphire loves people! It's her job to love people]

Hello! It's a pleasure to meet you, Brigadier.

[for the record, that wasn't mad-leet infomodding; that was looking at his clothing]

[elementsteel.livejournal.com]

{Perhaps we should talk like this while here}

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

{Of course, Steel. We've been careless already. But Steel? We should be cautious of others accessing this link.}

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

[oh my god, someone actually knows military rank (seeing as he has all the indicative pins and crap on his outfit to show he's a Brigadier) so it's cool, and the Brig is generally sort of relaxed-ish]

Er, hello. New here, I take it? Well, gathering from your conversation, that is.

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

I'm the full satellite package.

[elementsteel.livejournal.com]

{Yes, that was unexpected. Keep this as secure as you can.}

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

{Yes, Steel.}

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

Yes, we've only just arrived. Does this sort of arrival often happen?

Oh, forgive me. [holds out her hand to him] I'm Sapphire, and my companion is Steel. [She always has to introduce him to people]

[elementsteel.livejournal.com]

[a bit surprised] You receive transmissions from satellites?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

Every so often.

[he shakes her hand] Lethbridge-Stewart. Pleasure to meet you, Miss Sapphire, Mr. Steel.

[Rose Tyler has just had an appendectomy. And she broke her ankle. But she doesn't seem to notice, because she's being, well, herself]

You two seem a bit Stepford, don't you?

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

Simply "Sapphire" is fine, Brigadier.

Have you been here long, then? I'm sorry, but we don't really know where this is.

[elementsteel.livejournal.com]

[Steel gives a nod since he was addressed] Thank you for anything you can tell us. [he's learning manners!]

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

[Sapphire sends him a smile of approval]

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

I receive all sorts of things.

More newcomers?
