[ Her sudden appearance on the Astral Plane did not even bring about a startled expression on her face. In her hands there is book, her gaze lingering about with only mild curiosity gracing her features. There was a faint snap of the book closing in her hands and cradled in the crook of her arm.

She regards everything around her in a silent manner. There is a twitch of what could be a very faint smile on her lips but it's hard to tell. Either way Romana only sighs softly, tucking strands of blond behind her ear. ]

A meeting is to be held in just two hours time and yet it would seem that my own study has decided to take a temporary leave of absence.

[ A small, wry smile can be seen for just the briefest of moments. ]

Perhaps this is a matter to be discussed with Esitella and Joh-hin. Certainly they would find this to be quite intriguing.

Granted, that is once I can speak with them once more when I can return in due time.

[ There is no worry, nor does she appear to be in a hurry to leave. In fact she is entertained by this whole matter - goodness knows she was not looking forward to returning only to attend a council meeting right away. ]

It's not that difficult to get back, actually. You just have to... think it? Except you don't really think it, you just do it.

Ah, I see. Temporal holographic imagery on another dimensional plane I take it.

[didorothy]

[frowns and rubs his head] Shouldn't try to understand words with that many syllables when I'm this knackered. It's... probably another dimensional plane? It's called the Astral Plane. It's not holographic, I'm pretty sure.

[followstime.livejournal.com]

I'll try to use words with fewer syllabes then. [a wry smile tugging at her lips, looking around again] Hmm, the Astral Plane. It would seem to be rather fitting.

[didorothy]

The standard summary of -- wait, sorry. I'm Sam Tyler. [holds his hand out] Good to meet you.

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[he holds his hand behind his back, leaning forward just slightly with a piercing gaze]

I suppose I should have expected to meet another Time Lord.

[followstime.livejournal.com]

[turned to match a face with the voice, her expression quiet as she studies him]

... [tone unsure] Doctor?

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[his brow furrows, voice lowering]

We've met?

[followstime.livejournal.com]

[a hand to her front, an eyebrow arching curiously]

It's... me, Doctor. Romana.

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[he straightens completely, eyes widening slightly; they display on the surprise, none of the wariness]

You have, then.

[theguv.livejournal.com]

[eyes her up and down, not really bothering with any pretense] Hello there, miss. Might you be needing some assitance?

[followstime.livejournal.com]

[only regarding the other with a polite smile, whether oblivious to the look over or ignoring it entirely is another story] And hello to you, sir. I believe I am beginning to understand this place a bit.

[theguv.livejournal.com]

Really now? Well, if you ever find yourself in need of help, I'd be happy to...lend a hand, miss.

[followstime.livejournal.com]

That is rather kind of you to offer. And you are... ?

[demnify.livejournal.com]

Lovely.

[followstime.livejournal.com]

Hmm?

[demnify.livejournal.com]

Just an observation how members of our race are slowly becoming more frequent in this place.

[followstime.livejournal.com]

And just how many other Gallifreyans are here?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

...Romana! You...you... [blinks] You have a new outfit. I have to say, the Presidential headpiece was a bit strange on you. [and now a bear hug]

[followstime.livejournal.com]

-- Doctor? [having just long enough to look down at herself wearing one of the several adviser outfits Esitella had arranged to be made for her] Granted, it's certainly something I would not have originally picked for myself to we- [only to find herself cut off the patented bear hug] !!

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Really? It looks like something you'd pick. [releases her but still holding her shoulders] You're all right? You...well, you know. I didn't think... [still beaming]

[followstime.livejournal.com]

The ribbon frills I could go without. [but to discuss the fashionable attire of her role was minuscule compared to this, her smile warm as she rested a hand over one of his] I'm perfectly fine, Doctor. By chance I had manage survive it... For a few years now I have been living on Eppesta.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I am beginning to suspect that all the other Time Lords are hiding out and laughing as the Doctor whines over their lack of existence. Good to see you again, Lady President.

[followstime.livejournal.com]

I am sure if the others hear of this then perhaps they will make themselves known. The universe is a vast place - who knows where they could be. And a pleasure, I'm sure, Master.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Does it really matter? Short of the CIA, they hardly affected anything. [glances over her] Eppesta, then? Or 29nd century Erine, but I'd hope you have better taste than that.
