YES I'M A BIT LATE HUSH

[have a battered, messy Doctor! he's without his coat and gloves, leaving him in a blood-stained white silk shirt and torn trousers; he's stiff and sore and breathing heavily; he's clutching a sonic blaster in one hand]

Every planet we've been to has been horrific.

[the dashing traveller, exposed and exhausted, laments the tragic state of the universe he longs to better]

So far, we've been trapped in a supposedly abandoned sanatorium - [he grimly raises his slender yet toned arm, mottled with needle marks] Oh, do stop it. Was it really necessary to follow me here?

[you should never split up, you know; I wonder how your handsome young apprentice is faring]

He's not my - [deep breath]

In our last escapade, my friend was infected. With what, I'm not certain, I've never seen its like before.

[a great scientist, he's frustrated with the perilous mystery that has already taken so many lives]

I was wondering if anyone has experienced something similar, and if you managed to stop it. It may not last past this experiment - but then it might.

[troubled by tumultuous emotions, and fearing futility, our anxious hero begins to pace]

I am not anxious. I am concerned.

[smiles at her presence despite himself, before slipping his hand into his pocket]

Someone - something, rather - seems to be narrating my life. It's distinctly annoying.

[as he retrieves the fragile vial he fears being just as vulnerable in front of a woman he loves]

...Oh, really, that's just trite.

[ooc; See what I mean? I ONLY JUST GOT BACK TO THIS but hi Ash!]

Narrating? To what purpose? For what reason is it trite?

((THAT IS PERFECTLY FINE))

I've no idea. I feel as though I've been plunged into - have you seen any bad horror movies?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Bad horror movies? I do not believe so. What constitutes such a thing?

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

Ah. Well. [vague gesture] Rampant clichés, hackneyed plots, daft protagonists, cheap monsters. You'll get them in most places that have developed that sort of entertainment.

We've been running into all of them.

And are they causing you pain? [tilts her head] Is that to whom you speak? Is it common to address a horror movie?
