[Adric appears on the Plane, frowning in confusion as he takes in his surroundings. Those who know him may notice he's sans his usual badge for mathematical excellence.] This can’t be right. From what the Doctor’s said Tegan’s time line just doesn’t have the technology for this sort of thing. I suppose he must’ve got the coordinates wrong again. Tegan won’t be very happy.

...I should really try and find the way out, before the others start to wonder where I am. I can’t see a door, but there must be one somewhere nearby. I haven’t even moved since I arrived, so it would be illogical for there not to be. Then again, this whole place seems pretty illogical. This can’t possibly be actual space, but the constellations look so real.

Oh, Doctor... I do wish you’d realised this wasn’t Heathrow before now. Who knows how long it might take me to find a way out.

Hullo, stranger.

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

...hello.

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

You're Daddy's boy.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[considers the child carefully]

Hello. You're new, of course.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

...child?

[hello, Adric! you have the dubious honour of being one of the only people the TARDIS openly loves! so she's going to attack you now]

It has been too long, child.

[freezes and sort of gapes for a moment---he should be used to this sort of thing, but he isn't]

Adric?

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

[for a moment, the only sound is a faint gloop as something drips off the Doctor's leather jacket]

Adric!

[lamb_of_gold]

The only way out is through your own will.

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

[...what?] No I'm not.

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

Just passing through, really. I don't suppose you'd mind telling me the way out?

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

[Ack. Being attacked by someone he doesn't recognise wasn't what he was expecting. This would be Adric trying to pull away from her.]

I'm not a child. Look; I don't even know you. I think you must have mistook me for someone else.

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

[Slightly cautious, because he doesn't recognise him.]

Yes?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

You do not recognise me? [oh, that hurts, Adric. that hurts so much] It ... it is no matter. I know who you are, child. You are Adric. You are mine. And it has been so very long since I have seen you.

[He stares for a few minutes before moving forward to hug him]

Adric! You're here! I...well, no, I should have... But you're here! [why yes, he's happy] Tegan! Tegan's still with you! Oh, that's...brilliant. You're brilliant.

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

...you know me too?

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

Like block transfer?

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

[Adric doesn't pull away from him, but he does tense slightly, not quite sure what to make of it.] ...I could fetch her if I knew how to get out of here.

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

[Sorry, TARDIS. He's used to you being a blue box. :|] Yours? I... I'm not quite sure I understand.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

[that's okay, she gets that a lot] I suppose you would not. But you are mine, child. You always have been, since the Doctor brought you to me. I am ... happy to see you again.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[lets go of him after a second] Oh, no, well. I meant that- ah, never mind. Where... [excuse him, he has a lot on his mind right now] Erm, how are things, Adric?

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

Oh. Well, I don't think I've got to that point yet. I'm still travelling with him, you see.

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

Fine, thank you. Now, look; I know you probably think I should, but I really don't know who are.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

[blinks] If you are with him, you are with me. Do you not yet realise who I am?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Oh! Right, you wouldn't. I mean, well, a few regenerations between...anyway! It's me! The Doctor. If you're with Tegan, at least you know about regenerations and all that.

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

Well, you aren't Nyssa or Tegan. Other than the Doctor we're the only ones on the TARDIS.
