[Ianto appears on the Plane with some CCTV monitoring equipment showing what looks like it should be Roald Dahl Plass... only where the Millennium Centre usually stands there seems to a large skyscraper instead.]

Anyone want to tell me why the Empire State Building seems to have replaced the Millennium Centre?

[comes up behind Ianto, craning her neck to look at the CCTV] Well, that's just weird.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Switching to a few times to see if anything changes... which it doesn't.] Definitely.

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

[wrinkling her nose] I like the Millennium Centre better than the Empire State Building. More Welsh, fewer Daleks.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I think we had something about that in the archives... with or without the Daleks I think I prefer the Millennium Centre.

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the Empire State Building's a little pretentious for Cardiff.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

Doesn't look as good either.

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

Definitely not. It interferes with the natural aesthetics of the skyline. [frown] So you've no idea how it ended up here?

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I could make a guess, but I'd rather I was wrong...

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

Oh? [curious look]

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

Merging. [Zooming in slightly with one of the closer cameras.] It looks like it's been built within the past few years from this, so I've probably merged slightly with Firo.

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

Uh, what? [oh look nobody's told her about merging]

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Oh, ryt. Martha's not been on the Plane that long.] ...no-one's told you about merging yet?

[marthajonesmd.livejournal.com]

[headshake] No, it hasn't come up yet. [snort] Usually nobody tells you about things till they're staring you in the face.

That weird building with all the gibberish scribbled on it is yours?!

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

It's not gibberish, it's Welsh.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

Gibberish. Why the hell did they take the Empire State Building? I've only been up in it twice!

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

That's usually the way... merging is what happens when you start getting close to someone on the Plane. Basically your realities start getting mixed up until eventually your realities become the same place.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I'm not any happier about it. I liked the Millennium Centre a lot better.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

You would.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

Look; if I knew how to switch them back I'd be more than happy to.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Peering over his shoulder.]

Lots of merger effects being felt lately.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

Well. There's always the Twins.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

At least this one isn't quite as bad as the others have been...

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

You aren't thinking of making a deal with them?

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

That or pounding one out of them. [Yes, he loves his pretentious, garish Empire State Building.]
