[Rose stumbles into the plane and then blinks before looking around a bit surprised, since she wasn't expecting this at all.]


...Right then. Another reality? And with stars. This is really lovely. Though...


[She frowns and then pats down her jacket as if feeling for something.]


Well no teleport jumper with me this time. So, that's a bit worrisome. Unless of course I didn't really jump and this is all just a dream? It wouldn't surprise me, really, especially after the week I've had. It's sort of funny though since...I mean a shop! And then those twins, don't think I could have really thought that up, yeah? Unless I was sloshed somehow, but I haven't really drank in such a long time.


[Her expression is a bit unsure as she unzips her top pocket and pulls out her mobile.]


I know, I'll just call Control and then they'll...Oh lovely dead. No signal. That would just be my luck wouldn't it?

Alright, so if anyone is out there and cares to help a lost soul out it would be appreciated.

Um, hello?

Hello.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Hi.

...And you are?

[lamb_of_gold]

Trouble?

[fireintothesky.livejournal.com]

Um, I'm Henrietta. This is the Astral Plane.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

[This would be a human Doctor, waving nonchalantly.] Hullo. Haven't seen you about on the Plane in a while.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Astral Plane. Well that's fitting. Nice to meet you, Henrietta.

Where are you from?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Oh just a bit.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

[And this would be Rose just staring at him a bit confused. She blinks and then slowly waves back.]

Hi.

...Is that so? Funny, I don't remember being here before.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

. . . [frowns a little] You don't? Really? Well--

Haven't suffered any recent head injuries, have you?

[lamb_of_gold]

I wouldn't think it would bother you, miss Tyler. You've been here---

Oh dear. This again.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

[She shakes her head.]

No...Not really. Sorry.

I'm pretty sure I haven't...So this is-

[She just stares at him and frowns.]

I mean, they've pretty much banned me from field missions for a while.

[Here is a grown woman who may or may not be playing hopskotch. It certainly LOOKS like she's playing hopskotch. Anyway she stops when the blonde asks for some help, since Dorothy Is Good At Helping.]

Don't think your phone'll work here, what with it being space, and all. I mean, it might not be real space, after all, since all the constellations are in the wrong places, and I don't think real outer space has a floor. But it's the sentiment of the thing.

Hello! I'm Dorothy. I'm very good at being lost. Do you need some help?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

How do you know my name?

...So I'm hearing though I think I would have remembered a place like this.

...Again what?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[frowning a little] Everything all right, Rose? If it's another concussion, I'm going to have to tell Jackie.

[fireintothesky.livejournal.com]

I'm from Rome.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

What? Banned? Why would they go and do that? [after a beat, he looks concerned] What happened?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

[And Rose just raises an eyebrow staring at the grown woman playing hopskotch. She's somewhat amused but refrains from laughing.]

...Not real space? Well it could have fooled me. But, yeah. So much for calling home.

Dorothy. Nice to meet you. And yeah, sort of. Like how to get back. Has anyone been able to leave?

[She gestures towards the space and then stares back at the woman.]

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

[She just stares at him and is silent for some seconds.]

I'm not that clumsy, I'll have you know. And there will be no telling my mum. Like she isn't on my case enough. And what are you doing here?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Because last time I might have done something-

[Worried expression masks her features as it's slowly dawning on her...]

You don't remember, do you?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Oh Rome. That's lovely. I always wanted to go there!

[lamb_of_gold]

This may be difficult to believe, but there is another of you who comes here occasionally.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Well sure! You just kinda... step in and out. Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it, 'fore long enough. This place's some kind of machine, I think, or that's what Henry said, anyway. I don't know, never could understand all that technological mumbo-jumbo. My VCR's been blinking twelve o'clock since 1988.

So where's home to you? If you don't mind me asking, of course.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[He's still a bit confused]

Well, I come here sometimes. Walk in the starlight. Or galaxylight. [a long pause] You haven't been here before?

[fireintothesky.livejournal.com]

I love it. Where are you from?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

London, England. 2014.

What year are you from?
