doctor who (d5) tardis

(no subject)

Well...this is odd, indeed. It would appear I've been caught within a temporal loop of some kind, though I cannot find a source. Nor was there any such phenomenon on the planet we'd landed on. I see no possible way for this place to exist, let alone with me inside it. It warrants further investigation.

[disappears off the Astral Plane easily, returning shortly thereafter]

Strange. The Doctor is unable to view this anomaly with me. Nor can Charlotte. It is as though it does not exist outside my own perceptions, but that is impossible. Isn't it?

[makes a face]

Oh, bugger all.

[frowns and stares for a moment, trying to place the aura 'Turlough' is giving off]

...You're not Turlough.

[stares back at him, frowning faintly at his 'Doctor-ness']

You know of him? But no. No, I am not. This is merely a projection of his physical form. You...you feel strangely familiar, but twisted. [frown deepens] I should know you.

Turlough used to travel with me. [stares for a moment, then blinks] Are you...- [cuts himself off and takes a different course of action!] I'm the Doctor.

Travelled with you? But he only ever travelled with myself and the Doctor -- [and there we go, it clicks. smart!TARDIS is smart] ...Doctor?

[blinks] Yes, it's me. You're...TARDIS?

[she may or may not have squeed fangirlishly, but if she did, she'll deny it. here, have a Grey Lady, Doctor] I am! But...how are you here, and in that body? It is not one I recognise.

[grins and laughs] Brilliant! This hasn't happened since my...eighth. And, well. This is my...tenth body. Dunno how I'm here but this proves my theory, I think.

I am with your Eighth now, Doctor. We've been travelling the divergent universe together with his...woman...Charlotte. But you're to your Tenth all ready? A pity, that. Do tell me of your theory, though?

Ahh, that makes sense. You seemed more fond of this back then. [sort of bemused smile, 'cause he's all happy and thus isn't mad at the little jab] Still not a fan of Charley, eh? I told her to stop leaving her pants around, you know. But! Yes, tenth. For a few years now, actually. But my theory is that this spot is a dimensional nexus point.

I found a pair of her knickers stuffed down the drain in the washroom the other day. She'd apparently decided to 'fix' a leak. I do hope she stops that sometime soon or I'll be forced into drastic measures. But a dimensional nexus point? But how can that be possible? Unless you're all inside the divergent universe with me, Doctor?

[Watches the young man complain]

Oooh, did she? That's an odd way to fix a leak. [scratches his head] Well, no. I don't think I am. But this places has ties to dozens of planets and alternate universes.

I find she enjoys...bending the truth, at times. Why you put up with her is any guess. But not matter. [ponders this] That still doesn't explain the cause of a nexus point, Doctor. After we entered the divergent universe, the tear was repaired. There should be no available point for universes to co-exist.

[watches the young man watch her complain]

[wtf, Minato is great at starting these staring contests.]

[she's a ship, she's perfected the art of sitting around watching other people. it's about all she can do, really]

[just laughs a bit] True but eventually we do make it out of that universe so maybe that explains it? I dunno, hard to say. This place doesn't make much sense even by our standards. And Charley...ends up with my Sixth, actually. Wibbly wobbly... [waves hand] Anyway! [grins] How are you, old girl? Not often I get a conversation like this, is it?

[Well seeing as Minato was in two staring contests the last time he threaded, and I kind of want to DO STUFF WITH HIM, I will force him to use words.]

Hello.

[There :|]

She does? Odd that I don't remember her from that time, then. Though she did always seem strangely familiar...No matter. [grins back at him] I've been better, Doctor, but if you are the future self of my Doctor, then you should know. These are conversations we should have more often, though, I agree. The real question, however, is how are you? You know of my past, but I know nothing of our future. How did we return home, when the Time Lords acknowledged your self-exile?

[poor Minato, being forced into labour. SLAVE DRIVER]

I had thought for a moment you were mute.

[/facepalm]

[he tilts his head slightly, peering at the boy who isn't a boy through narrowed eyes]

You're different.

I'm not.

Ahh, well. It was all in Rassilon's plan, of course. [waves his hand] Has to have his name on everything, doesn't he? We were allowed back because the anti-time was purged. I'm...all right. Well! We're doing all right. Just refueled you about, oooh, eighteen months ago. Eighteen months and a year that didn't happen.

[and just blinks] Refueling? What do you mean? My power source is infinite, Doctor, you know that.

That's fairly obvious, now.
