08; I told ya I was trouble [yeah, you know that I'm no good]

[Have a Doctor. He's been, uh, indisposed the last few days on the TARDIS and no force in this universe could have him tell you why. As it is, he's wandering around, poking at some of the items left on the plane.]

Not it. Not it. Blimey, this place is starting to look like a dormitory common room.

[he finally finds a trunk he was looking for and turns it over.]

Right, well, that wasn't so hard.

[Sitting nearby and typing on a flat keyboard that seems to be suspended in midair. She spots the Doctor and taps the side of her glasses' frames. The keyboard vanishes. Misaki makes her way over; she's still wearing her black dress uniform with the four-sun insignia on the shoulders.]

Doctor?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Hello, Misaki! [he grins, apparently in a decent mood] Haven't seen you in a while! Things still looking up for you?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Confused smile] Er. Were they looking down?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

No, no, no! It's just...well, it's been too long. Wasn't sure how you were.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

It has been. I'm well enough, though between Xin and dealing with the UN's demands it's been a bit... hectic, lately.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Well, if life wasn't hectic it probably wouldn't be any fun.

[breath]

Which is certainly how it is in my life, anyway.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Snort] I suppose. I don't think Hei would agree, but then he's after me again to cut back on my hours.

What about you? What've you been up to?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Uh, well, nothing special. Nothing unusual. Just saving the universe, traveling a bit. I went ice skating.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Raised eyebrow] Oh? On some distant ice-planet with an elaborate name that so-and-so decided on after he yelled it when somebody stepped on his toe?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Actually on Earth, in the future. Floating ice rink! It was fun, been too long since I went ice skating.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[laughs] A floating ice rink? That sounds amazing. Where?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Above London, in commemoration of the Frost Fairs in the 17th century. They had artificial snow, atmospheric excitation, and hot chocolate. Though they seemed to think hot chocolate was actually just melted chocolate, so it was a little too thick.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

What year? [snort] I don't think I've been ice skating since we took the girls to Endodan last summer.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

32nd century. Can't remember the exact date...it was sort of a busy afternoon.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Oh? More world saving, more catastrophes averted?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[uh...]

Something like that.

I've missed you, though!

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[raaaaised eyebrow] 'Something like that' from you is 'no' from anyone else. What happened?

[then she laughs a little] I'm flattered. I've been wondering what you were up to.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Oh, this and that.

[waves it off]

Nothing in particular. It's generally an interesting life, just not so much today.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[....so not buying it]

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[expression says: =D?]

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[.....sigh]

In any case you should come around again this weekend. It has been a while--Xin misses you.

Just... no more pet rocks from god-knows-where. Please?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Not me. I'm the other Doctor.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

...I know who you are.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

But I didn't bring him a pet rock.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

...her. Bring her a pet rock, and yes you did.
