Constellation 02

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[Arthur is on the Plane, sitting at his desk. There are papers strewn all over it's surface, most filled to the brim with scribbles of equations and notes. His pocket watch sits on one side of the desk, opened and facing upwards so that he can glance at the time more conveniently. On the other end, at the far right corner, is a cup of tea. It sits intact, and has long gone cold.

He looks a little worse-for-wear, a bit more disheveled than usual; clothes rumbled, his hair uncombed, and eyes with a touch of weariness to them. Arthur stifles a yawn, then sets back to work]

I'm not, and it doesn't really affect you either way....

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Of course it affects me.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

How?

[just flashes a grin in response, then changes the topic]

So, have you spoken to the Doctor yet? How many of the Doctors have you seen?

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

Oh, just one. But I did run into someone else that looks like me....

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Oh, that crazy wizard?

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[frowns] Wizard....I'm still not willing to buy into magic being a reality, different worlds or not.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Any sufficiently advanced science is indistinguishable from magic.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

This is different. He calls it and believes it to be magic. Actually seems rather offended that I won't take his word for it.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you would be if people were so insistent in disbelieving in your science and your God.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

It's not- [Except Arthur realizes that it is the same. He looks ashamed, sighing softly under his breath] I see your point...

And look, you've learned a little bit more about relativity.
