001.

[Jenny appears on the plane. She's confused for a moment, and her face reflects it. But the confusion quickly melts away, replaced by a happy look. A very happy look. Jenny is beaming.]

Oh, this is just brilliant. It was a shop, and now it's not! Now it's -

[She trails off and looks around, trying to orient herself. After all, Jenny has studied countless star charts. It shouldn't be so hard to figure out where she is. Then again, normally one doesn't just wander around in space, completely comfortable. At least she thinks one doesn't. Does one?]

That's odd. None of the stars match up. I'm pretty sure that's... yes, the Medusa Cascade, but it shouldn't be next to Tau Ceti Prime, should it? And there's the Sol System! I wonder if Dad's there! I bet he is.

[Jenny reaches out, as though she could touch the stars themselves, but when she hits only emptiness her arm falls to her side. She starts to retrace her steps that day, starting from the strange dream of the morning to the odd sense of wrongness that's been coloring her every move. And then that odd shop, which neither Gr'Rit'A or Joseph had seen, the odd shop that led her here. Suddenly Jenny felt very very alone.]

Hello?

[quite simply, the Master smiles]

Hello.

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

[Leans forward as if she senses something a bit off. Still smiling, though, she decides there's no good way to find out without a proper conversation, at least.]

Hello! You wouldn't happen to know where we are, would you?

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Now there's a face he hasn't seen in a while...]

--Jenny?

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's me!

[Pauses. Blinks.]

Do I know you?

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

Hello.

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

Hello.

Are you... a talking cat?

[thedeltaqueen.livejournal.com]

Well, hey there, hon.

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

Hello!

You know, I've met cat people who could talk, but they were all much taller! What species are you?

[ofalzarius.livejournal.com]

Is your dad from the Sol System?

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

No, but he loves the Sol System, especially Earth.

Jenny?

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

Dad?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Looking faintly puzzled at the Medusa Cascade bit] Hello.

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

[Is faintly puzzled that this woman looks faintly puzzled, but has generally been faintly puzzled all day.] Hi!

[grand-gaia.livejournal.com]

Hi?

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

Is that a question?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Child? You are returned?

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

I... returned? Did we meet before? Like with Ianto?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[turns around, then back to the girl in front of him]

Jenny?

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

[Another one? Okay! Jenny grins.]

Dad! Hello!

[ambitious-woman.livejournal.com]

[she is walking the Plane, as on occasion she has been known to do. In some ways, for all its unknowns, collectively it is still more calming than hr life in France. Her footsteps stop at the sight of a profile that whispers at familiarity]

I know you.

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

[Jenny stops and turns to the woman. She pauses and looks at her for a moment and then shakes her head.]

Do you? I'm sorry. Some other people say they know me but it's not really me, I guess. It's another version of me.

I'm Jenny, which you already know, right? Nice to meet you!

[guywaboomerang.livejournal.com]

The stars have names?

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

Yes! Sometimes lots of names!

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[he hasn't visited the Plane for some time; it's a nice bit of luck to see someone so significant on his first return, though he can tell she's not the same]

Jenny?

[morethananecho.livejournal.com]

[Turns at the sound of her name. She's about to greet him with another cheerful hello when something brings her up short. He certainly looks familiar. Blond and smiley and... do they have the same nose? She takes two tentative steps closer to him, then stares for a moment before asking, softly.]

Dad?
