01][The search for an answer is met with a darker day

[There are footsteps to be heard moving across the Plane. And these footsteps would belong to a young looking woman, her blond hair resting over her shoulders and down her back. If one were to look carefully, they would possibly catch a glimpse of something shimmering, woven into her hair - something not unlike a certain Flavia had done herself. With an expression of pure curiosity she gazed about as she let her arms rest at her side.

She was dressed in a robe of blue velvet, an intricate pattern of leaves woven into the cloth in a darker thread of azure. Her fingertips could be seen peeking out from the belled out sleeves showing that she wore black gloves and around her throat were simple yet elegant strings of silver with a jewel in the center of each. And resting over her chest on a simple black cord is a simple looking ornament with a not-so-simple looking symbol carved into it.

The mark of a President of Gallifrey.]


... This is certainly a change in scenery.

[Pausing, she looks around again, this time her left brow lifting ever so carefully.]

Granted while I wanted a bit of time away from the Council, stepping away into another dimension entirely was not quite what I had in mind. It is considerably quieter--that much I can appreciate. The arguments of stuffy old senators can be dreadfully dull after the first few micro-spans of having to listen to it. And even more so when they continue to interrupt you when you're trying to make a valid point. One would assume they want to hear some helpful insight.

No, no, they would prefer to inflate their own egos and remain to be blind to half of what is going on outside the Citadel. It is rather fortunate Leela does not have to sit through it all. She would have means of having her own points made but then it would result in the Chancellery guard barging in and more paperwork to be dealt with regarding the CIA.

[Again there's a pause when she thinks about everything in those few moments to follow before resting her hands on her hips.] But I really do need to be getting back. As confident as I am in Braxiatel's abilities to co-ordinate a meeting like that I would rather myself being there in order to oversee it all.

...CIA?
contract_star: (all innocence)

Celestial...oh. [Smiles.] I thought you were talking about the Central Intelligence Agency. Um, on Earth.
contract_star: (there might even be puppies!)

You'll fit in well around here, then. Only about half the people here are from Earth, I think.

A summit? No, it's an experiment, actually. And everyone here is a test subject.

They do that, yes. This is a sort of crossroads between realities--it's called the Astral Plane. You can come and go from here by thinking about it, though.

But time doesn't pass while you're here.

[...he's not sure he likes that tone of voice. He usually finds it's used by someone who hasn't seen him around on the Plane before.]

Yes?
contract_star: (puppies?)

[personal profile] contract_star 2009-01-13 08:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yes...you've heard of it before?

[identity profile] ofalzarius.livejournal.com 2009-01-13 09:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Unfortunately. Especially since these reactions make him think the Master might not have been lying after all.]

Of course it's me.

[A long pause.]

...Romana?

[personal profile] contract_star 2009-01-13 09:15 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. Alright.

In any case, it's usually an alright place, though there are a few people you might want to avoid. Namely the Masters and a young man named Dietrich.

[Blinks. He moves a bit closer.] It's me! The Doctor! Erm, well. You might not recognize this regeneration, I suppose. You don't remember this place?
contract_star: (puppies?)

[personal profile] contract_star 2009-01-13 09:59 am (UTC)(link)
Two of them. Two regenerations, that is. That happens here as well--people can arrive here from different times, or multiples of the same person will appear. Or even people who look the exact same as someone else, but are completely different people. For instance, there are a lot of the Doctor here, and a lot of people who look like him. [Slight smile.] If you know the Master, you probably know the Doctor as well.
