(no subject)

[The Doctor is back around! Well, more or less. He technically didn't leave, he's just been avoiding the Plane entirely. He would rather still be away but lately he prefers sitting somewhere away from the TARDIS while he does his work. It’s more relaxing to take a stroll through space.

Speaking of work, he’s completely engrossed in a data pad. He’s scrolling through it with a stylus, occasionally stopping to click something or read longer. Once or twice, his reading is accompanied by a small holographic projection of various planets above the screen.

He’s taken to walking around the empty space, mostly following the arms of a spiral galaxy. Get his attention if you want him!]

How many times have you defeated the Daleks? Compare this with the number of times they've defeated you.

That doesn't mean I should take this lightly.

It means you shouldn't worry about it as much as you're doing.

And if you're worried about Miss Noble, we'll just drop her off somewhere before we go there.

What are you going to do with Lucy?

Presumably leave her with Miss Noble. They can go shopping.

While we go fight with the Daleks.

Sounds like humans to me.

What about the others? That lot makes it sound like more get involved.

We don't need to follow their path. We know what we need to know to defeat the Daleks. They'll want us - you, more than anyone. I'll be able to sneak off and do what I must, and you can do much the same.

I suppose so. Though I haven't really thought of how this should be solved yet.

We kill them. Dead. And then we leave.

I can't believe I'm putting more thought into this than you are.

It's not half so difficult as you're making it out to be.

What's so easy about it?

We know how the story ends from everyone else. It's like cheating on a test! I'm sure you remember how to do that. We take their answers and apply them, without all the mistakes and stumbling around.

I still have problems with it.

If you take issue with the genocide, we need to have a long and multisyllabic word about acceptable acts of violence.

[The Doctor crosses his arms in a way that says, yes, it would be the fact that he has to commit genocide for the billionth time.]

[folds his arms]

Oh, okay, why don't we let the billion-strong army of Daleks live - and the mad scientist genius Davros, of course - and leave them to create a new reality bomb? What a brilliant idea!

I didn't say that! I just...wiping them out again. I can't do that.

Then I will.

That isn't exactly right, either.

Fortunately, my conscience is much better at handling this sort of thing, in that it doesn't exist so it doesn't have to.

But it still doesn't solve anything.

It kills the Daleks and makes me happy. I think it solves everything.
