[Appearing on the Plane today, mid jogging stride, is a rather soggy Dorothy! She's got a newspaper held over her head, but it's obviously not been doing much good, because her hair and clothes are drenched with rain anyway. She slows to a stop and removes her newspaper, wringing it out into a big puddle on the Plane floor, looking around sheepishly.]

Don't s'pose anybody's got an umbrella I can borrow?

I always leave them in the Zeppelin hangar, sorry.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

[Oh, good, it's HIM. Just who she wanted to see while she was dripping wet. Not. She gives him a Look.]

You don't have a zeppelin hangar.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[offended by this accusation]

Yes I do! Ask the Doctor. You can ask the Doctor about the umbrellas, too. It really irritates him, but I cannot stand the question-mark theme he has going on. it's painfully gimmicky.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

[She pulls her hair over her shoulder and starts to twist it into a rope to wring it out. She looks and sounds very unimpressed!]

I like question marks. So you're saying he might have an umbrella, then?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

No, I'm saying he won't, because they're all in the hangar.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

This mythical zeppelin hangar you supposedly have.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

The TARDIS is bigger on the inside.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh. I thought you were saying you had a zeppelin hangar. My mistake!

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

...It's a TARDIS. I'm a Time Lord. I live in it. It's mine.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

It's the Doctor's TARDIS. You just live in it. Don't you?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

It's mine. It belongs to my family, of which I am the last; it belongs to Gallifrey, of which I am, again, the last; and it belongs to the Doctor, who coincidentally, belongs to me. There's no possible way for it not to be my property, and if we're talking right-of-possession here, I have that one, too.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

But how can you be the last if the Doctor's around? For that matter, there's a lot of Doctors around. And didn't he have the TARDIS first? I thought he was just letting you live with him.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I had the TARDIS first. He stole it from my family, but it's still ours. The multiplicity of Doctors here is unimportant in the grand scheme of things, and, yes, fine, he's the other last of the Time Lords. As for letting me, you'll find it's an entirely different verb that's created our present living arrangement.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Oh? But I thought... well. That wasn't the impression I got, anyway.

[She ponders this. Possibly just to annoy the Master. Why is she so annoyed with him, you ask? GOOD QUESTION.]

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[she's just being a meanie and we all know it]

Hardly surprising.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

[Maybe it's payback for embarrassing her the other day, hmm :|]

Well, it's just, he doesn't exactly seem... happy, about it.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[grins]

As it should be.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

You don't like him?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

He is my best enemy. All of him.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Why do you have to be enemies? Wouldn't you rather be friends?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

No.

[quickcleanpure.livejournal.com]

No. But I have a dry newspaper. [He does! Not quite finished reading it, but that's okay. It's nothing but the usual.]

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's alright. I've got a long way to go yet anyway, another newspaper would just get soaked through long before I got to where I'm going. Thank you, though!

[Because she's nothing if not polite!]

[quickcleanpure.livejournal.com]

Any time.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Always pays to be helpful!

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

A sudden rainstorm?

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

[she wrings out her hair and offers Juni a half-smile]

That obvious, huh?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Well, I doubt you'd be holding a newspaper over your head if you were thrown in a lake.

[shadow-shot.livejournal.com]

Got caught in the rain, huh?

...I don't have an umbrella on me.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Oh, well. It's the thought that counts!

[although a thought won't keep her dry in the rain, but shh. She shrugs amiably]

It's the rainy season. I really shoulda brought my own, but I was running late.

[shadow-shot.livejournal.com]

Ahh, I get it. [Nod, nod.] Sometimes it just sneaks up on ya, too...well, here's hopin' ya don't get sick, okay?

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

I can get you one. Just a second.

[Poof! ..... Poof! He comes back with a black umbrella... and a towel. He hands both over.] What happened, get caught in a monsoon?

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

[Dorothy is DELIGHTED. She takes them and grins]

Oh, thank you so much! Oh, you're a treasure.

[She pats herself off with the towel and then starts to dry off her hair]

April Showers came a little early, I guess. It's the rainy season!

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

Ah, it's no problem! [He gives her a smile and a wink.]

Yeah? The rainy season for me starts around June, and when it comes, it's like it never stops. I hope you're not gonna be caught in it too long. Pretty girls shouldn't have to get sick.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Oh, you don't have to worry about that. I don't get sick. Just wet!

[she wrings out the towel and tries to get her hair a little drier]

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

You don't? Hah, lucky you! I wish I had that problem!

[He laughs a little.] Wow, do you need another dry towel?

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Aw, naw, I'm okay now. My clothes'll still be soggy no matter what I do, anyway.

[she ties her hair up with a bit of elastic she had on her wrist, just to get it off her neck]

I s'pose I shoulda known better anyway, it being the time of year it is, but when a friend asks you to come over, you come no matter what! Even if it is rainin' cats and dogs outside.

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

I know what you mean. Especially if they sound like they could really use the company, or something.

So, what's your name, if you don't mind my asking?

[aces-are-rare.livejournal.com]

The Professor has one, but I'm not sure where he is at the mo. I've got a and towel in my bag, though, if that's any use.
