[much cleaner today, but rather flustered]

So. Out of curiosity, exactly how long am I supposed to remain parked there?

It's a nice station, don't get me wrong. But I've never been one for settling down.

Until they let us go, obviously. Or you could do that government-toppling, society-destroying thing you do and stop the experiment. Whichever you prefer.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Right. Option two it is.

Although, I have to wonder. Why haven't you gone ahead with that already?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I'm not bored with my situation yet.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Well, I am. Not to mention I can recognize when something needs to be stopped.

So consider your vacation time over.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I'll send back the Hawai'ian tourist's shirts, shall I?

If you can figure out how to move, do tell me, please, Doctor. I grow weary of being in the same place all the time. You seem to be having too much fun to notice, unfortunately. Your Eighth, I mean. Not you.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Of course. I don't just plan on getting myself out of here. I mean everyone.

[an amused snort] Am I?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Even those whom you would rather remain trapped forever?

[laughs a little, shaking her head] He's having too much fun helping the natives recover from an alien pesticide to notice we haven't been able to leave, yet.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Even them. That kind of mucking with the timeline is bad for my health.

[eyeroll] Oh, he would. Give him a head's up, would you?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

I suppose it's more fun with them around, as well. Though honestly, you should talk to your other selves about the company they keep, Doctor. It's highly distressing.

Yes, well. I should, I suppose. I haven't actually told him about this place yet, though. Your Tenth said it should be all right and all, but I've not yet found a way to explain it that he wouldn't want to participate somehow. And I don't want to deal with Charlotte's incessant questioning.

I'm still trying to figure out how we're staying parked in the first place. Not that there aren't ways of grounding the TARDIS, just we happen to know most of them.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Good point.

But! If we take down the system, we'll likely disable whatever it is that's keeping us here in the process. So I'm starting at the top.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Also a good point! So far they're not very question friendly though. I did try pointing out letting us at least know more about this would help, since we're us and all.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

And what did the elusive they have to say?

[contract_star]

You can't leave your place either?

I haven't tried getting out of Tokyo, so I'm not sure, but I'm starting to think that that's happened to all of us.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Nope. The TARDIS won't even fully dematerialize.

It would make sense. If some people could leave, what would be the point?

[contract_star]

TARDIS?

I suppose. It's got to be a bit troublesome for the people who don't stay in one place for long. [Pause.] It would unfortunate if I could never leave Tokyo...

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

My ship.

Nah, don't worry. We won't be stuck long with me here. Do you travel?

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

Five minutes in once place always did seem too long for you.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Sometimes ten if it's exciting. Fifteen, tops.

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

God forbid it be half an hour.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Worlds have to be ending.

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

Have you tried travelling in time? Mine still seems capable.

Might be more exciting in a few centuries.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Of course I have. I'm locked in. One time, one place.

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[he frowns]

You have my sympathies, then. I feel trapped enough already.
