[because Christy says I need to post with Annie. So here's Annie, doing paperwork and things. Paperwork is important and terribly terribly boring. She doesn't want to do any more organizing and collating and organizational things, because it is boring and annoying and stuff. But she does what she must because she's responsible and things, despite the mind numbing tedium. She knows she'll be satisfied with a task well done once it is done, but at the moment, well she'd rather be doing anything but... So bother her at your leisure, because she could do with a good bother just about now.]

{That is certainly some prose, Mel. ilu

But Diva will do her usual thing and sit on your desk as you work, Annie. Or, it's what she usually does to Sam.}

Ne, you and Sam both, Annie? You work too hard.

[I am a wordsmith, man. ilu2

She looks up at Diva, a little surprised. She looks down at her papers then shrugs]

If I had a say I wouldn't be working on this at all at the moment. More Sam's doing than mine, I'd say.

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's no fair. You should tell Sam to do it hi---

{A pause, then} On second thought, maybe not. He probably would do it. He already does enough of it.

[looks up at Diva, closing up one of her files. She gives Diva a tight smile]

Yeah, of course you're too right. Knowing Sam he probably would do.

[looks at Diva for another second or two, then back to work as she shifts the file to the side into a pile, then grabs another]

{Tilts her head}

Why do you say it like that?

[mouthyplonk.livejournal.com]

[seemingly engrossed in what she's doing. She looks up at Diva]

Say what like what?

[Anniiiiie. Have another leather jacket guy a Nine! He's very good at bothering people. Just ask Gene.] Paperwork? Suppose doing it here's a good way to stretch out a deadline. What's it for?

[mouthyplonk.livejournal.com]

[hey, it's the seventies. Leather jackets are to be expected.]

Yeah, is good for a breather, too. It can get hard to get anything done in there at times.

Just got to go and organize some suspect files and witness reports. They're all sort of tossed about, so it takes a good chunk of your day to get anything in order.

[grins] Another police officer, then? You wouldn't happen to know a DCI Gene Hunt, would you?

[mouthyplonk.livejournal.com]

He's our Guv. How've you met him then, here just recently?

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

Yep. [nods] He was chained up to Arthur Eddington. Poor bloke.

[mouthyplonk.livejournal.com]

That was all a bit weird, especially when we had to pile into the Guv's car.

He was treating that Arthur bloke all right, wasn't he? Poor thing looked like he hadn't had a decent night's rest last I saw of him.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Hellooooo, secretary. And is that police work?

[mouthyplonk.livejournal.com]

[looks up startled. She's heard about this Master, but it's still extremely alarming to see up close. He could be Sam's twin. Except he sounds and dresses and even stands a little differently. She instantly tenses up, and stops short of just dropping. Probably largely due to how striking that resemblance is, though she's loathe to admit that to herself, let alone anyone else.]

It's nothing for you to concern yourself over.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

No? [he smiles at her, one of his more charming ones] But what if someone mistakes me for DI Tyler?

[mouthyplonk.livejournal.com]

[doesn't smile back] Wouldn't happen. You're nothing alike, save for the superficial.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I'm a very good liar.

[lovethepossum.livejournal.com]

[There is a bouncy Cally, run for it, Annie] Hallo there! Lotsa papers there, do you have to do all of them? Because that's mean, and boring.

I'm Cally, hello!

[mouthyplonk.livejournal.com]

[stops and takes all that in and finally laughs] Can't argue with that, but try telling that to Sam.

I'm Annie.

[lovethepossum.livejournal.com]

[Laughter! Laughter is a good reaction, it beats staring] I don't understand paperwork really, it seems very pointless, you'll just lose it eventually or never look at it again, and the whole boring thing.

Nice to meet you! Is Sam your boss or are you his boss or something?

[mouthyplonk.livejournal.com]

[Yay for good reactions] It's got its uses from time to time, hasn't it? Not crazy about doing it, but getting it all done means we might catch a villain we're after. Probably will get lost once we're done with it, bet you're right on that count.

Sam's my boss. It's the Guv, then Sam, then Ray, and then me and Chris for the most part. There's a few others too. But just the five of us seemed to have found this place.

[lovethepossum.livejournal.com]

[Good reactions are always good] Well, maybe, occasionally, ain't very familiar with it you see... Suppose it can be good sometimes, everything can be good if it tries hard enough, even if it does get lost eventually, though perhaps if it didn't get lost eventually it'd be nicer, unless it's just evil naturally.

Ah, that's nice then, at least you have people to talk about here with, it's nice here isn't it?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[The Doctor will just be here, flipping through your paperwork.]

Looks a bit dull.

[mouthyplonk.livejournal.com]

Looks aren't decei-

[gives him a look, putting that paperwork he's rifling through back where it was]

Took me close to a half hour to get that there sorted.

[gets a good look at him]

Arthur, you look just like him, don't you? Everyone around here has a twin, don't they?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[He pauses in his paper-messing-up to blink at Annie. Then he grins and starts laughing.]

Brilliant! Oh, that's new, isn't it? Never been confused for Arthur. One of the other ones, yes, or them confused with me, usually, but that's... [Sorry, this is hilarious to him. Please hold.]
