20; This is the life you see [the devil tips his hat to me]

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[And here's a Doctor. He arrives on the Plane in his clean blue suit, looking more than a little satisfied with the world. Things have gone fairly well in his great plan (tentatively named: "Not Dying", though possibly to be renamed at some later date.]

[Rather than arriving on the Plane with his usual lab supplies or experiments, he's arrived with a checklist and a box full of dusty holiday brochures for a variety of planets and time periods.]

Predictions of my death have been grossly exaggerated, so it seems.

[for now, anyway]





[The Doctor has been canon-updated through Waters of Mars. Feedback is most appreciated.]

[mun: cracks up]

[Doctor: blinks]

What?

[mun:bows]

[Tamaki: braces both the Doctor's shoulders. He looks starry eyed and impressed]

How noble you are, trying to hide your truly virtuous motives behind a curtain of artificial greed and rudeness! You are a truly selfless hero, one not interested in accolades or recognition but in that highest of motives, the greater good.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[is still lost]

Yes, well, obviously. But---what?

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

It's obvious you need this card to complete some great mission that involves securing just the right pieces that will power a super machine used to save the universe from the clutches of evil!

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Actually----that's pretty good. You should write that down.

[no srs now]

Actually, I was just taking it to see what your reaction would be if I wouldn't give it back.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

[confused]

Oh? Why?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Because if it is part of your experiment, it might be linked to you somehow.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

Oh. I guess that makes sense.

You must be very clever. I appreciate the concern you've taken. I can tell you must be very kind as well, willingly helping a stranger the way you have today.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[blinks again] Is this the way you normally are, or is the experiment affecting you?

No, no, don't answer that. You probably don't know.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

Did I say something strange?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Nope.

You're just...incredibly nice.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

Why wouldn't I be?

Anyway, you've been very kind to me today, too. You didn't need to show concern for a stranger, but you did. That's a sign that you really are a very good person.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

I'm not, actually. But thank you.

[reaches into his pockets, finding a little slip of paper and scribbling down a number on it]

This is my mobile. Well, technically it's my friend's, but I have it. If you start to feel anything, anything at all, call me. I'll bring this card back to you.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

[takes the number]

Ah, thank you. I guess there's no way you'll just give it back to me now? I was hoping to make it into a keepsake and add it to one of my scrapbooks.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

In a bit.

Once we know what's going on.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

Ah, well I guess that's okay. Anyway I made a new friend, so that's good!

I all ready know you're the Doctor, but I forgot myself in my excitement and amazement. I'm Suou Tamaki.

How long do you think it will take to discover what's happening?
