[now arriving on the Plane is a nicely dressed ginger-haired woman who takes one look at where she is, gasps, and screws her eyes shut]

Oh. My. God. I'm in the middle of outer space! Again! [but something in the back of her mind tells her to stop being so ridiculous; if she really is, she'd be dead by now and she certainly doesn't feel dead, and besides, didn't see meet someone in a place like it not too long ago?] Ohhh, when I get my hands on that woman and those creepy Wonder Twins...

[and speaking of hands, she feels around for a chair she swears she saw when her eyes were open and--ah ha! she finds it and quickly has a seat, her hands holding the edge of the seat tight.] All right. [takes a breath] Let's think about this. There's no way this is really outer space. It just can't. [she takes a peek out of one eye then slowly opens the other. slowly:] Okay...that's better. I think.

[louder now because she needs to focus on something else for the time being before she goes mad. or becomes ill. whichever comes first.] Right! I want some answers and not from that cow. Come on, there's got to be somebody sane around here!

[when he hears yelling, being Oliver, he decides to head in that direction. comes up to Donna with a friendly smile] New here, I take it?

[tastefulfashion.livejournal.com]

You may want to start by asking a question or two first if you want answers.

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

[waves a hand dismissively] Nah, I've always been here and only just now decided to say something about it. Of course I'm new! Who are you?

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

All right then, let's start with who you are and where I am.

[a little softer] ...And do you ever get used to the feeling of falling even though your feet are on the ground?

[oliverplus]

[laughs] Whoa, okay! Calm down. I'm Oliver. [waves] How 'bout you? Oh, and welcome to the Astral Plane! [gestures theatrically at their surroundings]

[tastefulfashion.livejournal.com]

[folding her arms across her front] I am Romanadvoratrelundar, President of Gallifrey and all of her dominions. And you are in a place known only as the Astral Plane.

[and now with just the faintest of smiles] I do but it all varies from being to being.

[lamb_of_gold]

What sort of answers?

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

Astral Plane? That the planet's name or something?

...I'm Donna. Donna Noble.

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

[a gasp!] No, you're joshing me! Really? President of Gallifrey?

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

[opens her mouth to ask something, but is distracted by this new person's looks] Is your hair really that colour?

[oliverplus]

Well, it's not a planet, really. More of a...dimension. I think.

Nice to meet you, Donna! So you went into an odd shop today, huh?

[lamb_of_gold]

[oy] It is.

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

[furrows her eyebrows and mutters to herself] A dimension? I thought that wasn't possible...

And you, Oliver. So you found it as well?

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

[she cracks a smile] Sorry, had to ask. Never can tell these days. So Purplelocks, what's your name?

[tastefulfashion.livejournal.com]

[a nod!] I am.

[lamb_of_gold]

Oh no?

I am Mu.

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

[is still surprised!] The actual President of Gallifrey?

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

Nah, not when you've been to some of the places I've been to lately.

Did you say your name is Mu? Like the sound a cow makes, huh?

[lamb_of_gold]

A traveler?

Closer to the Greek Letter, but yes.

[oliverplus]

[raises an eyebrow] Why's that?

Oh, yeah, everybody you meet here will've done. It's...well, I don't know how exactly, but I guess it's how you get here the first time.

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm travelling with the Doctor at the mo'. Though where he's got to, I don't know...

I'm Donna, Mu. Donna Noble. [holds her hand out] Nice to meet you.

[tastefulfashion.livejournal.com]

That is what I said.

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

Something the Doctor said when we first met...

I take it you found the shop somewhere in Birmingham, yeah? Can't fool me with that accent.

[lamb_of_gold]

Oh? I'm sure you'll see him around here sooner or later.

[He takes it gently] Good to meet you, Ms. Noble.

[forever-noble.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, Roma--is there something shorter I can call you?
