doctor who (dk) the ninth doctor

(no subject)

[The Doctor is on the Plane again, looking rather cheerful. It has a lot to do with the fact that his sense of Time seems to be back to normal, and he's finally rid of that damn card. It also has to do with the fact that he's just discovered the black hole on the Plane. You know, the one that has that sign reading "Please do not drop things or each other into the hole. Thank you!"

So of course, after making a few scientific measurements, Nine is busy dropping things in it. Harmless things, mind you, like bits of string, oddly shaped coins, bananas, etc.] Definitely a black hole, yep! That's fantastic, how'd they get one of those in here? And more importantly, why isn't it sucking everything else in?

[now he's poking at it, and sticking his hand down there--] Blimey, that's cold! [hand goes back in the pocket, yes]

Did--did you just put your hand in a black hole?!

Ne, be careful. If you drop things in there, they won't come back up.

[grins] Yep! Had the feeling it wouldn't pull me in or anything. And look, I was right! [yes, he stuck his hand in a black hole solely based on a hunch]

Yeah, that thing's cool, isn't it? I wouldn't try sticking a body part in there, though. You already found out that it's really cold.

[amused] I've sort of gathered that, thanks. [he pointedly ignores the bit about being careful, though] How've you been?

I've been fine.

But I just mean that you shouldn't try and stick your hand in there. So it'd be better to be careful, wouldn't it?

But that--you--

[he's not quite sure what's crazier--a black hole that isn't sucking everything in, or a guy who just stuck his hand in one.]

That's just crazy!

It is, yeah. It ought to be hotter, actually since it's so tiny....I wonder what would happen if I jumped in it? Not that I'm planning on trying, but it does say not to put people in it. I imagine someone's tried before.

[waves] Hello, I'm the Doctor, have we met? [a beat] Actually, no, hang on, I don't think we have.

Probably. You generally only get warnings like that when...you know, it's happened. I don't think I even want to know who it happened to, or I guess what happened to them.

Glad to hear it!

And I've already done it, so the point's a bit moot, don't you think?

I guess, but I don't have the best memories of it, either. I'm probably a little biased.

[curiously] What happened? If you don't mind me asking.

...

You're just "the doctor"?

I'd like to know what happened, 'cause this isn't a normal black hole. I know a black hole when I see one...my people invented them, y'know!

Yep! Just "the Doctor." Nice to meet you!

Not at all. There were people with wings that looked like people that can come here, but they were different. We were asked to throw them in here.

{She peers at the mini-black hole curiously}

There was one that looked like me, but Wade killed it. Or, even more than that. He told me that he enjoyed it too, that's all.

For real? How do you invent a black hole, anyways?

[frowns] I'm sorry. ...Why did you have to throw them in the black hole? And what happened to them when you did?

I don't know. We weren't told what happened, but considering that they tried to kill people, I don't think many people cared.

Ask Omega! He's one of our Founders, absolute genius [the Doctor is a fanboy, yes]. 'Course, he's on some sort of experiment right now, and he thinks of himself as Peylix...that was his younger self back at the Academy.

Well, I don't even know what he looks like, but if I meet a guy that introduces himself as Omega, I'll be sure to ask. Science isn't my favorite, but...inventing a black hole just sounds weird.

[chuckles] He looks...like me, actually. Well, one of me. My Fifth self, actually. [pause] I'm the Doctor, by the way!

{Grins} Is that so? I met another Doctor, but he looks a bit younger than you.

...Just how many of, uh, "you" are there, anyways?

[surprised] Which one? Did have blonde hair?

Around here I've only met four other selves...three versions of my Tenth and an alternate version of my Fifth. There might be more wandering about, though.
