life on mars (d1) gene hunt

(no subject)

[Gene appears, a sandwich stuffed into his mouth, a cig in his other hand. he may or may not have stolen said food from a suspect currently being held at CID. he'll never admit it if you ask, anyway. at any rate, he's grinning maniacally from behind his sammich] Gene Genie: 1. Scum: nicked.

Sort of like you, right? [gives him a look that clearly indicates he still questions the Doctor's alien-ness]

Yep! I can prove it, you know. My biology is different. I have two hearts.

You're full of shit.

Then I wouldn't have room for the hearts. It's easy enough to test, you know.

[...can't help it and laughs] And how would you suggest I do that?

[grins a bit] Well! You could just feel the double heartbeat. There's one on each side, hard to miss. Or you could use a glass as a makeshift stethoscope.

[that's a dumb option, Doctor. Gene disappears a moment and reappears with a glass] I'm not touching your ruddy chest. [stands there, holding the glass like a div]

[mentally laughing at how he looks] Well, have a go, then! [shoves his hands into his pockets, thereby pulling back his coat]

[takes his time because this is very, very gay. he's actually thinking he should have just tried punching the Doctor, instead, and slamming him against a wall. would have been more manly. buuuut eventually listens, eyes widening, and steps back] How'd you do that?

[he's used to being handled roughly anyway; but since Gene took the gay-way, he smiles] Biology. It's natural to my species. Bi-vascular system. I don't know how humans survive with only one. It seems so inefficient.

You're bloody kidding me.

Nope! You heard them yourself. It's not the only biological difference but it's one of them.

...all right then, hit me. What are these other 'differences' you supposedly have?

Oooh, well, long life spans, very slow physical aging, much lower body temperature, respiratory bypass system, ability to completely regenerate every cell in my body, radiation doesn't bother me...

[he doesn't even know what half of that means, Doctor] In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary: come again?

[grins] Right, sorry. I have extra 'lungs' that store air for me, my body temperature is cold, and if something kills me, I come back, just a bit different.

[scoffs] So what, you're Jesus?

[stares at him] Honestly, what is it with people and thinking I'm Jesus?

The whole 'coming back to life' thing is a pretty big tipoff there, luv.

It's just a regenerative process.

People don't regenerate.

Most species don't, no.

And you expect me to believe you can?

Well, the only time I do is when I'm dying and I'd rather not die just to prove it.

[just gives you that look like 'right, and I'll believe it when I see it...maybe'] So is that how you got Tyler interested in you? Your alien powers?
