life on mars (d1) gene hunt

(no subject)

[today, Plane-goers, is a special day! for you see, today we have sighted the elusive 'Guv' in his natural habitat: the pub. or as natural as a pub comes on the Plane, meaning he's at the Astral Bar. because really, when isn't he. but today is different, because the Guv isn't drinking, though he sourly wishes he were. no, today, this terrifying animal has in front of him actual, honest-to-god paperwork

you see, Plane-goers, on occasion, the Guv will stop being boorish and actually look at casework. the reasons behind this unusual behaviour differ, but for today, that reason is nightmares, and what better way to soothe a distraught mind than with pointless, nancy paperwork?

yeah, that's what the Guv thinks, too]

Bloody hell.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Of course it's boring. It's bleedin' paperwork. What did you think it'd be, all rainbows and sunshine?

W-Well no, of course not! But Sam was always doing it, so I don't know.

Tyler's a picky pain. Paperwork suited him.

{She smiles fondly}

I guess so. You know, he wouldn't spend time with me sometimes because he had paperwork to do. He's really no fun, sometimes.

[he sees that smile, Diva]

Bloke's a good copper, luv. Even if he's a nancy loon.

{She sees your sort-of smile too!}

He just didn't know how to have fun sometimes. I would almost have to drag him out of his flat to do things. Ne, but how is your Sam doing? If...he's mentioned me before, I'm sorry. I thought that for a while, maybe he would be good enough.

[Gene doesn't answer for a bit, considering how to answer that, then shrugs] Not sure Tyler can ever really change, Diva.

I don't think so either. That's why I gave up. {On that Simm, anyways, but telling pretty much anyone about her flirting with the Master would be bad. Especially Gene.}

But I moved to France a little while ago. It was taking Sam's advice, to try and live...simply, I guess. I have a small little house, and I work selling wine. Well, not selling yet, since Arnould is a lot like you, actually. He says I'm not allowed to meet any of his customers for a while. So I've just been doing little things, really.

[...he'd ground her so fast]

A man with sense, then. [teeeeeeeasing] I take it you haven't offed anyone in a while, then?

{She fake pouts} Of course not! I'm being good. After all, if I weren't, then I know that Gene would be upset with me.

{And the last time that happened, she got shot a lot, but she won't say that.} There's someone that wants to "off" me, though. Have you met Omega?

You weren't always the smartest little trollop, you know.

[and this, well. this catches his attention] No.

I don't even know what a trollop is and I know you're saying something mean. I'm not that bad! {Except she is}

'course not, luv.

{She pouts again, but then, back to Omega}

Well, about Omega, he's a Time Lord. But he really hates vampires. So when I drank some of the Doctor's blood, he found out and got really mad. So now he's out to kill me, or something like that.

[frigging Time Lords :|

also ignoring the blood bit because osubdgosb justno]

You asking me for protection?

Oh no, of course not. Not that I don't trust Gene to, but...it doesn't really matter. It's not like he'll really kill me. It's just annoying.

Join the club. [the annoyed club, that is. he's been a member for a while now]

{Laughs}

Oh, I don't think I want to. Being more like Gene...How terrible that would be!

Oh, sod off, Diva.

[IT IS SAID SOMEWHAT AFFECTIONATELY THOUGH]

You know, I was thinking of maybe holding a concert here. I'd have to ask the Twins to help me with the music, but it would be nice. Would Gene come?

Would it be good music or that shite Tyler liked?

...Well, I think it's good. It'd be opera, since that's what I can sing the best.

Yeah, that la la la shite.

{Pouts} Have you even heard me sing? It's much better than that!

You want me to come that bad, luv?
