[The Doctor looks a little lost in the woods, literally and figuratively. He's staring at his reflection in the stream, arms wrapped around his knees.

After a few long moments of brooding, he frowns, and starts pulling things out of his pockets. His sonic screwdriver, high-tech night vision binoculars, psychic paper, a banana --

he frowns at that one]

When did I put you in there? And what for? Who carries around a banana? Can't blame myself for liking them, they've got loads of potassium, but it's a bit random...why can't I remember?

[he slowly peels the banana and eats it, hoping it will spark something in his memories. Or lack thereof.]


((ooc: Yes, it's another Nine post, and the start of his experiment!))

[simply] The TARDIS. We've been travelling together for a long time, ever since -- [he frowns, unable to remember how it started]

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

You remember me, but not yourself or where we are from?

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

No, I remember we're from Gallifrey. What I can't remember is why we left.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

So you could save me and free yourself from Time Lord tyranny.

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[wistfully] Sounds like I made the right choice, then. ...Could you tell me who I am? I know we travel the universe, and sometimes I've got companions, but...stuff is missing. Important stuff, I think.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

You are the Doctor. [and that ... should explain everything]

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[nods] I know that bit, but what does it mean?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

It means you have chosen to help others. You wanted to right the universe. To save everyone.

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

...Ah. Makes sense, now. [he pats the ground next to him, gesturing for the TARDIS to sit] Wonder why they chose this experiment. If there was a reason, maybe.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

[she sits, watching him quietly] Perhaps they are interested in seeing how memory affects Time Lords?

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[he leans against her, frowning] Maybe. Or maybe they're trying to distract me from something. I dunno.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

If that were the case, why not affect all of your selves?

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[shrugs] Been wondering the same thing. 'Course, I've only seen my Tenth since it started.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

He is unaffected?

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

Yep. He scanned my brain, both with the screwdriver and Contact. Said there was something in there he couldn't identify.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

And you believe that something to be a block implanted by this place?

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

It's the only thing that makes sense, isn't it?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Logically, yes. But this place has proven to be illogical more often than not.
