[sitting at a desk in the middle of the Astral Plane, working on his paperwork like a good little nancy boy. And, like a good little nancy boy, he's listening to a broadway musical. On the glasses Fumie gave him, to be specific.

In fact, he's singing along to one. Yes indeed, Sam's singing "If You Were Gay."]

I want not to be aware of them, then. I was content before. I do not appreciate what you have done.

[didorothy]

[smiles wryly, jotting something down] Guess we're both cowards, then, aren't we?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

[narrows her eyes] I am not a coward.

[didorothy]

More afraid than you're willilng to admit...

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

I am not -- [cuts herself off, glowering] You frustrate me, Sam Tyler.

[didorothy]

I get that a lot.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Then why do you persist? What do you hope to gain from doing this?

[didorothy]

The truth, I suppose.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

The truth of what?

[didorothy]

Any truth. Frustrating people isn't my purpose.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

And yet you are so very good at doing it. [why yes, she's a hypocrite!] What is your purpose, Sam?

[didorothy]

I could quote Avenue Q back at you in response, you know. I don't know. Narrow it down. What's my purpose in life? What's my purpose now? As a police officer? As a human being? I don't just have the one.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

[frowns] What is your purpose in cofusing me? What is your purpose in talking with me as you are?

[didorothy]

No purpose. I don't think, "Hey, let's confuse the TARDIS there!" I just talk the way - I'm... 'acting naturally,' I guess.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

It is quite irksome. [tilts her head] What is your purpose as a police officer, then?

[didorothy]

Protect and help innocent people, see the law upheld and justice served, do my duty to this city and country...

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Do you enjoy that?

[didorothy]

I do, very much.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

You and the Doctor ... are similar in that regard, then. Is that why you like him?

[didorothy]

No, well, maybe. It's why I get along with him, but that's something different.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Different in what way?

[didorothy]

Getting along with someone tends to involve agreement, whether it's in ideals or agreeing to disagree. Liking someone ... can be entirely inexplicable, actually. More to do with personality - which is related to agreeableness, but not entirely. Things overlap.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

And so you simply get along with the Doctor, then?

[didorothy]

No. I like them, too.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Well. That is a good thing, then. [purses her lips] I think.
