[currently, the Doctor is crawling on the floor in the entrance of the ballroom, occasionally stopping to look and feel under the couches for something. he doesn't show it, but he's been rather shaken up--and he certainly is not happy]

Come on out! I know you're here somewhere. You've got to be! I felt you before you--[he pauses, his hand suddenly darting under a plush chair]--did whatever you did a few moments ago.


[ooc: The Doctor had to make a choice! When you tag in, I'll leave you a little message in his reply back so you know what's up~]

[he stops] Hold on a mo'... You're not the Brigadier...are you? Who are you? I feel like I know you.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

I am fond of the Brigadier, yes, but I am not him. You should know who I am, Doctor.

[bit_impossible]

[steps closer] No, but... [reaches a hand out, touching her arm] I thought--[he stops, a smile growing on his face] It's been a long time since I've seen you like this.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

You are a long time in my future.

[bit_impossible]

Well, be that as it may... [have a bear hug, TARDIS]

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

[hugs back!] You are well?

[bit_impossible]

I am! [pulls back a bit] Blimey, look at you... You've met the other me's here, right?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

I have, yes.

[bit_impossible]

Shame, I haven't done. Well, I've met past incarnations, but not me me. Probably for the best really.

How are you, old girl? ...You haven't had to make a choice recently, have you?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

You are the only one left, it seems, save your Fifth.

No choices, no. Why?

[bit_impossible]

[softly] Yes...I've noticed. Shame really; I was supposed to have lunch with one of them.

Because I have. Seems like anyone who speaks to me has to tell the truth, even if they don't want to. But I wonder... You know, if I chose differently, people probably would only tell me lies.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Why should anyone want to lie to you?

[bit_impossible]

Don't know! You'd think people would know by now that telling me the truth is the quickest way for me to solve an number of situations.

...Out of curiosity though, what do you think of this incarnation of mine?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Humans are strange creatures.

You are the Doctor.

[bit_impossible]

Well, it's not just humans, but yes, they are. [he still loves them anyway]

I--well, yes. Yes, I am, but--oh, never mind. Are you still with my eighth incarnation?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

[she just looks at him strangely, then nods] I am, yes.

[bit_impossible]

Ah good! Thought as much. [smiles] Who else is with him? Well, me--well, you know.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Lucie Miller, at the moment.

[bit_impossible]

Lucie! Ohhhh, blimey, Lucie Miller... I haven't seen her in years!

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

How fortunate for you.

[bit_impossible]

[he frowns, taken aback] Oh, don't tell me you've got a problem with her as well. What don't you like about her?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

I was trapped for centuries at the bottom of a lake because of her.
