[Sirius has been attempting to cope with the fact that Diva is just gone, and has a nice pile of booze stocked up in her mansion. He's halfheartedly been trying to organise things a bit with Remus' help, and there is a big sign outside the mansion now that says: "Free Stuff and Free Rooms," because he can't handle how empty it feels, even with Remus there.

On this particular morning, he's suffering from a nasty hangover. So it takes him awhile to notice that something is different. But when he gets around to curing said hangover and realising what's happened, he (she?) curses and storms out of the mansion, still dressed in his pyjamas and looking absolutely livid.]

Alright, who's responsible for this? Even Snivellus wouldn't have stooped so -- no hang on, that's giving him too much credit. The greasy-haired git probably would've, if he could have figure out how.

[Donna is...a bit confused. first there's this sign about free stuff from the mansion, and now a woman she doesn't recognise is ranting and raving in front of the mansion and acting like she owns the flipping place!] Oi! I don't know who you think has done this, sweetheart--[which she says in the most sarcastic way possible]--but last I knew, you weren't the one to make the rules up regarding that place. [she points at the mansion]

[Sirius is surprised to see Donna again -- it's been awhile since the first time they met. He remembers her well enough, though.] ...Donna? It's me, Sirius. I moved in with Diva ages ago, but...she's gone now. [his anger at the situation fades to sadness, though he attempts to hide it]

[that...well, that surprises her.] No. Really? [she pauses for a moment, giving Sirius a once-over] Can wizards do that? Change into animals and their sex at will?

[makes a face] Some can, but I'm not a Metamorphmagus, only an Animagus. And I didn't turn into a woman "at will," either, I just woke up this way! Talk about a bloody awful hangover...Merlin's balls, what am I going to do?

[it's one thing to deal with the Doctor and all the stuff she sees, but this whole wizarding thing is another story altogether] Well, I don't know about you, but I'd start by asking him what he did with yours.

[he blinks, then laughs a bit] If I could, I would. Somehow, though, I don't think Merlin's got anything to do with this.

[she tries for a smile but doesn't quite achieve it] No, I don't either. I mean, you can still go back to your reality and all, right? You're not stuck here like we were before... [she trails off, really not eager to think about that time again]

[he looks rather closed-off now, but his voice is calm] I can, but I don't generally spend much time there anyway, considering.

Considering--[she stops as she remembers what Sirius had told her about that wizard prison, Azka-something]--oh, yeah... Could be worse, I think. Imagine their surprise if they saw a woman sitting in there.

But why are you giving everything away? If you're living there, you'll want something in that big mansion of yours.

[shrugs] I doubt Dementors would care either way. They can't exactly see like we can, anyway.

And I haven't got much use for it, have I? I mean, I'll want to keep a few necessities, sure, but it's a bit extravagant in there for me. [reminds him too much of Number 12, Grimmauld Place]

[pulls a face] Bit demented for a Dementor then, huh?

Well...you wouldn't happen to have any vases in there, would you? I had one in the TARDIS--until recently. [no, that's not a slightly bitter tone in her voice, nope.]

[Olivia is rather startled when a random woman in pyjamas comes running out of the mansion yelling. it takes her a second to realise she is not yelling at her and then another second to respond] Uh...I take it something's happened? You okay?

[ooc: Temporary stand-in for

oliverplus!]

[have a scowl, Olivia] I'm a bloody woman, that's what happened! And no, I'm not okay, thanks.

[ooc: Awesome! :3 Also uh, I'm going to be using male pronouns because I keep forgetting to switch and he hasn't switched mentally anyway. ...I should probably add a note about that. XD]

[a beat. then:] You're not supposed to be.

[he's totally sulking] No, I'm not. And even if I wasn't the handsomest bloke around, I still want my body back.

[her expression tightens just a bit. another person who's not in their usual body! and another person who knows it, too...] What's your name?

Sirius Black. Yours? [he'd be a bit more polite about things if he wasn't in such a bad mood...]

Sirius? [frowns. she's sure she knows that name, but without the face to help her match it, it takes a moment for her to get through the amnesia enough to place it] Oh! Firewhiskey, right?

Ol--Ollie. Ollie Day.

[he frowns too, peering at her -- he never got Oliver's last name, so he doesn't make the connection right away] You know me? I think I'd remember a face like yours. Unless we drank a lot of Firewhiskey.

[drops her gaze, looking a bit uncomfortable] We did, but...I don't think it's the drinks. If what everyone's telling me is true, I'm...ah...not supposed to female either.

[It takes him a minute, but then --] ...Oliver?

[makes a face] Yeah. Well, I'm Olivia. I...don't actually remember him. I mean, me. [shakes her head, sighing] This is confusing...

But you sound like your memory's all right, at least.

[nods] My memory's perfect, far as I know. Of course, if it wasn't, I probably wouldn't remember...that's a bit odd though, that you don't remember being a bloke at all.

[shrugs] Just that lucky, I guess. I wouldn't've even known if people didn't keep telling me I'm one. It's...yeah, odd's a good word for it. Or mad.

But--no offense--I'm not sure I'd like being in your shoes any better.

[wryly] I don't like being in my shoes either, so no offense taken. Any idea what's caused this?

The Plane? [sourly] Meredith's probably sitting somewhere laughing at us all.

[Jamie, still stuck as Two, is looking at the sign and trying to figure out if it's a serious one or not when Sirius comes storming out of the mansion. He frowns. There's too many people that he's running into that are having something odd befall them recently and he doesn't like it one bit.]

Aye, well, if you find out, I'd like to know that as well. What's happened to you, then?

[Sirius doesn't recognise this bloke either, but he figures he'll find out soon enough if he knows him. He gestures at his chest at the question.] This happened. I'm supposed to be a bloke. What happened to you?

A...oh! [Jamie stares for a moment, trying to figure out if he recognizes who she...er, he...is really supposed to be. He doesn't, though, and shakes his head.]

I've been put in someone else's body, I think. A friend of mine, called the Doctor. What's your name, anyway?

[Sirius stares a bit] ...The Doctor? Really? I haven't met a version of him that looks like this before. I'm Sirius, by the way. Sirius Black. The Doctor's a friend of mine, too.

He's my Doctor, that's why. And he's not on the Plane. At least, not that I know of. [He probably shouldn't be cranky at Sirius, though. It's not his fault they're both stuck the way they are, and he offers out his hand.]

I'm Jamie McCrimmon. Which one are you friends with, then? The skinny one with the hair, the blond one or the one who's a lassie?

[raises an eyebrow at that "my Doctor" comment, but shakes his hand anyway] The skinny one with the hair. I haven't met a blond one, but I have met the female version.

[Seeing the eyebrow, Jamie grimaces slightly.] I meant more that you'd not have met him since he's not on the Plane.

[Okay, and there's the fact that Jamie thinks of Two as his Doctor even though he's accepted the reality of other Doctors, but that's a whole other matter.]

I'd not meant to snap at you about it. I'm sorry.

[Sirius smiles a bit] It's alright. I'm feeling rather snappy myself, considering. I'd offer you a drink, but I just got over a nasty hangover myself...

Aye, well....would a drink not help your hangover, though? [Because he's beginning to think having one might not be such a bad plan, all things considered.

[Remus, as he often does, appears in front of the mansion, and gets an earful immediately; he stares in bemused shock for a moment, before the words truly register, and he realises just why this woman looks so familiar]

....Sirius?

[Sirius is just going to blush now, and curse under his breath] Yeah, it's me. Someone around here's got terrible taste when it comes to pranks...

[he can't help the amusement quirking his lips] You make a lovely woman, if it helps at all.

[that is not helping the blushing, Remus :|] Maybe a little...I'd rather have my own body back, though, even if it wasn't all that lovely.

[glances down as his smile softens] I never said that.

[he shrugs awkwardly] It's true, though, isn't it? Too skinny to be pretty these days.

Oh, are you a New Woman? I can't ever picture Julia offering free rooms. Mummy would positively kill her with saintliness. If you look so cross, your face shall get stuck that way.

[Sirius still looks cross, because he is stubborn that way] Considering I've only been a woman since I woke up this morning, I'd say I'm definitely a new woman.

[Sebastian is a bit surprised] Can they do that now?

If by "they" you mean Meredith or the Twins, I wouldn't be surprised...especially considering it's not just me who's changed. Seems anything's possible around here.

[one eyebrow shoots up and it takes a bit for Inara to keep her expression schooled, rather than laughing]

Is something the matter?
