[there is a new building on the Plane! or, rather, a room--from the TARDIS, to be exact. Oliver has propped its door open with an oddly-shaped metal canister, allowing the Plane's residents to see that the room basically consists of an outside ledge around a giant ball pit. yes, a ball pit--filled to the brim with shiny, multicolored, hollow plastic balls]
[Oliver is standing in the doorway of the room, looking nervous but hopeful, and holding a gun] I figured we could use a break after, you know, everything. And I... [his expression slips slightly, but only for an instant] Well. I want everybody to have a chance for some fun. I wasn't sure I'd be able to get it all here, but it worked!
And this might make things even more interesting. Watch! [grinning, he turns to face into the room. first, he fires the gun at the ceiling, creating an oval outlined in blue. then he fires again, into the corner of the pit this time. anyone watching can now just see the edges of an orange oval in the pit. there are now two ovals rather like these. the balls around the orange one are pouring into it--only to reappear falling out of the blue hole in the ceiling. this is creating a sort of ball waterfall, which due to momentum is causing lots of flying balls as well. a few even go rolling out the doorway]
What do you think? Jump in!

Watch where you're aiming that! You could've done for me, you know!

[but he continues in a lighter tone] Besides, from what I can tell, this device creates portals of a certain height and width, and if I fired that at you, you would be utterly consumed. But! It needs an anchor, hence the glowing blue and orange edges and if I fired this at any old target that didn't provide that anchorage, it wouldn't stay.
So basically, I could fire this at you and nothing would happen. Well, in theory.

So. Want to see how fast we can get these balls moving? [his eyes twinkle with mischief as he eagerly shifts for side to side]

[he raises an eyebrow at that] Long as we're not in the room when we do it.

Right, here's what we're going to do! Grab a couple of those balls and when I say "go", drop them into this one and step back. We should be fine for this part.

[he's grinning widely now, already scooping up balls for the test]

Go! [he lets his two go]

All right! Let's get beyond the doorway there--[taps Oliver's arm and starts jogging towards said doorway]--and when you're ready, aim the portal that's on the ceiling anywhere you want!
