[the Brig arrives on the Astral Plane, looking just a tad bit roughed up] Oh, of all the...


Someone do please remind me not to attempt to break up fights with soldiers possessing horns. I almost found myself impaled.

Sounds...

...complex.

I try not to get too involved in that. I handle the military branch, and military is the same just about everywhere.

[contract_star]

Ah, that's fortunate then. It's good to have something familiar around. I think I remember you saying that it's not your home world?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

No, it isn't. I'm from Kent. [added as an afterthought] ...Earth. HQ is in London.

[contract_star]

England. The Doctor does seem to favor England. You traveled with him, right?

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

Not prior to this, actually. He worked for me as my scientific adviser.

[contract_star]

Ah, I see. His information is probably invaluable.

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

Precisely.

[a pause]

Though half the time I haven't the faintest idea what he goes on about.

[contract_star]

[Chuckles.] That seems to be the case whenever the Doctor is concerned. I can't imagine what having thirteen of him around must be like.

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

Think of thirteen of the most brilliant minds in the universe, along with their various assistants, all in one place and bickering with each other.

[contract_star]

[Imagines it and bursts out laughing.]

The Doctor does seem like the type who wouldn't exactly get along with himself.

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

His second and third particularly go at it.

[contract_star]

Then I guess it's good neither of them are here. I haven't yet seen the Doctors here fight, but then, I don't think they actually talk much.

Which is rather lucky for the lot of us, Mr. Shengshun.
