001--Jenny, I've got your number

Right, well, this is strange. Not the strangest thing I've ever seen, but still pretty strange. Still, though, when in Rome, right?
Except there are no Romans to when in Rome with. Makes it sort of hard to follow that one.

Anyway! What is this? It looks like sort of...nothing, except...is that a beach? A beach. In the middle of empty space.

Still. Not the weirdest thing I've seen. Hacking around the rainforest as long I've been doing, and not too much surprises you anymore. I'm not sleeping in trees anymore, though, that's for sure. I think that bat thing was after my blood. Looked like it, anyway.

Cute name. You're still a plod, though. What're you doing in trees?

[lotsofrunning.livejournal.com]

Hiking across the jungle.

What's a plod?

[theguv.livejournal.com]

Right. Now explain why.

[Gene Hunt grows tired of people not knowing his vocab] A bird. A skirt. A tart. Girlie, woman, fairer sex.

I'm trying to get from one city to another, and the only way to do that in Cololuan is either take a shuttle or hike across the jungle. And I wanted to see the sights, and find some people on my way across, so I decided to go for the scenic route.

Oh! A woman. Got it.

The hell is Cololuan?

Yeah, a bird. [quirks a brow] Aren't you a bit too pretty to be out in the woods? You're gonna break a nail or something.

The planet I'm on right now. Nice place, really, once you get past the man-eating bats.

Why would that matter?

Cause girlies shouldn't be climbing trees, they should be looking pretty for their men.

[lotsofrunning.livejournal.com]

I've never heard that one before.

[theguv.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well. Now you have.

[lotsofrunning.livejournal.com]

I think I prefer running through the jungle.

[theguv.livejournal.com]

Until you break an ankle. Then what are you gonna do?

[lotsofrunning.livejournal.com]

Fix it?

[theguv.livejournal.com]

[if Gene Hunt facepalmed, he'd be doing it now] Listen. Girlies like you don't belong in forests, running around like boys. Take up a better hobby.

[lotsofrunning.livejournal.com]

I like this one.

[theguv.livejournal.com]

You're gonna get yourself killed and that would be a right waste of a pretty face.

[lotsofrunning.livejournal.com]

I won't get myself killed. Don't worry about that.
