014- [Video]

[missrosetyler]

[The screen comes on to reveal Rose wandering around the Xanadu. There's a sheet of paper in her hand, as she takes in her surroundings. Not far off ahead is the cherry tree.]

Don't see that every day.

[Her attention is drawn to the sheet of paper in her hand, as she studies the numbers.] Right then. Should be...

[She starts to walk but then suddenly stops tensing. Her head slowly turns left then right cautiously.]

Who's there? Come on now!

[Her focus is back on the tree and she starts to walk towards it.]

No use in hiding you know.

[Again she stops.]

This is getting ridiculous. It's not funny.

[She approaches the tree and looks behind it to find no one.]

[seconddoctor_cia]

I say, did you lose something?

[missrosetyler]

You. You. But not you.

That's not you isn't it?

[seconddoctor_cia]

What isn't?

video;

[missrosetyler]

You.

[She turns around at the sound of something.]

...What was that?

Re: video;

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Looks around.]

Was what? Oh dear, oh dear, I don't think this is going to get me anywhere.

[Back to Rose.]

Is something the matter with me? Other than the obvious that is.

Re: video;

[missrosetyler]

That's noise. Cut it out. It's not funny.

[Rose focuses back on the Doctor.]

You've had to have seen it, yeah? Right? That noise! Noises everywhere...

Not bloody right. Well I'm not scared.

[Aside from her expression giving away the obvious.]

Re: video;

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Looks relieved.]

Oh, thank heavens.

Re: video;

[missrosetyler]

Is that all you've got to say?

[Rose walks around the tree but turning her head sharply.]

Stop hiding.

Re: video;

[seconddoctor_cia]

It's just that either somebody is watching me or I'm going mad--and I'm quite certain I'm not. I think someone is watching us both Miss Tyler. I've been wandering around for ages and I'm fairly certain someone is playing some twisted game with us.

[Looks around.]

I herd something. I know I did.

Re: video;

[missrosetyler]

You get that feeling too, Doctor?

[She makes a face as it is still odd for her.]

It's not a very funny or fun game. Why do they have to mumble.

Re: video;

[seconddoctor_cia]

I'm not sure. Do you have any ideas on who it could be? You've been here longer than I have.

[Johanna is SO AMUSED by this curse!]

Don't forget to look up.

Re: [video]

[missrosetyler]

What? Who's there?

[Rose looks up completely NOT AMUSED.]

Do you happen you know who is this doing?

[video]

[not_like_the_rest]

Oh yes, it's the shadow men. [SO AMUSING.]

Re: [video]

[missrosetyler]

Shadow men?

[She looks alarmed looking all around her.]

Not funny. It's not--Shut up! Show yourselves!

[video]

[not_like_the_rest]

[It totally is funny! Key words totally apply.]

Oh, you just missed one! Have to be quicker than that.

Re: [video]

[missrosetyler]

What? Where?

[She looks around frantically.]

[video]

[not_like_the_rest]

[Okay, Johanna can't help it anymore, she's just going to laugh right now.]

Re: [video]

[missrosetyler]

What's so funny? Don't you hear them too?

[video]

[not_like_the_rest]

Oh yeah. It's getting louder too. You should run!

Re: [video]

[missrosetyler]

Where would you recommend?

video;

[bookbending]

Rose? Are you looking for the man with the ship?

[The one who may or may not really exist. Jinora isn't completely convinced that Rose isn't a little crazy.]

Re: video;

[missrosetyler]

Jinora? Hey. No, no. He's gone now. Completely. Probably for good.

[She looks left and right for shadowmen.]

These are different people. Fast ones too.

How have you been?

video;

[bookbending]

Oh... sorry. I hope he surprises you by coming back.

I'm good! My dad came to the City, and so did some other people from home... [The girl squints at the screen, trying very hard to see whatever it is that Rose is seeing.] It looks like your alone to me.

Re: video;

[missrosetyler]

Maybe. It's fine, really.

[Rose gives a bit of a smile.]

That's just brilliant! See didn't I tell you? Blimey reckon that's a bit like Christmas. How are they finding the City?

[Rose looks sharply left then right.]

Dunno. I just feel like someone's out there you know?
