[One would think spending one second in a space ship and another in a zoo would rattle a person. However, when Jenny lands on the ground with a thump, she isn't necessarily rattled. No, she's excited.] Hello, what's this?

[She picks up the device next to her and studies it for a brief moment before looking up excitedly at the massive creature in front of her. An elephant, not that she knows that.] Oh hello, what are you? [Getting to her feet, she reaches out to gently pet the trunk of the beast.] Trapped here in a cage, like me? Doesn't seem fair.

[It takes her no time at all to work out the device in her hand, the video coming to life. She smiles excitedly into the screen. The elephants trunk can be seen inspecting her hair, her shoulder, her face. She doesn't seem to mind it one bit.] Excuse me. I found your cages. And while I understand the necessity of them given certain situations, I must insist that you allow the more harmless creatures their freedom. It doesn't seem ri- [The elephant's trunk pokes her in the side and she laughs and looks up to him in response.] Oh, that tickles!

[The most massive double take in the universe, followed by a staggeringly stunning display of eloquence.]

What?

J-

What?

[Because he's seen her before, here, but only on one of those special times when people were seeing people, and even then he wasn't sure if she was... Well, still alive or not. But nevermind, there are more important questions.]

Are you inside the elephant cage?

[generated_anomaly]

[Her eyes grow wide and excited at the familiar voice and image on the video. Not only because it's her dad, but also because he would surely be for freeing this poor creature, the poor creature being the elephant and not her.]

Hello dad! Yes, it would seem I am in the cage. Is that what this beast is called? An elephant? Lovely name, don't you think.

[Of course now the trunk of the elephant is swishing her pony tail back and forth.]

'Least you didn't end up in the cage with the unicorn.

[There's grinning though because this person isn't freaking out and demanding to be returned home.]

[Jenny smiles back, her look questioning and still amused with the entire situation. Really, her perspective does not resemble the perspective of most people.]

Are unicorns dangerous? It would be a somewhat different scenario to be caged in with a dangerous creature. Although sometimes danger can be entertaining, I think... and productive.

[am_i_being_rude]

[Whoops. Normally, yes, he's quite against cages and such, but there are exceptions. Sometimes they aren't necessarily a bad thing.]

Well at least I know exactly where you are then. I'll be there in a bit. [She made friends quite fast. He's quite happy about that.] It's quite fun to say, isn't it? Elephant. Somehow it suits them, though it's hard to say precisely why.

[iwasherefirst]

Think this one charges people and with four legs 'steada two it tends to run faster.

[Dean regards the video with a bit of a disbelieving smirk.]

Careful you don't step in the elephant shit.

[generated_anomaly]

[He's really going to have to explain to her why this seemingly peaceful giant of a creature belongs in a cage once he gets there. Poor Doctor.]

Elephant is very much an appropriate name for them. But perhaps that is their species name and this elephant has an actual name such as Jenny or Donna or Martha...

[Her look turns thoughtful and she looks back and down] Or maybe he's a boy elephant. Are you a Donna or a Don? [She's very interested in names since she has one herself.]

Video

[generated_anomaly]

It charges people? As in it attacks them? [Surprised and horrified, of course. And that look turns to one of determination.]

Well then, if people are in danger it's very good that I was brought here. I do quite a bit of running about, saving people and civilizations and such. [The words are so familiar to her since she's repeated them so often over and over in her mind by now.]

Video

[generated_anomaly]

Shit?

[Ohhh if her daddy(s) learns that you're teaching her to curse, you're gonna be in trouble, Dean. But she really does look confused. That obviously isn't a word that was programmed into her. Weird that it isn't though. In the heat of battle, people deserve to curse.

She's looking all around now.] Where is it? What does it look like?

Video

[iwasherefirst]

Yeah. It attacked my boyfriend a while ago.

[Oooh determination is good.] Yeah? Know a few people like that here. Used to it back home too.

[am_i_being_rude]

[I think there are a lot of things he will cheerfully allow his other self(-ves) to assume the proper role and explain. Or he might get territorial. He's not decided yet.]

If you can get it to tell you its actual name then you've got quite a way with words. I don't think they normally go around having conversations like that.

[Educating young people in the finer things in life everywhere]

A giant, steaming pile of crap. Probably brown or green?

[generated_anomaly]

My way with words is in a state of constant flux. I keep learning new things! I like learning new things.

[And now down to business.] Are you here to save these creatures from imprisonment? Or is there some greater threat? I know I could be of some help. You could take me with you like we had planned.

Video

[generated_anomaly]

Just out of the blue, attacked him? Oh yes, I could see why that unicorn might need to be locked away.

[She rests a hand on the elephant trunk that's now resting over her shoulder.] Did you know that this is an elephant? I'm not sure whether he has a name or not though. He doesn't seem to simply attack people without cause though... or she.

Video

[generated_anomaly]

Crap? Do you mean feces? Oh.

[Now she's looking down and around her feet. But when she looks back up at the screen, it's with an excited smile of accomplishment as if she'd just done the most brilliant thing.]

I haven't stepped in any. But thanks for the warning!

[am_i_being_rude]

Good! Day you stop learning, might as well stop everything. It's really just not worth it after that, I think.

[...About that.] I'm not totally su-- yeah, you could say there's a bigger issue at the moment. I'm here - well, there's two of me here, actually, which has been... fun. And Donna! You remember Donna - helped name you and all.

Video

[iwasherefirst]

Yup. Just outta the blue. [Let's be honest, the Doctor probably provoked it or annoyed it or something'ed it.]

Yeah. You don't have elephants where you're from? I think they're usually fairly calm 'less they feel threatened. Haven't studied 'em much though.

Video

[dudeimbatman]

Yup. That's what I mean.

[He chuckles a bit.] Welcome. I'm Dean Winchester.

[generated_anomaly]

[The idea of the bigger issue, something she could help her dad out with, spikes her interest. Her eyes take on an excited light that quickly turns to an interested confusion when he mentions a duplicate of himself. Of course then she's side-tracked by Donna.]

Donna! I remember Donna. She's still traveling about with you fighting terrible creatures and saving things? I think that's fantastic. I liked her. And since she's here I suppose I like her as well.

[There's a pause for breath but because she can't help but ask...] There's another you here? Does that mean I have two dads?

Video

[generated_anomaly]

[Jenny is thinking that there had to have been some provocation unless the animal was just hungry, in which case the people in charge of the cages are starving their animals. This thought process is why she asks the legit question:] Did it try to eat him?

[Because if it did, that would explain why it attacked. Her boyfriend had been food.] It's not fun being unicorn food, I'd imagine. Your boyfriend should carry a weapon of some sort when entering their cages.

Video

[generated_anomaly]

Dean Winchester! What a lovely name. Lots of syllables and very long. Dean Winchester. Two words. I like it very much!

[She's very interested in names, of course. Since she actually has one. And she says her own with a bit of pride even if she was only ever given one instead of two like this man.]

I'm Jenny. Just Jenny.

[am_i_being_rude]

[The side-tracking was entirely the point so he's quite glad that worked. Young ones are a bit easier to distract, on the whole.] She's here, yeah. Few other people I suppose you'll get to meet as well. Actually some that I met when I got here.

[He absolutely makes a face at the 'two dads' thing. Still not sure how to feel about that.] Technically I suppose it does, yeah. Have to see how he feels about that.

Video

[dudeimbatman]

Just Jenny. Nice to meet you.

Someone getting you out of that elephant cage?

[leathered]

--Did you just call him Dad? Him? That man there with the hair?

[ This man here looks terribly excited or horrified, rather like he hasn't decided which. ]
