[The image on the screen shows the (Second) Doctor out in the snow by a playground. He’s decided to take advantage of the sudden snowfall to throw on his old fur coat and build snowmen. Or at least his version of them. The one he’s working on looks a lot like a Dalek with a plunger and a bent-up wire hanger for the arms. He tops it with two cans on the dome-shaped head.]

Now what can I use for the eye-stalk? Ah!

[Spots a broken piece of a cane with a rubber tip amongst some rubbish, and jams it right in the dome.]

I suppose it’ll do.

[reallygreathair]

Ohhhh I remember that coat!

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Looks at the newcomer.]

You should, I imagine.

[Rolls up a snowball and places it firmly on the bottom part of the snow-Dalek.]

[reallygreathair]

[For now the Doctor chooses to observe his other self.]

You know I might have some bits and bobs back in the TARDIS if you need anymore spare parts.

[seconddoctor_cia]

Oh no. I like to let be creative with what I can find.

[Continues placing snowballs.]

Aren't you cold like that? I mean, you don't appear to have an ounce of body fat.

[reallygreathair]

Right! We're still in that creative phase.

Me? Nah.

[He shrugs his shoulders.]

Cold never bothers me. I can't believe it. Actual snow!

[He beams enthusiastically watching as a snow flurry falls against the palm of his hand.]

This is just brilliant.

[seconddoctor_cia]

I suppose it is. Have you seen our young friend lately?

[reallygreathair]

Young friend? Welllll...

[He looks over at a small pile of snow and walks over to it.]

You know we could probably making a Weeping Angel out of this. Bit of a scary lot.

[seconddoctor_cia]

I was thinking an Ice Warrior. More appropriate.

[Looks around to make sure no one's watching.]

Actually, I've been meaning to talk with you for a while.

[reallygreathair]

[He looks around trying to see what he can source for a base.]

Ohhh that's even better. Brilliant idea!

[He looks over at his other self.]

Ohhh? Tell me you've found an exit.

[seconddoctor_cia]

I wish I had. No. However, something found me recently.

[Looks a little pale, and it's not from the cold.]

[reallygreathair]

[He notices.]

Ohhh? What?

[seconddoctor_cia]

What do you know about, the Moment?

[reallygreathair]

[The question causes his demeanor to completely change. How would he...]

What?

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Looks exasperated.]

Oh come now. I know about the Time Lords' dirty little stockpile and I've heard of it. What do you know about it, because it implied that...

[Hands wave around a bit before be blows on them to keep them warm.]

[reallygreathair]

It!? It?

[He gives himself a look.]

There's no, it. It can't imply anything.

[seconddoctor_cia]

Oh there is an it. It took form. Most Time Lord science is sentient so why shouldn't the Moment be? Remember the Hand of Omega?

[reallygreathair]

Wellll because it shouldn't be! It's a weapon. Nothing more. Yes, hard to forget that one.

[seconddoctor_cia]

Well, not the weapon itself. More like the interface. It took on a unique form. One we're both familiar with.

[reallygreathair]

There is no interface. That was not real!

[His voice is louder now. Can we say denial 10? Oh yes we can.]

[seconddoctor_cia]

It was very real, and it looked like Rose!

[Realizes what his other self just said.]

What do you mean "that was not real"?

[valentineluke]

What are you going to build next, Doctor Query?

[reallygreathair]

That was just an event.

[But hang on how can they have the same event?]

It wasn't Rose.

[seconddoctor_cia]

Oh. Well, I was thinking perhaps an Ice Warrior. Or maybe something else. I haven't really decided.

[seconddoctor_cia]

It certainly wasn't, no. Hang on, you've seen her too?

[reallygreathair]

Briefly.

[He crouches down and starts to gather a pile of snow.]
