Everyone just needs to stop dying. [ Amy sounds angry more than anything, but it's mostly a defense mechanism. Deep breaths, and then she continues, a little more calmly. ]

Look, I know they look like pepper potts and pretty useless but seriously. They're dangerous, okay. Believe me on that one.

So. Unless you're actually invincible, just run away. Don't play the hero and for God's sake, don't die.


[ Yeah, so I just posted a hiatus, but— it's Daleks and Bucky died, I couldn't not post. I'll be around today, but after that, well, I hope you're all okay with backtags ;; ]

Machine try kill. Me no die, take machine - Heh-heh!

[waitedforyears]

Yeah? Well, that works to. Guess that puts you in the invincible category. [ A beat. ] Wait, so you're in a Dalek?

[he_who_kills]

Yes, me take! Is mine!

[waitedforyears]

So long as you don't start shooting people.

Pond? [ Eleven's been speaking to Howard, so he knows what's got her so worked up. His heart goes out to her, but he yet again has no way to make this better. ]

Come on, I think I've found something useful.

[waitedforyears]

[ Clenched jaw, but she's turning around to go look. ] Yeah? What is it?

[wearafeznow]

A safe house, it's hidden well enough.

[ They're bunkered down in behind a park wall, and it's not precisely safe but the Dalek's haven't gotten this far yet. If only he had the TARDIS, if only he could help. ]

[ Pepper's voice is frantic and confused. ]

They look nothing like me! Why do people keep saying that?

Voice

[waitedforyears]

What are you even talking about.

Voice > Video

[threeolives]

Everyone keeps saying these things look like me!

[ She switches to video. ]

As you can see, I am not a crazy flying death robot!

[child_radical]

The note of most modern arms being useless against them should be added to the warning.

[waitedforyears]

Yeah? What've you tried?

[child_radical]

I learned explosions just do nothing but make them angrier.

[ Elena has a chair under her door handle. Just in case. And a knife. And she's just sitting on her couch. ]

What are they?

voice.

[waitedforyears]

[ Sounds safe enough. Except Daleks can just exterminate the door.... ]

Daleks. Not so friendly little pepper pots.

voice.

[rehashing]

Pepper pots?

[iwasherefirst]

I've got an extra gun that'll work on 'em if you want it.

[waitedforyears]

Yeah, I want it. [ A beat. ] We found a pretty well-defendable place they haven't got to yet in Xanadu. Might be a good safe place to drop people.

[iwasherefirst]

I'll swing by and hand it off, try to point people there.

[skintoskin]

What the fuck are they?

voice only;

[waitedforyears]

Called Daleks, and they're dangerous.

voice only;

[skintoskin]

If they're called 'daleks', then why did you call them 'pepper pots', whatever the hell those are?

voice;

[leathered]

You take care yourself, all right?

voice;

[waitedforyears]

I'll be fine.

[leathered]

Least you know to run. The announcement will probably help the rest.
