[A boy in a school uniform with flaming red hair is on the network screen. Except there is something a little older than that about him, a hardness behind his eyes. He’s currently slouched on a park bench near the fountain, arms crossed and looking decidedly pouty as he glares into the camera.]

Doctor, if this is a joke it’s not one I’m laughing at. And if Tegan put you up to it I am very disappointed in you both. And warn her to start hiding her shampoo again.

[Clearly done with this conversation, he rolls over onto his back and lies down on the bench. He’s so thin and wiry, he practically disappears at this angle.]

Oh, and whoever designed these-

[He waves his hand towards the device recording.]

Give them a better soundcard.

'Doctor'...who?

[rudeandginger]

The Doctor. He's rather hard to miss.

[valentineluke]

Wonderful. Yet another to add to Mr. Saxon's nemesis list.

'He' is here in a trio I've nicknamed 'Ten', 'Smith', and 'Leather' to lessen confusion.


(OOC - Luke is a friend of The Master's aka Saxon version. He's keeping tabs on Doc&Co in case Master returns.)

[rudeandginger]

Don't tell me he's bumped into his regenerations again, the fool.

I'm looking for the blond one wearing a vegetable. We're not on Gallifrey, are we? It's just that I just came from there and I'm not keen on repeating the experience.

[valentineluke]

City collects from countless worlds and timelines.

This place has no actual name other than 'City'. As for your Doctor, none in the trio fit the description.

I could fix that--your soundcard.

[rudeandginger]

There's no point, I'm not staying long. It's just rubbish to put something on the market of that ridiculous quality. A toddler could build it.

[candothat]

"Not staying long," of course.

[That's what they all say.]

Is technology more advanced in your world?

[rudeandginger]

What world are we on now?

[Honestly, Jack is a bit worried when he spots the man just lying on that park bench. People don't usually do that unless they've got a good reason for it, do they?]

Hey, uh... Are you okay, mister?

action;

[rudeandginger]

Hardly. I seem to have been abandoned by my traveling companions.

[One ice-blue eye slowly cracks open and fixes Jack with a hard look.]

Who are you?

[wouldnotkindly]

Are you sure they didn't just get lost? [Not yet realizing that this guy might be a new arrival.] This city is pretty big.

Oh, uh— I'm Jack. [He offers him a hand.]

action;

[rudeandginger]

I've seen bigger.

[Turlough sits up at last, but keeps his arms crossed over his chest.]

Turlough.

[ This place, seriously. If people don't stop coming in and out of it. ]

You go see the deities to complain about the sound in the devices, I want to see it. Far as I can tell though, really not a joke.

[rudeandginger]

Deities? Don't tell me I've landed on some backwater planet who worships anything that falls out of the sky. I've had quite enough of those, thank you.

[am_i_being_rude]

Technically you haven't actually landed on a planet at all. More of a, pocket dimension. Quite independent of those pesky constraints like temporal passage and natural laws of being. Why, what planets have you been to?

[rudeandginger]

Don't tell me this is like the Death Zone again. Because the Doctor told us he would take more care not to get us scooped out of time again. It was very inconvenient.

[eagleofautozam]

You should be able to upgrade the soundcard. Parts like that are easy enough to find here.

[A beat. ]

Why would you hide shampoo?

[Video]

[rudeandginger]

Obviously you don't have much of an imagination.

[Video]

[eagleofautozam]

If you don't want to say then I won't pry. I will just welcome you to the City since you clearly just arrived.

I am Eagle Vision of Autozam.

[rudeandginger]

Is that your real name?

[Rose is working, listening to the network more than anything when she hears the Doctor's name. That gets her attention. She flicks her video device on and leans over to look in it. Seriously. How many companions did this man need? And gingers at that. She smiles though.]

Don't know who Tegan is, but I know the Doctor.

never the latest

[rudeandginger]

Really? Where is he?

[iwasherefirst]

Work maybe? City Solutions. Could be at the flat. I'll have a peek if you like.

Which one did you know? We've got the one with the jacket, the hair and the bowtie here.

[rudeandginger]

Blond. Wearing a cricket uniform.
