[ The video clicks on to reveal two familiar faces: the City is, once again +1 Scottish redhead and +1 floppy-haired bow-tied Doctor. Even if said Doctor is currently hiding the floppy hair under a sombrero.

They're both grinning wildly. ]

Do you want to do the honours? I think you should.

[ The Doctor looks pleased, taking a deep breath and then he is doing a truly remarkable impression of a drum roll. While Amy is not giggling. Really. ]

Guess what, City? We're back. Did you miss us?

[ A beat. ] You better have. Roll call, who's here? Barnes, you better not have left while I was gone or I will confiscate all your alcohol.

[wearafeznow]

Ah, both wonderful girls.

[skintoskin]

They seem nice, yeah.

So, how old are you?

[wearafeznow]

Nine hundred and something. It's rather difficult to keep track when you're hopping about.

And you?

[skintoskin]

You've got a few years on me, Doc. I'm only eighteen.

[wearafeznow]

More than a few, I'd reckon.

How are you finding the City?

[skintoskin]

Yeah, you're old. I've heard.

[He shrugs.]

Meh. The City's still here, I'm still here, the ticking clock is still here.

[wearafeznow]

I've never quite gotten used to the clock.

[skintoskin]

Me, either.

I remember thinking I might go under the City, to see if there was a way to shut the clock down...

[wearafeznow]

It's underneath the City?

[skintoskin]

I dunno. Something about a way to get to tunnels under the city and that there's creatures down there or... something. I've never gone down.

[wearafeznow]

Oooh, a creature? [ He needs to look into that. ]

[skintoskin]

Well, alligators, at least, and I got the impression there were nastier things down there, too.

[wearafeznow]

I'll have to have a look. See what I can see.

[skintoskin]

Can I come with you?

[wearafeznow]

It could be dangerous.

[skintoskin]

And?

[wearafeznow]

Oh, all right then. But don't wander off.

[skintoskin]

Why would I wander off?





[ooc: Ahhh! This adventure should happen, lol!]

[verylast]

Because you humans always do.

[ ooc: we could have a log now the Doctor's back in the City? ]

[skintoskin]

We do? Have you taken a survey or something?



[ooc: Yes, please! :) With or without Amy?]

[verylast]

I've traveled a lot, had a number of companions and it's always the same. You can never stay put for very long.

[ ooc: Amy's being canon updated but we can wait for her to arrive back in if you want. If not we could do one this weekend. ]

[skintoskin]

Maybe we get bored easily.


[ooc: I'm fine, either way. I'll likely be spotty about tagging, due to RL on weekends, in particular, but I'd tag as I could. :)]

[verylast]

But it's not boring, it's safe.

( ooc: shall we just do one between us so it's easier to keep track of who's tag it is and we can go slow? )

[skintoskin]

Work with me here, Doc. Safe is boring.


[ooc: Sounds good to me, yay!]

[verylast]

[ Pause. ]

Well, yes. You're right.

( ooc: do you want me to set us up a log post? )
