First Leap (Video)

[Honestly, for someone who's just been uprooted from her universe and told she's fictional...Rose looks a little bit bored when her image pops up on screen. She's got her chin propped on her hand, and she's squinting at the camera as if she can see right through it to the other side.] I s'pose this place gets points for being original, at least. I've been kidnapped and told I hallucinated things before...but figment of someone's imagination? Haven't tried that one yet. It's reassuring to know people aren't running out of creativity, huh? [After a moment, her expression melds into a tiny, amused grin, and she wiggles the fingers of the palm supporting her chin.] So, I'm guessing I'm not the first person to get that welcome? How many of us are here? Is there anyone willing to catch me up on what we've got figured out about this place yet? I've got a little bit of practice with big words, if that helps.

[She straightens up suddenly, dropping her hand to the table.] Right, first thing's first, though. My name's Rose, I'm from Earth, two thousand and...something. Twelve or thirteen, I think. [She squints again, and shakes her head, waving a hand.] Gets a little bit vague sometimes, doesn't it? [When you time travel.] Especially around the New Year, yeah? [Annndddd a grin!] Sorry, no, hang on to that explanation a moment. More important question: have we got any chippies here? Cos I'm starved.

I meant the month, is all. Can't ever guarantee the year across realities.

Of course not. I think it's 2012 here, though, if that helps any.

[Jack smiles brightly into the camera.] I'll let you get settled in, and then we're going out for a drink. Actually, we should bring everyone. We've got some of The Doctor's future companions here as well and.. [He pauses, deciding that he doesn't know when she's from, exactly.] Have you met Miss Donna Noble?

A little bit behind still, then.

[She smiles back through the camera.] Yeah, I know her. This thing's crossing timelines, then? So, had you?

[chronosexual]

Well, just the once before I came here. Last time I saw you, actually. Had some adventures of my own, alien invasions, all the usual fare. And my very own branch of Torchwood. You'd be so proud.
