That's definitely a comet up there.

Time for an emergency meeting in the TARDIS, I should think. If you know what and where that is, you're invited.

[the feed clicks on and, for a second, it's so quiet it sounds like it might be an accidental recording - then amy's distinct scottish brogue comes hissing in from the silence in a peevish whisper.]

Rory where are you!! You've been gone for almost an hour! If I'd known they were going to make you weave the diapers yourself I would've--

[the waspish tirade comes to an abrupt halt as she is interrupted by a whimpering, and then the full-blown wailing of a fussy infant. her voice, sliding back into its normal pitch, is all melting concern:]

Shhhhhh, sshhhh Melody... I wasn't really shouting at him, nobody's fighting! Shhhhh, sweetheart... how about a smile for your big old milk-thing, yeah? .... Please?

[baby mels doesn't seem to be biting. the tiredness in amy's voice seems to bleed through the cheer.]

Come on..... pleeeeease be quiet? Everything's all right, daddy will be home soon... Hopefully with a nice, biiiig bottle of valium....

If I am being honest, and I see no reason not to be, right now at least, I am rather surprised this never happened sooner. Given what we do, of course people think us to be fictional. Sometimes I think we are fictional. If you really think about it, it is all quite absurd. It's a wonder they did not just through us into some nice white rooms.

If this is an attempt to blackmail, kidnap or otherwise involve me in nefarious schemes or plots, you really did pick the wrong man. The chances of anyone actually coming to retrieve me are slim, and if they did choose to do so, you would very much regret the decision. That is not a threat, either. You would do well to stay on the good side of my coworkers. As for my cooperation? I think I made abundantly clear how willing I was to play into your fantasies during the 'interview'.

Drop me back off in Cardiff and we can pretend this never happened.

[In case you missed it. Warning: NSFW in Threads with Jack]

[A man with an extremely short haircut, big ears, and a leather jacket is standing in the middle of the sidewalk in the financial district, looking up at a security camera and pointing a little blue blinky light on a stick at it. While he doesn't look familiar, the blinky thing might. When he speaks, his accent strongly suggests to any British listeners that he's from the north somewhere.]

Hello! Just hijacking your network signal for a moment, terribly rude I know, never mind that.

[He glances around a moment.]

In any case, just a lost traveler here, noting that this lovely little island of yours doesn't much seem to resemble Wales. Not that that's a fault! But I was expecting to be in Cardiff about now, so if anyone can point helpfully in a useful direction, I'll just be on my way.

[He glances around, looks briefly a bit more suspicious, then smiles back at the camera.]

For that matter, if anybody's noticed a big blue box loafing about on a corner like it belonged there, I seem to have misplaced one. Love to find it before I have to go.

Ta then!

Not to sound too much like a friend of ours but..

I could get used to this.

Well. Here we are then, I suppose. Not a big surprise, knew we would be after Amy bumped into herself next March, but I didn't think it would be over that quickly.

Oh well. Still, we had a great day, didn't we?

[This noise is the first thing you hear. After that, the Doctor's voice, quietly awed, cuts in.]

Ohhh, there you are! Good girl!

Donna! Amy! Rory! Jack! Jenny! Launch time, ten minutes!

Eridan. Yosuke. can I interest either of you in a brief jaunt elsewhere?

I need everyone's Christmas list. If you don't tell me what you want for a gift, you're not goin to get anything, pretty obvious there.

It's awful nice of the place to provide some welfare for the folk I'm still not sure they're not straight kidnapping, but this is makin me so frugal even Switzerland would think me a skinflint! Word of mouth seems to be the faster way to get news in this place, and I ain't found classifieds, so how about someone let me know anyone hirin?

I got a few hundred years of experience in just about anything, and great references! Not that they mean much if you ain't from my kinda Earth, but with the place bein like it is, I'm sure that ain't a big deal, huh? ❤

Today's my birthday!

This is all working out very well so far! It's going to be almost a shame to switch back, however or whenever that works itself out.

Really the only problem is that after all of this, I'm still not ginger.

I'm starting to believe it's never going to happen.

You know, I could really get used to this.

I mean, there are ethical concerns, and of course I won't really be staying, but I've had far worse bodies in the past.  And as new skill-sets go, this one is probably a little more applicable than being fit enough to try Venusian Aikido out.

Well.  Let's have some fun while this lasts.  If by "fun," you mean "let's see how much I can accomplish," which I generally don't.

This is wizard.

what the fuck is this

I can't believe you leveled the whole office & missed that ugly shitty curtain.

It doesn't even got a tear on it.

Good to see someone on this island has a sense of humor.

Seriously, where can a girl get a bow and arrows around here? 

just cos I'm gonna go somewhere doesn't mean you can move stuff around the room either.

It's gotta stay in the square.
