- 1 - A man can be judged by the quality of his enemies.

[The Doctor is about to exit the TARDIS into what he thinks is the warehouse in Shad Thames. Except for a nanosecond it's just far too bright, the light is all wrong and it's blinding him, he thinks he's going to miss-step or fall and... That's quickly gone and it's definitely not a dingy warehouse that he has stepped into.] 

What?

[Scuffle of feet as he whirls around. Yep, TARDIS is there. More scuffling, whirling around, surveying the scene...] 

What?! Where is this place? Now, that's just not right and- Hello. What are you doing? [Footsteps and he picks up the open journal from the dresser.] Oh! Now that's very clever! Feels and smells like paper and leather yet effectively transcribing my every spoken word. How is it achieved I wonder?

[Muttered...] Far too clever for this to be any of the Dalek's doing... As well as completely beyond their technology. Time scoop? Possible, but I would have seen that coming. Black Guardian? The Eternals! Ah, that feels more like it, this has their hallmark all over it. Oh no. Where are Tegan and Turlough?

Oh look, this journal caught all that as well, a nice record all in my own hand. [There's the sound of pages being flipped.]  Hmm. Lots of other different hands as well... That can't bode well...

[Journal open in hand he cautiously leaves the room but not before suspiciously noting that 2109 has his name on its plate.]  

Hello? Anyone there? Pardon me, but I seem to be in a spot of bother and appear to have lost my friends and a warehouse... Rather careless of me, I know... Has anyone seen a young man or woman, answering to the names of Turlough and Tegan respectively? It's quite important that I find them. Lovely stone castle you have by the way, shame that I can't stay.


[[ OOC: The Doctor is in! Feel free to pester him via journal or in person. He's wandering around the towers and making his way to the ground floor. :) ]]

It's actually been pretty calm here for a while, so we can only hope it continues in the same vein for a little longer.

[Skinny idiot - now why does that sound familiar?]

Heh. Yeah, well. I know she's a little different from the shipboard AIs we have in my time, but the basic idea is the same. See, I asked one of you once if you knew what it was like to an AI who really cares about your safety, and how they can be really close to you even though your minds are really different? Cause my AI's like that, and, well. The other you said that was pretty much how you are with the TARDIS, too.

[toobravehearted]

[Yes, he's hoping things stay that way too. The he's nodding slowly, not that York can see that of course.] I couldn't survive without her. The TARDIS is always with me, and I with her.

Do you have your ship and AI here with you?

[encryptedlock]

Well, mine's just a little AI - runs my armor instead of a ship. Say hi, D.

[And there's a different, much more echoing-robotic than the first.]

Hello, Doctor.

[toobravehearted]

[Now that's a surprise, but not an unpleasant one. ]

Hello. It's good to meet you. D, is it? I take it you're responsible for York?

[There's humour in his voice with the last. He knows how the TARDIS feels with him at times, and it amounts to mildly exasperated with his antics.]

[alaspooryork]

That is correct. I am called Delta, and York is my assigned partner. It is my pleasure to meet you again, as it were.

[toobravehearted]

The pleasure really is all mine, to meet the both of you.

[encryptedlock]

Thanks, Doctor. And if you need anything while you're here--anything--just let us know, okay?

OMG lookit icon! /dying :D

[toobravehearted]

[There's a pause before he answers; clearly he's grateful and sincere.] Thank you. I will.




[[ooc: and um, I don't know cause I'm so bad at OOC talk, but I put in for the CR meme and had a random thought while typing. More CR? No worries if you're not interested in that tho. :)
