♈ Aradia: Never forget your first Doctor. [dictated]

[psych0p0mps]

So it's not just me, from what I'm hearing? Everybody's stuck dressed up as one of their friends?

I mean, I really wouldn't mind, but this jacket is way too big and it smells funny and itches like crazy! And don't get me started on -

[There's a small *pop*, and something lands softly on top of Aradia's head. She makes a weird inhaling sound of surprise and revulsion, because she already knows what it is, and then a small grunt and the muffled sound of something small and felt-covered hitting a wall at high speed.]

- aaagh, this stupid hat! Doctor, you're wonderful and all, but if you ever get the urge to wear a hat like this in the future, please slap yourself.

[For action: Aradia's hanging out in her room, aka the teleporter room, because this hat that keeps coming back onto her head is so embarrassing it's not even funny. She's dressed up as an old friend, though her makeup is smearing.]

Not just you, indeed. Quite unfortunately.

[If Rose sounds a bit like she's trying to enunciate around some teeth that aren't quite hers, that's because she is. She'd be writing her correspondences instead, if she wasn't stuck in glasses that blur her vision. But alas, no reason to be a hermit all day, when everyone else is being tortured as well!]

You're dressed as the Doctor, then? The striped-pants fellow we have now, or a different one?

[psych0p0mps]

A different one. You remember his eleventh form, right? The one with the bow tie and the weird, sort of gaunt face.

Who are you being, Rose?

[fluthlu]

I didn't know him personally, but I do remember him. Dressed a bit like a grandfather.

I've been dressed up as Jane, with a mysterious mustache to top it off.

[psych0p0mps]

[laughs] I will take your word for it on that one, I don't know what grandfathers dress like.

Oh! Jane dresses comfy, though. Is it just the mustache that's bugging you? It does add a plus ten to dapperness, keep in mind!

[fluthlu]

I don't have a grandfather myself, but I do imagine that bow ties and tweed are as stereotypical as a grandfather could get.

Her clothes are quite comfortable, but I'm having a bit of trouble seeing through her glasses. You're right, though - I have never felt more debonaire.

[psych0p0mps]

Wait, you have her actual glasses? What's she seeing through then?

[toobravehearted]

[It doesn't take a genius to work this one out now, does it? But just for clarification, and with a sheepish sounding voice...]

That wouldn't happen to be a fez now, would it?

[psych0p0mps]

Uh - [good question! she never did ask him what it was called, she just threw it away whenever she saw it.] I don't know. What does a fez look like?

[toobravehearted]

Like a- A cone but it doesn't have a tip and is flat on top instead. Usually made of felt or kilim - that's a kind of tapestry. Fez itself is a place name: Fes, Morocco. Earth.

[psych0p0mps]

Ahh, okay. I learned something new today. Yeah, it's one of those.

[she's actually relieved that he didn't describe it as a small fuzzy bucket, that's the only comparison she could come up with.]

Your future self had one, I don't know why. But I guess the castle is counting it as part of the outfit for laughs.

[toobravehearted]

[He was thinking of a plant-pot, but he'll not miss an opportunity for a small lesson.]

Ah, well... [And there's that sheepish tone again...] I do have a fondness for hats. It's nice to know that I keep that fondness. Part of the outfit, yes.

[Pause.]

I'm wearing one too. Over a wig.

[Pausing again. He's doing a lot of that today.]

Do you really want me to slap myself, Aradia? Now, or a bit later?

Dictated

[cyan_maid]

You too, Aradia?

[She sounds almost forlorn, and there are definite grey smudges on the pages of the journals now.]

Re: Dictated

[psych0p0mps]

Yeah, me too. [She's quite amused at the grey smudges.] Rose said you're Nepeta, right?

Dictated

[cyan_maid]

That's right, and normally I wouldn't mind dressing up as a friend, but to this extent - Aradia, I can barely see anything! All I know is that whatever's on my hands is rubbing off on everything but it won't come off!

[psych0p0mps]

Oh, yeah, Rose has your glasses, doesn't she...

The stuff on your hands, it looks like grey paint or something. That's weird, though, I just got human-colored gloves.

[cyan_maid]

Who would even go so far as to put make up on their hands???

[goingrogue]

dr u say
does that mean i get 2 call u dr aradia
paging dr aradia
u have a code blue
u can be my dr

& a whole lot more
;)))))

[psych0p0mps]

ahaha
is that from a song or something

[goingrogue]

from the song of my heart maybe
bc i am just that awesome
i just drop it like its hot nonstop

[psych0p0mps]

yes i suppose that is among the best ways to drop it
but yeah im not actually a doctor so that might be a bit weird to do!

[anytime]

How hilarious is this hat and do I need to take pictures. Because it's obviously picture-worthy if it's getting this much of a fuss.

[psych0p0mps]

[ksal;fjdl]

That's not really necessary! It's not picture-worthy at all.

holy shit that icon

[anytime]

Yeah, ok, I'm no Terezi, but I know deceit when I hear it. I'm getting out my camera.

[psych0p0mps]

Noooo, Dave, I'm serious! [WHINE WHINE WHINE]

[anytime]

Come on, it can't be that bad.
