Happy-Fun Splorey Times

[fluffinasuit.livejournal.com]

The Doctor, true to form and quite negating his earlier plans to keep a low profile, had decided to explore the city on his own. Also true to form, he was gawking like a natural born tourist fresh off the farm.

Well, if guys fresh off the farm kept up running commentary under their breaths about every single culture they recognized. And if they recognized quite a few, had an apparent habit of internal monologue, and occasionally ran over to point a buzzing little blue stick at seemingly random objects.

He was completely fascinated.

He was also bound and determined to get to the bottom of all this mess and get his TARDIS back. Now.

Ooh, look at that!

Satisfied with his exploration of a particular doorway, the Doctor turned to continue on. Noticing the other figure, he blinked, then smiled. "Oh, hello! Didn't see you there. Haven't met up with the group yet, have you?"

"I'm afraid I haven't," he acknowledges. "What group might this be?"

[fluffinasuit.livejournal.com]

The Doctor scratches the back of his neck. "I think it's sort of the group, actually. Large, lots of people, general milling about, the expected confusion. The usual."

"You are distinctly neither Human nor Sebacean. What are you?"

[fluffinasuit.livejournal.com]

"What's a Sebacean?"

[leather-bastard.livejournal.com]

"A populous race which makes up one of the more populated areas of the corner of space I come from. Have you ever heard of the Peacekeepers? Scarrens? The Nebari, even?"

[fluffinasuit.livejournal.com]

"Err, no. Sorry. Must be from different universes," because obviously the Doctor knew every race and species within his own. "Apparently that's happening a lot here."

"Your energy signature is quite unique. Just what manner of being are you?"

[fluffinasuit.livejournal.com]

"Time Lord, the last. Which would be why it's unique. You?"

[leather-bastard.livejournal.com]

"Sebacean-Scarren hybrid... the only." He smiles politely. "Time Lord, you say?" He seems to ponder the possibilities.

"Yes. Well, Gallifreyan as well, obviously. Well, not obviously, I suppose, for you. Same thing, though. Only not really."

"...of course." Scorpius glances around. "And you said there were others, from other universes, elsewhere aboard?"

[fluffinasuit.livejournal.com]

The Doctor nodded, crossing his arms. Pockets just weren't a pleasant option in his current garb. "Yeah, quite a few actually. Somewhere. Trying to get their bearings and the like."

"Perhaps I shall see what else I can find."

But he won't go too far... this being is fascinating. And if its name bears any truth at all...

There is potential here. Much potential, everywhere he turns.
