001 | The Doctor will see you now!

[doctorspeak]

Characters: The Doctor and you! All of you!
Setting: Room 1-12 and random halls/floors/whatever
Format: Starting with prose, but I'll follow you
Summary: The Doctor wakes up and immediately goes to inspect ALL THE THINGS!
Warnings: None at the moment.

The first thing the Doctor does when he can move is touch his own face. And the first thing he finds weird about the situation is the fact that his face feels the same. Regeneration is funny like that.

"Same face, same teeth. Ooh! Sounds the same, too. So then why..."

He bolts upright and spots the notes, skimming them briefly before tossing them aside and locking his gaze on the next thing, the trunk. The Doctor flops toward the trunk and immediately begins digging around.

"No. No, no, no. Where are you? Aha! Sonic!"

At last he emerges with a triumphant laugh, a small metal gadget in hand. A flick of his wrist, and it extends, green tip lighting up and emitting a high-pitched whirring noise. He points it at the wall briefly before staring at it as if trying to obtain some kind of information from it.

"What, nothing? What's wrong with you then, eh? What's the bad people done to you?"

-----

The Doctor is roaming the hallways, occasionally pointing his sonic screwdriver at things and muttering at it. He's dressed in his normal attire now, tweed jacket in place and bow tie adjusted awkwardly over the collar but there nonetheless.

Amidst that hallway-roaming, the Doctor will find himself encountering a well-dressed man in a fedora who looks...rather surprised to say the least. Romeo had told him the Doctor was gone, but Shou's pretty certain that he's seeing Eleven right at this moment.

"...hey, oi! Doctor!"

[doctorspeak]

The Doctor is staring intently at his screwdriver when Shou speaks, but the sound of his name grabs his attention. He looks around in bewilderment for a moment, as if fifteen different things distracted him during the process of turning his head to see who was talking to him, but finally his gaze reaches its destination, and the Doctor's face breaks into a wide grin.

"Hello! I'm the Doctor. But you knew that, I suppose. Unless you call everyone Doctor--which has happened. But assuming you don't, hello!"

Coherent thought progression? Psh, who needs it!

[thisclinchesit]

"Yeah..."

Shou's head tilts to the side a bit - Romeo mentioned that when Isabela came back, her memory was gone. His own memory's been a bit fuzzy. Maybe that's what happened here. "Do you remember me? Hidari Shoutarou, the detective? We were roommates here before."

Room 1-12 doorway?

[hardknoxlife]

[ The first thing you'd notice would probably be the quiet puttering of a lawnmower as this guy goes past the door. But the noise calls his attention and makes him back up ever so slightly just to lean back and peer into the room. ]

Hullo? Everything all right in there? Just woke up?

Room 1-12 doorway!

[doctorspeak]

[and here's the Doctor, sitting on the bed with his screwdriver. He hits a button of some kind on the device and the noise stops along with the glow. Then the Doctor looks over, a giddy smile on his face.]

Hello! Maybe you can help me. What does my face look like?

Incidentally, I just saw a picture of Matt and the torch on Tumblr.

[hardknoxlife]

What does your--

[ Pardon the moment of confusion for a second there as he steps off his lawnmower. ]

Well, you look human. Hair's all funky and- Hold on.

[ There's a moment as he holds the mower up for him a moment. The surface is polished enough to serve as a mirror. Mind the plate that reads "death scythe" however. ]

There you are then. S'not exactly a handmirror but it'll do, eh?

dormitory hallway? '^'

[keepscalm]

[Fretting. That's most of what England is doing right now. Since he has found himself with a babby to take care of and no way to constantly keep an eye on him.

He's actually making his way back to his room when he hears a...very familiar sound. Ha ha, look at him, he's finally going crazy. It's ridiculous even for him to imagine hearing things off of his own telly.

Except he's not only hearing the sonic screwdriver, he's seeing things too. Like a jacket. And an iconic bowtie.

And apparently his own sanity completely melting in front of him. Good god. He's even seeing Doctors now.]

...oi, something wrong over there? [Maybe it's just his imagination...or someone that really happens to resemble Eleven...]

YES dormitory hallway

[doctorspeak]

[Nobody can copy these dashing good looks, England!]

[The Doctor looks up from his current position, which happens to be laying on the floor in the hallway tapping his screwdriver against the floor. When technology doesn't work, apply brute force!]

What's that? Something's wrong? Something's always wrong. Somewhere. Why do you think I'm so busy? Aside from poking my nose where it doesn't belong. Which happens more than you'd think. But if you're talking immediately--

[The Doctor hops to his feet.]

My sonic screwdriver is broken.

i'm sorry in advance that England is embarrassing

[keepscalm]

[If the world had more than one Matt Smith...

Confusion is written plainly on England's face. He really is off his rocker. This place finally broke him.





Okay no calm down, England. This is-- weird. But. He's the Doctor. You know the Doctor! Just talk to him normally. ...as normally as one could talk to the Doctor.] ...I think the problem lies in our surroundings, not in your screwdriver. [It's not like the Tower is made of wood.]

HELLO floor three?

[pactum]

So much for libraries being quiet. That is quite possibly the strangest noise Ciel has ever heard. Sliding the book he'd been thumbing through back into its proper place, he takes a few cautious steps out into the aisle, searching for the source of the sound. He finds it quickly enough, just two rows down: a man in tweed and a bow tie pointing some small instrument with a glowing green light at the nearest bookshelf.

"Are you looking for something?" Ciel is probably completely justified in his skeptical tone and raised brow. Especially since he's fairly certain he'd heard this man talking to himself not a moment before.

SUP floor three

[doctorspeak]

The Doctor pulls the screwdriver back, flicks his wrist to adjust something on it, and stares at it intently as if trying to glean information from it. Then Ciel speaks, and he looks at the boy. And then at the bookshelf. Then at Ciel again.

"Yes."

There's a pause, and he adds with no trace of irony:

"There's an escaped book."

[pactum]

The seriousness with which the Doctor responds is unexpected enough to startle him, and for a moment Ciel can't think of how to reply; he simply stares, brow furrowed.

Fortunately though, he's a quick boy, and comes up with something soon enough. "Has it managed to totter off on its own, then?" What Ciel fails to realize, however, is that his sarcasm may in fact be mistaken for serious inquiry.

[myblueskies]

Romeo stopped in his tracks when he saw the man in the bow tie wandering the corridors. First miss Spain, then mister Shoutarou and now...

"Mister Doctor!" He ran up to him, huge smile on his face. "You're back!"

[doctorspeak]

The Doctor stops and turns immediately on his heel, throwing his arms up with a grin.

"I'm back!"

He can't remember ever being here before, of course, but there's a very happy small child running toward him, and there's always rule number one: The Doctor lies.

[myblueskies]

He remembered... He remembered! Romeo's grin got even wider as he ran the final distance. He hadn't seen him in such a long time and according to the bad people those that disappeared went back to their destroyed worlds, which wasn't a very nice thing to happen!

"I'm so glad your back! Are you okay? So much has happened since you were gone!"

random hallway gooooo /o/

[complementing]

[Minako hears the Doctor before she sees him, blinking and glancing around the area to try and locate him. Newcomers tend to talk to themselves upon arrival, after all.

She's not expecting him to be holding a screwdriver. Many of the residents both old and new can be seen with different sorts of weapons, but this is a first for her.]

Looking for something to use that on?

yeeeesssss

[doctorspeak]

Found something. Not working. [the Doctor replies, never looking away from the strange glowing gadget in his hand.]

Come on, you! [he taps it against the wall--when it doubt, hit it!]

[complementing]

[Minako tilts her head, arching an eyebrow.]

Um...have you tried turning it on?

So he met 11 before--

[fractus_animus]

[ Have a blue-haired rather short boy watching you wave your Sonic Screwdriver at things.

Blink, blink. ]

... Doctor-san? What are you doing?

[ No, really. What ARE you doing. ]

eeeeexcellent~

[doctorspeak]

[Nobody ever knows what the Doctor is doing. Including the Doctor.]

Sonicing. Hello! [At hello, he turns with a smile that many would likely term "manic" or "definitely on something.]

[fractus_animus]

[ ... Oh.

That explains absolutely nothing.

Okay then. ]

... Do you remember anything about this place?

[ Important questions. ]

[theromanose]

[so rory is just minding his own business, having a walk. nothing unusual. except that as he comes to a bend in a hallway he hears this noise, this kind of high pitched electronic noise, which wouldn't mean anything at all if rory had never heard a sonic screwdriver in action before...

he more lunges around the corner than walks, operating under a spike of adrenaline caused by the logical reasoning that 1. that must be a sonic screwdriver, 2. therefore the doctor is here, 3. amy and/or river is probably with him!! and oh look, it's the alien himself, pointing the screwdriver at the wall or something.]

Doctor!

[wow rory, way to stand at the end of the hall like an idiot.]

[doctorspeak]

Not now, Rory, I'm in the middle of something! [the Doctor loudly replies from down the hall]

[beat]

[oh.]

Rory! Rory the Roman, a familiar face at last, good to see you!

[the Doctor jogs down the hall, screwdriver going back into his pocket. Rory himself is brilliant, of course, but where there is a Rory there is always an Amy, and the Doctor would certainly feel loads better if he knew Amy was safe. He stops a few feet from Rory, just. Smiling at him. OKAY RORY YOU CAN SHOW HIM WHERE AMY IS NOW AND ADVENTURES WILL BE HAD!]

Room 1-12 'sup roomie

[morituramfides]

Jin had basically adopted the stance of ignoring his roommates most of the time, and was sitting against the wall on his bed, typing away on his laptop and keeping his concentration on the screen. However, when this new guy was basically exclaiming and talking to himself and flailing about, that was about the time when it started to garner investigation.

Or maybe he was just a little bored, but either way, Jin looked up from his laptop to fix the Doctor with a...look. "'Sonic'? The hell are you doing?"

SUP sorry this is so late sobbing endlessly

[doctorspeak]

"Sonic screwdriver," the Doctor says with a slightly bewildered grin. "Not working, though. Must've been damaged somehow."

He half-hops, half-vaults himself out of the bed. "I'm the Doctor, by the way. What's your name?"
