Warnings: Ed's mouth. That's about it for now.



Ed and Sollux had parted ways and he, for one, wasn't complaining. He had more important things to do. Things like finding out if this letter was for real. Somewhere in this tower he would find what he was looking for. I mean, Amestris couldn't be gone... right?

[stops, his brows furrowing.]

Um... hi?

[spacehipster]

Are you lost?

[unexculpable]

I guess you could say that. I'm just trying to figure out where I am.

[spacehipster]

Ah, then I'll give you the short version.

Our worlds have not been destroyed. We've been kidnapped and locked in a tower. There is no way in or out. Don't listen to the strange voices. If you do, you will die. Not all the residents our friendly. Aaaaand

I am The Doctor.

[stares at. forever.]

I...

What?

You didn't have to repeat yourself word for word.

[spacehipster]

Yes, well, you know what they say, repetition encourages cognition.

Not sure who they are, though. Always been a bit fuzzy on that. Really fuzzy, actually. The fuzziest.

[unexculpable]

Right. What'd you say your name was?

[spacehipster]

I am The Doctor.

lol this never gets old I'm sorry. xD

[unexculpable]

... Doctor who?

i love it more and more every time

[spacehipster]

Just The Doctor. Always have been, always will be. The Doctor in a box. The Doctor with a fox. The Doctor here and there. The Doctor everywhere.

[Stares. He doesn't know your silly Dr. Seuss, sir. He rubs the back of his neck a little. Just gonna leave that alone for now.]

I've been hearing a lot of different things about this place. Some people are sure our worlds are gone, some aren't sure and then there's a few who think they're all still there. What makes you so sure?

[spacehipster]

Because I'm The Doctor.

[unexculpable]

So you've got nothing but a gut feeling to back up your claim?

[he doesn't look very impressed, crossing his arms over his chest, but a moment later a bit of a smile appears.]

Nothing I haven't done before.

[spacehipster]

No. I know. Because I'm The Doctor. I have gut feelings, and twice the heart feelings, and way more thinky thoughts because I'm a Time Lord.

[unexculpable]

[OH WELL THEN. Don't mind him, he's just going to ROLL HIS EYES AT YOU FOREVER.]

And that would be...?

[spacehipster]

Time Lord. Lord of Time. Time traveler. The Doctor. An alien from Gallifrey.

[unexculpable]

You call yourself an alien?

[spacehipster]

Technically you're the alien.

Time Lords came first.

[unexculpable]

[he shrugs. that doesn't seem to bother him]

Just sounded weird hearing someone call themselves an alien.

... but, time travel, huh?

[spacehipster]

It's kind of my thing.

[unexculpable]

Guess it makes sense for a Time Lord.

It's funny. Two hours ago I would have said that time travel was impossible. Still does, to be honest. There's theories, of course, but nothing based on anything substantial.

[spacehipster]

Anything's possible, you know, especially with me.

[unexculpable]

Heh. Someone told me something similar to that not too long ago. You'd think I'd have learned by now.
