[Audio] I left my heart in San Francisco...  
I apologize for the profuse posting, but rather than see everyone be terribly upset with the young woman with the cellular phone, I would like to ask for a bit of assistance.

I don't believe being able to contact someone important to you to be a terrible idea, and if they've access to the technology and there are openings in the timeline, I can feasibly see how to do this. I don't want to make something only wardens can use or inmates can use. I think we all deserve a chance to say one last thing, aside from any requests we've made.

So I'm going to need a few parts. I have a couple of phones in the TARDIS I can disassemble. But I also need a list of components, including seven microprocessors and a small amount of mercury that I can use in the reconstruction of the radio frequency amplifier to make it time sensitive. I'm finding the TARDIS woefully short on both counts and she's in the middle of constructing other things for me for other projects.

Speaking of which, would there be a 300 yard spool of fiberoptic filament line sensory conductor lying around the engine room? And perhaps a cuprate perovskite container that I can use as a case housing to a power supply. But the previous items are far more important, this is unrelated.

Ain't no apologies needed if you gonna do your job and get some of those fancy phones for everybody.
championoftime: 7 - whut?[personal profile] championoftime on October 26th, 2010 11:24 am (UTC)
I have to make at least one, first. Speaking of which, do tell me if you run across a thermometer with mercury in it. They're surprisingly rare anymore. [And he doesn't want to really ask the Admiral for it himself, because he's a Doctor and Doctors are stubborn.]

Eh a what? [A beat] Oh yeah shit. Like for cookin' an' shit, hang on.

[He spins offscreen. For a few minutes heavy metallic banging and wrenching can be heard. Loud clangs and metal screaming. He reappears, sucking his bleeding fingers gleefully and holding up a thermometer (http://www.cuocoandcormier.com/images/Environmental/MercuryPhotos/Measuring/Mercury-41a.jpg) from an oven.]

Dr. Rex Lewis: strutting[personal profile] requiresssacrifice on October 26th, 2010 12:44 pm (UTC)
he would use the phone to give orders to President Zartan, sooo KEEP REX AWAY
An excellent idea, Doctor. I'm afraid, however, that I don't have the materials you requested.
championoftime: 7 - always looking upwards[personal profile] championoftime on October 26th, 2010 12:48 pm (UTC)
I'm guessing that someone will screw up and break it before it gets to some people, if he manages it
Hmm. Maybe I can manage to replicate the contents of the one inside my journal, though that requires disassembling it first and that puts me at a disadvantage.
Dr. Rex Lewis: hi there[personal profile] requiresssacrifice on October 26th, 2010 01:06 pm (UTC)
I'm sure there are people here with phones that can't get a signal here. They should donate to the cause.

And if you require any assistance, I'm only too willing.

The Doctor's offered to allow me to watch a dying star get eaten.

So give him your approval.

And how far away are you going to be from this happening.

I'd lend you my mobile, mate, to disassemble, but it's kinda got other uses here.
championoftime: 7 - more serious face[personal profile] championoftime on October 26th, 2010 01:43 pm (UTC)
Maybe, perhaps, and there is a chance I could scan it and have the TARDIS memorize the interior components. Then when she's done with her current tasks she can duplicate that.

I've got three working microprocessors in the- my- TARDIS myself, and building at least two more shouldn't be a problem. But, ah... I was doing something to that effect at the time of the explosion. I urge you to proceed with utmost caution. But the fiberoptic...? I could have sworn Kamelion once... though I could be muddling different memories.
championoftime: 7 - what do you suppose that is[personal profile] championoftime on October 26th, 2010 10:47 pm (UTC)
I am. And ah.... I have... Kamelion's remains still. He didn't have the exterior furnishings necessary for that much fiberoptic line. [Because you may need skin for that... and someone might be wanting to build an android for skin.]
Morgan Adams[personal profile] gimmethemap on October 26th, 2010 04:15 pm (UTC)
So...has it crossed your mind at all that this is the sort of thing that Wardens might like their Inmates to possibly earn and not simply be offered over their heads?
championoftime: 7 - describing[personal profile] championoftime on October 26th, 2010 10:49 pm (UTC)
It has, but it's also crossed my mind I'll only be fulfilling events that have already happened. It could only reach within a caller's existing timeline. If they were to make the call, it's already happened anyway and needs to happen.

[Narvin is thinking. On the one hand, he could contact Gallifrey! On the other hand, who the hell would he talk to? Rassilon? It's not like he has friends or family there. On the other other hand, maybe he could get in touch with Romana, break a few laws of time and warn her about what's going to happen, so there's a backup plan in case he fails on the Barge. Seven, being Seven, probably knows *exactly* what Narvin is thinking.]

I might have a few spare microprocessors lying around. [In his computers.]

[homfg he is so excited!]

I've seen phones that can breach the divide between our universe and the parallel dimension we nicknamed "Ghostworld" back home, but through time as well? That's amazing!

I can get you a spare microprocessor, lickety-split. Would it...do you mind having an observer or a spare set of hands around? I'd be interested to see its construction.
