All or Nothing at All

Hello, I'm the Doctor.

[He pops off his hat in greeting to the camera, eyebrows shooting up with the gesture and then replaces it.]

Yes, another one, I know. But we're really not all the same are we? We have our own ticks and habits above similarities. Sometimes I think we're all squabbling siblings vying for the same body rather than an individual. Something that I occasionally reflect on. [He rolls the "R" in "reflect" thickly.]

Anyway, the Admiral informed me that more of me might be meandering about here, so I'll assume that most of you are at least vaguely acquainted with who I am. Whether you believe me to be an "old geezer" I've gotten that one a few times or the one with the scarf, it is still me. But all of you I haven't had the pleasure of making acquaintances with.

So, introduce yourselves! No time likes to give presents.

I was getting a bit tired of ending up incarcerated myself. So! Tell me more about your inmate! I'm excited to meet mine.

Oh, he's quite fun! His name is Captain Findthee Swing, but I just call him Swing. He's actually doing quite well at the moment. We got him to stop torturing, but he needs to make more friends with the inmate population. Unfortunately, he views them all as ingrates and below his level-he was a policeman, you see.

That's unfortunate, he really ought to give the potentially reformed a chance. I had quite a bit of help escaping a plot a while back from a kindly former debt collector. He accompanied Mel to keep her safe, just because he was actually a stand-up fellow. In the end, he decided to take up protection as his calling. I even asked him to come along and he decided his place was already found.

I don't mean to be rude, but who's Mel?

[championoftime]

Girl coming along. Stubborn and bright for every curly red hair on her head.

By the way, I've decided to adopt Dr. John Smith for a bit in terms of defining myself aboard the ship. I found it more pleasing than the numbers or "older" or "younger".

Oh, that makes sense especially since there are three of us now. Let's see...can I use Thete? I like it a lot better than The Evil One.

[championoftime]

Oh certainly! We can't have you going by anything with "Evil" in it. I always disliked those names. They're only useful in the face of an enemy.

[doctor-scarf.livejournal.com]

Well in my defense, I didn't exactly want to be called the Evil One. It just happened.

[championoftime]

That's precisely the reason I started talking my way out of situations. Less likely to end up with those nicknames.

....Though I fully admit to taking advantage of them.

[doctor-scarf.livejournal.com]

I do the same.
