[He appears on the screen, holding a squirmy mongoose. That terrible jester marionette of his? Still sitting on the back of his couch. He's hesitant because he knows what's been going on, and there's some potentially terrible things that he could be admitting about himself right now. So he's going to try really hard not to!] Harper! This is actually your pet. I'm duty bound to return it to you... I have no idea what it's name is.

[And a pause. Okay! Let's go with-] I know how to play the spoons!

[Really?

That's it?

He sighs in relief.] I was worried for a moment that I was going to say something considerably worse! [He ignores the mongoose considering a voyage down his pullover.] Such as the fact I know I'm the most problematic, repugnant, and unpleasant of the lot of me and I'd been better off not even having gone through this regeneration.

[Wait.] Ignore that bit. [He makes a pissy huff and cuts the feed.]

Tell me you're not pitching it over the deck, at least.

[ He's ignoring the last bit because in his own experience, that kind of thing? Is hard to dissuade from. The best thing is really a distraction.

So Seven gets a distraction. ]

What? No! Of course not. I wouldn't condemn some distant sphere to a mysteriously falling mongoose from the sky. [Stupid flood making people know how much he dislikes himself.]
[identity profile] fivestepsahead.livejournal.com on March 12th, 2011 05:22 am (UTC)
I would think that some of those spheres have received worse than a mongoose, though.
championoftime: 7.2 - chin on handle[personal profile] championoftime on March 12th, 2011 06:09 am (UTC)
Indeed they have. [Some spheres have received him. Or worse, Daleks.]

Though it still would make one person's day considerably more.... peculiar, I'm sure.

You have a talent for understatements, Doctor.
championoftime: 7.2 - crosslegged[personal profile] championoftime on March 12th, 2011 06:39 am (UTC)
I also have a talent for juggling, and the former is rarely as useful as the latter. [He distracts himself pretty well sometimes, too.]
[identity profile] fivestepsahead.livejournal.com on March 12th, 2011 07:17 am (UTC)
You have many chances of demonstrating your skill here?

[ He sees that. And is helping. Kinda. ]
championoftime: 7.2 - this tastes of mud[personal profile] championoftime on March 12th, 2011 07:24 am (UTC)
If you want a chance to demonstrate a skill it's easy enough to make one. [And he pulls three cans of tuna out of his pocket- these cans were important at some point. Maybe. Anyway, he gives Bruce a juggling demonstration.]
[identity profile] fivestepsahead.livejournal.com on March 12th, 2011 07:29 am (UTC)
[ Slooooow bliiiiink. Seven he thinks you are SO ECCENTRIC. Maybe a little crazy. ]

Very impressive.
championoftime: 7.2 - grin[personal profile] championoftime on March 12th, 2011 07:33 am (UTC)
[He and the Joker had fantastic conversations. What actually is impressive is that when he stops, he catches the cans in a neat stack rather than letting them clatter.]

Thank you!

[Private]

Mind if I ask you something about the new boy?
[identity profile] fivestepsahead.livejournal.com on March 12th, 2011 07:55 am (UTC)
[ He's clapping politely. ]

Do you practice that a lot?

private;

[ ... Jason. Sigh. ]

Go ahead.

He seems a little less established than the other two. [Established. That's what he'll call it.]

[ L- lol, Seven. Bruce closes his eyes, jerks his head away for a moment. ]

He is- [ pause ] volatile. Dangerous.

Was he always, or was there a triggering incident? [This particular Doctor has a strong interest in mental welfare. It's why he talks to the inmates and generally troubled people so often.]
[identity profile] fivestepsahead.livejournal.com on March 13th, 2011 04:48 am (UTC)
[Private]
[ He looks very, very uncomfortable about this. All sharp edges trying desperately to hide themselves. ]

He- died. Then he was revived and-

[ Very, very quietly: ]

It was my fault.
championoftime: 7.2 - addressing you[personal profile] championoftime on March 13th, 2011 06:44 am (UTC)
[Private]
I refuse to adhere to the idea that something is anyone's fault unless the intent to do harm was there. I sincerely doubt, even from what little I know, that this was the case.

But Jason... probably wouldn't agree with these sentiments, would he?
[identity profile] fivestepsahead.livejournal.com on March 13th, 2011 07:11 am (UTC)
[Private]
No. [ Neither will I. ]

It'll be best if Tim keeps away from him as much as possible. [ Pause. ] Jason carries a grudge.
championoftime: 7.2 - alert[personal profile] championoftime on March 13th, 2011 08:19 am (UTC)
[Private]
Understandable. He had an incident with the Joker, after the Joker attacked his paramour. That was one matter, but I'm well aware Tim's capable of losing his temper.
[identity profile] fivestepsahead.livejournal.com on March 13th, 2011 08:22 am (UTC)
[Private]
[ ... Well that's new to him. ]

What happened?
championoftime: 7.2 - a little norty[personal profile] championoftime on March 13th, 2011 08:24 am (UTC)
[Private]
He attacked him in his cell, broke his arm. I had to choose his punishment. The Joker vanished off the Barge even before Tim was through with his time in Zero. It was an altogether miserable situation.
[identity profile] fivestepsahead.livejournal.com on March 13th, 2011 08:43 am (UTC)
[Private]
... Hh. They both got off easy. [ For their standards, anyway. ]

Do inmates come back often after they've vanished?
championoftime: 7.2 - f-ing daleks[personal profile] championoftime on March 13th, 2011 08:49 am (UTC)
[Private]
They do occasionally. Not often. The Joker had been here once before, but the one I knew might have been from a different timeline as he didn't ever recall the previous events.
[identity profile] fivestepsahead.livejournal.com on March 13th, 2011 08:53 am (UTC)
[Private]
I suppose there's no way to stop it from happening.
championoftime: 7.2 - mulling[personal profile] championoftime on March 13th, 2011 08:54 am (UTC)
[Private]
No. But if he did, at least the one that remembered me, I'd request to take responsibility for him again.

He was reasonably frightened of me. At least I kept him from too many major incidents.
[identity profile] fivestepsahead.livejournal.com on March 13th, 2011 09:06 am (UTC)
[Private]
... Impressive. How did you manage that?
