[The video is seen at an awkward angle at first, before the Sandshrew holding it managed to straighten it out. Today the view is that of a thoughtful Doctor with his Abra sitting on his lap. He's not looking at the camera, instead looking out the nearest window.]

The tenth's gone. [His words were short and strangely clipped compared to the animated rambling he usually greeted Johto with.] Just as well. Things tend to turn out wrong when there's more than one Doctor in one place.

...Jenny as well. I was looking forward to seeing her again--it's been a long time. Too long.

[He paused, took a breath and sighed...then turned to greet the camera with a smile, seemingly back to his usual self.]

Shame, that. But these things happen, don't they? People come and go as they please; there's a good chance our timelines will intersect again sooner or later. That's the thing about time travel, you see all sorts. The universe is a big place, bigger than most can imagine, but I do tend to find the important people when I need them. Or when they need me. Usually the latter.

[Adric jumped off his trainer's lap as the Doctor stood up, floating at his side.]

Chrome? I think I should be moving on soon. Stayed in one place too long, not quite my thing.

You're a time traveler?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

That's right. At least, I was before I got here.

Re: [video]

[usedpursuit.livejournal.com]

[wow, that's... amazing! He's never met a time traveler before.]

That... sounds very complicated.

Isn't it lonely?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Lonely? Oh...no, not really. After all, why would it be? I've got friends all over the entirety of time and space.

[A surprise look of a moe.]

You're... Isn't that information suppose to be classified?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Classified? What do you mean?

[video]

[attractseasily.livejournal.com]

How did Nagato did this...

[FILTERED.]

Speaking of Time Traveling openly in this time plane. I'm not sure if this time plane has already have the knowledge and concept of time traveling. B-But- I mean, at least I wasn't given authorization yet.

[video; filtered] already this is the best conversation ever

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

[You get a confused stare, Mikuru.]

Well, of course Earth doesn't have time travel, but...time plane? Time plane? What on earth do you mean by that?

[It's rare that someone uses 'time' in a sentence that the Doctor doesn't understand.]

[usedninjathief.livejournal.com]

Aw man! The Doc's gone too! Jeeze Johto, way to take all my friends from me.

[No wonder she hadn't heard from him in a while.]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Things never go right when my personal timeline intersects. It might be better for the fabric of time and space if only one Doctor is in Johto.

[video] cause i fail

[usedninjathief.livejournal.com]

Yeah, maybe... I don't understand all that timeline mumbo jumbo, the Doc tried to explain to me on more than one occasion. He was just... He was the first friend I made here in Johto.

[video] no worries, i do it all the time.

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

...hm. I see, makes sense.

[Except it was really weird to realize his previous incarnation knew people that his current one didn't.]

[l4w-of-dr4gons.livejournal.com]

So if you're a doctor of time then what was the tenth a doctor of?

[Video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

I'm not a doctor of time, I'm a Time Lord. So was he; we're the same person.

[Video]

[l4w-of-dr4gons.livejournal.com]

So... there have been least ten of you running around here in Johto at different points?

[Video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

What. No, of course not. That would be ridiculous.

You see, when a Time Lord dies, they regenerate. New body, new voice, new personality. I've gone through it quite a lot by now--this is my eleventh. Hewasthe previous: hence 'tenth'. It'd be all sorts of confusing if we called each other the same name.

[dragonspeak]

The other Doctor's gone? [He's very obviously disappointed] It looks like a lot of people have gone home.

[Video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

It seems that way. But that's the way things work, people come and go all the time.

Things tend to get all...paradox-y when there's more than one of me around. I wouldn't worry if I were you. Which I'm not. I'm him and also me, but definitely not you.

[Video]

[dragonspeak]

It's true, but it doesn't make it any easier when a friend disappears. [Sigh]

[Video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

...no, no I suppose it doesn't.

[He shrugged, going right back to smiling.]

I'm sure I'll run into them again. If not him, then at least Jenny.

video HTML WHY

[mosorgans.livejournal.com]

[Chrome's quiet a moment. She understands, but it still hurts some]

I...I'm sorry I haven't been around much. [She's been training really hard day and night to get strong enough for the gym]

....I understand though. [She nods, carefully keeping her emotions under control] I-I'll be leaving early next week, I think. We can meet up in the next town, can't we...?

video; because it hates you

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

It's alright, don't be unhappy. Of course we'll see each other again.

video; CLEARLY

[mosorgans.livejournal.com]

[Chrome's quiet a moment and closes her eyes to collect herself.

After a moment she reopens them. It's not like he's leaving forever but... It still makes her sad]

Promise?

Voice

[quebrado-angela.livejournal.com]

[Her tone is rather wary of you - she's not the most trusting of women. But she speaks up anyway, more out of curiosity than anything.]

Why would it be bad for there to be more doctors? People still get injured here, right?

[seasaltissacred.livejournal.com]

I thought having more than one doctor was a good thing...

[ Obviously Pence doesn't know what kind of doctor you're talking about. Ohoho. ]

Wait... Time Travel?
