☄ 001; [video]

[usedreturn]

Well. Here we are.

[The camera focuses on someone who, quite frankly, looks like he just went through a paper shredder. Dark hair is disheveled, tie crooked, light blue shirt apparently shredded—he's actually quite a mess.]

'Here', however, is a bit unclear. Undefined, really. And the lack of broadcasts about 'Prisoner Zero' and 'incineration' is a bit worrying. Not to say I've never been somewhere strange before, but the fact that I came here with no apparent transport? Now that takes some effort, doesn't it? Never mind that clearly delusional woman calling herself my mum. I've had quite enough of 'are you my mummy?', thank you very much.

So. Anyone seen a big blue box?

[He paused for all of half a second.]

Also worrisome is the face that I seem to be working with one heart. How do you people manage?

Is that so? Wouldn't have an extra heart in there, would you?

[video]

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

If my powers were back, I could make you one. [More or less. At least she's still got her eye--err, lack of it, actually. At least she's still got her cool eyepatch.]

Um, do people from your world normally have two hearts...?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Well, yes and no. My homeworld, yes, but I tend to hop here and there.

[video]

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

[Her expression turns a bit wary, guarded] You travel to different worlds? Like... alternate worlds?

What's the blue box? [Full of questions, for the moment. But she looks a little embarrassed ] ...Sorry, I don't... mean to be interrogating you.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Course I do. What's the fun in sticking to one place and time?

Nah, I love hearing questions. Except maybe stupid ones. Haven't heard one of those yet, though. The box is my TARDIS, she's my spaceship for lack of a better word.

[She's quiet a long moment and looks away, thinking this through. The Doctor, at least, doesn't seem anything like Byakuran. She just nods, makes a note to keep an eye on him--just in case!-- and maybe ask to travel with him until Violet City.]

Spaceship. You're...an alien? [She doesn't seem that surprised by the idea. I mean, hello, in her world babies are hitmen and can pull giant bazookas out of their fros. Aliens isn't that far of a stretch]

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Now hang on a second, because to me you'd be the alien, wouldn't you?

...But yes. Time Lord.

[video]

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

Oh! [More embarrassment] I didn't think about that...

Um... I'm Chrome Dokuro. Thank you for being patient with me. [There's a small bow out of politeness]

You just arrived as well?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

[D'awww, cute little eyepatch kid.]

Chrome. Nice name; shiny, really. I'm the Doctor.

It does look like it. Not that I'm not used to getting a bit lost now and then, though I usually had a way back.

[video]

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

[There is a small blush at the compliment and she averts her eyes a moment in embarrassment ] Just 'The Doctor'?

[Chrome nods a little] It's strange. Did you meet your, um... pokemon, yet?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's right.

...Hm? Oh, do you mean this little fellow? [The camera went to a sleeping Abra draped across the Doctor's feet.]

[video]

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

((OOC: Would you be okay with going to action, since they're in the same town?))

I see. Pleased to meet you, Doctor-san.

...Ah. He's cute. [She leans in a little to look, then glances around] Mukurou is... ...?

[Oh god where did her bird go. She starts looking around a little more, trying to locate the Murkrow.]

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

((S'all good with me. <3))

What, did it run off on you? What'd it look like?

[video]

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

It looks like a crow... [Said crow pokemon might be suddenly swooping down on you Doctor.

Anything shiny on or near you? Because this Murkrow is trying to steal it.]

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

[Luckily, the Doctor is a bit of a mess and decidedly not-shiny at the moment.]

[That, however, doesn't stop him from flailing.]

[Quite a lot of flailing, in fact.]

[video to actioonnn]

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

[Oh geez. Chrome takes off then, surprisingly quick, to follow the sounds of Mukurou's cawing.

Instantly she's tossing the bird's pokeball at it to return it and literally jumping on top of the ball to keep it from popping open again. There is a few tense moments before Chrome sits up, straightening her short skirt and picking the ball up.

Her gaze turns to the Doctor--who can probably see that Chrome looks rather waif-like in person--and she sighs]

I-I'm sorry! He didn't hurt you, did you? I... He likes shiny things, he might have been trying to steal from you-- n-not that that excuses him, but...

[actionnnn~]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Nope, not a thing, perfectly fine. Had much worse.

action foreveerrrr

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

[Chrome nods in understanding and stands, brushing herself off.

She gives another bow then] Um, it's nice to see you in person. [Awkward turtle AWKWARD TURTLE. WHAT DO.]

...Ah... Do you have...anyone to...travel with? [Spoken slowly, halting because it's kind of really super special awkward and kind of embarrassing. But the Doctor doesn't seem like a sociopath bent on taking over the world anytime soon and she really needs to leave this town gdi]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Funnily enough, I don't. Which is, in fact, funny mainly because I seem to attract people. Usually girls. I don't quite know what it is about human girls, do they just love phoneboxes? Is there some sort of phonebox tradition I don't know about?

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

[She just stares for a moment, unsure of how to answer this] I... just need to get to Violet City. I promise not to be a bother... and I'm quiet. Um... Boss, and my fellow guardians, are in Violet City, but Boss told me I couldn't travel on my own.

...I didn't want them coming back for me and bothering them like that, so...

[She trails off a little and straightens her shoulders somewhat] If you don't mind, I'd... like to travel with you--at least that far.

[And blushing horribly now uwaah she feels sort of silly talking that uregently like that]

2/2

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

Ah-- that said, we are strangers, and I can understand if you'd be hesitant to agree to such a thing.

I'm sorry if I...came on strong.

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Well that's rubbish, of course you can travel with me. No fun traveling alone, now is it? Take my word for it, I'd know.

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

[There's a pause and she...looks a little confused. Like she wans't honestly expecting him to agree]

...I can?

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Sure. I love having companions, especially human ones, they're brilliant.

[pineapplet.livejournal.com]

Ah... [She nods and for the first time, smiles. At least a little]

Thank you very much. I promise not to be annoying, or cause you to regret your decision.
