This isn't right. Not that background music for one's everyday life is a typical occurrence, mind you. But this, this music is Not Right. That's with capital letters, by the way, to underscore the not right-ness of the situation.

Now I don't think whatever's playing this background music would just suddenly switch to rather threatening tones without reason. So I have to think that perhaps something is coming.

Maybe several somethings. Maybe a flock, or a fleet, or a similarly alliterative name for a group of Somethings. That's with another capital, because I don't think this is just a something, this is a Something.

Which leaves the question, just what is this Something and how do we stop it? Questions. Plural.

Well, aren't we all lucky.

There's a Doctor in the house.

What were you thinking of?

Just something that happened a short time ago. All taken care of, nothing to worry over.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

On your world or this one?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

..see, now that's a bit of a tricky question. Let's say it was Earth and leave it at that.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

Earth, huh? You've been to other places besides Johto and Earth, then?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Sure I have. I love traveling, I'm always doing it.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

Where I come from, traveling between worlds isn't possible.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

You'd be surprised how many humans think that. Parallel worlds, maybe, but intergalactic travel's simple.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

We've made it to the moon, but that's about it.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

And while that's brilliant of you, there's more out there than any of you know.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

Maybe in a few hundred years we'll see it all.

But where I come from, space is still a mystery.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

A few hundred? Oh, no. It'll take much longer for humans to see the whole of the universe. I haven't even seen the whole of the universe.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

A few hundred thousand? A really really long time.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

To see all the universe? Longer.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

You sound pretty knowledgeable. I guess if you travel a lot, you must be.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

I like to think I am.

Even if you don't see all of it, humans persist for a long time. A long time. That's what you're best at, persisting.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

So if you're not a human, what are you?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Time Lord.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

And a Time Lord is--?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Me. I'm a Time Lord. Didn't we just go over that?

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

-- you're a Time Lord, but you look like you're human.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

No, you look like a Time Lord.

We came first.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

So where you come from, humans are made to look like Time Lords.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

I don't know if you were made to look that way. Big universe, not too much of a shock that one race looks like another.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

... that's a weird thought.

But I guess you're right.
