[it's a little too early to be awake! but you might have been awoken because AN ABANDONED BARN JUST COLLAPSED.

If you come take a look, there's a Time Lord wriggling his way out of the rubble.]

Note to self. Never do that again. Barns! They are just not structurally sound.

... and how are we all?

I do not wish to exchange pleasantries with you.

[geronimust]

Well, there's no way round it. If wishes were fishes, and all that. Otherwise we're going to have to stand here in awkward silence and look at the barn I just ruined, and nobody really wants that.

[bluetilator]

There's a world where wishes are fishes. I like it better than the world without shrimp.

[geronimust]

I don't think I'd be fond of a world without shrimp either. They're both tasty and singularly odd looking.

[bluetilator]

Yes.

What are you?

[geronimust]

A curiosity. What are you?

[bluetilator]

Illyria. How come you to this place, little curiosity?

[geronimust]

With a short stop and a long drop. Right into a swimming pool.

[bluetilator]

An unusual way to travel.

[geronimust]

It is. But to be less confusing and more literal, I travelled here the same way I do everywhere else. In my spaceship.

[bluetilator]

Where did you come from?

[geronimust]

A long, long way away. What about you?

[bluetilator]

I came from the earth of old before humanity oozed its way into existence and covered the planet, the most pernicious of weeds. I came from a place they now call Los Angeles.

[geronimust]

Interesting! You don't look like a Silurian to me.

[bluetilator]

I am not. What is a Silurian?

[geronimust]

On the earth I know, they were the race that lived on Earth before humans. They went into hibernation underground. Clever bunch.
