36--I could have danced all night

[chipsandtea]

The Doctor is here. I mean, I know the Doctor was here before (and he's gone now and I'm still moping over that, sorta), but the Doctor. The Doctor. My Doctor.

--well, they're both my Doctor.

But. The Doctor. And I'd never thought I'd see him again. But....well, obviously, I am, since he's here and all, and yeah, I've got the pinstripe blues and

Your knickers are all in a twist over a bloke with big ears?

Must say, I'm quite confused.

[chipsandtea]

Well, he's my best mate, but he sorta died in front of me a few years ago and changed into the other Doctor.

[ferretnarcissus]

Changed into the other Doctor? You mean, the one with the goofy hair & love for pinstripes?

[thinks] Even with Polyjuice Potion, a change like that is only temporary. Unless he found a permanent way to make the shift.

[chipsandtea]

He changed, yeah. Regenerated. It's....well, a way of cheating death. It's a Time Lord thing. Instead of dying, he changed his body into a new one.

[ferretnarcissus]

Time Lord? Regeneration? Now there's something you don't hear about in everyday society.

Well, minus the regeneration. That can be done by any idiot with skill with potions.

[chipsandtea]

Probably 'cause most of society doesn't deal with aliens everyday.

Not like he can, I bet.

[ferretnarcissus]

Can't say I've ever dabbled in aliens myself. Giants, trolls, unicorns, sure. But never aliens.

Sweetheart, I can regenerate all the bones in your body, if it was ever necessary. Could probably put your hand back on too, if you ever lopped the damn thing off.

[chipsandtea]

Not many people have.

Yeah, but if you were in the middle of dying, could you completely change your body? Go from being you to being a completely different person?

[ferretnarcissus]

Pretty sure there's not a spell or potion on Earth that can do that. Though I'd hate to loose these devastating good looks just to save my own hide.

It's not a wizard's job to toy with life & death like that.

[chipsandtea]

Yeah. Wizard or not, you're still human. [Smiles] Like I said, it's a Time Lord way of cheating death.

[ferretnarcissus]

Sounds nifty & all, but I think I'll stick with being human. Just being a wizard makes things strange enough as is.

[chipsandtea]

You wouldn't wanna be a Time Lord, anyway. They can be a bit...annoying.

[ferretnarcissus]

Oh yeah? Obviously you haven't met some of the wizards or even the Muggles that I know. Bloody awful they are.

[chipsandtea]

[Grins] Ever met one that thinks he knows everything? The Doctor's like that. Except....he pretty much does know everything.

[ferretnarcissus]

Hermione Granger. That girl was the most annoying wench in all the UK. She always had her nose in a book, was always raising her hand in class & was as smug as hell.

[chipsandtea]

Never liked the kids like that in school.
