Blimey.

I've just killed someone.

He tried to take a nice bite out of me and so, acting entirely in self defense I assure you, I had a go at him with a shovel.

Knocked his head clean off.

Not how I planned on starting my- No! No, no, no, no! Don't come in here! Oh yes, I did just kill your friend, didn't I? Definitely sorry

[ She listens to the conversation, a little amused grin on her face. ]

Undead could also work for them.

[coolbowtie]

Fine, be picky if you want. They're technically "corpses reanimated by a particularly nasty and contagious virus", if we want to play semantics.

[notalwystrthful]

Or it's also the result of a man who was foolish enough to unleash them, and with it, he made us deal with his problem while he didn't take the blame for it.

But, then again, your explanation also works.

[coolbowtie]

Well, of course he did.

He's only human after all.

[notalwystrthful]

Indeed, humans are capable of errors, but it'd be nice to take some share of the blame.

[coolbowtie]

Some people don't like taking their fair part of the blame. Actually, I've found most don't.

[notalwystrthful]

It's disappointing and frustrating, isn't it?

[coolbowtie]

To put it mildly.

[notalwystrthful]

Mm.

I'm Diana Ethelbert.

[coolbowtie]

The Doctor.

And yes, just the Doctor.

[notalwystrthful]

A pleasure to meet you, Doctor. I've heard a few things about you already - good things, really.

[coolbowtie]

[Well, he loves having his ego stroked.]

Yeah, and who told you these things?

[notalwystrthful]

[ Then, let the unintentional ego stroking commence! ]

Miss Sto Helit. She's rather good in my opinion.
