∝Transmission 038: Going Home

Mar 16, 2011 23:02

[Dressed in their full uniforms, Commanders Menaeus and Farix wait in the center of the Hyperstring Gate chamber. Several scientists from both the Uesugi and Hawking are at work, monitoring the levels and other readings from the Gate, and some are even in communication with DIVA over the Spheres. Menaeus steps forward and both salute whenever an ( Read more... )

[the Doctor doesn't have too many personal items this time around, nor does he wish to bring along anything he acquired there. however, when he sees the commanders salute him, he just sighs, softly groaning under his breath:]

Oh, don't salute. Just...don't. Really, don't.

[he eyes the Gate, then the chamber door, and contemplates sneaking off before anyone else can catch him, but the moment he takes a step towards the blue humanoid he's nicknamed "Bob" in his mind, he stops.]

And before you ask, I'm not quite ready to go.

[Menaeus shrugs, giving a discreet look at Farix out of the corner of his eye that says, "Who doesn't like to be saluted?"]

Please yourself. Let us know when you are.

The Doctor is going home! bit_impossible April 28 2011, 18:41:16 UTC

[after he's said his good-byes, he finally makes his way back to Menaeus]

Well, I think that's everything. I'm trusting you lot not to screw things up again. [wags a finger at him] If I have to come back here a third time, I really won't be happy.

[but he thinks that's sufficient enough and lightens his tone] But good luck. You'll need it. [he gives a final nod to him, then heads over to the Gate operator, handing it his Sphere. he takes one last look at the people there, then sniffs casually as he mentally contains the emotions from this good-bye along with the many he's had to say in recent times, and simply walks on into the Gate, his hands tucked into his pockets.]

[he doesn't turn around again before he finally disappears.]

Why? Forgot to turn off the oven or something?

bit_impossible March 18 2011, 00:29:12 UTC

[turns and pulls a face] Well, perhaps the tea kettle, anyway.

So. Going home then?

blacks_lackey March 18 2011, 19:24:40 UTC

Why aren't you?

bit_impossible March 20 2011, 19:30:30 UTC

Ohhhh, I am. So many things to do... [he trails off, getting a distant look in his eye]

But what's next for you, anyway? Continue helping the family out?

blacks_lackey March 21 2011, 16:53:56 UTC

At home, you mean?

I don't know, doesn't matter.

bit_impossible March 23 2011, 21:14:44 UTC

Where else?

Of course it matters. Might not seem it, but it does--at least to me.

blacks_lackey March 24 2011, 15:28:23 UTC

Then perhaps you should visit, find out.

bit_impossible March 24 2011, 21:11:49 UTC

[he starts to smile and reaches out to give Turlough's shoulder a squeeze] Just might. Check to see you're not getting into any more trouble, that sort of thing. [winks mischievously at him]

blacks_lackey March 25 2011, 16:59:33 UTC

And rectify the situation if I'm not?

bit_impossible March 27 2011, 23:15:44 UTC

Ohhh, now that'd spoil the surprise! That'd be no fun, wouldn't you think?

blacks_lackey March 28 2011, 22:11:49 UTC

So... yes?

bit_impossible March 30 2011, 21:25:31 UTC

[blinks] Yes...what?

blacks_lackey March 31 2011, 10:24:23 UTC

Yes, you're going to get me into trouble.
