[the soft sounds of pages being turned] I do hope we didn't miss anything significant. [quick flipping] I'd hate to think - [a sudden pause, and the journal drops]

[a tad distractedly] What?

[yes, not pleased. well, at least he got one nice week]

I very much want to kill him.

[broken_clock]

[a harsh, wry laugh]

Do you know, for once, I completely understand.

[sinister_charm]

[a snort]

As I fully expected. ...I say we find a way to kill him. Brutally.

[broken_clock]

[quick, quiet, firm]

No.

[a long moment]

Though I'd hardly refuse incapacitating him.

[atriplefirst]

He's been at it all this week. And he certainly has not tried to keep it to himself, either. It's sufficient enough to say he will keep at it until he finds himself satisfied.

[broken_clock]

[he doesn't try to hide the frustrated contempt in his tone]

I'd rather not wait that long.

[atriplefirst]

[quiet, distant]

Neither would I, Doctor.

[oneto_one]

Would you remind us of the TARDIS properties?

One & Two

[broken_clock]

What do do you have in mind?

[SAME FILTER]

[oneto_one]

We believe he attempted to get into one of your TARDISes previously and was unable to.

We were simply wondering if the same thing would work in reverse.

[SAME FILTER]

[broken_clock]

...Trapping him inside.

[cloakand_danger]

Can the rest of us get in on this plan for harming him? Preferably before someone actually gets killed.

[broken_clock]

[his tone is far more restrained]

Certainly, if you think you can help. I'm quite tired of a violent child throwing tantrums to no consequence.

[cloakand_danger]

We all are.

I don't know the full extent of his abilities, but I'm a strong lightning mage. I should be able to do something.

[broken_clock]

If nothing else, it would be a distraction. His strength and defence are apparently phenomenal, but he doesn't seem to have much of an attention span.

[dreams_in_red]

[carefully written out]

Dear! You're back. I've missed you.

[broken_clock]

[his voice softens]

Lucy.

Are you...how are you?

[dreams_in_red]

I'll be fine, dear. He didn't do anything the doctors here couldn't fix. Well--almost. I've a very unattractive design burned into my back.

[broken_clock]

[a long pause]

Well. That's...I'm glad you've recovered.
