RL- Lucy's got a new pet- the Doctor (backdated to the Pokemon!virus)

[sky_w_diamonds]

((OOC: Watch as I conveniently gloss over details of how Lucy actually, you know, managed to knock out the Doctor or get back to her flat))

It hadn't been as difficult as she'd anticipated, frankly.  Even in the body of what looked like a large green cat, he was pathetically easy to predict, and it wasn't long before Lucy had him unconscious, stowed

The Doctor stirred sluggishly at first; his head was pounding and the box that Lucy had placed him in wasn't the most comfortable mode of transport ever. As he heard Lucy speak, he raised his head to gaze at her balefully. He would have frowned if he had still been in his own body.

Lucy, he thought lightly, speaking telepathically. Not that I don't appreciate the kidnapping thing - though I could have done without the headache - but dare I ask, where are we and what you did to my TARDIS?

((OOC: Argh! Sorry this reply is so late! >.<))

A slight frown creased her brow when the Doctor's voice made itself heard inside her head. It was an unfamiliar sensation, almost intrusive, really. She shook off her bother, though, and fixed the Doctor with a light, mocking grin.

'Your ship's fine, Doctor; you needn't worry. There's not all that much I can do with only myself. She's just where you left her.' A faint pause, and Lucy pursed her lips thoughtfully. 'Wherever that is.'

'At the moment,' she continued, sounding rather bored, 'we're in my flat.' A smirk twitched around her lips. 'Nothing too diabolical, I'm afraid.'

[timey_wimey]

He felt a small measure of satisfaction when that frown crossed Lucy's brow. He knew he shouldn't, but really, he couldn't help feeling he deserved to make her feel a little uncomfortable after he'd been shoved in a box and kidnapped.

Good. Last thing I need is to have you or your lot messing round with her circuits. He jumped out of the box in a fluid motion and sat on the carpet, taking in the flat. Though considering that I accidentally ripped a hole in her before because of this pokemon form, I'd say she's probably glad to have a break from me.

He fixed his eyes back on Lucy, tail swishing. So now what?

[sky_w_diamonds]

'My lot?' She echoed. 'And which lot, precisely, did you think that was, Doctor? I'm quite alone.'

She almost wished that she had known what to do with the TARDIS. Not because she wanted to sabotage the ship, quite honestly no, just because if she'd have known anything about the thing, she could have gone somewhere. Anywhere. Earth was horribly tedious, after all, and human beings idiots. But as it was, the Doctor's ship was left sitting somewhere inexplicable for poor passers-by to blink at.

'Now?' She really was going to have to watch herself, the way she kept parroting the Doctor's words. 'Oh, nothing in particular. Perhaps I'll feed you later, if you're good.'

[timey_wimey]

If the Doctor could have shrugged, he would have. Oh, you know. You and any other would-be TARDIS hackers that might crawl out of the woodwork. It wouldn't surprise me.

He was being sarcastic, of course; the TARDIS could manage on her own for a while at least, and he was sure that the perception filter would hold up against any would-be intruders.

At Lucy's next words, he gave a small sort of Espeon snort that came out more like a cat hissing. You really weren't joking about keeping me as a pet, were you? he said, a touch of amusement in the voice that Lucy could hear.

[sky_w_diamonds]

The Doctor gave a little, cattish hiss at Lucy's words, and she raised an eyebrow, amused. His voice, however (if it could be called that, when she only heard it inside her head) sounded fairly good natured, surprisingly. Lucy leaned down, and ran careful fingernails down over the Doctor's tiny skull just behind one ear, a deliberate, mocking gesture. The fur was gorgeously soft. She smirked a little at him, leaning back.

'Not a bit of it.'

[timey_wimey]

The Doctor stiffened, ears moving back reflexively as she touched him. As she leaned back he padded slightly further away to sit and look at her sternly. Oi, he said. Just because I'm stuck looking like a cat doesn't mean I want to be petted like one.

[sky_w_diamonds]

Lucy exhaled a little laugh as the Doctor's hackles rose, his tail twitching irritably. The stern look was nothing short of ridiculous.

'My dear Doctor,' she slid one leg over the other, idly picking up her wine glass from the side table, 'Whenever did you get the impression that I give a toss about what you want?'

((OOC: Oh dear, Lucy's getting rather violent ideas now...)

[timey_wimey]

Never, actually, was the quick reply, but I live for the day.

He turned his attention to the bowl of water on the floor and sniffed it suspiciously.

((No swinging cat jokes, I beg of you. D:))

[sky_w_diamonds]

That didn't even come close to deserving an answer, so Lucy didn't give it one. Instead, she regarded the Doctor impassively as he lowered his head to the bowl of water she'd placed near him, whiskers quivering.

'It's not poisoned, you know,' she remarked, 'Honestly, where would be the fun in killing you like that?'

She allowed a moment to entertain the various, much more entertaining ways, in which she could kill the Doctor if she had a mind. Fortunately for him, however, she didn't; this was just a bit of fun.

'Just water.' Her voice was light. 'I told you I wasn't joking about keeping you as a pet.'

[timey_wimey]

He would have raised an eyebrow if he could. Please, you've just drugged me and kidnapped me. I think I could be forgiven for being a little paranoid.

Nevertheless, he bent his head to the water again and lapped some of it up with his tongue. It would help to get rid of his lingering headache, at least. and give him an excuse not to comment on the pet thing.

[sky_w_diamonds]

Lucy laughed softly, a bell-like sound, though her face went rather cold. 'Be forgiven?' She echoed. 'I rather thought you were more in the business of forgiving, Doctor.'
