Ah, hello.

...I never really know how to start these off. It's odd talking to a little box and then waiting for someone to respond. Would probably be less weird if it were like a cell phone, but...

Uhm, anyways, I want to make an offer. To those of you who've lost your mates. And maybe as something of a security for those of you worried you may lose

You track them from their brainwaves.

[What.]

So is this like a "bitten by a radioactive MRI scanner" thing?

[audio]

[trusttheplastic]

More like a... "swallowed by time and rebuilt by an alien race" thing. [He pauses.] It's a long, sad story. I don't like it. But it's helpful.

[gimmethesuit]

Uh ... huh.

[Well, a little weird, but not the strangest thing Terry's heard of.]

So it really works? You can tell where people are?

[audio]

[trusttheplastic]

If I've got an idea of what their brainwaves are like, yeah. I can sort of just... match it up.

I could tell you where my... well, anyone I've met is right now. [He almost said his fiancee, but he thinks twice before specifically bringing up Amy, given the chance she overhears. It may be odd for her to think specifically that Rory could track her at any time if he wanted. Though it's very reassuring to Rory, to be quite honest. Not in the creepy way, just in the he's-been-watching-over-her-for-two-thousand-years way.]

There's this guy I work for.

Could you track him?

[audio]

[trusttheplastic]

Well, I've... got to know who he is. Need to be able to recognize his brainwave pattern, you know? But if I know that sort of thing, yeah, I could tell you where he is anytime.

[audio]

[gimmethesuit]

What do you need to know that?

[audio]

[trusttheplastic]

If I've been around him before, I'll know what his brainwave pattern is like. What's his name? Perhaps we've met.
