[Behind her, the pub is partially visible. She's tucked into a corner and leaning back in the chair as she speaks to the camera.So, I managed to give myself a half-assed tour, and I'm definitely impressed. Kind of hard not to be. Karrin Murphy, new warden, with the Chicago PD back in the world. Are there actual maps of this place, or do we have to

Alas, you get VOICE. Because Five is tinkering with things, and he never goes to the pub :(

[a_bit_put_upon]

Strange, how you refer to the world, as if it's the only world there. Of course, I'm merely assuming that by Chicago, you mean the city on the planet Earth- I could be wrong on both counts, of course. Perhaps I've been traveling too long... hmm... [A bzzt and sparking sort of noise.] Drat it. Well, of course I haven't. Oh! Pardon me, what a terrible way to introduce oneself. Hello; I'm the Doctor. I work in the library aboard this ship- you're welcome to peruse any time, of course.

[clicking and fiddling as he changes to the warden filter]
I've got nothing to say regarding weapons, but I strongly recommend speaking to Iroh if you're interested in meditation. He's a man very much in touch with the mental flows around him.

VOICE IS GOOD. SO IS FIVE. GLEE. (BELATED, but she won't 4th-wall him. Anyhoodle.)

[whateverthemess]

...Yeah, I mean Chicago, Illinois, United States, Earth. Sergeant Howie mentioned other versions of Earth, but I didn't know I had to get that sp--wait.

Did you say the Doctor?

[...No, because that would be ridiculous. You cannot see this, Five, but she's so massaging her temples right now.]

[Switching to warden filter as well]

Iroh?

Voice - Warden Filter (Aww why not xD)

[a_bit_put_upon]

Well, of course there are other versions of Earth; it would be silly to think other realities didn't exist. That would be like saying the Universe isn't real. It's merely a chore to get to them, generally.

[Another small zap, and a click.]

Ah, there we go. Right as rain. Yes, I'm the Doctor, though if you're confused by the presence of, ah... I believe it's two of me now, not to worry. We haven't caused a lethal paradox that I know of. At least not yet. And Iroh is a delightful man. If you're familiar with gurus, he's very much like that, if he isn't one officially. You know, I've never asked. Every time we speak, we turn out wandering a great philosophical path somewhere or other, or we become engrossed in the game we're playing. Why can't more friendships be that way, I wonder?

Voice - W. Filter (She's not sure "I'M KARRIN AND YOU'RE PRETEND" is the best first impression. |D )

[whateverthemess]

...Of course.

[She sighs. And remembers The Five Doctors.]

I think I can manage. And he sounds like a good person to know. Philosophy can get a little tiring at times, I'd think.

Voice - W. Filter (contrariwise, "lemme show you my TARDIS" is probably an easily misconstrued offer

[a_bit_put_upon]

[At least she isn't remembering Time Crash. He would have choice words to say about THAT.]

I suppose it can, if one isn't accustomed to strenuous thought on a regular basis. There are other pursuits available as well, should your mind be fond of wandering- a gymnasium, an art therapy room, and a simulated ecological system enclosure, among other things.

Voice - W. Filter (I lol'd, after choking soda up my nose.)

[whateverthemess]

[A laugh.] You're as casually insulting as I remember.

[Er.] What's the ecological system enclosure?

Voice - W. Filter (Careful! I do not think you are a soda fish. :P )

[a_bit_put_upon]

Pardon, I was being insulting? I'm terribly sorry if I was; I certainly didn't mean to be. The enclosure is exactly as it says on the tin- a sort of simulated environment, which seems to be nearly boundless from the inside. I believe they usually call it the C.E.S. here- closed ecological system. It seems to follow a similar premise to the T-

[pause] ....wait. As you remember? Have we met?

Voice - W. Filter

[whateverthemess]

Not intentionally. Really, it's fine.

[Oh crapsicles.]

Not exactly.

Voice - W. Filter

[a_bit_put_upon]

I see. Is there an American division of UNIT, then? Or are you a friend of Peri's, perhaps?

Voice - W. Filter

[whateverthemess]

...You could say that. I do a lot of similar work.

Voice - W. Filter

[a_bit_put_upon]

Do you? What sort of work is it?
