Arm yourself, because no one else here will save you... [Locked to Jack and the Doctor]

[OOC: For the sake of individual sanity and the fact that... It probably deserves it's own post. I give you the... Jack-Des-Doctor Rescue Thingy thread... Or something. Set... After the elevator goes splodey, obviously.]

Desmond Descant is understandably tense. Thankfully, the fact that he didn't have to watch Jack do unspeakable things to a hostage ( Read more... )

The Doctor's been running around the basement looking for Jack, but apparently in all the wrong places. And he was some distance down the residence hall, in the rooms being renovated, when the bomb went off, and barely even registered it - nothing to do with him, had to find Jack and go rescue Martha.

Finally, though, he circles back to the lobby, barely noticing the smoke and chaos at first, just focusing on... "Ja- Des! Quick, no time to explain, where's Jack?"

And then he realizes the smoke-blackened walls and all, and lunges for the elevator, slamming his hand against the metal doors, still hot from the fire.

"No, no, no, no, NO!"

Des is in a Mood and it's not getting better seeing the Doctor in this state, which gets his hackles raised pretty damn quick.

"Probably off being a hero or some shit like that," he says, scowling, but the minute the Doctor lunges for the elevator, his stomach drops in his shoes, because that can only mean that his worst fears have been realized.

He doesn't care if he's jumping to an invalid assumption, or at least what most people would see as an invalid assumption... He just knows

And kicks the nearest wall in protest. "SON OF A BITCH!"

The sound recoils off the wall and he whirls around to stare at the Doctor's back. "The bitch has got Martha, doesn't she?"

As soon as he sees the Doctor entering the room, Jack sprints to him. "Doctor!" Skids to a halt, more adrenaline coursing through him than he knows how to deal with. "Doc, you're not gonna like hearing this--"

"She's got Martha," the Doctor says without turning to look at him, glowering at the lift like he blames it personally. Oh, this can't be happening. After a moment, he shoves the bag he got from Elashte at Des, then starts shuffling through his pockets for his sonic screwdriver. Maybe he can do something to get the lift to... Except there doesn't seem to be much of the lift left.

"Floor plans," he explains to Des distractedly. "Maps, a key... Don't ask where they came from, it's not important. Won't do any good anyway unless we can get out..." He keeps running through possibility after possibility in his mind, trying to figure out some way they can...

"Who builds a basement without stairs?" he demands at length, of no one in particular.
