[ There is a high-pitched whistling audible on the Guide today -- nothing too loud, but it might certainly be unexpected. After a few seconds of this, the video flickers on, and a grinning Time Lord is visible on your screen. ]Friends, Vogons, citizens of the good ship Thor, lend me your ears ( Read more... )

You as well? I do hope that you can see and hear me and that I am not simply talking at this device here.

Receiving you loud and clear! Looks like you've gotten the hang of it, eh?

Sounds like all the paperwork is par for the course, though. I'm not sure whether to be relieved or annoyed, honestly.

permavideo likesfather June 1 2011, 05:08:15 UTC

Just beginning to.

Fortunately, I am used to paperwork since they... used to be part of my job.

doctorate June 1 2011, 05:33:29 UTC

[ he pulls a face ] I have no idea how anyone could deal with paperwork on a daily basis. I could hardly handle it myself just then, and I wasn't there for that long.

[smiles a little at that]

I assume you aren't one to sit behind a desk for long periods of time.

doctorate June 2 2011, 01:29:48 UTC

I'm not one to sit behind a desk for longer than maybe ten minutes, honestly. Not unless tea and biscuits are involved.

Ah, that is understandable; one tends to relax when those two are present. I served them all the time to those who visited my office.

doctorate June 2 2011, 01:48:39 UTC

Oh, is that so? You must've had the best office on the block. What was your profession, before you ended up here?

likesfather June 2 2011, 01:56:13 UTC

A professor of magic. I would like to think it was comfortable enough for the visitors, at least.

Oh, I am Krohiten, by the way.

doctorate June 2 2011, 02:27:53 UTC

[ the splittiest of split-second hesitations, then, ]

Oh, you mean, like, the study of the belief of magic through various cultures?

likesfather June 2 2011, 04:34:45 UTC

... I mean magic, as in the power to manipulate time, space, and matter.

A non-believer, I take it?

doctorate June 2 2011, 04:48:10 UTC

[ matter-of-factly ] There's no such thing as magic.

likesfather June 2 2011, 04:50:18 UTC

[Oh, well, that type.]

Because you can't explain it within certain limits?

doctorate June 2 2011, 04:52:11 UTC

More like-- because everything can be explained through science.

likesfather June 2 2011, 04:55:21 UTC

Many have tried and failed.

doctorate June 2 2011, 05:09:40 UTC

[ so very proudly, but his tone is still light ] Oh? Run it past me next time.

[ switching gears, ] It was-- Krohiten, right? I take it you're freshly arrived, then?
