[The sphere clicks on. A terrified boy stares up at it, scrabbling backwards in horror, drowning in a greatcoat far too big for him]

[The fear and bewilderment continues on child-Jack's face. He realises the source of the transmission is the sphere, and peers at it, shaking.]

Where am I? Where are my family?

[Ianto blows out a thoughtful breath. Okay. Jack is a child. This can be handled.]

It's all right. You're safe. You're aboard the Crucible.

hark_of_swords December 1 2008, 18:10:39 UTC

How can I be safe if I don't know what that is?

[Young Jack seems to have worked out the gun, even though his hand is trembling as he holds it.]

Jack? [frowns, afraid he doesn't know him well enough to be any help] Has a man named Ianto talked to you?

hark_of_swords December 1 2008, 22:43:30 UTC

[The boy nods]

He's comin' to find me I think.

Why does everyone know my name?

oliverplus December 1 2008, 22:50:54 UTC

Oh, good.

Uh... [racks his brain--what to say that won't make the poor kid worry more?] Some of us met before, but the ship's been playing with our memories. I'm Oliver, by the way.

Okay.

So how many of -us- are there?

I don't think your family will be here.

hark_of_swords December 2 2008, 20:54:12 UTC

I don't mind as long as they're okay.

redpaperfan December 4 2008, 05:15:20 UTC

[ he agrees with your priorities. ]

Yeah. As long as they're okay, it's good that they're not here.

bit_impossible December 3 2008, 01:53:37 UTC

Calm down! What's the matter? Were you separated from your family?

hark_of_swords December 5 2008, 00:09:40 UTC

They are back home I think.

Who are you?

bit_impossible December 5 2008, 06:27:04 UTC

You sounded alarmed, though. Was something going on back home? Are you alright?

People've been calling me the Doctor. Call me that! What's your name?
