Application for Clyde Langer, THE SARAH JANE ADVENTURES

May 12, 2011 17:45

Stepping through a doorway and finding himself somewhere totally unexpected was... well, not entirely outside of his experience. Out of the ordinary, maybe, but not his ordinary ( Read more... )

"YOU ARE ANOTHER THAT SMELLS OF THE TIMESTREAM," Dialga said, poking his head through a window, peering at Clyde.

"I what?" It occurred to him that if there were creatures like this about, he could have talked himself up a bit more. He could at least have bragged about some of the things he'd done. Like the Sontaran. That wouldn't have been too far-fetched, would it? And was he going to have aliens telling him he smelled for the rest of his life?

"YOU SMELL OF THE TIMESTREAM. LIKE THE OTHER TIME TRAVELERS. I BELIEVE YOU MENTIONED THE DOCTOR. THERE ARE TWO OF HIM HERE."

chipsandwich May 12 2011, 23:53:36 UTC

"Two? Wait, there's more than one of him?"

"Doctor? Another companion?" Turlough rolled his eyes. "Well, at least you're not ginger too."

chipsandwich May 12 2011, 23:34:03 UTC

"Another what?" Clyde glared defensively at the man's attitude. "I think you've got some kind of wrong idea, and I think you might need to change that."

vislor_turlough May 12 2011, 23:45:51 UTC

"Not like that you idiot, you've traveled with the Doctor?"

chipsandwich May 12 2011, 23:52:43 UTC

"I... no, no, I met him a few times. A friend of mine used to know him." He was not going to bring up the whole bodyswap thing.

There weren't many Hogwarts students who actually were young enough to be in school. Rory was a bit worried about that, though he suspected 'Lord Clyde' knew how to take care of himself...

"You know the Doctor too? There seem to be a lot of us about." It wasn't even that surprising any more, to be honest. "I'm Rory, good to meet you. Has anyone explained where you are yet?"

chipsandwich May 13 2011, 21:17:45 UTC

"What, you too? Is this some sort of reunion or something?" At least this guy didn't make it sound like an accusation. "I only met him twice, honest. And It's some sort of school or something? Only I don't know where, and that Turlough fellow made it sound like things get pretty dangerous around here."

thefuturemrpond May 13 2011, 21:29:55 UTC

"Not officially, no. There are a lot more students who haven't met him. I think it's just that he gets around a lot, time-and-space-wise." Rory sighed. "It's a school, yeah. Actually still on Earth, believe it or not, or at least an Earth. We're somewhere in Scotland."

chipsandwich May 13 2011, 21:37:46 UTC

"Gets other people around a lot too," he muttered, a bit sullenly. He'd have enjoyed being able to explore a whole new planet, but at the time he'd been too shocked and (yes, he could admit it to himself) scared. "So does Scotland have an epidemic of talking metal dragons, or is it just the one?"

"I don't know about charm school, but they teach charms here." Codex chuckled at her joke, replayed it in her head, realized how stupid it was, and trailed off. "Or, y'know, they would if we had regular classes, which... I should probably just start over. Hi."

Ugh. She eyed the door, wondering how it would look if she made an abrupt exit now. It looked like she could add comedy to the list of things that were Not Her Thing.

chipsandwich May 15 2011, 20:10:28 UTC

"A school without classes? Brilliant!" He held out a hand and gave her a broad smile. "Clyde Langer, planet saver."

Well, it's not as if he'd been able to brag about it to girls before. Why not enjoy it while he could?

codex_of_good May 15 2011, 20:13:46 UTC

She was confused for a second, but took his hand gingerly, a puzzled smile on her face before she remembered that oh yeah, most other kids hadn't gone to a performing arts academy for weird child prodigies and hadn't looked forward to classes. Her smile got a little more relieved then. "Codex. Um. Level 70 cleric. Oh, and Ravenclaw. It's a, um, thing here."

"Do you actually have to dispose of paperwork?" Granted, compared to some of the other questions it was an innocuous task. "Only I know someone who'd be a wiz at that."

"Will not pouring coffee on the desk ruin that which is on it?" Kusuriyuri asked. "And, to become offended is of little value; it only serves to entertain that which controls this place," he added solemnly. On his shoulder sat a kitten-sized cat staring at the newcomer a moment before rubbing his paw over his face and becoming very interested in his claws.

chipsandwich May 17 2011, 14:00:27 UTC

Wonder what planet he's from, Clyde thought with mild interest. He certainly hadn't met any aliens with pointy teeth and fangs yet!

"That's sort of the point," he explained. He was used to explaining things to Luke, although he didn't need it as much anymore. "You wreck the paperwork that you didn't finish on time, then ask for an extension, and pretend you'd finished more of it than you actually had. It's kind of a last-ditch resort," he admitted.

edomedpeddler May 18 2011, 00:47:34 UTC

Kusuriyuri raised an eyebrow. "When the papers are restored, will you not have more to do?" he asked. "It does not seem wise to increase that which must be done."

chipsandwich May 18 2011, 00:51:36 UTC

"Didn't say it was perfect. But it'd work as a sort-term distraction, and schoolwork's a bit less scary after saving the world a few times."
