[Romana's in her City Solutions lab, back to the camera, kneeling on the ground and working on something that her body's blocking from view. With a final adjustment by her sonic screwdriver, she flips what sounds like a switch and a soft mechanical whirring is heard.]

Let's see if that configuration works.

You have an interesting creation.

[lady_wandering]

The device was on again, was it? Oh, well.

Why thank you, Adrian, was it?

It's a K-9 unit, autonomous, usually sentient - but I've reduced that function a bit as a precaution - and very useful in research as well as other tasks.

Do you have such things in your world?

[caughtthebullet]

That's right, Adrian.

We do, but nothing as interactive as that, I'm afraid.

[lady_wandering]

That's a shame, he really is quite invaluable. And personable as well - although that's to taste I suppose.

Were you...affected by the curse, has it passed?

[morethanasuit]

Did you just build an AI dog?

[lady_wandering]

His name is K-9, and yes, I did.

[morethanasuit]

K-9. Very clever.

[lady_wandering]

Not my idea, more of a tradition I suppose.

...you're...back to yourself then?

[sheisstilllost]

Is that K-9?

[lady_wandering]

A, K-9 I suppose. Was there one with the Doctor when you traveled with him?

[sheisstilllost]

We encountered one once when we ran into a former companion of his.

[lady_wandering]

Ah, I see. He should be quite familiar to you, then.

Were you cursed as well?
