[RL - Itsuki - A Warning Sign (Backdated to 04/04/10)]

"And then Doctor - oh, but then..."

The Doctor frowned as Carmen spoke, her worried face speaking volumes about the prophecy she was seeing before she'd even made it. Whatever she was about to say, it couldn't be good. Not that it was good already - he'd already heard that your song is ending soon lark once before, from the Ood, and hearing it

"It's high time all this sand got washed off," he agreed easily, watching the Doctor instead of Carmen. He wasn't psychic, not precisely. But enough time around the Doctor, and enough time around Haruhi, and most importantly enough time of Haruhi being around the doctor when her subconscious had already decided that he was the one with ESP gave him a niggling sensation that the woman was right, even though any thoughts about knocking hadn't even entered his mind before she said it.

It was times like this that the Doctor was glad that Itsuki was as good - better, even - at covering this sort of thing up, ignoring it for a little, as he was. Anyone else he'd taken with him would have buried him under questions by now. He hadn't even meant to take Itsuki on an adventure like this particular one but... well, things happened with him.

For now, he just turned the key in the lock and pushed the TARDIS door open, keeping the conversation going. "Yeah, I thought so too. Thing about sand, it always gets into the most awkward places."

But really? His mind was still on what Carmen had just said. Because he'd heard it before. Thanks to the community, he'd heard it before, a voice from the future warning him about... well, the future. His own personal future.

He just hadn't expected the warning to come so soon.

"It's only to be expected at the beach, but it's a little troublesome when you're not prepared..." He made as though to take off his jacket, and then reconsidered, assuming that the TARDIS wouldn't appreciate the amount of sand he'd end up dislodging end up all over the floor. "I have to ask, do you ever manage a trip to a nice calm place where nothing surprising in particular happens?"

The Doctor smiled wryly. "Of course I do! Trouble's usually only the bits in-between, you know. I manage my fair share of normal intergalactic tourist activity."

He moved to the console, flicking a few switches and pushing the lever down, watching the central column move up and down as the TARDIS moved.
