Not a lone jelly baby, anymore!

do tell?

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

A new friend, Jack. Who understands.

[brandedsparrow.livejournal.com]

Glad t'ear it, mate. Trustworthy, this friend?

[brandedsparrow.livejournal.com]

Ah. Which Doctor would this be, then? I've seen a few o'them round, and spoken with...wot...the one who calls 'isself the Tenth.

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

This one is Four, I think. He's got curls and this long, long scarf, and always carries a packet of jelly babies with him.

I met the Tenth, too, interestingly enough. He and the Master got into a huge big arguement, which would've been funny if I weren't so worried about getting caught in the crossfire.

[brandedsparrow.livejournal.com]

Ah, now, him I've most certainly noticed. Hard not to, really. *grins*

Oh, that's a bugger. You all right, then? And who is this 'Master', mate? Don't like the sound of him, wot calls himself somthin' like that...

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

Guess that's true. He's definitely not one you can forget. Not easily, anyway. *grins*

Oh, no, I'm fine. At the time I was stuck as an eight year old, so I think Ten was trying to make sure the Master didn't get any funny ideas.

Honestly, Jack? He wasn't so bad. I mean, he was, but he was very up front about it.

[brandedsparrow.livejournal.com]

Heh. *gestures slightly towards his beads, etc* Know the feelin', mate.

Stuck as an eight year old? Oh aye, I remember now--seemed t'be happenin' all over the place. Glad to have avoided that one. Funny ideas? *frowns, putting 'funny ideas' together with 'aneight yearold'*

Up front is good.

Did ye change yer appearance again, mate?

Jelly baby?

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

I had a talk with Four, recently. About jelly babies.

I'm the only jelly baby of my colour left. But I'm not alone. Not anymore.

[aces-are-rare.livejournal.com]

Wise man, that Four. Or maybe I should say wise guy?

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

*laughs* He's a bit of both I'd say.

[aces-are-rare.livejournal.com]

He always is, no matter what face and outfit he is wearing.

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

Part of his charm, I guess.

You know, the funniest thing happened the other day. The Master, of all people, started talking to me. And so was one of the Tenth Doctors. So, anyway, the two of them start tearing into each other like a bunch of five year olds.

It would've been funny if I weren't so worried about getting caught in the crossfire.

[aces-are-rare.livejournal.com]

The Master? *shudders* There's someone I haven't run into for a while. Fortunatally. I understand worrying about crossfire. People die when that bastard's around.

The Doctor and the Master have a .... complex... relationship.

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

He told me as much, actually. I believe he said that, in particular, he enjoyed dismemberment.

I gathered as much about their relationship. Ten, it seems, was convinced that the Master was trying to make a convert of me. Particularly after he found out I wasn't completely human.

[walkineternity.livejournal.com]

I'm quite certain this is entirely due to my presence, am I right? *winks and grins knowingly*

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

Yes, well, you and some others. But mostly you, yes. *beams*

[walkineternity.livejournal.com]

Ah, splendid. I'm glad that not only could I help, but you've found others to turn to as well.

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

Funnily enough, Doctor, one of them is one of your companions. A future one, I think.

Her name is Ace.

[walkineternity.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, we have met. She's a lovely girl, but then, I always pick my companions well. From what I know of her, you two would seem to get on swimmingly, and I'm glad to hear that's the case.

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

Now why doesn't that surprise me? *laughs*

And insofar as companions go, Doctor, I know for a fact that you only choose the very best.

[walkineternity.livejournal.com]

Yes, I do; well, I must choose the best, my lifestyle calls for it. It's not always what I'd prefer, but we often tend to get ourselves into spots of bother, and I can't have ill-equipped or ill-prepared companions with me. Which of my other companions have you met?

[thestraychild.livejournal.com]

I understand completely.

I met a Rose, once. She was very nice and very much in love with her version of you. From what I could gather you were both quite happy.

I guess that's something to look forward to, isn't it?
