[network/open] Set During the Deep Event Prompt

[thedoctorsmate]

Who: Donna Noble
Username: supertemp
Warnings: None

Show of digital hands, who hates this?
I didn't sign up to be stuck in a flat with a psychopath, personally.
Dunno about the rest of you lot.

So, in the interest of not going insane...
Games.
Two truths and a lie.
Rules are like it sounds.
List two true things about yourself, then one lie.
Don't say what's true or not.
People have to guess that.

I'll go first.

1. I've been to a planet made entirely of emeralds.
2. My best friend has two hearts.
3. I've met Agatha Christie.

((ooc: Everyone please feel free to threadjack around, have your characters respond to each other, rather than Donna!))

[demonicmiracle]

Can people not have hobbies anymore?

[thedoctorsmate]

Not ones that involve spinning thread, Aurora.

[demonicmiracle]

It's not as if it's hard.

And Aurora had a spinning wheel, totally different. Kids these days and their modern technology

[Now he's taking the piss.]

[thedoctorsmate]

Says the bloke walking around in fancy sunglasses with god knows how much gel in his hair.

[demonicmiracle]

I've never used hair gel a day in my life

[It's mousse.

It used to be miracles, but now he has to slum it.]

[thedoctorsmate]

Product, then.
You can't tell me your hair stands up like that naturally.
That's the real lie here.

[demonicmiracle]

It might do, some people are just born lucky

[thedoctorsmate]

Or maybe it's Maybeline.
Come off it, you!

[demonicmiracle]

Is Maybelline making hair products now?

[This is why he only has one friend.]

[thedoctorsmate]

You're lucky I can't actually get to you right now, or I'd throw a shoe at your stupid hair.

[demonicmiracle]

Well, if it makes you feel any better it looks like shit right now

[thedoctorsmate]

Reckon we all look a bit off.
I didn't stock up on hair care products or food.
Bit worried about the food, depending on how long all this goes on for.

[demonicmiracle]

If you're in a building with other folks, they might be willing to share.
I'd offer, but I know you're not where I am. It's only me and the roommate here.

[He wouldn't offer, actually, but Aziraphale would, which is basically the same thing.

Calling him a 'roommate' feels weird, too, but he has no idea how else to define the relationship.]

[thedoctorsmate]

That's lonely.
Do you at least like your roommate?
Can I trade you.
Promise Callisto's great.
Brilliant.
Never a better roommate!

[demonicmiracle]

[You know when a question that should be simple is actually incredibly complicated? That's about where Crowley is at when Donna asks if he likes his roommate.]

We're mates back home, actually

[That's probably not overstepping....]

And you've just said your roommate is a psychopath. Even if I could trade, I much prefer who I've got now

[thedoctorsmate]

Totally a joke!
You know how it is.
Come up with little pet names for each other.
She's the psychopath.
I'm the... not letting the psychopath throw herself out a window without a fight.
Loads of fun you'll have with her.
Never a dull minute.

[demonicmiracle]

I suppose if she was that much of a problem you'd not have stopped her from throwing herself out the window

[thedoctorsmate]

Right!
And it's the principle of the thing, honestly.
What would it say about me if I just let my roommate break her neck?
I nearly got killed in one of those window cleaning machines once.
Heights?
No, thank you!

[demonicmiracle]

I'd let my roommate break their neck if I didn't know them

[That says more about him than it does about Donna, probably.]

Does that mean you got stuck with the Vast, if you're a bit scared of heights?

[thedoctorsmate]

[It says a lot about him, but she assumes he's being sarcastic.]

What do you mean 'stuck with'?
Haven't got stuck with any of those, as far as I know.
