[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!))

It means I think you might be a bad luck charm for people.
Some people are just like that.
And haven't some people been here for more than a year?
That's a long wait, isn't it?

[aelwyn_aberration]

Ah. Gaslighting. Adorable.

No, it's really not, all thing's considered.

[thedoctorsmate]

[That's not a particularly popular term in her day, which just makes Donna puzzle at it for a moment before dismissing it. She doesn't understand what that means in context here, so she's going to ignore it until she can look into it and decide how offended she ought to be.]

What are your considerations, then?
Lot of things can happen in a year.
Lot of things have happened in just the month and a half I've been here.

[aelwyn_aberration]

How old are you, Donna Noble? I can never tell with humans.

Regardless, I will make the bold assumption that you are older than one and a half years old. When was the last time you disappeared without a single trace? If a year's a long time to wait to vanish, I must imagine it'd be a lot of times.

[thedoctorsmate]

Funny enough, yeah.
It does happen a lot more than I'd like for me.
And my point was more that you're being some sort of edgy, nihilistic teen with the whole 'everyone disappears eventually.'
After what you've said you've gone through, not suprised, but honestly.

[aelwyn_aberration]

Come back to me after every friend you've made here disappears. Or after you disappear. Just this month an eleven year old I was looking out for vanished without a trace. But no, fuck her, who cares about that, right? I'm just so paranoid.

And also, babe, you have no idea what I've been through! After what you've been through, being raised by rabid pigs I presume, I can only guess what's caused you to act like you can make grand sweeping statements about me. Overinflated ego, perhaps?

Though to be fair, yes, I have also disappeared without a trace at least three times now in my own world. That's not the norm, though and I think it's important to acknowledge that.

[thedoctorsmate]

You're giving really mixed signals, mate.
I try to be sympathetic about something horrible, you act like it doesn't matter.
I'm not about something else without any particulars attached until now, and I'm suddenly a monster.
You know, what?
I think we've both got better people to be talking to.
This whole thing was supposed to be for fun.
This isn't.

Let me know when ~sympathetically~ talking at someone and ignoring everything they say works, it's clearly a new frontier in therapy.
