[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!))

un: bright

[abrightboy]

I know you said you have experience with aliens, so I’m going to guess 3.

Tell me more about the psychopath.

un: cupkate

[bossyboiler]

I'm going to guess one. Emeralds are pretty but I can't imagine an entire planet being made of them or any other singular material.

[ Because Bright already guessed three! ]

[thedoctorsmate]

Went to a dinner party with her, actually.
The psychopath's blonde, 5'8", and thinks she's some sort of warrior princess, or something.

[thedoctorsmate]

You might be surprised.
Wasn't emeralds, though, it was diamonds.
The most expensive place you can never touch.

[abrightboy]

Callisto? Is she still here? That’s great!

un: chosewell

[failedpromise]

1. I've never read a book.
2. I've never drunk coffee.
3. I've never seen the stars.

Text; un: carrots

[whisperedone]

i have never lived in a city
i have a seeing eye dragon
i have six siblings

who is agatha christy?

[bossyboiler]

Was it pretty?

[thedoctorsmate]

Mate, I think we've got very different ideas about what that word means.

[thedoctorsmate]

Okay, so... two of those are incredibly depressing.
Sure you're not playing two lies and a truth?

[thedoctorsmate]

Get out of town, Bugs!
You haven't got a seeing-eye dragon.
Have you?

And if you have, I guess that answers what rock you've been living under...
She's an author.
Famous one.
Does mysteries.

[thedoctorsmate]

Gorgeous!
Dangerous as all get out, though.
Extonic radiation?
Whole place was flooded with it.
But they had a nice leisure place I was staying in.

[failedpromise]

(Depressing?

...Oh.)

If it helps, I'm not Human.

(And she may be playing a bit of a trick-plenty of books in her databases, but she's never done the physical act of picking a book up and reading it.)

[whisperedone]

his name is kruos, apparently he spits light.

mystery books sound fun, i have not read any before. also, forgive me, but what do bugs have to do with it?

[thedoctorsmate]

[It only possibly helps.]

Depends, doesn't it?
Not human in the sense of you're some sort of program is one thing, and I'd guess the coffee.
Not human in the sense of you're alien that lives 300-ft below your planet's surface, and I'd guess the stars.
Not human in the sense of you're made of, like... vapor, and I'd guess the books.

[thedoctorsmate]

Oh, my god, you've got a pet dragon!
That's mad!
I love it.
Is it the city, then?
Country boy.
Expect you'd need a lot of room for a dragon.

Bugs, like, Bugs Bunny.
It's a cartoon character, if you know what those are?
Funny animals doing silly things?
He's a rabbit and he love carrots.
Just thought with your username, you know?

[whisperedone]

i have no siblings that I know of, that’s the answer.
we did find kruos in the city, though. he is less a pet and more a charge until we can get him home, he’s still young

i am unfamiliar but animals used for humor makes sense. as it happens, i hate carrots.

[thedoctorsmate]

You've got a baby seeing-eye dragon?
How did you even find a dragon in a city?
What sorts of cities are you visiting?

Why'd you go and make your username carrots if you hate them, then?

[whisperedone]

the capital of the country. we found him in some tunnels and suspect he hatched there. other than that, i couldn’t say.

the man who taught me how to use the phone was very nice and very patient, but it was a long day. he gave me many options for the username. i panicked.

you can’t have met someone with two hearts, right?

[thedoctorsmate]

Do you want to be carrots?
Maybe you can change it.

[Oh, sweetheart! That's... adorable.]

Can, too, have met him.
He's a weird alien thing.
Looks like a skinny bloke with a hair thing going on, but listen in, and you've got the two there.
No idea why, mind you.
Could be romantic and say that means he just gets to love twice as much, right?

[failedpromise]

You know you're supposed to be guessing the lie, right?

(Cortana might be laughing to herself. As depressing as it seems, two of those things really are true.

Not that she's going to drop any more hints.)

[thedoctorsmate]

Fine.
I hope you've seen the stars, so I'm guessing that's the lie.

[bossyboiler]

Not a kind of radiation I've ever heard of but I'll take your word that it's dangerous. How many planets have you been to?

[failedpromise]

Considering I've functioned as a starship's AI, you would be correct.

[whisperedone]

i have no idea how
there are worse things to be associated with, but no i would rather not be carrots.

i'm not sure that's how that works, but it's a lovely sentiment.
i just cannot help wondering where he keeps the second one if he also still has two lungs.
