I really didn't intend to do this yet but he gets to me

[cluttered]

Well, it figures you couldn't resist me! I'm really not surprised, my dear. I am so incredibly charming, after all, and you've seen more than enough, don't you worry.

You're welcome.

Now let's go have a look around! Can't sit around here all day. Unless sitting means watching more of me, I could put up with that. Not yet, you say? All right-y then, I will see you later. Or you could come along, if you'll make less of a fuss that way. Stop wasting time! We've got people to meet, I hear!

[ That's a call for all of you friends who are bound to be lurking out there to come forward, for the record. ]

That would depend upon how quickly she watches them. You mentioned she has just witnessed you fight the Zygons?

[cluttered]

Yes, but she's gotten further ahead now. Working on this... hand.

ELDRAD MUST LIVE.

[janisthorn]

Oh. My mundane says you have not far to go, then.

[Leela frowns slightly.]

It is odd to think of my life in such a way - of our pasts and of our futures before we have experienced them. Eventually you shall pass where my mundane has me currently. We have just helped Doctor Marius defeat the nucleus, and K9 has joined us.

[cluttered]

Ahh, K9. She has seen K9.

[janisthorn]

He is...an odd dog. But I think he shall prove himself useful.

[cluttered]

Oh, he will. He's incredibly useful. So much that they got rid of him because he made things too easy, according to the mundane.

[janisthorn]

Romana and I will have two versions of him between us. I would not classify anything the Celestial Intervention Agency has asked me to do as "too easy."

[cluttered]

Oh, well... I have no idea about any of that.

She's reached you now, though.

[janisthorn]

They receive a mention in your ordeal on Gallifrey. It was they who sent you on all those missions, even during your exile.

On Gallifrey I shall have to work with them rather more than I like.

[cluttered]

I know they did. I know of them, just not what they're going to do to you.

[janisthorn]

[Leela looks down, embarrassed.]

Oh. Well. I mean, of course you would know, but there's the question of...well, the nature of who knows how much is so confusing in conversations like this. Between what we know and what they know, I mean.

[cluttered]

Oh, yes. Considering she knows some of my life but not all I don't exactly remember how I met Adric or got K9. I just know I did. It's interesting.

[janisthorn]

Being in someone else's head is a difficult thing to get used to.

[cluttered]

Getting used to it? You have to do that?

[janisthorn]

He is not the sort of mundane I would have chosen. If I had to choose one at all.

[cluttered]

Looks like choosing is always the last thing we get to do.

[janisthorn]

"Pup" is short for "puppet," is it not?

[cluttered]

I do believe so. Very demeaning.

[janisthorn]

Indeed. It suggests we are in some way subordinate to them. I have observed my mundane's behavior. He is not the sort I would want to leave in charge of anybody.

[cluttered]

What sort is he then?

[janisthorn]

The sort who is very prone to procrastinating and wasting time.

[cluttered]

Oh.

I do that, I think. Is it that bad?

[janisthorn]

It does tend to mean spending vast amounts of time in limbo.

[cluttered]

Not for me.

[janisthorn]

You are the exception to a great number of rules.
