[He's doing something. When is he not. The last time these people started showing up, Rose came back for a little while. So many people have showed up between now and then and he's not sure he knows what he feels like now that it's happening again. So he's going to sit and keep working and pretend like he doesn't notice, even though he's actually

[Hello, Doctor. Do you recognise this face? It's been a while for both of you. It is about as scowly and unhappy as you probably remember it.]

You! Do you mind explaining to me what the hell I'm doing here?!

[am_i_being_rude]

[Oh, it is every bit as scowly and unhappy. The Doctor, on the other hand, could barely look more excited.]

You're in the City! It's you, in the City! I haven't got the foggiest - don't know why I'm here either, really, or why I can't seem to leave, but look at you! Being here, all ginger and displeased.

[creepyginger]

Excuse me?

[am_i_being_rude]

Exactly! I mean, granted, you're probably not going to be all that receptive, not recognising the new face and all. Not blonde anymore, no vegetables... But it's still me, Turlough.

[jeilovesyou]

Doctor! [Grinning bespectacled ginger fangirl? Check!] Don't suppose you remember me?

[am_i_being_rude]

I do! You were with all the Js. Jo Jami J...things. I never forget a ginger.

[jeilovesyou]

Yes! [She is more than a little pleased you remembered.] And I'm sure they don't make a habit of forgetting you.

[am_i_being_rude]

[He remembers everyone. Mostly. With at least a bit of memory jogging on occasion.] I am fairly unforgettable. I think frequently because there's a slew of events that are also unforgettable, but I'm claiming the majority reason regardless.

[ So the Doctor, this Doctor anyway, has been nosing around quietly, trying to figure out where he is, how he got there, and where he left the TARDIS. But Ten's energy signature is more than a little distracting, so he's come to see what's going on. ]

What did you manage to do to that thing? [ Because whatever is broken, it's probably your fault. ]

[am_i_being_rude]

[You might be another him but that will still kind of provoke mild indignance. Even if it is a likely assumption...] I haven't done anything to it! I'm trying to fix it. Don't remember my track record as you being much better than mine, anyway.

[astorminhiswake]

Well, that's no fair, I have no idea about your track record. [ Pause. ] Ah, one of them mentioned the hair. [ He gestures. The rooster-tail is distinctive, Ten. ] So you're the next me on, then?

ah, I'm sorry. I misunderstood your energy thing meaning he recognised himself for some reason.

[am_i_being_rude]

A-yup. Tenth version, that's me. [Also his hair was commented on, so he sort of can't help but run a hand through it.] Good mentions?

[lady_wandering]

Do you really think you're going to be able to ignore all of this, today?

[am_i_being_rude]

Would you expect me to try anything else? I happen to be very good at avoidance. Usually.

[lady_wandering]

Really? I always thought you were a little too good at getting into things you shouldn't.

[am_i_being_rude]

Running away from things, running headlong into them - they're the same thing a lot of the time, I think. As it turns out to me, anyway.

[on_her_behalf]

[There's a Wilf in your general vicinity, Doctor. Better check up on him before he starts poking around.]

[am_i_being_rude]

[!!!]

Wilfred Mott, what are you doing here?

[on_her_behalf]

[!!]

Shouldn't startle an old man like that, Doctor.

Just here for a visit. I have to check up on Donna.

[am_i_being_rude]

Donna! Yes, she's here, she's fine! Settling in... quite well, I think, particularly since it's. Donna. How are you? [He doesn't know which when this Wilf is. Maybe vague questions will help.]
