Do you want to die?

I'm sure you can give a variety of answers.

[inthemoodnow]

Most people could, if you present 'em with enough variables and too much time to think about it.

[goddamnemperor]

Your first death was real to you.

[inthemoodnow]

...impressive. So what's your deal?

[goddamnemperor]

The Doctor and I are alike, and yet we are not. We see time, but we see different things. He travels in it. I can pluck out the timelines.

[inthemoodnow]

I don't give you time-hives, too, do I?

[goddamnemperor]

[...pause. consider.]

No.

[inthemoodnow]

Thaaaat's always good to hear.

*holds out a hand to him*

Captain Jack Harkness, just for formality's sake. Nice to meet you.

[goddamnemperor]

[his face goes blank and after a beat, he simply touches the palm of your hand]

Leto Atreides the II, God Emperor of the Imperium.

[inthemoodnow]

*awww, have a friendly handshake, it seems like you need one, kid*

Leto, huh? So where in time and space is the Imperium?

[goddamnemperor]

The Imperium is the known universe. Not in your timeline though.

[inthemoodnow]

So, like, your known universe. Gotcha.

Any particular reason that you were surveying the crowd today?

[goddamnemperor]

Boredom.

[inthemoodnow]

And that was the first thing that came to mind?

[goddamnemperor]

First? No. Many things come to mind.

[inthemoodnow]

*a short laugh*

If this was the one that you finally decided on, I'm kinda morbidly curious about what the others must've been.
