023: See ya, Doc.

[Jack can be found at the bar, already well into a few rounds of drinks, ensconced in a corner booth. He doesn't look like he'll be moving for awhile. After a time, he eyes the journal thoughtfully, then picks it up and toggles the switch to make a voice entry.]Not sure how many of you would have noticed by now, but... the Doctor's gone. Guess they ( Read more... )

oh doctor my doctor, was fun while it lasted

[ a little earlier in the evening, buffy'll stop by his table. ]

Sure you need anything else? You've had...[ a lot already. ]

captain_in_you March 17 2011, 07:40:24 UTC

[Jack just flashes her his biggest, brightest... fakest smile ever.] No thanks, I'm doin' just fine. Just keep 'em comin', right?

slaying March 17 2011, 12:02:49 UTC

Oh, come on. Get off it. I heard the post -- this is a boat we're both in, mister.

captain_in_you March 19 2011, 05:02:35 UTC

[Yeah, he should have known better. The smile fades and he just nudges the empty glass toward her, asking silently for a refill.]

I know. Sorry. Can't blame me for tryin', though, right?

[Archie is at the bar, but he overhears the voice entry and turns around, concerned.]

Which doctor?

captain_in_you March 17 2011, 07:41:53 UTC

[Jack lifts his head and looks over, trying to figure out who's talking to him first.] Which doctor? The Doctor. Not just any doctor 'round.

noprevaricating March 17 2011, 15:47:30 UTC

[Archie picks up his glass and walks over to Jack, settling into a seat beside him.] Did he have a name, this doctor?

captain_in_you March 19 2011, 05:05:57 UTC

[There's a short, harsh laugh at that.] He probably did, once. I never knew it. He's only the Doctor. My Doctor.

Isn't that just the way of the place?

[voice] captain_in_you March 17 2011, 07:42:48 UTC

Yeah, pretty much. People comin' and goin' all the time, right? Should'a figured it'd happen sooner or later.

[voice] gravity_splode March 17 2011, 21:58:40 UTC

Yep. And it's not like anyone tells who's gonna be the next to go.

[voice] captain_in_you March 19 2011, 05:10:43 UTC

Course not. That'd make it easier on us, and who'd wanna do that? [There's the sound of glass clinking as he takes another drink.] Kinda thought we might be lucky and leave together since we got here together. But nope.

[ spike misses what jack was saying to the journal, but stumbles upon him as he's making his way through the bar. ]

Long day, mate?

action; captain_in_you March 17 2011, 07:49:00 UTC

[Jack tosses back what's left of the drink in his hand and pushes the glass away.] Long year, more like.

action; univalent March 17 2011, 08:07:14 UTC

[ not bothering to ask, spike drops himself into the chair across from jack. ]

Not that we all haven't had long years in this sodding place, but I've got time. Go on.

action; captain_in_you March 17 2011, 09:01:20 UTC

[Jack pushes the bottle toward him, not knowing or caring if the vampire drinks alcohol or not. He looks enough like John, he can pretend for now.]

You know how it is. Someone goes home, leaves you behind, same old same old. We got here the same time, kinda thought we'd leave together. Shows me what I know, right?

And I'm just sick of this place now.

[Okay so Cameron is trying to make a habit of trolling the bar regularly here. Not quite drinking all the time, but definitely hanging out there. Sie's decided this is an apt time to be there. Talking with people... doing things. It is for this reason that sie pulls up next to Jack there and-]

Hello - would you mind if I asked what you're drinking?

[Because it seems to have been a lot, well, drunk]

captain_in_you March 17 2011, 07:49:41 UTC

[Jack looks in contemplation at the glass, then back up at the new person with a faint hint of a smile.] Y'know, I really have no idea. Wanna join me?

kissdiet March 17 2011, 15:38:40 UTC

I would, actually. [There person seems nice and... well, pheromones and leave it at that. But mostly, sie just wants to talk with all the people. So sie does pull up into a seat next to Jack, but feels sie should clarify-] Sit with you, I meant. The drink itself... without knowing what's in it I'm a bit hesitant to try.

captain_in_you March 19 2011, 05:34:21 UTC

[Jack lifts the bottle, sniffs, and raises an eyebrow.] Probably hypervodka, if you wanna take the chance. Live a little. [He pushes the bottle toward hir, along with a mostly-clean glass. Having traveled the universe quite a bit, he's at least decently familiar with the concept of androgyny, and doesn't really bother trying to figure out the gender of the person sitting next to him. Sie's pretty, and that's all that matters to Jack.]
