I humbly request that no one enter the CES from 8:00 to 8:30 pm standard Barge time. I'll be [destroying things] conducting experiments. If anyone has plans I can adjust my schedule to accommodate. [Pleasant pleasant.]

Talk you out of what?

Private

[championoftime]

You must promise me you won't breathe a word of this to anyone else. Please. I need to be able to trust that someone won't go brandishing it, but believe it or not I need the shoulder to lean on.

Private

[stopthat_destro]

...all right.

Rassilon is under the impression that he doesn't need to graduate. That he needs to put no effort into it, because Omega will take him as soon as they discover a way to salvage Gallifrey.

Considering that he attacked Narvin only for being with a human, and he's made things difficult for a number of people close to me I'm having difficulty reigning in my frustration.

[He's starting to sound calmer at least. He's getting some help.]

[Let's say this is prior to Dallas discovering Johnny has left to avoid the reaction at this point in time.]

Sure, Doc. [Pause.] Why?

[championoftime]

I've had a bad day.

So I want to build things, and then blow them up.

You can help me with the latter if you help me with the former. And vice versa.

[failed_bluff]

Man, that sounds right up my alley.

...Doesn't seem so much yours, but sure thing, Doc. Right now?

[championoftime]

I go to all sorts of alleys. Why know one alley if you can't know more of them. [Or Ace couldn't have gotten away with making so many explosives.]

Now would be fine.

He's already threatened to have me murdered over his business twice.

[Not that Stildyne sounds upset about this, only curious.]

So. This worth my certain death?

[Said lightly because if he lets the Lord High President an inch under his skin it's going to lead to at least one of them dead.]

Private

[championoftime]

I know. He's told me. And consider yourself, because the man somehow found the capacity to put the entire universe at risk in an unquestionable gesture of post traumatic madness. ...But for some inexplicable reason I still find myself concerned for the man. I don't believe I could explain it.

[Sigh.I noted a closeness that he had with another warden. His former closest friend, Omega. The man is currently wardening my brother. At the time that I noticed, I encouraged him to declare his feelings to him. I don't know if it assisted in any way, but they did come to be together, and he makes no small secret of it

[Stildyne breathes in through his nose, out through his mouth]

Well. It's not as if I had much chance at him listening anyway.

Two things: how certain are you that his lover hasn't made promises to that effect? I'm not equipped to stop a prison break on a Barge of this size and lack of security.

Second: How does the lover feel about the graduation issue? Agree with him about the breaking in? Or want to see him out?

You see, I don't see how it would work in any case. You shouldn't even have to act. The ship chases after inmates that escape and aren't randomly dismissed. It's wrecked in the process of doing so before.

Otherwise, I don't know. I've not spoken to him yet. I only discovered this bit of information from Rassilon earlier today. And for care of keeping myself from meddling further I decided to come to you.

[Private]

[championoftime]

[Just the pissiest face before he pokes his tongue out. THERE. See! It's still attached.]

I'm really very quite upset about something Rassilon said. Perhaps I oughtn't get you involved any further, but you do usually make me feel better.

[Private]

[championoftime]

[Nggg, a little bit of guilt. Because he likes talking to Braxiatel. He makes him feel better when he's getting angry. And he's calming down a bit now.

Ungh. But he needs someone to talk to.]

He is. He feels that any change is completely unnecessary and these lesser beings are deserving of absolutely no respect. And is furthermore convinced he'll be swept away to Gallifrey from this place to begin his rule again.

[Private]

[thegooddrjones]

Are you alright, Doctor?

[Private]

[championoftime]

[And later, when his tiny ball of rage has subsided back to it's tea loving self.]

Better. Much better. [Sigh.]

Would you- Would you ever promise an inmate that you would get them off the ship? Would you allow them to believe it? After all that's happened?

[Private]

[thegooddrjones]

Well, that's good at least.

[Martha is made of frown right now, Doctor, and it shows.]

Of course not. The Barge would simply not allow him to leave or they would go bring him back. It's what happened every time there was an escape or someone went overboard. You can't leave the Barge until you graduate. Not and go back to your life anyway.

[Private]

[championoftime]

The Master was brought back, after his escape. I don't know that it was the same one, but he was returned.
