[Strange, to see the Doctor making a voice post. Or, well, it would be strange if you knew him well. As it is, he hasn't been here quite long enough to make it strange or... not strange.

Either way, he sounds a bit distracted as he speaks.]

Two biologically centered events in the first month of my being here? I feel like I've won some sort of ( Read more... )

...

What do you have to offer for that information? People aren't going to just tell you it, you know, unless they're exceedingly stupid.

Which most people here are, I guess.

I think you'll find I know a lot about everything. Simply name the price and I'll attempt to meet it.

[He's also just... sob. So used to getting information just by asking. ITS THE DOCTOR CHARM.]

[VOICE//Private] It was supposed to be voice the entire time...damn autofill... supermistfrog August 10 2011, 23:45:15 UTC
Ah, it depends on what exactly you're planning to use this information for. If you could provide food, that would be nice.

But if you absolutely need it, here-

[He sends out a public post he made a while ago- the only information he's willing to make public.]

[VOICE//Private] oh pffff no problem XD haspaceteeth August 17 2011, 18:57:45 UTC
To get out of here, of course. [He says that rather dismissively, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.] And while I can't immediately provide food, testing the soil for toxins and minerals is high on my list of things to do. Once I come to a conclusion about that, I should be able to see exactly where and how any local flora can thrive.

[He listens to that post Fran sent him, eyes widening and expression getting very thoughtful for a moment before he sits back in his chair, humming under his breath as his brain starts working through all the various possibilities those conversations spurred.]

She.... that's rather ominous, now isn't it? I wonder if dieties have dieties. Most do, in some sense. Either way they seem to consider themselves the indigenous population here...

I do have one question. What was that they said about dying?

[Hey, it's the one that came with bags when he arrived. She was actually on her way back in, so the Doctor could catch a glimpse of her transformation (webbed hands, lure, fins etc in a blue -> pink coloring, though the head and upper torso are the original coloring) before crossing the barrier back into her dry house.]

It's not large enough for the Animus, according to them. The scientists, however, aren't in the Inner City any more, but most likely underground. Some of the events turn out to be an attempt, or convenient chance, to 'flood them out.'

Remember when I told you the Animus are broken? The level of it varies, and when I asked if any of them were close to being whole... One, or some, said too close. Did you manage to talk to the Animus as well?

[The feed stays at voice on his end, but his voice sounds juuuuust a bit amused.] Beautiful! Brilliant! An extraordinary transformation, and not from anything I've seen before. Is it based on a species of fish from your world, or are these forms truly influenced by our imaginations?

Not in the inner city? From what I'd heard the place was mostly a stronghold, am I correct? And whoever ventured inside tended to have... unfortunate things happen to them. What, exactly, happened to cause them to flee? It's all very curious.

[He pauses, thinking, before heaving a little sigh] Yes, I saw that. It's less broken, though, and more a cacophony of voices all fighting to be heard. Hundreds of thousands of voices, some in agreement, others in disagreement, and all wanting to be the one to speak. And while it isn't noise, their thoughts seem to bleed into each other, to layer and change the words.

[Well, she showed what she wanted, so the video isn't exactly needed anymore. Especially when she needs dry clothes. :x ]

Count D said it looked to be a mermaid form influenced from the angler fish. It seems that the general transformations are either gill based, various mer versions, and rarely full transformations into a different species.

Well, if they were in the Inner City, the Animus would know where they were still. I wasn't around to know what happened, or how exactly the defenses are put up, but I think the latter is Animus influenced. I mostly say they're broken because their minds aren't really whole, either. It's not as bad as how they are physically, but the bleeding, as you call it, makes it even worse. It seems to depend on who they talk to on how bad it can be.

[ Here Doctor, have a mermaidified Tonks! ]

You think magic's just a form of technology?

[voice/private] haspaceteeth August 17 2011, 19:14:11 UTC
What most refer to as magic has, in my history, had a perfectly reasonable explanation. Summoning forth shapes, causing insanity, strange thoughts... I've run into 'witches' before, they simply use a form of technology that followed the power of words and names over the power of science and chemicals.

That's an interesting theory. What about magic folk that don't just words? What about those that use a wand or just a wand and a non-verbal spell?

When a person returns, they go back home at the exact moment they were taken from.

Time seems to stop while we are here. [ She continues ] Likewise, if one returns after they are sent home, time continues onward, so it does not work the other way around.

That would explain a lot, actually. Although I doubt time truly stops while you are here. You are merely returned to the very second you were taken, memory... I assume it's erased, considering...

[He trails off, then, into thought.]

I do not think that time actually stops, but, if this world is the compression of time too, then the rules of time must not exist. Time can't truly stop if you are returned there eventually, it just appears that little time passes at all.

[ She'll nod. ] Memory is erased upon leaving. Residents, however, that have went missing and come back before, experience deja vu. This implies that the subconscious does not forget Adstringendum.

Even if the solution isn't exactly--optimal, hmm? Oh, you've always fancied yourself such a genius, the savior of the universe. Really, I can't wait until you've managed to fully doom it. It's only a matter of time.

[For now, he obviously just feels like taunting his old friend rather than discussing actually important things.]

I don't need to fancy myself anything. You know that as well as I do. I'm a genius.

[Ignoring everything else, Master. You are such a troll.]
