049 - Swapping that last post out with this one!
[Private to the Fifth Doctor and the Marquis]
Doctor! Doctor, are you alright-- where are you? I heard you were here the moment I got in, and then-- Oh, but I've picked a marvelous time to come back. I'd suspect this flood to be your doing, you know, if I weren't so used to the Admiral's novice-level piloting by now.
And Marquis-- are you well? I'm so sorry I had to leave like that. Believe me, if I had any say in the matter, I'd have talked to you first, said my goodbyes...
I'll understand if you're upset with me, but... I hope one day you'll forgive me.
[OOC: The handwriting is a match for Romana's, 'cause the Master... thinks ahead and shit. ACTION SPAM FOR THE FIFTH DOCTOR TO FOLLOW]

How have you been since we parted? I know you were here before, have you been happy? Where did you have to go?
no subject
Oh... that one's still here, then. Where are you, Doctor? I can help you look for him. We-- we've... I find I understand him a little bit better after staying here.
And oh, Doctor, I can't talk about where I've been. I know you never put much stock into the rules of our people, but I cannot discuss your own future with you. Just know that I'm pleased to see you again, Doctor, from... happier times.
no subject
I would very much appreciate your help in finding him Romana, I'm not ashamed to admit that I find his current regeneration quite jarring... Where are you?
no subject
it's my fault.I'm on the deck, Doctor.
no subject
...Or we could have tea first, then check his cabin? I'm on level five, room two.
ACTION
[And the action begins! Quite cheerfully, the Master heads down to the Fifth Level, coming to the door that he already recognizes to be the Doctor's-- to be the TARDIS. He knocks]
Doctor?
ACTION
Romana!
[The Doctor seizes the Masters shoulders, and gives them a happy squeeze, looking him over!]
You look wonderful! It's so good to see you my dear friend!
ACTION
[He peeks into the TARDIS and breaks into a large grin] It's good of the Admiral to let you bring her here. My own was...
[He shakes his head and smiles sadly] Nevermind that. Tea?
ACTION
[He steps back to let the Master into the TARDIS, the tea brewing away behind him as he does so.]
Well, do come in, and Yes! I'll go pour us some Tea now! If I recall correctly It was milk and sugar in yours wasn't it?
ACTION
[He steps into the TARDIS, following after the Doctor]
Milk and sugar still, Doctor. The years haven't changed me that much. [He brushes a hand along the TARDIS console gently] How long have you been here? Are you finding yourself well on the Barge?
ACTION
Oh, I've been here a few months, or, well, more or less considering which of my incarnations you ask.
[He mixes in the milk and the sugar, then turns, holding two mugs, one of which he offers to the Master.]
And... I'm still sort of working on finding myself at all to be honest, but it's interesting here if nothing else. A new adventure.
ACTION
ACTION
[He takes a long sip of tea]
ACTION
Oh, Doctor, it's simply been ages since I've had a good look around the TARDIS. [He quirks a brow] Do you still have the zoo?
ACTION
Of course! Would you like to see it again? Surely it's not been that long for you?
ACTION
Oh, absolutely! You've no idea how long it's been for me since--
Well. Suffice it to say, it's been a long time.
ACTION
[He darts over excitedly and offers the Master his arm in a gentlemanly way.]
Just this way!
ACTION
Why thank you! Lead the way, Doctor.
[There's a teasing, familiar tone to his voice as he says that-- he figures it's how Romana would say it, anyway.]
ACTION
Certainly, it's just through here...
[He releases her arm briefly to go to open the door to the zoo, and hauls it open, before standing aside to let her in first]
ACTION
It's as wonderful as ever, Doctor.
ACTION
Isn't it? I don't get to show this part of the TARDIS to as many people as I'd like...
[He looks a little ruefully out into the enclosure once again.]
...I'm glad you remembered it.
ACTION
[Of course, he hardly ever got to see the zoo before. Oh, when he'd stolen the TARDIS, he had, but other than that? It wasn't as though the opportunity arose terribly often. He smiles sheepishly, clasping his hands behind his back[
Unfortunately, it seems I've forgotten where everything here is. [Then, his face lights up-- as he's remembering an exhibit that'll take them quite a ways away from the door]
Oh! Do you still have the quagga, Doctor? I'd really like to see them again.

Oh dear. The flood. Are you... how are you coping?
Private
Why did you come back?
