[001 || Written / Voice at the end]

[darknessinside]

[After the escape from Yuezhong -- for those on the Spade Pirates crew, he's on watch up in the crow's nest. Things seem calm at the moment, though, which means he's a liiiiittle bored, so have some random jotted down thoughts.]


Well, definitely didn't pick a boring crew to join. And here I thought I knew how to stir up trouble quickly. Then again, traveling from world to world before, I learned how to keep a low profile, too.

Guess that's not happening here. Can't complain, though. Things are good.

The sea's really quiet tonight...

Watching the ocean like this feels like I'm back home again.


[You'll hear a faint splash suddenly, and there's a pause before the writing starts up again, this time accompanied by Riku's muttered voice:]


.......Except we didn't have fish that big. Or—what is that? Is that a whale??

[darknessinside]

I wasn't aware you were one...thought you were a doctor, Doctor.

Is there anything you can't do?

[action]

[lonelygod]

Now you're just being cheeky. I'm a Time Lord. That's what I am. My species, if you want to think of it that way. I'm not human.

And no, no there isn't. Except maybe a few things, but nothing important really.

[action]

[darknessinside]

[Quick grin.]

I do that.

That's not a species I've heard of, though, you definitely look human.

[action]

[lonelygod]

Wrong. You look Time Lord. We came first.

And no, I wouldn't expect you to have, honestly. There aren't many of us, after all. I'm the last one. And...we never did much travelling between realities.

[action]

[darknessinside]

[Oh, well that's new and different from anything he was ever taught. Buuut there are a lot of strange things between all the different worlds, so it's easy enough to accept.]

Huh. I didn't know. But—can't you travel back to a time when there were more of you? And couldn't they come to the future? Or...present, I guess.

[action]

[lonelygod]

No. [His voice changes, suddenly distant, maybe even a little cold.]

That's not possible. Not anymore.

[action]

[darknessinside]

[Whoa. Riku's eyes widen a bit.]

...Right, sorry. That was a dumb question.

[action]

[lonelygod]

No such thing. Just...it's complicated.

[action]

[darknessinside]

Ah, gotcha. I'm familiar with complicated.

[action]

[lonelygod]

Yeah. Good. Complicated...

[Already distracted...]

[action]

[darknessinside]

...

[WELL, Riku isn't really one to pry, so...he'll just wait this one out for a moment, though he does watch the Doctor curiously -- and somewhat warily.]

[action]

[lonelygod]

[It takes him a minute, but she shakes his head and looks to Riku.]

Right. Well. Anyway. Tell me about you. What kinds of things do you like doing?

[action]

[darknessinside]

Mm...well, this is actually right up my alley, to be honest.

[Gestures around them, though what he means is this world in general.]

I always wanted to see other worlds. Granted, I usually get to them by choice...

[He huffs out a light laugh.]

But this is still kind of exciting. Other than world hopping, I like sword fighting. Not that I use an actual sword anymore.

[action]

[lonelygod]

Ahh, well then. That's a step above the average person here.

[The Doctor just grins]

A man after my own heart. I love new worlds. They're splendid.

[action]

[darknessinside]

Some more than others, but yeah. Ending up inside of a whale wasn't too exciting. [He grins back.] You've probably been more places than I have.

[action]

[lonelygod]

Maybe...but I've never impersonated Jonah. How'd you end up in a whale?

[action]

[darknessinside]

It's...kind of a long story. I used to be able to make these—portal kind of things? Like, pathways between worlds. I used one to get into Monstro. Uh, that's the whale. Sora ended up there because his ship was eaten, though.

[Snorts, looking amused.]

[action]

[lonelygod]

Hah, spot of bad luck for him then, wasn't it?

But why'd you go there willingly? Sounds...disgusting.

[action]

[darknessinside]

[To antagonize his best friend and try to lure him over to the Dark Side~ because he was jealous that said best friend was hanging out with an anthropomorphic duck and dog instead of him?

Or something like that, but you know. Details.]

Well...

[Clears his throat. Uhhh what to say.]

I went because Sora was there. But yeah, it was pretty gross. And weird. Inside the thing's mouth there was practically a lake you could swim in, which...now that I think about it, was probably half whale spit or something.
