1 / video / a rose by any other name
[ The people who live with the Eleventh Doctor might recognise what’s visible of the interiour of their kitchen. Aside from that, there is Eleven himself on the screen, along with his predecessor the Tenth and the companion Rose Tyler.
And Eleven seems... Well. Quite excited, with the expression on his face and the way he flails his hands around as he speaks. ]
So you were grey-- Tell me, what did it feel like? Did you even realise what sort of state you were in at all? Was it quick or slow, were you beginning to sense something before it blacked out. If it did. It wasn’t instant, right? That wouldn’t really make much sense, would it? No. So--
[ excuse you doctor. while it might have not been a big deal at the time, now that they’re back, well... rose just feels weird. squinting just a bit, she shakes her head. ]
Hold up, can we just have a moment, yeah? For starters, how long were we out?
[ because boy things look really… calm.... ]
Now my time perception isn’t exactly the best being here, but... It looks like we’ve been -- grey -- for weeks. How long has it been, Doctor?
[ Eleven pouts for a moment, but begrudgingly lets the topic move on. ]
Not weeks, just a few. A couple.
…A couple.
[ how is that not a bad thing why aren’t you worried about that. weirdo. ]
Hold on, is that on?
[The Tenth Doctor’s the one who notices the recording first, looking right at it with his eyebrows scrunched together.]
How long has it been like that?
Yes, a-- Oh?
[ And there goes Eleven’s focus as well, and he just looks at the the screen for a moment, before he smiles. ]
Oh, that happens sometimes! Nothing to worry about. Hello, Asgard.
[ A pause. ]
--Doctor, that reminds me about something. I was told they used to call us by numbers, before.
Numbers? Us? You mean like... to tell us apart? Oh, that’s so linear, so human. Though I suppose it would make sense, considering the high majority of those here are human. What does that make me, Ten? And I suppose you’re Eleven? Unless one of us is number 1 and the other 2 to make it simple. You know, I don’t know how I like that, not sure if I do. Though I suppose it would make it easier every time someone shouts “Doctor!” but we’ve dealt with that sort of thing before, haven’t we?
[ sorry for interrupting, but: ]
That just makes things complicated, don’t you think? [ i mean really ] You’re both the Doctor, it’s not like you can just change your name, right?
[ essentially, they’ll both be doctor to her at least. ]
[ Eleven shakes his head. ]
We’re not changing name, it’ll be more like... nicknames! A lot of people use nicknames. And I think, Doctor, that Ten and Eleven would be best, just in case any earlier versions pop up. Or later versions. You never know. So, Asgard!
[ Beaming, he claps his hands and rubs them together, before he points at his past self. ]
He’s Ten, and I’m Eleven. Just in case we’re both around and you’re only addressing one of us, or something. Because we’ll both respond to Doctor, so in case it doesn’t matter which you get, or if you want both of us, just use that.
[ And he waves his hands, as if that settles it all and it’s a piece of cake. ]
[Fine, it’s time to talk to the recording camera. Ten shoots Eleven a look before turning to look into it.]
Really, if you can, just call us Doctor. It’s our name. Or names. Tenses get a bit difficult when there are two of yourself, anyway, I suppose it’ll do for now.
Oh, and this is Rose. [Turning to her now, because since they’re doing introductions why not?] She’s not me but she’s no less important.
[ flashes the device a bright grin, waving with both hands ]
Hullo! I’ve met some of you before but I don’t think I had the chance to introduce myself properly. [ for... reasons. ] Sorry about these two bein’ here. If you think dealing with one’s bad, well...
[ charming. smile. at the doctors. ]
Can’t imagine both at the same time.
[ And, at the same time, they turn to her with indignant expressions and exclaim: ]
OI.
[ After which the bracelet ends the recording. ]
((Eleventh Doctor, Tenth Doctor and Rose! Tags may be a bit of a wait at first, but all three will be tagging!))
And Eleven seems... Well. Quite excited, with the expression on his face and the way he flails his hands around as he speaks. ]

[She nods]
A party sounds like fun. Are you having it at your place?
[Video]
[Video]
[Was that a hint?]
In any case, isn't there a public center you can use?
[Video]
You can rent a studio at the theatre, I suppose it's worth a look.
[Video]
We'll need lots of room to decorate.
