[The Doctor looks much himself again, though people who know him might think he looks a bit... apprehensive, perhaps. He's doing his best to hide it, though.]

Well, then! Now that that bothersome business is behind us, I thought I'd say a belated 'hello' to the new people among us.

[That was it, that was the hello.]

I'm the Doctor--one of them, anyway.


[But he has another reason for making this video, so even though it appears to end there--he's so welcoming--in reality he switches it over to a private channel directed at his 'family.']

I had a question for those who have been here longer... how does one tell if someone has... ah. Left Asgard?

Also how many of you are there, I shouldn't want to lose track.

[That means companions and Doctors, quick as you like.]

I don't blame him. I like talking to people, too, and -- oh, sorry!

[ Jade flips the feed from audio to video, twitching one of her white dog ears. ]

I'm Jade Harley! Aaaand not really a person of consequence here, I guess. [ Not having to be the hero was actually kind of nice. ] But it's really nice to meet you!

[The ears give him paws--er, that is, pause--but only for a moment before he smiles warmly.]

Miss Harley, very nice to see you as well as meet you. I take it you've been here for some time, then?

[ She matches his warm smile with a wide, earnest one of her own. ]

I have. I'm pretty fond of the place, actually.

[video]

[goesagainst_thegrain]

Really?

[Now he looks a bit surprised.]

Well I suppose it isn't all bad, but... fond of it? Whatever for?

[video]

[nukeoleptic]

The people! There are so many people from so many places doing so many different things. It's amazing.

[ There is a sudden burst of earnestness in her tone. ]

[goesagainst_thegrain]

[Ok, he rather likes her.]

You know, you rather remind me of some of my friends.

And I see what you mean now, yes. This place is quite good for meeting others and finding out about new ways of life.

[It's sort of the reverse of what he generally does, actually... though he tends to prefer his way of meeting new people.]

[video]

[nukeoleptic]

Hehehe. Let me guess: they all have dog ears?

[ She flashes a grin at him - she's rather liked the other iterations of the doctor that she's met, too. ]

You travel across space, too, right?

Not that I noticed, but one or two of them may have had tails.

[Ok not really, he's joking. And chuckling a little along with the words, so she might catch on to that.]

Indeed I do, Miss Harley! In my TARDIS, but I imagine I've already told you all about that.

[video]

[nukeoleptic]

Hehehe, a version of you has, maybe.

[ She tilts her head forward, beaming at the smile. ]

It sounds really convenient.
