[ Someone's been a bit AWOL for the past few days. Not that it's uncommon for this particular blonde to keep a low-profile from time to time, but this is a bit different. To not have seen her recently, especially with the shit storm that had become of her friends? You'd think something like that would have Rose neck-deep in it. Especially when it came to telling off ('helping/calming down') the Doctor(s).

Regardless, she's here now, looking a lot younger than she has in months. Actually, she just looks younger in general. A good handful of years younger. She looks a bit cross, too, brows pulled down to pinch over heavy amounts of mascara. It's not much to note, but a select few residents might recognize a rather specific set of clothes she's got on. ]

Yeah alright, it was funny for the first five minutes; you can send me back now. London. England, Earth. Not Asgard. --This can't seriously be Asgard, can it?

[ Focus, Rose. But more to the point, and to herself; ] Doctor, you'd better be here.


[ ooc; Rose has been cursed back to her season 2 self, and will be stuck as such for about a week or so. And obviously, all memories of Asgard and it's inhabitants have been wiped until she snaps back to normal. Have fun with a much more antagonistic/optimistic/pre-soul-crushed-dimension-hopping-Rose. ]

Comments

[Irving is somewhat subdued: Christmas planning has cheered him, but he doesn't really feel up to spanners in the works. But he sees that no one's responded yet, so he'll bite the initial bullet.

He's pleasantly formal and relaxed.]

I'm terribly sorry: but I'm afraid we don't have the capacity to do that just at the moment. Or indeed, at all. We'd be at home ourselves, if that were the case. I certainly have other things to do.

[badwolf]

[ It's a bit of a shame this curse has taken upon her really. Just after she'd finally found out who this mystery charmer was, too. She'd been so ready to press for juicy, sibling details, and then this went and happened.

As it is, she just looks confused. And maybe a little put out. ]

What do you mean we don't-- No, sorry, I have a way, I just. Need to find a ship and her pilot. A specific one.

[becauseichooseto]

[Oh, well. He looks a bit sheepish.]

Well, he's here and so is she, though she's not quite a ship, I'm afraid. Although she pulls it off well, considering.

Rose?

[Color Clara concerned. This is weird, even by their standards.]

You should know we can't get back. You're the one that first told me when I arrived.

[badwolf]

[ Ooookay, that's a bit weird. Not that she's not into having people know her- and sort of seem friendly (because Clara does, even if the concern on her face is making it's recipient uneasy). But this isn't really the time for it. ]

Sorry... I don't think I did? Unless- I mean, unless I do in the future at some point. Which would be your past. M-maybe?

[Perma-Video]

[faceofbeau]

Rose? [Have a confused look, concerned look, because Rose- well, she looks different. Younger, if it were possible, more reminiscent of the way she'd looked back when they traveled together. The questions are striking an odd note too.]

You alright? Not sure where the Doctor is at the moment, but we can find him pretty easily. What's going on?

[badwolf]

[ She'll take your concerned and confused, Jack, and raise you a very, very shocked look of her own. One that beams into a wide, open mouthed smile. Nevermind what he's saying, look who's saying it. ]

Jack, is that-- Sorry- yeah, I'm fine. But you, you. You're here!

[beforethewar]

[Let's join the chorus, shall we?]

...Rose?

[Don't say how much younger she looks, Eight. You have more decorum than most of your other selves.]

Yes, we're here. Several of us. Don't you remember?

[badwolf]

[ Man, this would be just like This Is Your Life if she actually knew who the majority of these people were. As it is, she's just starting to look a bit exasperated. ]

How'd you mean several of us? And sorry- really, I am, but. Who are you? How come's it seems like everyone knows my name here?

[theshabbiestofmen]

Er-- Rose? You all right? Only you've definitely been here long enough to know the answers to those questions.

[badwolf]

Sorry? I'm fine, really. Why does everyone keep asking me that? I've never been here before in my life. I mean- yet. I might've been later. But it hasn't happened for me yet.

[comeonthensexy]

[ Oh, lord, it's happened to her too now. So that's where she was.

He's so tired. Why can't they just be given a break?

He looks like it too. Looks like crap, honestly. But he can't do audio, not when it's Rose, and not when she doesn't remember.

Although, he supposes, in a way that's a blessing. ]

Of course it can seriously be Asgard. Haven't I taught you about most legends and myth having a grain of truth to them?

[Video]

[badwolf]

[ EXCUSE YOU WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE BEING ALL BOSSY AND RUDE AND wait a second. ]

Look mate, professor or no, I'm pretty sure you've never taught me anything.

[video]

[gallifreyfalls]

[He doesn't know Rose well enough to even begin figuring this one out. Instead he's just going to go with the flow.]

I completely agree.

[video]

[badwolf]

[ Weird old man talking to her. Not that it's uncommon. She's gotten to know plenty of old men recently. ]

Thank you. At least someone here gets it.

[fantastix]

[Quick flick through the messages to confirm what he suspects. The Doctor, still wearing that ridiculous banana jumper, flickers on.]

I'm here.

Dunno if this was the face you were expecting, though.

[badwolf]

[ ... Okay the jumper is a bit weird, and actually has her pausing, mouth open and on the verge of spewing some sort of word. ... Just give her a second. ]

... Is this a trick? [ And how heartbroken she suddenly sounds. ]

[video]

[investigatetime]

[Sarah Jane heard that last, very soft comment.]

Did you say 'Doctor'? Do you know him too?

[video]

[badwolf]

[ Hey that's a familiar--! Wait. Not being rude or anything, but this was a much younger face than who she'd expected to match the voice. And consequently leaves her snapping her mouth shut before something stupid flies out. ]

Yeah. Yeah, I did- Do, sorry. Have you seen him?

voice

[zen_en_vert]

There's good news and bad news. The bad is that this is, technically, Asgard. The good is that there is no shortage of doctors.

voice

[badwolf]

I've heard... Unless you mean. Doctors in general. 'Cause I'm kind of looking for a specific one.

[audio]

[dicey]

Are you from another Asgard, too?

[audio]

[badwolf]

What? No- No, I'm from Earth. But this just doesn't really... seem like it should. Like isn't it supposed to be all glittering gold with a big rainbow bridge or something?

[delancret]

[Danielle has heard about curses, but this doesn't strike her as the same thing. It seems too weird and too similar to what happens to new arrivals to be that. So she just looks sort of sad and tries to push through it, but pounces on this chance to talk to her friend for only the second time since she came back from the dead.]

Have you found anything you were looking for?

video;

[badwolf]

[ Yeah, Rose has been a bit ... secluded, lately. Not that she'd blame anyone, let alone Danielle. It's just the unfortunate addition that this time, she has no idea who the poor girl is. Not anymore. ]

Sort of... Found loads of who I was hoping for, just ... not the right version.
