[when the Sphere turns on, it appears as though it's caught him in the middle of a bath, water dripping off his wet hair onto naked shoulders. only, a moment later, the Sphere pulls back a little to reveal a large length of silken brown, blue, and white striped fabric that once was his tie set around something that looks suspiciously like a blue tea cup. in fact, it is, especially if the giant tea spoon peeking out from underneath the tie and the giant tin filled with English Breakfast tea is any indication.

in truth, he's not exactly sure what he thinks about being able to take a bath in his tea cup. he'd rather be drinking his tea, not sitting in the water he intended to use for it. from the displeased expression on his face, he's rather annoyed at the Sphere for catching him in his current predicament. he doesn't bother to mention Ganymede; he's already made his complaints to the Captain.]


Well, I can definitely say I've never done this before. Can check it off my list--though, I'll have to add it to the list then check it off. [mutters] And I've never worn my tie like that before...

[he sighs, slinging his wet arms over the edge of the tea cup, his feet poking up out of the water on the other side.] This new height is very inconvenient. I wanted to modify my Sphere today, but I can't even carry my sonic screwdriver without help. [from off-screen, there's a little squeak, the tone robotic and tinny, followed by a couple others.] Yes, yes, I know you have a job to do, but you're helping me out! That's your job for right now.

Anyway, where was I? [pauses for a moment, running a hand through his hair and ignoring the continued squeaks of protest from off-screen.] Oh yes, being inconvenienced. I rather think that's a theme Ganymede likes to use in these games of his. Orion does a good enough job dabbling in them himself, though he plays those off as us doing him a favour, or us needing to do something so he can help us. Fat lot of good he's been so far. Let him on-board and his father'll turn up dead again--and where will our answers be then? At the end of another black hole?

About what? Letting us see him? Yeah right. He'd rather... [he's trying not to laugh anymore, really, but some snickering might be getting through] ...sell us short. Or you at least!
oliverplus: (What?)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-07 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, no need to be that sour about it! I'm not exactly towering myself. And at least half the people I've talked to are twice my size!
oliverplus: (Considering)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-07 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[blinks, then raises an eyebrow] Yeah, that could've done it. But that still doesn't explain why you're so small! We both tried to talk to him.
oliverplus: (Considering)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-07 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
A couple? I only left one. Well, only one recently, anyway.
oliverplus: (Explaining)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-07 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I left one message then.
oliverplus: (Looking)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-07 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe about 30 centimetres--like I said, right about twice your height. Why?
oliverplus: (Really?)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-07 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
No. Doctor, how long did you talk to him for?
oliverplus: (Considering)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-08 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
That's not long. No wonder people complained.
oliverplus: (Listening)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-08 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Well, if you're right, everybody who's my size or smaller.
oliverplus: (Oliver - Plotting)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-08 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe 15 centimetres?
oliverplus: (Really?)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-08 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
[raises an eyebrow] Just how many messages did you leave!?
oliverplus: (Huh?)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-08 02:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[stares] And you wonder why you're so small!
oliverplus: (Really?)

[personal profile] oliverplus 2009-07-08 04:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Help with what? What'd you start explaining that took you thirteen messages?
