[a frustrated sigh is the first thing to broadcast over the Sphere, followed by the appearance of a tall, skinny woman with long, dark hair who appears to be wearing a suit exactly like the Doctor's brown pinstripe suit. unfortunately, the Sphere's only showing her from behind and there really isn't much to see as she doesn't have much of a figure. she doesn't seem to notice that her trousers are a little tight around her hips--the only thing, really, that is snug--but otherwise, they're cut to length. the only things that are ill-fitting are the suit-coat, which is too baggy around her shoulders, and the button-up shirt and other ones layered underneath.]

[grumbling under her breath, she runs an impatient hand through her hair.] Damn glasses, they used to stay on my face...

[finally, the Sphere swings around to show her fast at work in the security station, her expression severe and focused completely on the task at hand. until she suddenly smacks a hand on the desk and slumps into a chair there. she tears the glasses from her face and tucks them away into an inside pocket of her suit.]

Blimey, what the hell did he do?! I've tried everything and I still can't figure it out. There has to be something I'm missing...

You're female. [Hello Captain Obvious.]

... [Looks down at his new duds. Stares at the almost-skirt.] I do not remember wearing these.

[bit_impossible]

[touches breasts to make sure they're--yep, they're still there.] Why yes. Yes I am. Still.

No? Must be that holo-suite malfunction. I was hoping that's what happened to me, but, well... I can't exactly ignore these and the hair. [brushes it out out of his face.]

[Tries to touch the folds of cloth hanging off him, but all he gets is air.]

Why prefer this?

[bit_impossible]

Because at least then I wouldn't run the risk of splitting my trousers in at the seams. These were tailor-made to fit my real body, not one that needs a little more room in the bum area.

[notwithoutasoul.livejournal.com]

Why not change clothing then?

[bit_impossible]

Because I'd have to go shopping and I'm not terribly fond of shopping, especially for clothing. At least I've got my long coat here to cover up anything that might happen.

[notwithoutasoul.livejournal.com]

... Ah. [Really doesn't get why people are so picky.]

[bit_impossible]

Funny though... I don't remember seeing you for a couple days. Did you fall ill?

[notwithoutasoul.livejournal.com]

[... Oh shit. He should have seen this.] I do not get sick.

[bit_impossible]

No? Then what happened to you? Were you all right?

[notwithoutasoul.livejournal.com]

... I wanted to... stay quiet.

[bit_impossible]

Even with all hell breaking loose?

[notwithoutasoul.livejournal.com]

... Is it wrong to want some silence?

[bit_impossible]

No, nothing wrong at all. But you know... [leans in closer to the Sphere, smiling] It's not very convincing when you leave so much of a pause before you speak.

[notwithoutasoul.livejournal.com]

I always speak that way, though.

[bit_impossible]

[still smiling] A moment ago you didn't.

But! [gives a toss of long hair.] You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. We all have our secrets.

[notwithoutasoul.livejournal.com]

... [Does not get it.]

[bit_impossible]

[laughs] Oh Nataku...

[notwithoutasoul.livejournal.com]

... Hm?

[bit_impossible]

[giggles] Nothing, nothing, just sighing in an amused manner, that's all.

[notwithoutasoul.livejournal.com]

...All right.
