[Have a cheerful looking girl smiling widely at the camera, as if she has no worries in the whole world.]
Yaa-hoo, everyone!!
So, like, my name's Angelique Sheeran and I'm, like, new here in Genessia. Actually, I, like, arrived here a week ago or so, but, like, I forgot to introduce myself openly. I would, like, apologize but I don't, like, think it really matters, does it?
Anyway!! I mostly just, like, wanted to make this as a warning or an advertisment? However you rather, like, consider it, to say that today I'm going to, like, be around all the cities to get to know them and, like, everyone in them. I would, like, love to get to know some of you, or, like, all of you but, like, I know that's not possible. So if you want to, like, talk or something I'll be available on here or, like, you can come see me in person and get hug!
[She shifts to show a sign and that she's holding that reads "FREE HUGS".]
Because, like, there's nothing wrong with hugs and, like, they are a great thing to share! You don't, like, need to hug back if you don't like, that's why they are, like, free hugs! And they are, like, super healthy!
[Specially for the girl that will try to sneak and absorb tiny little bits of energy from each hug, not even enough to make people feel tired, though they may feel slightly breathless.]

[She watches the slow nod a little worried about Rose judging them. But that goes out the window when she mentions her own boyfriend's age.]
Wow, like, no wonder you really were, like, a year fighting and more. Makes me feel, like, a bit silly for thinking that, like, his age may make it hard for him to accept me.
Like, totally new! I'm not, like, inexperienced, you know? In, like, many ways. I mean, like, you already know how I feed, and, like, when I realized what was what I needed... Well... It wasn't, like, hugs what I went for, if you get me. And then I, like, met my partner and we made a deal where he would, like, feed me and I would help him with work. But, like, I never really thought of him as my "boyfriend", you know?
Action / Everglade
[SPREAD HANDS AND SHRUG.] Time travel is complicated. But the Doctor is just extra weird, really.
[Chews her bottom lip.] Well... not just... yanno age. But like ... yeah. He was worried about me dying before him, like I said. And the whole, him not being human. And the lies. Mostly it was the covering up for the lies for me. But also sometimes he acts asexual. [EYES ROLL UP TO THE SKY.] Like. A lot of the time. So I was extra ticked that he has a wife, had others in the past, and couldn't get over himself with me, because I'm too special... apparently. Or something like that. But no it was basically that. So I felt very... strung up. I don't think I'm strong enough to have the kind of friendship and close working relationship we have, where he's the lead scientist for my company yeah? And NOT -- like I told him I was in love with him before we wound up here. So to not really act on that. Was extra hard for me. And I was angry about other things, not all his fault. It just got... It was a mess, yeah?
[Head tilt.] I mean... Sort of????? In an... intellectual way I guess. [Laughs, and squeezes Angelique's hand!] I never really thought Jimmy Stone was taking advantage of my age or naivete when I was 16, but I guess to everyone else, that was exactly how it was. But even my Mum knew... there's no way to really tell me what not to do or not. And the Doctor... same thing. He knew better than to tell me where to go. To go be with my parents again, because he'd done that, a ton o' times already and it never worked.
I guess if your boyfriend knows you, he probably knows, or trusts you're strong and independent like that too? [Hums.] You might wanna tell him how you feed though. You said it was medical too? He should get my boyfriend to look at him! That's how we got started feeding non-humans in the first place, yeah? I was turned into a gargoyle for a couple of weeks, and other were vampires, and he was a werewolf. [Face scrunch.] I even got him a collar that says Bad Dog on it, I didn't actually think he'd wear it, but he never takes it off. [Giggles.] But he tried to feed all the vampires because so many were letting themselves starve and stuff. ~Ethical~ reasons.
[Bites a fingernail.] Even if you think like... he might get scared...
The Doctor thought I was in culture shock when he first showed me his ship and I figured out he was an alien and all. But I wasn't. I was upset because he just took the head off my boyfriend at the time, and even though it was plastic, like store dummies he saved me from the night before, I was really scared for Mickey. Not for myself.
The Doctor's -- I dunno, it's one of those things... Jack says it's just that he's not human, for sure. So he's bad with reading people, but I know other aliens who aren't half as bad as the Doctor. Could still be his species though, like I said, he's practically the last of his kind. So like... hiding stuff from me really... [S H R U G.] Even when he thought it was for my own good, that really made me mad. I just want to be the one choosing. Like when he asked me along twice. Because the first time I was thinking about Mickey, and I'd run off on Mickey before with Jimmy and that was terrible, and then there was my Mum, and I didn't want to put her through all of that again... [Huff puff.] But in the end, asking me twice gave me the chance I needed to do what I really wanted. He said he'd never done that before. Or since.
Anyway... I think... [NODS!! She closes her eyes but she's definitely certain of this.] You should try to tell him how you feed. And let him try to help you too. Don't yanno let him kill himself, because gods men are so stupid I swear... But let him try to help. Or at least... let him to try to be supportive and understanding. I freaked out with the Doctor when I realized I'd just wandered off with a strange older man I knew nothing about, just being way too naive and trusting again. And he thought I was just in culture shock again and bein' nosy besides... but after it was all said and done... he told me some important things, things he doesn't normally want to talk about or tell anyone else, but he gave me enough information I could decide where I want to be. Which is with him. And even though he gave me reasons to leave, I wanted to stay. BECAUSE he told me, yeah? Because he trusted me, and needed me. And Mickey always acted like he needed me, but I think Mickey could handle himself if he let himself. But around me, he'd let me take care of things. Yeah?
Anyway, point is. That was like... 5 or 6 years ago, and I've fought really hard to get back to him since then.
I mean granted, it wasn't like he was like "Hey Rose I need you to hug me daily or I'll die." But he needed me to hold his hand, or he'd die. He needed someone with him so he had to save them too or he wouldn't bother saving himself. Understand? Plus I mean... it sounds like he already... has sex with you??? So?? Whatever medical issue it's either under control, OR you should tell him the danger. Because otherwise, I REALLY mean it. Men are universally stupid. That goes for Trunks and Uai too. I love them all, but seriously. So even if he's a good detective and figures it out, he might do something crazy and scare you way worse than if you just talk it with him sober-like. I don't know his condition though, so yeah, also consider sending him to the Doctor. My Doctor, my boyfriend, I mean. He's got the double benefit of not being human, and still a doctor, so he can do some medical stuff for a wide variety of species. Less on humans, because of the time travel and not being one himself, but also we have another friend who's getting her Doctor's license here, so if it's really specialized and he can't help, she probably can.
Action / Everglade
Well... We've known each other for, like, a week so... I suppose he doesn't, like, know much that much, nor I know him. Definitively, like, nowhere near as you and your Doctor.
[And thinking about it again it's probably silly to be so worried about something that has been there for such a sort time. But this week with him has been unique and can't be compared to anything in the last two years. And it wasn't because of the whole "being taken to another world" thing.]
Your boyfriend was, like, a store dummy?
[She sounds more curious than confused... Because she is. Rose really seems to have experienced really great adventures even if also scary ones.]
[At least telling him how she feeds. That could be an idea, but she still feels that when telling him she should tell him everything. It's still something to consider, though.]
I won't, like, let him kill himself, specially, like, not for me. I would rather starve.
[Though she would try not to, because she has seen others starving and they all went berserk, attacking anyone from whom they could feed. And she doesn't want to attack Carver while being out of her mind.]
[She giggles when Rose says that her Doctor didn't need her to hug him daily, and blushes when Rose points out about the sex.]
Ah, yeah, like... He definitively doesn't, like, act asexual at all. I've just been, like, super careful to not lose my self-control.
I'll, like, try to get him to do that too. But, like, he really doesn't seem comfortable with, like, treating it here. So I don't, like, want to push it either. At least, like, not for now because he's also, like, stubborn and I really think I would, like, have a better chance at convincing him if there was a problem. But, like, so far he has been fine so...
Action / Everglade
I'll never see him again though. Unless he comes here. [Shrugs.] The Doctor nudged me back to my parents universe, and Mickey skipped off to go back to the Doctor's with Jack.
He was my childhood best friend, yeah? We grew up together on the Estates. When I was stuck in Pete's Universe, he showed me some more about computers. Only way I know anything about them really.
[Slow nod again about Carver's condition.] Like I said, most blokes are idiots. Especially when it comes to taking care o' themselves. [Quiet hum.] Well, if nothing else, maybe he can talk to my Doctor about the non-human sex thing? If he wants to help anyway, yeah? [Both hands up.] Just an option though, yeah? It can be a lot to adjust to this place for normal people.
Action / Everglade
I think I would also be like, a bit of a jerk in that case, but like I'm glad that he, like, got over it. It sounds like almost everyone that you knew and that also, like, met The Doctor ended doing super great things.
My childhood best friends are like... Normal. Well, Odette is, who is the one that's still like alive. Kristen was like pretty normal too, only competitive, you know? She was like really into swimming and wanted to like be a pro and instead ended a dead frog.
[And maybe she should sound more upset but after a year and a half, all she has is mostly annoyance at the event.]
It's like good to have options, thank you. I will like try to convince him to give it all a chance. I mean, like, even without taking me into account, Genessia as a whole can pretty much be like lethal for him. And that's like not taking into account the actual dangers of this place.
Action / Everglade
[Blank stare. How do you get turned into a frog? Should she ask???]
[And a small frown.] I guess it depends on why he's nervous. The Doctor is ironically really bad about Doctors too. But mostly because he's alien, so certain Doctors finding out about him puts him into danger instead. But like, if your bloke is just being stubborn, really see what you can do to put him at ease, yeah? I have to do that with the Doctor too. Or Micks. Might just be a guy thing.
Action / Everglade
Well, he like doesn't seem to like doctors much from what I got. Even in his world it seems like he only went through with trying to have it fixed like for his daughter's sake. So without her here he's like "naaaaah".
But like you're totally right on that. I'll like do my best so he's at ease and fine.
Action / Everglade
[And Rose laughs and shakes her head. Yeah that sounded like... every guy she could think of.] Okay well, if he doesn't want to do surgery, there's still other treatments, and if he's not comfortable being seen by the Doctor, because he's not human, we can ask Martha to look at him. Otherwise Fayren has magic healers, but I get the feeling he might be a bit like my Doctor about that. No magic in his universe, or any of the others I've been to before here.
Action / Everglade
[Humans and their need to only believe what they know and see as absolute truths.]
But he's actually like not too opposed to magic? Like, I think his issue is more that since he has never seen it he first like, has to accept it as real. He said that he could like go to healers in Fayren once he got his head around that if needed.
Action / Everglade
Oh, you mean your boyfriend, not mine. [LAUGHS.] Pssh. Yeah. Okay. I can get that! Yeah! I was the same way about aliens. So was Micks, although he got a little harder into the conspiracy theory side of it, when the Doctor brought me back a year late instead of the 12 hours later like we'd planned.
Action / Everglade
Actually like I could see that being my world too. I mean like a friend told me that magic is basically just super advanced science because it also has like its own rules and all. So, like tcha, I could totally see my world as a non-magic one. But like calling us "aliens" feels like weird, you know? Because like we're all from Azure, just like not the same dimension as humans because they like forced other species to hide to avoid a big world war.
[Headtilt.]
How could he like bring you back a whole year late when he's like a time traveler? Was there like something in time that like blocked traveling to the right moment or something?
Action / Everglade
Have the dimensions overlapping sounds pretty dangerous! Even if it was to protect from wars...
[Rubs the back of her neck.] Torchwood got founded 'cause an alien crash-landed on Earth and a creepy cult used it like a disease, or curse, passing it down and spreading it so they could try to take over the crown of Britain. In the Doctor's universe, we saved the Queen. In my Dad's universe, she was killed, and so was the werewolf, either at the same time, or in punishment for messing up. In the Doctor's Universe the Queen made Torchwood to fight against all aliens, even the Doctor.
[FACE SCRUNCH TROLL FACE!] I like having him work for it now as a sort of Fuck you to her, yeah? [:V]
And Jack met her and got stuck workin' fer it too. But in Pete's Universe, my Dad's, Torchwood was made to help aliens too, because humans are kind of messed up, so we did some relocation and refugee stuff.
Yeahhhh basically. His ship is sentient. So I think she brought us back late because she wanted us to be around to fix stuff, and we wouldn't have if it weren't for my Mum slapping him and calling the police. Usually we set her on random, which is how we wound up in Hell -- Um, Krop Tor. Impossible planet, being explored by my Torchwood, right on the edge of a black hole. Satan was there. [Shrugs. \:|/] But sometimes we'd try to go to rock concerts and get to the wrong century. That's what happened with Queen Victoria. I was dressed for 1970s too, not 1870s. The Queen called me naked. [>:3] She still gave me a knighthood! Just before exiling me and the Doctor. [:V]
Action / Everglade
So far it's always just like lemenaes of different grades and like a few numenaes crossing all to like the human world. I would like totally love to be able to cross to their dimensions or like whatever they really are, you know, to like see how it is there.
[Angelique frowns and makes a face at the mention of a creepy cult. It's always the cults in her experience.]
That's like a good "fuck you" to her, yeah. Specially because like her creating that to even like fight The Doctor is like a literally bitch move. Like totally ungrateful.
[And she snorts and laughs at the last part. Sorry, Rose that was... Definitively funny.]
Action / Everglade
[Hums...] You... probably wouldn't like it there... [HAUNTED LOOK. DON'T ASK.] There's a reason certain dimensions have a lot of people wanting to invade, and not vice versa.
[But grins about Queen Victoria and winks.] I kind of want her to show up just so I can show her exactly what I've done with it. Ohhhh she'd hate it here though. Her entire reign was known for being a stuffy prudish era. [Tongue loll grin!]
Action / Everglade
[She owes it to him, for him to be the first one to whom she tells all that. One of the reasons why she didn't feel too bad about admitting to not being human is because he actually caught on that pretty quickly.]
She and me would probably like totally not get along then. I can be like bad enough to make even non-prudish people like feel embarrassed and uncomfortable.
Action / Everglade
[Tongue loll grin!] Really? Ahhh you're making it really hard not to offer you a job, you know? Are you SURE you want to be a policewoman? We've got field agents!
[But she grins all the same.] Don't worry, I'm pretty bad too, I always forget how to keep to the mores of the past, and then in like... 5050, the year or time period Jack's from, humans flirt and seduce like every single species in the universe, like it's a mission. Really wish I could have seen how his meeting with her went down. Irresistible charmer Jack, but she is pretty strict!
Action / Everglade
I like really love to work as a police, a detective even. It's like the only thing back home that ever made me feel like complete, you know? Investigating a scene, questioning witnesses and suspects, it's like... Like a big puzzle but with like someone or various people not wanting for you to like solve it so they hide pieces. So it's like a huge game or like a huge hunt. Even when the case it's like small, I really like totally love it.
[Headtilt.]
But like I don't know like how much work there would be here or even if like there will be open positions. So like maybe I could like help a little somehow? Though if like they don't let me work because of like my age or whatever I'll like give you a call to see if it's like still an option if that's like okay with you.
[She giggles.]
Your friend Jack does like sound like a charmer and like a fun dude. I can't like imagine the humans in my world ever reaching like that stage of flirting and all. Not with people like Gaff around, he's like drier than a desert.
Re: Action / Everglade
Mm! You're welcome anytime, for sure, but I hope they let you in all the same! Torchwood does do some mysteries, but only if we think the proper authorities can't handle it, yeah? I think they'll let you in though. My friend Satou works there and she's younger than you. They're pretty good at understanding different worlds means different circumstances.
[Laughs.] Jack's the best, but you'd be surprised what a difference 3000 years can make. Heck even 100 was a big deal for my world! What year was it for you?
Action / Everglade
[It's a huge reason why she's really liking Carver, he likes work as much as she does. Gaff was considered a workaholic but compared to her he was actually far more relaxed and cared less about work.]
That's like great to know! And a huge relief, I was like accepted at my world, but like they couldn't really hire me because I hadn't finished high school due of some circumstances. But I was of age so they like had me as kind of like a consulting agent. So if you like ever need help with those mysteries feel free to like give me a call! I actually like have some experience working where proper authorities don't.
[She just won't go into details there, but she knows well that sometimes following the "rules" doesn't match what's truly best, for good or for bad.]
For me? It was 2059 A.R. but like after talking with my boyfriend I'm like literally sure that we use very different calendars. I mean, like, even the months are different from what I've like seen on the communication device. Also, technology is more like how Nova City is than Genessia which seemed closer to what Carver is used to and he's from 2014.
Action / Everglade
[Waves a hand.] Don't worry about it. It's just not that great, not really. I really wanted him to take chances and I dunno. It seems silly now... but it was important to me. Really. And work for him and me is just that nuisance thing that can be used to get to our real objectives, yeah? Feeling complete while working? Definitely envy that. The closest was on a mission, and even then... I was trying to get back to him.
[To the last part:]
Makes sense, it's rarer for planets to actually have the same cycle around their suns as Earth does around Sol. I'm pretty sure it's artificial here, but don't get me started.
[Nod nods.] You never know, that's not too far off. Some things about my Dad's universe are more advanced than the Doctor's, and then vice versa. Even five years is a huge difference in tech with them. Both.
And... no worries about school. [Finger over her lips for a SECRET.] I dropped out early before my A-Levels in Britain to support my ex-boyfriend's dream of being a musician. It wasn't like I loved him, nothing like the Doctor. Just wanted to get out and on the road and believed we could do it together. I guess sometimes how I am with the Doctor reminds me of that. Not that I lose sight of the present, just... yeah. Work is always just so I can get out on the road again, yeah? [Laughs and shakes her head.] But... being trapped here with him. I don't mind. Although if he ever hears it, it'll go straight to his head and I'll never hear the end of it.
Action / Everglade
[She shrugs softly.]
I mean like, it's not like I really get most of things regarding humans and emotions. I get like the concepts and all that but when it comes to like applying it all... Everything seems like super complicated at times.
[She laughs at the last part.]
Well, I'm not like too worried about school either. I mean, all the people of my age had were in almost the same position because they had to like miss a year, it's just that I like needed even another year for it. But also like since I started to work school worries me like even less. I just want to like do enough of it to be able to like start working full time and forget like everything else. So I guess it's like with work and the read for you.
Action / Everglade
[Grins and nods.] Luckily it shouldn't count much here. Experience counts for way more with 'em.
Though there's still Attleton Uni, or Nova Uni, if you want to get more expertise. There's a fund to help students pay for living expenses while they study here too.
Action / Everglade
[Headtilt.]
I don't know, like Carver also commented about school but... Right now I just like want to work and be with him. Though I suppose I could like do a class or two maybe if they catch my attention. I mean, in my world you could like go to some classes even if you don't like do a whole career set, can that be like done here?
Action / Everglade
Yup! That's what I do. My best friend and his wife are professors there. I only take his, or if they're like really interesting. Debating if I should do some accounting ones. I'm not really good with spreadsheets or writing things down. Habit of learning all this from traveling with the Doctor who just holds it all in his head, yeah?
Action / Everglade
Is that so? I like find working with spreadsheets and having like everything written down or in pictures the easiest way to work. I mean, it not only like makes it super easier to go over everything and connect clues and testimonies and leads, but it's also like super necessary for once you get the culprit. Lawyers like love evidence and testimonies and like to have everything recorded and written so like no one can just back off or degenerate into "he said, she said", you know?
So I kind of got tons of experience with that. I could like give you a few tips or tricks that I used to get into putting everything down like that if you want.
