01: Emissary of the Daleks

[Action]

[A strange and macabre figure moves though the streets of Nova City, taking in the scenery of his new home. Seated in some kind of futuristic chair that glides along the ground without wheels of an kind, is the gaunt figure of what appears to be a man dressed all in black, with only one arm ending in a silver metallic hand. And the face!

The blacked lips, The sagging brown skin filled with deep scarlines, The dark sunken pools where eyes had once been replaced by the glowing blue light of the electronic eye in the middle of the forehead. It was to those who had the misfortune of encountering him, the impression of a mummified corpse of one who was horribly burned a thousand years ago, who should be dead yet was still kept alive by the technology wired to him.

The voice that comes from the man as he talks to himself is soft, intelligent and contemplative yet is filled with a harsh electronically distorted staccato that unnerves. ]

So this is a parallel universe... Absolutely fascinating. The technology levels here are most encouraging. Superior even to the conditions I had on Skaro. Yes, much is possible in a place like this... Much. But I will have to take up old methods in order to gain such possibilities. The mantle of The Great Healer again may need to be take up again.... Still no great undertaking has ever been accomplished with only minimum effort. Wait for me, my children...

[Have that horrid face gazing out from your screens in vivid detail, even as the voice that comes from it remains level and conversational.]

People of this most unusual world of Genessia, do not be alarmed by my appearance. My name is Davros, head of the Kaled Scientific Elite on the planet Skaro and it is my greatest desire to be of service to all of you if you will allow me that honor. I have solved wars and famines on a galactic scale in the past. Tell me of the pressing issues that you face in this reality not our own and I will overcome them in a matter of weeks. Give me a laboratory to conduct my research in and I shall create for you technological marvels of which would be the envy of most stellar civilizations.  Yes, I can raise you all to the heights of greatness itself. All I ask is that you extend a hand of friendship to one who has lost much, including half of his body and his people...

[The word 'galactic' caught this quantum traveler's attention. He's skeptical, entirely, but willing to bite.]

That's a big package you're selling. What were your magical solutions to those galactic problems, if you don't mind me asking?

Creating a peace keeping force that overwhelmed any disruptive opposition through superior force of arms and creation of foodstuffs from materials that few would even realize using despite the large qualities of it respectively. It that a sufficient enough answer? I afraid I cannot not go into further detail. A scientist must keep his secrets you understand.

Hmmm. A vague answer. Sounds like what those who go to war, or who feed their prisoners rot, would say.

... Well. Don't mind my skepticism. My name is Uai. It's a pleasure to meet you anyway, Mr Davros. Sorry to hear that you seem to be coming from a tragic period in your planet's history, to have lost so much. [Not-very-discreetly trying to see if he can bait more information about the use of 'galactic.]

HI! Let's be friends!

[She TOTALLY remembers you Davros. Well, how could she forget?]

You can't have a lab though. And no experimenting on people either. [alskdjalskdjas Well, the Doctor experiments on people -- no no no, it's not the same, right?]

Also you can't claim to solve wars and famines when your idea of that is unmaking reality.

In my experience, such claims are often false or from a dictator who offers good things but brings about no good as it is an impossible feat to manage all that you offer based on the nature of most species. The point is that if it sounds too good to be true, it likely is.

[In other words, he's heard things like that before and has a definite distrust for them, but then again, what do you expect from someone who grew up in politics and had to deal with corruption regularly.]

[ Have a woman who couldn't give a rats ass who you are.]

That's really fucked up. I'm just fine, thanks.

[Look what the multiverse dragged in. Lovely. Which lovely here is sarcastic; because it's not lovely at all. In fact; this is quite awful but there's three of him here at least to 'babysit' and it may not be Davy - The Doctor might have to babysit but also Jack and based on comments - maybe Rose too. Which Ten inwardly face palms that Rose implied that she's seen someone. First rule; sweetie. Never imply that you know someone especially in a place like this when any of them can be from anywhen. For all The Doctor knows; Davros may only know The Doctor's 4th face and Sarah - and that's it. Maybe not even that or maybe up to his 7th. Or maybe - Davros . You do know these brown eyes that look at you.

That said - for the moment. Ten is going to play dumb to see if he can sniff when you are]

I'm so glad a great and powerful leader have finally arrived at this place. We were in need of one of those.

[Gently]

Rose... Thar's three of me here. Please - don't start a witch hunt. Alright?

[TUGS HIS CHEEK.] You don't even know if he knows me yet. And I didn't say you are here! Or anything about you! [TUG TUG TUG.] If you're gonna assume you know what I'm thinkin', could you maybe do it without assumin' I'm an idiot?

[Look at all these unfriendly and suspicious replies! Genessia is full of shallow haughty punks. Mother Brain is beyond hideous too, so of course she's not put off by the horrifying visage. If anything, ugly = evil in Videoland, but whether he's dark hearted or not, she can use his abilities to further her goals. And if he is of a similar nature, so much the better!]

I'm intrigued by your offer. You want a lab? I'll take you up on those technological marvels.

[Her big red lips stretch into a wide smile, wrinkled brow furrowing as her yellow eyes narrow.]

Mother Brain welcomes you to Genessia with open tentacles!

No. I don't but you did imply you know him.

I know he's going to lie. Even if he does know us. And it's not about saying that I'm here or how many of me are here.

It's public accusations - even if they are true; such as the reality bomb; insisting he's done awful things could cause panic.

[EYE ROLL.] Okay first off, just because I know him or of him doesn't mean much when he's bragging about entire galaxies he and the daleks conquered. Secondly, he can't make a reality bomb here, how the bloody hell would he summon twenty seven appropriately sized planets? No one's got a lab for that. And thirdly, don't you think maybe you SHOULD warn the public a bit about yanno, crazy old grandfather of the daleks likely to try to racially purge all species from existence?

I'm not sayin', wave your arms, depose Harriet Jones, and take over like a bloody idiot. But this is me you're talkin' to.

Don't be so scared that you confuse me for you. [Doesn't even slow her roll long enough to take a breath yet.]

I spent three years as a ghost. I know how to talk to people to make them loosen up. [GENTLY TIGHTENS HIS TIE :V] And unlike someone I'm not going to act like a paranoid lunatic.

[BAD WOLF DEEP FULL LUNGED HUFF!!!!]

[But she doesn't unleash anymore just quietly lets her eyes flash and lets it out slowly with a small snort.] I think... before you say anything more to me you might live to regret, you should talk to your older selves about it. And see what they tell you about me. If all 3 o' you agree I need to sit down and shut up? Yanno whot? I actually will. One time offer, I never promise I'll make again unless you're phenomenonly lucky.

But it seems a bit like you're overreacting. Yeah? [Grinds teeth. And through gritted teeth:] Maybe?? [Holding her fingers up a smidge apart.]

Don't swear

[A pause]

The authorities will be told but outside of that - our group can keep our eyes on him. You know I don't like being trapped in a corner. What do you think may happen if Davros is trapped into a corner?

If you need to go on about things to him; at least lock the post, alright?

[Look in her eyes, 10. How happy does she look right now?]

While you're at it, would you like to tell me how to brush my teeth, hold my silverware, and walk on two legs?

[TACKLES AND PINS HIM ALL GROWLS!] I know what I'm doing! Remind me again, Doctor: Which of us keeps getting killed? Who gets along with people and who does the science? Who was the big mouth taunting the devil and saying he wasn't real to his face? When Davros had us in his dungeon, which of us was the arrogant prick ticking him off, and which of us didn't even panic even when the TARDIS and my Mum were seemingly destroyed? [GROWL GROWL GROWL. Hackles on end!]

Okay. I'm sorry. You mentioned the reality bomb and I panicked a little.

[Still baring teeth all growly wolf, but it's clear she's listening since a lot of the fight goes out of her, though she does gently pull his cheeks.]

I wanted to see when he's from! I'm pushing his buttons. You taught me that!

[Lets go with a laugh and leans her forehead to his, smiling fondly.] Idiot.

[Ten scratches behind her ear]

Yes - but in a place that can grab any of us from anywhen - it's more clever to pretend to not know them and see who slips first.

[Sexy and playful eye wink and laughs with her]

Your idiot.

Yeeeeaaahhh... And if anybody here actually buys that, I've got some ocean-front property in Agrabah to sell them.

But what if I--?

Guh...

[He's cheating! She can't think when he does that! No fair!!!]

[She will just snuggle up and cuddle on his chest.]

[Hmmmm happiness is a warm timelord.]

[Even if he's not really warm because wacky alien and his body tends to run cooler which is actually even better because Rose would rather stay cooler and go skiing instead, ta.]

I don't want to be clever. [Pouts! Snuggles! Head on his chest, and nudges the back of her head into his hand, do it again.] You're the clever one. I'm the potato-y one. [Toy Story quote in reverse. :|]

[Newt is walking around with his briefcase and his Bowtruckle in his front shirt pocket; he's for sure dressed - oddly and Newt is drawn to this strange being like a moth to a flame and is approaching Davros without fear but more curious and completely fascinated]

Hallo.

[There's also sympathetically in his voice]

I don't suppose you'd mind if you could tell me how you ended up like this.

[The face Dumbledore presents is friendly and curious if somewhat cautious, though inwardly all of his alarm bells have gone off and are clanging throughout his thoughts.]

What a generous offer. Tell me, what solutions have you used to solve the wars and famines of the past? They must have been magnificently planned to do so much.

Oh, hello, there. Galactic scale, is it, impressive, very impressive, got to wonder how you pulled that off. Massive network of humanitarian aid, I suppose? Well, mostly humans who'd call it that, 'course, fairly surrounded by them here, though, so might as well put it in terms they'd understand.

[It's with a cool, dry smile that the Doctor comes on camera, eyes narrowed with a penetrating gaze. He figures odds are good that Davros knows who he is thanks to the Daleks--or failing that, that he'd work it out quickly anyway--but it's worth playing the game, anyway. If nothing else, it'll be worth seeing Davros surprised.]

Not always that interested in the heights of greatness, mind you, not always their top priority, depends on what it'd cost them. 'course, you do know something about paying a high price, I s'pose, don't you, loss of your people and all. Shame about that, love to hear how it happened, got a bit of an int'rest in history, you could say.

[Here, Davros. Have a little boy.]

Can you build me a floating house, mister? Then I won't have to pay rent because it's not on any land.

EUCH!

[Kii did not hold back, rude, but they clear their throat]

There we go. Got that out. You said that you solved famines, and solved wars? Can you tell all of us-actually---

no. Just me.

How the flying hell can I get out of here? Solve that and maybe we can be...acquaintances.

[There is a long silence on the other end as the disfigured ancient face frowns and then there is an unhappy sigh.]

In war, we all must do things we aren't entirely proud of... Must you press on the details from an old man, weary in mind and body, Mr. Uai?
