the Doctor | 008 | Day 118 | Video

[nevermindtherunning]

[Hello Kore, there's a Doctor on screen for you! He's grinning from ear to ear, kicked back in a chair, feet raised up, clearly in the diner.]

I heard there's some new arrivals! Hello, there. I do love new guests to this humble island that we're ever so blessed to inhabit.

Oh-- Is that a religious enough reference?

[The chair snaps down and he's sitting up in his chair, leaning forward with his hands clasped before him.]

What's all the fuss about this 'king of hell' bloke I've heard about? I do love a good story! I met the devil once, have I mentioned that? Stuck on an asteroid? Strange one, that one.

C'mon now! Story time!

Donna Noble, you've traveled with me for exactly how long and you still don't trust my word for things?

[The Doctor lies, but doesn't lie that badly.]

Rule number one: The Doctor lies. [ If she were any less mature she'd be sticking her tongue out right no-- wait, no, she's sticking her tongue out at him. ]

You gotta admit, some of your stories are pretty wacky.

Oi! And you were there for half of them!

Well, ok, maybe statistically not half of them, but they were significant and I think you can agree.

Waving at fat, blowing up Pompeii, potato people, pepper-pot monsters, giant alien spiders - anyone who didn't know you would think you're flippin' bonkers.

... Actually, I do know you and I still think you're bonkers.

The one and only!

[He does take a small bow in gesture.]

You prawn.

[ Sorry Doctor, she's just going to laugh at you slightly. ]

There's a smile! See? Not always the serious one around here, eh? You did ask to come back with me. I don't just offer that to anyone.

I know, I know. I'm just that brilliant!
