[Now that was worrying. Martha began looking along the ground.]

Are you sure it's gone? It's not just hanging about in a random pocket? You have a lot of stuff in there you know.

I know that!

[He dug through his jacket pockets, and his suit pockets, and even the inner pockets of the jacket and of the suit, but nothing still turned up.] This... is unexpected.

[All of the situation was, if he was honest with himself.] C'mon, let's have a look around?

[Martha nodded and checked her own pockets. Her perception filter fell out, but it was missing the computer chip that made it work.]

Huh... I've never lost that before.

[There was a small crowd of people also around looking just as confused. It didn't take a genius to discover they weren't the only ones to have woken up here. And hang on... perhaps she should figure out where in their respective timelines she and the Doctor were from.]

When was the last time we saw each other Doctor?

((OOC: Haven't figured out Martha's housing yet. Does the Doctor want a housemate?))

[ooc: The Doctor would love a housemate!]

[He looks puzzled a moment, thinking very hard. Nervously he licks his lips afraid of disrupting their timelines.] Davros.

[Honestly, it hadn't been that long ago for him, so if she had been there, that's all that needed to be said. She would know.]

[Martha immediately reached out and took his hand.]

I'm sorry. It's been a few months since then for me. You holding up all right?

Ah, good! Same timeline it seems!

[That was a relief, at least.]

Yup! Doing fine! [Despite having a prophecy being told him to beware of 4 knocks, but some things didn't have to be told and he didn't want to concern her.]

Me too [Not that she really was doing fine. One doesn't typically do fine when one's fiance decides to break of the engagement. But like the Doctor, Martha didn't want to concern him with anything.]

[Martha does take a closer look at her wrist.] Funny, I wasn't wearing a watch before...

Yeah? [He leans in closer to look at hers, then pulls up the sleeves of his jacket only to see the same.]

Oh, now this is getting weird.

[He wasn't prone to random black outs, so this was rather unsettling. Really unsettling.]

[Martha begins pushing buttons and suddenly the screen lights up and a robotic voice starts talking. Martha's brow furrows as A) the voice tells her not to leave and B) it assigns her a house number.]

Whomever brought us here has assigned living quarters. I'm in house number 10.

Oh lovely! I'm there too!

[He pauses and smiles softly.] Like old times... only domestic he says that like it's a bad thing, but really it was just a foreign concept to him.]

You didn't mind so much when we were stuck back in the 60s [she counters.]

And now I know things will end up taken apart and left on the table. Besides, maybe we'll get lucky and have separate rooms.

[ooc: wow, my last tag was a hot mess. Sorry! I think in the middle of that last sentence I thought I was writing in prose!? >_< ]

[He goes quiet and awkwardly rubs at his eyelid at her comment.] Perhaps, though sharing a bed wasn't too horrible. [Besides the fact he can't sleep like a human and it made him antsy.]

Nevertheless, I'll get us out of here! Don't you worry, Martha Jones.

[Martha began to snap at him.] Yes well I'm engag...

[And then she remembered. All the sharpness left her and she finished the statement rather lamely.] engaged now, so sharing of beds is strictly off limits.

[Hoping to smooth over the whole statement but knowing she probably couldn't] Come on, let's go see our new temporary living place.

Engaged!? Martha, that's brilliant!

[Aaaand here's your hug without warning.] Now we definitely need to figure this out!

[He follows her, looking around, mouth half open in excitement of the surroundings, despite still being quite bothered how they ended up here in the first place.]

[Oh well wasn't this a bloody mess!]

You didn't remember? When you came back for the Sontaran's?

[She shouldn't have brought that up though. She'd been wearing a ring. A bloody big one too. One that was very noticeably not on her finger now. Oh well. He was so excited about it, she'd play along. It beat having to explain what had actually happened.]

Did you...? OH THAT'S RIGHT!

[He was prone to forgetfulness, but this was rather embarrassing.] Sorry, erm... [He left that quiet as they moved on in their exploration.]

[At least he was avoiding anything else she didn't want to talk about. Moving right along, Martha began looking at the different buildings.]

So it looks like we should be... this way I think.
