[ Oh, the Doctor didn't waste any time once he was settled in.He'd have to explore every inch of this place, and if he didn't achieve all of that today, well, he'd skip some classes. (Except not.) He still couldn't believe that he had to take some classes--did they still lecture? It'd been ages since he'd been in a classroom. In a real, proper classroom, as a student. What was it, ohh... 800 years? About. Yes, about. The last time he had been in a classroom as a teacher, that'd been... with Rose, as his tenth incarnation. Amazing, that was, how time flies. The Doctor walked around the Garden, looking at the faces of students as they passed by.

Yes, yes, he already looked like a professor. He was well aware.

Oh--and he'd have to resort to calling himself John Smith again. Oh, that was annoying. John Smith, John Smith, John Smith--sometimes, he wondered, if he should pick another ambiguous name. Dr. John Smith, maybe he could trade it in. ]

Nooo, what if I forget? That wouldn't do.

[ he muttered to himself, before quickening his steps, hands shoved into his tweed jacket. ]

Well, best to learn the territory before I make any rash decisions--wait. [ was choosing to be a teacher a rash decision? ... probably. ] Probably... too late. Maybe.

[ A blankness reflects in her eyes at the principles of the basic magic. Hope, faith, love - she doesn't want to ask what those things are, so she latches onto the question. ]

Yes. I think some people here miss their homes too - and then there are some who don't seem to. Do you? Things that are familiar, friends, family?

[ a pause. ]

Oh, no need to miss home. It's an adventure, being here!

[ Terra smiles a bit at that. ]

I will agree with that, it is an adventure. I often wish I could remember what my home was like, but in hindsight, maybe it's best I don't remember. There would be more to miss then.

[tardytardis.livejournal.com]

Yes. Maybe.

[ his voice gets a bit hollow before he makes himself perk up again. ]

Well. Adventure's waiting, isn't it? You should be off.

[ A blink, as if just realizing, and then she nods, grinning again. ]

Yes, you're right. It was nice meeting you!

Nice meeting you too, Tina.
