[universaljanitor]

[Greetings, Siren's Port. The face you'll be seeing is one that vanished from the Port a few days ago, but more than that it just... looks different. Older and younger all at once, free of the weight and pain that had been lining it before, the stress and insanity. Instead, in its place, is pure relief. As if the weight of the universe had been lifted off his shoulders.

Oh. And he looks like he might have just fallen through a window.]

Siren's Port? I'm really... this is the Port? Again? Now...? [His voice is strained, shaky, as if he's just about to completely lose control of his emotions] How... how long was I gone? Was it that long? Days? Months?

Is everyone still here? Jack? Washu? Jubilee? All you angel blokes?

... Rose?

...How long were you gone?

[He's quietly curious, actually, easily overlooked.]

[...Fuck even replying on this thing. -Actually no, she will. But she's already choked on her drink and scrambled out the door because not only is he back (she knew he would be), but he looks like he'd gotten into a fist fight with a razor blade and a brick wall.

He's only just uttered her name by the time she stumbles to a stop just at the edges of the diamond, eyes blazing.]

Doctor...

[jackedthename]

Oh, you know me, handsome, I'm never too far off.

[hisoldgirl]

It's been a few days, Doctor.

[she can't keep the sadness out of her expression, though she soldiers through it anyway]

Do you need help?

[thelittlestbub]

I'm here, Doctor. I was worried about you. You doing alright?

[uberboned]

You were gone? [THIS IS GABRIEL'S WAY OF BEING ALL "HEY, IT'S YOU. I LIKE YOU. THANKS FOR NOT VANISHING LIKE HALF THE PORT."]

[myselfexcluded]

Doc! [Have a gleeful Washu] Seems like you've only been gone a week or so here, but I'm thinking the non-linear temporal displacement did a number on you, so it was probably longer for you. Am I right?

[Have a little smile, Doctor. It's nice to see someone familiar coming back, she'll admit that much.]

It's only been a few days, here. And do I have to get lumped with the rest of the 'blokes'? I'm still a girl on the outside, you know.

[ It's not the face she's used to seeing, but it is the Doctor, and he did come back. Guess his younger self was better with not being late. It still hurts a bit. She's glad though -- if only for the TARDIS and Rose's sake. ]

By your standards, not that long, actually.

[ She flashes him a brief smile. ]
