Given the rather interesting little bit of art that appeared overnight, I was thinking of getting a group of experts together to go and see what's what.

So, if any of you lot are exp- well, probably not experts. More likely aficionados, given this melting pot of realities - of extraterrestrial sightings, history, or any sort of symbology, really, give me a bit of an example of your work.

[... He's way too excited about this crop circle jellyfish thing, okay]

Ooooh its been ages since I've had something right up my alley. Ha!

Private to the Eleventh Doctor/the TARDIS

Fancy a bit of an adventure? Nothing much ever comes of crop circles, but those magnetic spheres they found seem... promising.

Private to Jack/Rose/Amy

Nothing like a bit of farm art to get back into the spirit of things, hm? [AKA: hi. You're companions. You have no choice but to tag along with him on this silly adventure]

Private to Edriss/Washu

Where you two are from, how often do crop circles actually turn out to mean anything?

Private to Jubilee/Mary/Sheldon

Interested in seeing a proper alien adventure? No little blue box, mind, but she'll probably be there, too.

Skrit Na? Mind telling a bit more? Or are they just a race of intergalactic modern artists?

Oh, can't be that bad. Guarantee I've stumbled through worse.

They have an annoying life cycle in two phases- Skrit and Na. The Na, the adult form, is bipedal and gained a deserved reputation on Earth for kidnapping lone humans, conducting strange tests on them, and depositing them in remote locations. The idiots have even gotten into pop culture.

Ahhh, the reason your universe has for the various "alien abductions" in the 20th and 21st Centuries, then?

[He doesn't sound happy about that. Human experimentation is kind of a no-no in his book.]

Yes, by the famed gray aliens with oversized heads.

Careful! Met a nice couple once in Roswell. Their heads weren't that big.

Then they weren't Skrit Na.

Nope. Just Grey Aliens. Weren't too big on species names, figured they'd just play along with the humans.

[He does look thoughtful, though] The Skrit Na looked like that, though? Grey skin, large heads, big black eyes?

Only as Na.

Edited 2012-06-08 09:27 (UTC)

Right. Na, bipedal. Skrit, then... pupae? Quadrupeds? Larvae?

A large insectoid form with many legs resembling an Earth caterpillar, but far less friendly.

Giant, murderous, caterpillar?

Hate those.

On the contrary, the Skrit Na are allies of ours.

[Not through any especial choice of theirs, though. It's an accident of biology- the Skrit Na are biologically unsuitable as Yeerk ~~slaves~~ hosts, and so they ally.]

[His eyebrows arch up, almost incredulously]

Bit more than murderous caterpillars and human abductees, then? Or are they just the hired help?

I never called them murderous.

[He pauses, tonguing the side of his cheek, and then sort of grins, sheepishly]

Right, I was the one who jumped there. Sorry. Don't normally, but... well.

Ran into a few too many man-eating almost insects over the years.
