February ni- is it really February 19th?

[Guess who's been a bit, er, distracted for the last week or so. But hey! Better late than never, in his book.]

Ahhhh not the worst I've been with losing track of time, at least. Bit common, really. Either way, I do have a bit of a question. A nice little public inquiry of sorts!

I've been hearing talk of elections and police forces floating about, figured it was about time to get the whole history of the place, now that I've figured out some of the scientific and physical make-up of this city, its inhabitants, the 'powers' some of you are developing. And, well, this many people trapped in one place, some with powers and some without, seems a bit like chaos waiting to happen. Well, not waiting. Been listening to the news broadcasts, at least. [Just... not the dates.] And see, I have a friend in the police force. Well, in the investigative division. Well... no, actually. Not sure what she does. Bit of information on that would be nice.

Otherwise, I'd especially appreciate a rundown on magic, actually. Where I'm from its not entirely possible, just a different branch of science. Where humans mastered atoms and the combination of chemicals others you would label as witches and wizards mastered words. So if there's anyone willing to just meet up somewhere and give me a magic demonstration, just let me watch a bit, take down some calculations... might help on figuring out what makes this place so... ohIdunno, different, I suppose. What makes it so easy to trap us here. Changes the rules and laws of physics and keeps us trapped.

[He pauses, takes in a deep breath to calm down, and when he speaks again? Well, it sounds downright cheerful.]

Would also like a recommendation for a good florist, if there are any still operating in all this snow. Always tend to miss Earth traditions...

Forgot Valentine's Day? [ a little humorously; he wishes he can forget that day. ]

And... sorry, can't help with the magic thing.

[universaljanitor]

A bit, yeah... tend to forget birthdays a lot. And aniversaries, too. Comes with the job, more or less.

Not even a first hand account? Witnesses are just as important!

The job?

Nope, not really.. this whole superpowers thing is a bit new to me.

voice;

[universaljanitor]

Well.... more of a lifestyle choice, really. Not a job so much as a hobby. A sort of life's work, if you will!

[He lets out a disappointed puff of air] Ahh too bad, that. My lines open any time you see anything.

Oh! Sorry. I'm the Doctor; the tall, thin, more handsome one.

[acclimatized]

Uhhh, say no more. I think I get it. [ probably. ] I'll keep that in mind if I ever see anything.

John Watson. You're Amy's friend, aren't you?

[universaljanitor]

Amy? The tall, ginger one with legs that go on for a mile? [Er, right. Be nice to the future companion.] A bit, yeah. Still getting to know her, more or less. Her Doctor is the one with floppy hair, Easter Island head, and a bow tie. I'm a bit of an older model. So-

[... wait.] Hold on, did you say- [Watson. John Watson. The John Watson.] No. [This is really John Watson] No!

[Oh does he sound excited]

[acclimatized]

[ probably a good thing the conversation about the multiple doctors in the port is derailed, because john isn't sure how to respond. nor does he know how to react in this peculiar situation, where someone is getting excited over him. ]

Uhhh, yeah? Hi.
