[There is an awkward, stiff cough, and a shot of the eighth floor common room. A young, very smartly dressed, man appears on screen, and he straightens his tie, then offers a small wave,]

Hello!

This remote viewer is tiny, and... well, I never thought a remote viewer could watch you. Fascinating! [He grins, a touch nervously,] So if you're watching, hello! oh, I already said that...

I'm Edward Russett, but you can call me Eddie. I'm not quite sure whether this is the equivalent of Useful Work or a Pointless Task, but I'm sure I'll find out soon enough.

Who are the local Prefects? What're they like? I imagine I'll be the Red Prefect here.

[awkward pause whilst he ponders whether to ask or not, then he directs the camera to a lightbulb nearby]

This is going to sound silly, but can I have some lightglobes? There's no natural light in my room. I... [slight nervous intake of breath. Dammit, night terrors.] I need a source of light.

Thank you! It matches the scarf perfectly.

Mmm, I don't think Prefect knows about cricket. Anyway, if I see him around I'll point him in your direction.

Where's your room? I'll bring the lamps by soon.

Very, very elegant shades. The scarf is quite exceptional.

He doesn't? That's a shame. Thank you. What's the Prefect's name?

I'm currently in the common room on the eighth floor; if you could bring them here, that would be most appreciated, sir.

Oh, forgive me, what's your name?

Prefect's name is Prefect. And as for me? I'm the Doctor, but as there are four of me on the Barge, call me Theta.

His name is...

Nice to meet you, Theta. Friend?

Re: video

[doctor-scarf.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, we're definitely friends! You like my scarf!

Good!

It is a very nice scarf. I prefer the coat, actually. You're not a Red, are you?

No, I'm a Time Lord. So sorry to disappoint.

Re: video

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

A Time... what?

What does that mean?

Re: video

[doctor-scarf.livejournal.com]

It means that I'm a Time Lord. That's my species. Well, technically it's more of a rank. I'm Gallifreyan.

You're not... human?

That's correct!
