Hellooooooooooooooooooooo Nysans!

Nysans? El Nysans? El Nysonians? I don't know. Weird, this new planets lark, I'm out of practice, it's been a while. New planets! Fun!

Anyway. Hello. Occurred to me just now, and by just now I mean I'm bored and it's occurred to me before but I've been storing it up for an opportune moment, that there's a lot of you to whom I still haven't introduced myself! And since introducing myself can sometimes be a bit of a palaver, I'm going to go ahead and get through as many of you as I can with this one quick broadcast. Right. Here we go. Ready? Ready.

[ here, the stupid strange-faced bowtie-wearing man with the big grin who's staging a brief (I say brief...) takeover of your screens and attention takes a deeeeeep breath. rubs his hands together!!! grins again, and— ]

Hi! Hello. I'm the Doctor. Yes, the Doctor, not a doctor, though I'm one of those too, in many disciplines, none of them medical. Can still probably save you from losing a leg if I can get my hands on the right alien tech, though. Bit of a jack of all trades. Space and time travelling alien, to get that bit out of the way while we're at it. Two hearts. Legs. Okay? Okay.

While I'm here, let's play a getting to know you game. Yeah? [ a pause, in which he's waiting for an answer that he— apparently receives? from who, your guess is as good as mine. ] Hah hah. Yeah. Good. Getting to know you through the age old medium of word association! This is either going to be great fun or get very boring very quickly, so we'll see how it goes. It's the extended edition, rules are slightly different: for every word you give, you have to explain the link from the last one. However obvious.

Ready? Okay. Here we go. I'll give you a few choices for a starter. ... Train, story, sun, space, fashion, smile, or hope.

And we're off!

[ and he's... also off. (thank God????) good luck nysa... ]

You...look practically human.

[bypassing the game to remark that you just look like any old Earthling sorry bud.]

[mmiab]

Uh, no. Humans look Time Lord. We came first.

[ not to RECYCLE FROM THE SCRIPT BUT ]

[juniberries]

So are humans descendants of your kind?

[mmiab]

What? No. They just happened to end up roughly the same sort of shape. A universe is an awfully big place. There's always going to be overlap.

Sex.

[ She doesn't normally keep up with the network (when you're from a fantasy world, things like modern technology can be a bit intimidating), but this person actually seems interesting. Talks a bit fast, but if that's the worst of her complaints, than she really can't justify not responding.

So have a bright-eyed teen smiling at you on your screen, Doctor. ]

I think it's Nysans, but I could be wrong. But I like El Nysonians! Maybe we can just shorten it to Nysonians. Do you think they would mind? The El doesn't seem as important.

[ They can get back to the word association thing later, this is a very pressing matter! ]

Idiot.

[It's a bit hard to follow all of that, but he's enthusiastic at least.]

You speak as if you have been to other worlds before.

[ IMMEDIATELY BANNED???? this is a family SHOW ]

First of all, did you even listen to the rules? There was one rule! Second of all, no, no you didn't, the rule was "explain your word choice", you're welcome. Third of all please don't actually do that I don't need to know.

Education. As in sex education. An important element of any human upbringing. Your turn.

[vorrutyer]

Breasts.

[ Hahahaha Doctor you're so funny and loud and he wants you to suffer a bit. ]

[mmiab]

[ oh my god?! first of all I hate you second of all what did I just say

fine. fine. ]

[Ah, it's the man who gave him a bowtie. It was the only blue one out of a dozen blue print ties. To think that he was an alien the whole time. Kind of not surprising, but he can't fault the man for being positive.]

Upbeat...

[vorrutyer]

Luscious rear ends.

[mmiab]

[ this is indeed a very pressing matter and he's perfectly happy for everything else to be put on hold until it's resolved! ]

I think that would probably be fine! And if it isn't we can always keep it a secret. Mumble unintelligibly before "Nysonians", if anyone asks it could have been the El.

[mmiab]

[ his attempt to be the bigger man has lasted exactly one (1) round. too much no more ]

That's not even a single word. And you're not playing by the rules.

[mmiab]

Did anybody listen to me when I listed the one individual rule? You'll notice how I said both one and individual to emphasis exactly how not difficult it would have been to pay a little bit of attention.

[mmiab]

I do, yes. Which would be fair. Because I have.

[vorrutyer]

My deepest apologies, dear Doctor. You're quite right. Now - the reason I'm thinking about luscious rear ends...

I don't believe you drew breath from start to finish.

[Gods, there are some ridiculous people here.]

[mmiab]

[ listen, person he absolutely recognises and would otherwise wish to be more polite to, later he'll be very sorry that you have to bear the brunt of this, but right now he's only been at this five minutes but he's already very tired and he just - ]

Extended edition. Extended edition? Extended edition.

[ he's delirious. somebody help him. ]

[mmiab]

If you absolutely have to can you at least try and stick to all the of the two very simple rules at once? Bums. There you go, one word. Carry on.

[mmiab]

Once or twice! But that's another nifty part of being my particular brand of alien. Less of a dire need to take a breath on the regular.

Floor-Merlin. I hyphenated it, just to be clear! I chose that after train, because that's where I encountered a Floor-Merlin, which is apparently a normal thing that he does. Everyone says so.

[vorrutyer]

The way in which you're dressed.

[veneries]

Aren't we all aliens here? None of us are from this land.

[You know how it is when you're hiding from your murderous wife and her brother in law. Can't let anyone figure out you're you!]
