60. Ask me no questions and I'll tell ya no lies.

You know, I really don't feel affected this time. Thank god for that, I'm sick of the Admiral's bad driving skills.

[Parker is affected as hell. By the way, if your characters ask her her first name (which they will) her response will always get staticed or somehow drowned out. Otherwise, have at.]

Er... righto, sorry.

Rather a lot of useful things, but they would all, ah... probably kill you, because we're outside of the Universe.

Well, that's just fucking great, isn't it. How long were you gone?

I don't rightly know, actually. I lost track after I returned Una; too much had been going on for me to keep proper record. A month Galactic standard, perhaps? Two?

You're lucky you're a god damn time lord.

Why do you say that?

Because you are. Two months is a hell of a long time for someone like me.

Contrary to popular belief, Miss Parker, longevity offers very little respite from Time, nor some sort of shortcut. I feel every moment as you would, if not more deeply. I simply forget to count, on occasion.

If... if I had the option of making anything I've inflicted upon on my friends pass more quickly, I would do so at the drop of a hat.

Don't get emo again. You just got back.

Yes, but from what exactly, I have yet to determine.

Are you well? Did you stay safe whilst I was gone?

No I'm not well. I hate that Jarod's here. He makes me do stupid things.

Jarod? Your, ah... not-quite-friend, yes? You seem quite the capable woman, if I may point that out, and resistant to attempts of influence. How is he different? [curious, but largely expecting to be brushed off.]

He wants to be my god damn friend. I don't know why he wants to be my god damn friend but he does. And he's different because he's Jarod.

No more fucking questions. How would you like it if I asked you questions and you couldn't lie?

A great deal more than you would, apparently- but I don't make a habit of lying to begin with. Shall I leave you to your scheduled tantrum, then?

Yeah? What's the worst thing you've ever done?

It's not a scheduled tantrum. I cannot not answer a question. I can't even be that evasive about it!

...I've killed. I've abandoned. I've allowed so many people to die. Adric- I... I waged war across an entire galaxy, left half of it in ruin before I was done, to bring down a single Time Lord. I watched my oldest, dearest friend burn to death, even as he begged me to save him. I...

I ran. I gave up on changing Gallifrey, and I fled it instead.

[He doesn't even know if he's saying this on his own or not, but he trusts her nonetheless, and would have told her willingly to begin with; it never occurs to him.]

Not fun to have to answer it is it?

The oldest dearest friend was the Master, right?

...how I feel's got nothing to do with it. Had I known, I wouldn't have asked; I simply thought you trusted me once and for all to speak in earnest.

It was.

I don't trust anyone that much. Jarod...

Jarod bothers me.

Don't ask why.

Please.

Given what I understand now, I'll do no such thing, and I'm gravely sorry that I ran you into such a corner to begin with. I will say, however, that should you ever need sanctuary- even a silent ear- I will never break your confidence.

...under the circumstances, I should hope you'll at least believe me, whether you take the invitation or not.

I do believe you.

I just don't want to talk about it.
