Session Start: Thu May 09 21:41:38 2002 Session Ident: #whosim *** Now talking in #whosim *** Topic is 'Adventures of Doctor X, part 1, by Jen Kokoski' *** Set by TheBrig on Thu May 09 21:24:15 Wonder where Tuna, Rob and Heather are? Hi Jen! *** TheBrig sets mode: +o Jacie Were they here earlier? I had a hard time getting on. DALnet took forever to connect me. Just me singing the Red Dwarf theme, at least on a keyboard I can carry a tune ;-) Hi Jen! Some one had changed the topic to "Got bored so I changed this;-) " but no one else was here can you make it to the vortex sim on saturday, Jen, to play the Damon and the Time Scoobies script? heather just came online *** DocEight has joined #whosim *** ChanServ sets mode: +o DocEight I really enjoy those just hope fake Xander never treats his Anya like the "real" Xander not to worry, they'll live happily ever after ::waves:: good morning everyone. Hi Heather! *** TheBrig has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) To answer your question, I'm doing Ok David. How's everyone here? Cody says he should make it, Jen hasn't said yet *** TheBrig has joined #whosim *** ChanServ sets mode: +o TheBrig Woozy. I fell asleep. did you have a nice talk with mom, Jen? well that bite and did you see my question a minute ago? test if not, then scroll up:-) As for Saturday, I may be. If I can bag out of my cousin's bridal shower. we see you, Cody be a bag, be a bag! hello Cody. I think I can. Mom's going, but I've conveniently not answered whether I'd go. Hi Heather oh, Serendipity is a must see And yes, I had a great talk with your mom David. She's a sweet lady. I'm glad she's home. same here! Been a rough week for you. yep yep, but making it thru Speaking of seeing, David let me know when we meet next if you've watched the latest Buffy Hang in there mon ami. Life does get better. okey dokey BTW, some good news here. Mom had her checkup with her oncologist yesterday. Her tumor markers are going down and she has minimal side effects. According to the doc "we've got things under control". 8-D Every little bit helps. According to the statistics this is the year most folks lose their battle with the monster, but Mom's still kicking. cool cool Just in time to receive my sister. Sis in Chicago got a job back here. She and the family will be moving in July 1. COincidentally, I'll be looking to travel again by then. ;) so looks like we probably have 4 people for the vortex on saturday, Heather oh, by the way, mike is moving back from seattle, leaving seattle jun. 1 LOL. Wanna go on the world tour then, David? Ah, they said I'd die as soon as I had another heart attack or in 2 years or less. That was almost 6 years and 2 heart attacks ago Alex said she'd be coming. Have car, will travel. ;) cool cool which world tour? depends on whom I tour with:-) I love medical science predictions. Personally, I prefer being the bumble bee of science... shouldn't fly but dammit she does. Me, of course. We'll just do the Born To Be Wild tour. You know I still want you to come beach bumming with me this year. what season of voyager does the sim theoretically take place in? yep yep, I know:-) Around season 5. Just after the Bride of Chaotica eps. Like some months later. I'm pretty much doing nothing for the next 2 hors...killing time before school. Perhaps season 6 so we can have Fair Haven in there. woops...I've got too many windows open oh oh, that's not good I was meaning to ask you Heather, how's Western AU? and I thought it was spelled Kaotica? Session Start: Thu May 09 21:56:13 2002 Session Ident: #whosim Session Close: Thu May 09 21:56:13 2002 that's okay I can check my star trek cards The other week a female ransport driver saw my "Dr Who USA Tour" cap and told me how much she liked Roger Daltry :-) It's warmer than Melbourne, that's for sure. But it's pretty cool. No, it's Chaotica according to the ST ep guide. How much warmer? umm....usually about 5-10 degrees. It doesn't rain as much here. It's not hot and sticky then, is it? that's how the card game spells it too lol been having some really nasty storms here lately, they even have another watch on tonight on the who joke usually it is. But this summer has been relativly mild. That's good. Weather here has been nutty. 40's one week and 80's the next. Farenheight that is. We don't do no stinking metric in the US of A. ;P I just wonder what she thought a blue Police box had to do with the Who sounds like fun. LOL yes, you americans are backward savages ;-) And damn proud of it, ma'am! hey, I want to play that voyager guy, the one played by the boy who could fly just remember, we backward savages saved your butts during WWII Actually Ben Franklin proposed we use the metric system over 225 years ago oh wait, that's what we tell those frenchies :-) whenever they get snooty Everyone tells the Frenchies that. Oh wait, no they tell them "Put up your hands and surrender." French "GET" snotty, now that is funny :-) Hey, don't knock my Frenchies. Don't you know Gerard d'pardu is the greatest actor alive? one of my favorite phrases I'd love to tell the frenchies some time is... "Come the NEXT Revolution, it will be 'up against the wall, comrade!"" I know, I'm just being mean Thinking Gerard D"Pardu is a sex symbol really helps explain all that Jerry Lewis is a genius stuff ;-) yes it does LOL I think it's the wine they consume. CASTING CALL, everyone? <=========Fred <===========Either Tom or the Doctor <==========or maybe Harry I'm not sure how long I can stay.... <============whoever is left over, don't want to play chakotay though oh no, please stay!!! <===== Dr. Chaotica... how can I resist my fiendish genius? we don't have to play everyone in the voyager cast, but think you may be right I'll have to get off just before I leave for school, so Just warning you. okey dokey, just play as much as you can and have fun <=== Nunzac and filins as they come up hey jen, you should check and see if voyager disappeared before or after Our Man Bashir *** TheBrig is now known as Nunzac <> *** Jacie is now known as HoloJen <<>> <> <<>> @ = Wood Between The Worlds # = Voyager Maintenance HoloDeck @ Hermit>::sits on his favorite rock drawing figures in the dirt with his stick as the travelers materialize into view:: # ::in a rather antiseptic science room, various images play across the holosuite viewscreen:: *** AlxKeegan is now known as DWFred <> @ :::As Fred comes out of the pool, her clothing changes from the period garb she wore to that of her jumpsuit::: @ TARDIS> ::: TO Irish::: //// A kitty, a kitty!

A souvenir, I see. @ :::Irish's ears prick up as he hears Voice in his mind once more::: @ It was a very interesting experience. Magic and adventure and excitement. <> @ Hermit>::glances at cup:: Yes, I thought you might enjoy that. It's a pretty bauble. Mind if I examine it? *** DocEight is now known as DocTen @ Doctor>It's rather more than just a bauble, kind sir. A very fascinating piece of technology. @ I don't mind. @ :::holds it out for the Hermit to look over::: @ Doctor>I suspect it works on the transfiguration on the microcellular level with an added energy boost from our powerful Fred here. @ Hermit>::examines cup with a sly grin:: Still don't entirely believe in magic, Doctor? <> ::smiles:: Everything has an explination. # Tom>::reviewing the diagnostic logs:: Story structure subroutines functioning normally. How are the safety routines? <> <> # >Kim > That holo that almost got us killed is still in the dta banks? ::Punches some keys and screen starts showing "Captain Proton, Chapter 41... Chatica Returns!" # Kim> I'd say that was a safety problem *** DWFred has quit IRC (Ping timeout) @ Looks like the old girls pulled herself together. ::grins and pulls out his key.:: @ >TARDIS> /// Kitty is green, I know green. Grass is green and new leaves and ... and.... Green//// @::walks over to the TARDIS and puts the key in to poen the door:: Home at last...let's see how you look. # "Having escaped Captain Proton by returnig as his own clone, Chaotica capture the Captain and the lovely Constance Goodhart" @::tries to turn the key but it's spat back out:: # Tom>Oh no, not him again. I knew I forgot to erase something. "But unknow to Chaotica and his henchman Nunzac there is still one Earthling freee to save the day. The loyal stalwart "Buster" Keegan" # Tom>No problem. I'll just purge the backup data cells. *** AlxKeegan has joined #whosim @ ::TARDIS gurgles and spits out the Doctor's key with shudder:: # Kim > ::Holds up hand:: Not so fast.... looks like the old sidekick is going to the rescue *** Nunzac sets mode: +o AlxKeegan @ > TARDIS> /////Kitty, kitty, can I pet kitty?//// @::listens to the funny gurgling that the TARDIS makes:: Hmm...I guess she's still feeling a bit under the weather. # Tom>Harry, you should know better than to trust these recaps, remember? Besides Captain Proton always saves the day. *** AlxKeegan is now known as DWIrish @ Maker, Voice doesn't sound right. She sounds kittenish. # > Kim> :::Watches as Buster downs 2 guard with a double punch::: Oh yeah? It looks like the ole boy has some real...:::thinks:: grit? # Tom>::gets his boyish grin:: Oh no, no, no. I know what your thinking Harry. @ >TARDIS ////sillly, you kitty. I'm... I am... :::Starts to whimper:: @ She doesn't sound well at all. She needs help. @I guess she's still recovering. # >Kim> Ah come on Tom. You know we both went over all the faults and even triple checked them. so why can't we... *** DWIrish is now known as DWFred # Tom>The Captain expressly ordered us to finish this diagnostic, not play 20th century rocketmen. @ ::::quirks an eyebrow as she listens to the TARDIS::: @ Hermit>Yes, yes, I fear our friend is whole but not quite. Yet. @ Doctor, I think Voice is doing what you'd call a database reconfiguration. # >KIM> And we have finished the diansti and checked and rechecked , so why can't we take a little break? Just for an hour, half an hour even @ Hermit>She's brand new, you might say. Still figuring out her world. She's been asking many questions like that. @ Hermit>::pauses on a thought:: Why is the sky blue and the grass green and not the other way around? @ Irish> Voice will need me to answer all the important questions, like what to fix me for lunch. @ > TARDIS> /// I feel funny, what's wrong? Who am I?/// @ @ Irish> Don't worry, Maker, I'll help Voice out. @ So she still needs a little more time? # Tom>::smile broadens at the prospect:: If the Captain finds out... It was all your idea, Ensign. @ Thank you Irish. # ::: Takes the Captian Proton flight jacket out of the costume locker :: Guess they could make a stool cover or two out of this... I mean if you're NEVEr going to use it again... @ I'm sure you'll help a great deal. @ Irish> ::walking over and sitting beside the TARDIS:: Not a problem, Maker. # Tom>::grabs flight jacket:: Hey! It only looks good on me, Buster. @ :::meanwhile, Fred has made short work of the toast and jam, all the while keeping her face and hands clean::: # > Kim > :::Hands Paris the flight jacket and smiles :: Lets get ready the... :::Talks over seriously:: Captain Proton! # ::as the two don their costumes the Chaotica simulation continues:: @ Shall we visit some other place, Doctor? Or do you need a nap? I rested on the car ride back to London, but if you need the rest, I can take a nap, too. # Chaotica>::strokes his goatee with a menacing stride around his captive:: Now then Miss Goodheart, shall we take this from the top? @ > TARDIS>> /// Nap? I know nap, kitty come nap with me?/// @ :::Gulps down the just-warm-enough, not-too-hot hot chocolate:::: # ::Constance Goodheart's blue eyes widen with fear as she's strapped to the monstrous Cradle of Persuasion:: # ::::Enters swirling cape and catching it on a control lever. He yanks it away before he can be seen and strides forward:: @ It's fine Fred. Another place would be ideal while the TARDIS recovers. # Chaotica>Where is Proton's ship? Answer carefully, my dear. Satan's Robot has a very short threshhold for inflicting immense pain. # Great an glorious leader, I have personally thrown that annoying Earthman into :: Pause for effect::: The Pit Of Dispair! @ :::picks up the Cup and walks over to Irish:: @ Now, watch over the Cup while I'm gone, Irish. @ Irish> :::sighs::: All right. I know, it's all a plot to make me the Cup Bearer. It's too late, you know, you're the Cup Bearer now. # Chaotica>Ahha... so my revenge is complete. Proton will die the horrific, excruciating death he deserves. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! # :::Cackles wildly along with his master::: # Chaotica>:;sucks in deep breath after meniacal laugh:: Shall we watch Nunzac? # Oh thank you gracious one @ Hermit>Well then, my feline friend, I was just about to sit down to tea. Can I interest you in some cream? @ :::Irish's eyes light up:: Yes please. If you wouldn't mind bringing it over here? @ Come on Fred...I'll let you lead the way this time. # > Kim > :::Laces cuff of his jodphurs to fit and then stans up:: Do we get to wear those ancient pellet trowing weapons? # ::On queue Constance Goodheart opens her lungs and screams a shrill cry of terror:: @ :::Fred gets the rings ready::: @ Keen! @ :::Fred picks a pool, and runs over to it:: @ Cowabunga!!!! # :: At scream, throws back his head and laughs::: Oh so little time and so much terror to enjoy @ :::slips on the ring as she jumps into the pool, yelling like crazy and holding her nose::: # Tom>::disperses the weapons:: They're called blasters Harry, and they work on electricity. A rather crude weapon come to think of it. Sort of like attacking folks with a flash light. @ ::follows Fred:: $ = Chaotica's Lair (Doc's arrival place) $ ::at Constance's shrill scream, Chaotica launches into another long meniacal cackle of pleasure:: # >Kim> Oh I did some research, did you know that they always used holsters with flaps so that they could be empty when they did stunts? $ :::the familiar sensation of passing swiftly thru a watery tunnel passes quickly::: # Tom>::as they walk off for the holodeck 1 suite:: Pity they actor who forgot his blaster for a crucial scene. $ :::yelling and grinning, Fred appears in mid-air, landing on Nunzac and knocking him flat on this stomach:::: $ Whoa!!! $ :::looks down underneath her::: # Whooooooooooooooof ! $ Well, at least there was something soft to land on. $ ::appears a few seconds later:: $ :::Grins at the doctor as he appears::: $ :::frowns as she notices something different::: $ Doctor, why aren't we in color? $ ::looks down at himself and all around him:: I'm not sure. Perhaps the light in this world acts differently on the Visual cortex? $ :::Groans and tries to draw his blaster::: $ ::holds out a hand for Fred:: $ CHaotica>Nunzac! Get up you fool. Who are these intruders? # = holodeck 1 (Harry, Tom & HoloDoc) $ ::Aims blaster at the Doctor and Fred::: Do not worry master. Soon they willl be but piles of ash $ ::hops off the person underneath her::: $ ::Constance screams again loud and shrill:: $ :::she looks around with interest at the lab::: # Tom>Alright, but just an hour Harry? # > Kim > ::Donning headgear::: Now just remember this time , you ::points at Paris:::: are a prisoner and I ::points to himself:: gets to rescue all those poor harem girls # Tom>::punches buttons on the external control panel:: Computer transfer Proton Simulation to HoloSuite 1 and activate. # Tom>::smiles:: Whatever you say Harry. Besides B'lanna would have my liver if she knew I was rescuing cheesy harem girls again. ::jokes as he blindly walks into the holodeck:: $ :::looks around to see who is doing the screaming> $ ::winces slightly as the scream continues:: $ ::::sees Constance Goodheart trapped in the machine::: $ Perhaps you should go help, Fred? $ Just what I was thinking, Doctor. # Tom> ::as soon as he steps on to the holodeck his head is bonked by a small, hard ball:: $ :::smiles at the Doctor, then runs off to help the damsel in distress::: $ ::Fires blaster but nothing happens::; Grrr:::throws it down and charge forward::: You broke it you witch! # Tom> Ow! ::rubs head and notices something is wrong:: It's in color. $ ::looks back over her shoulder, sticks out her tongue at Nunzac, and gives him a quick raspberry::: # Tom> Harry I thought you checked the visual subroutines? # DID they get a bigger budget? # I thought you did, I just scanned them as a backup # ::Calls out:: Archway ::Goes to console and puches the keys:: $ ::ignores everything for a moment as he tries and figures out why the world's in Black and white:: # ::To Paris :: The subrountines are fine, the problem is someone is over riding our program # HoloDoc>Excuse me, playing through. ::steps out of a crowd of notable scientists:: Nice shot Louis. < 8-D > # HoloDoc>Now where did that ball go... ::sees Harry and Tom in their getups:: Oh no, you don't. I had the holosuite first. <> $ :::Fred looks over the device, trying to figure out how to get Constance out of it::: $ How do you do? I'm Fred. # Tom>Doc? ::doubletakes at the man's Scottish dress complete with kilt and a dirk:: $ COnstance>::looks at the strange woman in monosyllabic terror:: # > Kim > What are you doing here Doctor? # HoloDoc>You have a problem with my attire, Lt. Paris? Considering your own... eccentric ware, I find that highly amusing. $ Now, what does this thing do? More importantly, how do we get you out of this? # Tom>No Doc, no. ::hides a chuckle:: What are you doing here? # > KIm> However Doctor. We were ordered to perform a dianostic... ::Notices the glares at his and Paris's clothing::: Welll... we ... ah.. had to run a practice test to insure everything was working properly # HoloDoc>If you must know, I'm indulging in an old Earth tradition of my colleagues. 18 holes with the greatest scientific minds in history. ::waves at Louis Pasteur:: $ ::Tries to fight with the Doctor:: # HoloDoc>I find that hard to believe Ensign. More likely you two were indulging in more juvenile exploits. # ::Mutters to Paris:: Juevenile? At least we aren't waering dresses $ ::defends himself against Nunzac and walks forward after he's passed:: $ Well, what's your name? And who are those two creepy guys? $ ::Sits up on the floor and is puzzled at how he got there:: # HoloDoc>::sneers haughtily:: Not that it matters to you uncultured swine, but it is a kilt. # HoloDoc>With the Stuart Tartan I might add. One of the noblest houses in Scotland. Quite appropos to the surroundings, don't you think. # > Kim> Kilt? ah yes, an English invention for the military, what has that to do with playing a game? # HoloDoc>Oh come now Ensign Kim, don't you recognize one of the galaxy's best golf courses? St. Andrews By The Sea is legendary. Just smell that brisk salt air. $ Interesting. # Kim> Smells like rotting vegetation to me. $ ::Slips out the door to find guards:: # Kim> Now the Pacific, that's an ocean! $ Chaotica>Explain yourself, sir! What is the meaning of this intrusion? $ :::finally, Fred finds the release button for the device::: $ :::It springs open, allowing Constance to fall to the floor::: # HoloDoc>::sighs and smirks:: In any case, I still have 6 more holes to play so be gone the pair of you. $ :::Constance pulls herself up shakily:::: $ We just dropped in. Sorry if we interupted. We'll leave if you want. ::turns and heads for the door:: come on Fred. $ :::Eases back into the room leading 5 armed guards ::: Stop Earthman. $ Constance> Where's Capt. Proton? He's the one who's supposed to rescue me! $ Chaotica>Excellent Nunzac. Contain them! $ :::Fred looks over the device some more in an attempt to figure out how it works::: $ ::To the guards::: You heard your master you dogs, grab them. <"Join me, Obi-Wan, and together we'll destroy the Sith!"> $ :::looks around::: Dogs? I don't see any dogs. $ ::To Chaotica:: Shall they be tossed into The Pit of Despair or perhaps The Tunnel of The Fire Dragon? $ Chaotica>Not yet Nunzac. I think we'll have some answers out of them first. $ Chaotica>::stalks over to the Doctor:: I want to know how they penetrated the Lightning Shield. $ :::Smiles broadly::: Excellent Genious of the Cosmos, we can tortue them first $ Lightening shield? $ Chaotica>::glares at the silent Doctor, then shoots an arm out toward Fred:: Put the girl in the Cradle. $ :::to the Doctor:: What's a lightening shield? $ ::to Fred:: I really don't know. $ Stop pretending you don't know earthling. Or maybe I should throw your female companion against the Lightening Sheild so you can see what it does? $ CHaotica>We'll see if we can pursuade her to tell us the truth. Or her friend here can watch her die. $ Cradle? $ ::thinks for a moment:: Oh, ahh...Magic. I did it with Magic. $ :::looks at the device, doesn't see much resemblance to a cradle, but gets the idea anyway::: $ No thanks. $ Chaotica>Lies! There is no such thing as magic. To the Cradle of Persuasion with her, Nunzac. $ ::Fred tries to fight off the guards, but is unable to prevent herself from being placed in the device:::: # > Kim > ::To the holo Doctor:: I'm sure you find your "friends" and this boring game interesting, but Paris and I have work to do here $ You are so generous great one, may I cinch her straps myself? # HoloDoc>There's more than enough room for your "work" in Holodeck 2. $ Listen. Can't we start again. I'm the Doctor and this is my Companion Fred. And you are..... # Tom> Didn't someone call golf a good way to ruin a walk outside? :::grins::: # We... we... ::looks to Paris for help::: $ ::Gives Nunzac a kick in the chin for his troubles::: $ Chaotica>::annunciating every evil syllable:: Doc-tor Cha--o--t--i--ca! # Tom>We need to test both holodecks at once. $ ::Falls again:: Guards! Take her! $ no no, It's just Doctor. or were you talking about your name? $ :::enunciating every symbol:: Fred! <:-)> # HoloDoc>Why? # > Kim> ::Shuffles then turns to the HOloDoctor:: So we can detect if there is any reversal in the polarity of the neutron flow # Tom>Yeah, that's right. So your game will just have to wait Doc. # ::Turns back and whispers to Paris:: I heard that on an old viceo last week ::winks:: <"I'm going to destroy the world!" "No, I AM!"> <> $ :::Fred gives up struggling for the moment::: $ This would be a good time to uncork some pheremones, if I had any. $ Chaotica>Now then the truth out of you, girl. Satan's Robot, start her with 50 jules of pure pain. $I'm sure there's no need for that, you know. $ Robot>I o-bey! > What looks like an overgrown expresso machine starts to turn a wheel:: $ ::the machine begins to hum and strum a kaliedoscope of strobing lights around Fred:: $ ::all seem to hum in a faint 80's rock beat:: $ :::Constance watches in sympathetic horror::: $ :::Fred braces herself for pain, then is surprised to find herself feeling quite pleasant::: $ :::Fred giggles::: <> $ Stop it, that tickles! $ Chaotica>180 jules! $ Chaotica>You will answer me girl. Where did you come from and why are you in my lair? $ ::Snarls at the Doctor:: I hope she resists so you can see what happens next # HoloDoc>I don't believe you. I think we should just take this up with the Captain, shall we? $ I come from the sun Odin's Eye, and I'm in your lair to keep from getting bored while the TARDIS repairs herself. $ ::glances back and forth between Chaotica and Fred:: $ Chaotica>Odin's Eye? The kingdom of my mentor? $ :::Settles back into the machine::: Any other silly questions? $ Chaotica>::spins dramatically:: Then you must be the Doctor? $ Mentor? Isn't he from Titan? # > Kim> Now octor.. let's be reasonable ::An alarm starts blaring and a voice form the arch says::"All Senior Officers to the bridge, repeat all senior officers to the bridge" $ Chaotica>Doctor X, so we meet at last. ::smiles:: # Tom>So much for that Harry. Your harem girls will have to wait. $ Chaotica>I've heard of your renegade exploits thru time and space. $ You have? $ Chaotica>But the question remains, who are you working for this time? # >> Kim > :::Looks at his and paris laced jodphurs and flight clothes:::Sigh, and no time for putting on our uniforms either. Oh well, let's move $ I'm not working for anyone. $ Chaotica>Everyone knows you obey the highest bidder. Who is it? Our mentor or could it be that villanous harridan determined to thwart my resurrection...? $ Chaotica>::pauses from drama:: The Mistress of Discontent?! $ ::Constance screams once more::: # Tom>Cheer up Harry. ::whispers as they head for the lift:: At least we're not wearing skirts. $ Oh, I can answer that one! # :::In lift turns eyes to Paris:: It's not any embaressemnet... Don't you realise the instant she sees us the Chaotica's :Bride" will know what we were up to? $ ::before Fred can answer the music hits a menacing crescendo and Constance screams once more before fainting on the spot:: $ ::Twist finger in his ear:: I wish she'd stop doing that $ :::Fred takes a deep breath, then speaks::: $ The Doctor is a renegade Timelord, a champion of Good, a master scientist, he walks the corridors of time, bringing light to the dark places. $ :::gets her breath back::: $ ::smiles at the Doctor::: How was that? $ Very good. ::smiles::
