[Scrad is looking angry. And alone. No backpack. No Charlie. He shakes slightly as he speaks.]

I want. The rest of my body back. Right. Now.

If I don't get it, I'm gonna...

[Scrad's eyes dart to the side, and his mouth opens and closes soundlessly, before he just cuts the the feed. Charlie would know what they were gonna do, but he has no idea.]

I don't take it as a compliment. Nor is it usually meant as one.

There is a hypothetical universe where words instead of mathematics are the building blocks of reality. I consider myself quite lucky that I don't live there.

[twoheadsofcabbage]

...Oh.

I mean: it doesn't make you anything, but people tell you what you are because you are.

[timesbureaucrat]

If that were true, I'd be a power-mad schemer plotting to seize control over Gallifrey, and throwing all who oppose me into the Oubliette of Eternity.

[twoheadsofcabbage]

That seems like a pretty good plan.

Doesn't it?

[timesbureaucrat]

Except I don't actually want to rule Gallifrey. That little point would make any effort to embark on a scheme to seize power for myself rather foolish of me.

[twoheadsofcabbage]

Well, yeah. But if you did. Throwing people in stuff is pretty standard.

[timesbureaucrat]

I'd like to think that if I were a power mad tyrant I'd be a little more original.

[twoheadsofcabbage]

You could do that too. It's not so much a time to experiment. Because there's, you know, always another power mad tyrant behind you.
