(A rip from Doctor Who, as a certain old Litster gave me a renewed love in the series. This is more a tribute thread in regard to her love for it, and the character I created in a short story was one that she said was wonderful. If you're interested in taking part in this, please PM me.)
"Learn how to drive, they say. Ohho, if they only knew just how hard that can be when there's no such thing as bloody driver's test for a damned TIME MACHINE..." A little sigh was given as the young woman leaned across the control panel, peering at the various screens that wavered and flailed before her. "Erm. Right. See, now, this is another of those points where a better understanding of all this would have been a much greater lesson to have been taught than just 'hop in and hit things'... MOM..." A glare was shot over her shoulder as she reached up, pulling the goggles that rested atop her head down over her eyes. Where exactly the glare had been directed didn't seem that obvious a thing, the large chamber seeming more empty than occupied.
Sliding around the console, she gripped onto the counterside, pulling herself down and under before positioning underneath the unit. "Eeny... meeny... miney- Yah." Squinting up at it, she reached into her pocket, taking out the little tubelike device and prodding it up into the wiring. "And here we are..."
Or not.
A bright spark flew out of the unit as the little device gave a sharp buzzing sound, the young woman yelping and hastily tugging herself back out from under the console.
"Oh, that's just- that's just wonderful! Leave me a machine that doesn't even like me, Mom! That's just- Ohhhh don't you even DARE laugh at me...." The device was flailed into that particular direction that earned her anger, a sour look to her face. "Don't think I don't hear you! I think you're just jealous! That's what it is, isn't it? You and that friend of yours, always so jealous you were never a Ginger. 3 times, Mom. Three. Times."
With a sigh, she slid the device back into her pocket, glancing around the chamber once again and wrinkling her nose as she placed her thumbs into her pants. "Erm. Well. Doesn't look like much'll be working for me in here at the moment... May as well see what type of luck we can have out in the public eye, eh?" She paused, clicking her tongue on the roof of her mouth and making a face. "Ugh, that accent... It keeps trying to come through. Ohho, that's all you as well. Cursin' me, that's what it is..."
Starting for the door, she smirked as she cracked it open, peering out hesitantly from the large space into the street of what seemed to be an early 21st century street. "Good start there, then. Hopefully nothing trying to shoot me... or see my innards..."
She finally stepped out completely, turning back around to view her transport with a laugh. "Oh, that's just beautiful! There we are again. Something that friend of yours couldn't do. Broke his damn TARDIS... Never blended in right. Ha..." She laughed a bit more, resting her hand against it and beaming. "... I own a tree."
Peeking around again, she paused, realizing that the goggles were still resting on her face. "Oh. Ohh. Nope." Quickly sliding them back up to the top of her head, she smiled once more, taking a look around. "Now here's to hoping I don't stand out too terribly..." Stretching er arms up over her head, she continued to tug them from one side then the other as she walked along, crooning out happily as the smell of food hit her nose.
"Oh that's a good smell. Good smells are a good thing. That's why they're called good." Nodding affirmingly at this, she decided to do the animalistic approach and simply follow her nose.
Restaurant. "Diner". Quaint.

Appearance
Name: Romanadvoratrelundar Junior ("Romy" - Or, continuing in the lines of those before her... "Doctor", though she truly hates the reference)
Age: Currently, she goes with 28.
Race: Time Lady
Bio: The daughter of Romana, one of the Time Lord known as The Doctor's former companions. After parting ways from the Doctor, Romana took up a life of her own, giving birth to Romy during her travels. She had worried during her pregnancy if her child would retain the regeneration of those from Gallifrey, only to be made aware of it upon her daughter's birth- the child was stillborn... momentarily. The number of regenerations Romy can accomplish, however, is not known... and she certainly doesn't want to test it. She has already lost 2 previous lives; the first, when she was born, and the second, during her initial meeting with the TARDIS her mother left to her.
Currently, Romy is learning about the universe and its inhabitants in the same manner as her ancestors...
Go see it.
All of it.
She likes to tinker, and enjoys trying to modify the TARDIS as well as creating devices of her own. Her current favorites are her own version of a Sonic Screwdriver and her Chronoton Inhibitor (it makes time not... work... good.)
