[the sound of someone walking cheerfully along, then an abrupt pause.]

...What?

[more irritably] Why would-- Omega!

Yes, Doctor?

Ah, yes. I thought you might be hovering around, or whatever it is you do. Care to explain this?

[irritated] Even if I knew to what you were referring, I see no reason why I should explain anything to you.

Why is your name on my door, and why have I not noticed it before now?

[short pause] Perhaps because it was not there before? I have no use for the room, so you may consider it yours.

That is rubbish, and you know it. What are you up to?

Nothing, Doctor. Nothing at all.

[[Omega's control is starting to slip a bit, so if anyone want to see him arguing with himself in silly voices in the hallway, feel free. xD]]

[ she's just come out of her own room when she notices someone arguing with himself down the hall. she curiously walks over, and she recognizes the voice. ]

Doctor?

[looks up -- he was scowling, now he's just startled]

Oh. Hello, Yue.

[themoonspirit.livejournal.com]

Is everything all right? You sounded upset about something... I don't mean to be nosy, but I was worried.

[cosmic-engineer.livejournal.com]

Nothing to be worried about, merely a disagreement with an... acquaintance of mine.

[themoonspirit.livejournal.com]

Oh. [ she takes a glance around, although she was sure that she didn't see anyone else. ] Then, they left already? I must not have noticed the other person before.

[cosmic-engineer.livejournal.com]

Hard to say, but I suspect he's still around. [brief smile] He's disembodied.

Or, [dryly] a 'formless spirit in the ether', I believe were his exact words.

[themoonspirit.livejournal.com]

[ Yue knows all about spirits, so she can understand ]

I see. We have spirits in our world, but it takes the very wise to communicate with them. I am sure this means that you are among the wisest. Though, I do hope you can settle your differences with this spirit friend of yours. [ giggles ]

[cosmic-engineer.livejournal.com]

Oh, I doubt he would agree. And we would get along much better if he wasn't insistent on hiding things from me.

[background tinkering sounds stop abruptly]

Oh, dear.

...He's, ah, back then?

[cosmic-engineer.livejournal.com]

Yes, he is. And refusing to answer me, as usual.

[broken-clock.livejournal.com]

He's almost as stubborn as we are.

As for the door - it may be that the castle was attempting to capture Omega, and got you in the bargain, what with his tendency to haunt you.

[cosmic-engineer.livejournal.com]

Then why haven't I noticed? I am not a--

fool, Doctor.
