I enjoy running as much as the next girl, course I do, but this has gone far enough. The next one of these savages that tries to shoot me, hit me, or chase me from the streets is going to wish they hadn't. I might do my very best to avoid violence but I've certainly no objections to self-defence.

My only real issue is that I don't understand why they've so much hostility but it's quickly reaching the point that I don't care. You can't help someone if they won't let you, yeah?

We didn't choose to come here, ma'am. If we had, that might be a different situation. But we were brought here by a force outside our control. We weren't asked. We didn't give our consent. And while we've been here, we've done our best to be functioning members of society. There is no reason for them to have such a sudden, violent reaction. That points to some sort of external cause. I'm not saying we need to go attacking locals, but there's no cause not to defend ourselves.

No reason that we know of. We lack a great deal of knowledge when it comes to the matters of this city, aren't we? People can be aged and changed at a wave of a hand. People can come and leave at the drop of a penny. There could be a very good explanation as to why they are being violent, and we simply do not know because we are not even allowed inside a library in which we first arrive in.

I did not say that defending yourself was a bad strategy at all, Captain. I said that violence against violence will not solve anything. Because there are those who will strike out with violence and it will escalate. You should know that better than most.

	I can get inside the library. It's not hard if you know what you're doing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is that wise to announce? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	This coming from the being announcing that they can see all of time and space at any given point? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The Collector knows my nature already. I doubt we would want him to learn you can break into the Library. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Morgan Freeman knows what I can do, lady. And if you can see everything at any given point, you should know I can do it too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's harder to actually see Time in this place. Especially in this body. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'm not quite sure if I should be amused or offended at the arrogance of your presumption that there is anything happening in my city of which I would not be aware. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I vote for amused. Mostly because if you get offended, things might happen and the Doctor will get upset. Then other people will get upset and I think we've had enough of people getting upset without adding to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Amused does seem to be less work for now. Enough people are getting offended lately, don't you think. And how are you faring, Parker? Yes, I know. Omniscience means I already know your answer, but it's rude of me to skip the question. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oooh, so you do talk to us. What an honor. Hello! ~~Not goodbye.~~ Then perhaps you can tell us why your citizens are being so brash? I am sure we would all love to know. If you have the time to answer such a question. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	At times. Hello, Idris. There are reasons, that will soon become apparent. Very soon. ;D (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's not good to keep people waiting when they are getting hurt. (Reply to this) (Parent)
