Right. So, seems to be more people affected by this 'truthful' thing. I knew there was something wrong when I was talking to Rose on Saturday. I could feel the itch of it. Thought it was just the paradox making my skin crawl again. Clearly not.

Annnyway... I appear to be at least developing some kind of resistance towards whatever it is. Which is good, can't have me being all truth-y about everything... that would be a disaster, considering my time-sense and how much I know... What was I saying? Oh yes! This truth thing! It's obviously something foreign being added, or my body wouldn't be trying so hard to get rid of and fight it. Not to mention the annoying itch.

	Me being truthful would be a very bad thing as well. Fortunately, it hasn't hit me yet. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	tenth_doc 2013-12-05 08:52 pm UTC (link)
	Hmm, I wonder why it hasn't... Perhaps there's something you haven't done or not been exposed to.. or somewhere you haven't been.. that everyone affected has. Why would it be a very bad thing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've only really been to the cottage and the bakery. And I did some walking around in town. But I've only been back here a few days. It would be a very bad thing because I was brought back in time from 2218. And I've been here on the island this whole time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tenth_doc 2013-12-05 09:32 pm UTC (link)
	Hmm. Should maybe find out where everyone affected has been... Ahh, I see. Kind of in a similar boat then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2013-12-05 09:43 pm UTC (link)
	I don't remember this happening or I'd be able to help you out. Yup. I keep getting asked questions that I really shouldn't answer and for the most part I'm doing a good job of not answering them, but I've already slipped up a couple of times and that's without being forced to tell the truth.

	It's never that easy. The burden of keeping people's futures from them is a hard one. I'm sure you're managing just fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2013-12-05 10:28 pm UTC (link)
	It never is in this place, no. I've managed to avoid death questions. So that's good. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tenth_doc 2013-12-05 10:30 pm UTC (link)
	It's isn't anywhere. Or when. Hate those questions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2013-12-05 10:32 pm UTC (link)
	That's very true. They're hard ones to not answer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tenth_doc 2013-12-05 10:36 pm UTC (link)
	Yes. They are. It's hard looking at someone and knowing how and when they will die. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	threecenturyman 2013-12-05 10:44 pm UTC (link)
	Especially when it's someone you care about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What itch? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	tenth_doc 2013-12-05 08:55 pm UTC (link)
	The one that my body's giving me because it has something in it's system that shouldn't be there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	Is the truth thing why you told me? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tenth_doc 2013-12-05 09:38 pm UTC (link)
	Erm... yes. Probably. I couldn't not answer your questions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 09:43 pm UTC (link)
	Great (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tenth_doc 2013-12-05 10:16 pm UTC (link)
	Does it matter? You know now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 10:17 pm UTC (link)
	I...you don't understand do you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Private to Rose tenth_doc 2013-12-05 10:22 pm UTC (link)
	Because I was forced to rather than doing so myself? You know why and I don't know whether I would have answered, I might have, just differently. And considering your own answers and questions, somehow I don't think all your words were what you meant to say. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Doctor torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 10:27 pm UTC (link)
	Maybe I'd never have asked, maybe I shouldn't have, because...you think you shouldn't be with me...you'd have lied and broken my heart again, just so you could feel right about loving a human? I am good enough for you, you know, stupid Timelord (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rose tenth_doc 2013-12-05 10:32 pm UTC (link)
	No. I don't think that. Everyone word that came out of my mouth in that conversation was the truth. And you know that. Rose, I know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Doctor torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 10:46 pm UTC (link)
	But you want to fight it... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rose tenth_doc 2013-12-05 11:22 pm UTC (link)
	Timelord physiology. I can feel the foreign substance inside me and my body is trying to fight it. As for being in... love with you... I don't want to fight it. I never did. You know the truth, Rose, that's a good thing. Isn't it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Rose torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 11:23 pm UTC (link)
	It is... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rose tenth_doc 2013-12-05 11:26 pm UTC (link)
	Well. Good. That's good. Good, that it's a good thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Doctor torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah...It is good (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rose tenth_doc 2013-12-05 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	Right. So... Are you mad at me? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Doctor torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 11:31 pm UTC (link)
	I'm not actually sure (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rose tenth_doc 2013-12-05 11:37 pm UTC (link)
	Right. I don't know if that's good or bad... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Doctor torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 11:40 pm UTC (link)
	It'll be fine (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rose tenth_doc 2013-12-05 11:42 pm UTC (link)
	Sure? And have you been overly truthful since Saturday? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Doctor torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 11:44 pm UTC (link)
	Well I told John...so yes (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rose tenth_doc 2013-12-05 11:45 pm UTC (link)
	You did? Yes, well.. but when was that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Doctor torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 11:47 pm UTC (link)
	That night...he rang me really drunk, said some lovely things, nearly fell over some rocks (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Doctor tenth_doc 2013-12-05 11:53 pm UTC (link)
	Right. Why did he ring you drunk? Actually why was he drunk? Lovely things? So, then and talking to me, but not recently? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Doctor torchwood_tyler 2013-12-05 11:55 pm UTC (link)
	About me...about loving me, not wanting to live without me...but no not since then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Doctor tenth_doc 2013-12-06 12:01 am UTC (link)
	He told you that? Hmm. OK. That's interesting. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	maryanne_walker 2013-12-05 09:57 pm UTC (link)
	Ugh it's annoying and wont leave me alone. It should have left my system when I shifted but it didn't. Or it came back when I shifted back. It's a pain in the ass! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	tenth_doc 2013-12-05 10:17 pm UTC (link)
	Yes it is. What do you mean shifted? And where have you been or what have you done since it started? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm a mutant. To expand on that I shapeshift into a rather large Cougar. And I don't mean the beyond middle age woman that hits on men that are young enough to be her kids.

A lot of places: I fish on the beach in the morning, take it to the supermarket and clean it, cut it, and freeze it. After that I take my youngest home, so my eldest can watch him, or take him to his Uncle George. Then I out into the forest or the jungle to hunt big game. If I'm lucky, and I usually am, I bring home a kill, clean it, and butcher it to help feed the masses I either take the meat to the supermarket or to Isabel, or to the pub. Then I spend time with my boys, doing whatever they want to do. And then once Bucky and Timmy are in bed, I go to work in the pub. I can't tell you when it started though. I'm usually brutally honest, I just don't go around singing praise about how good my Mate is in bed. Or any other exploits like that.

	Oh! A shapeshifter? Brilliant. Right. That is a lot of places. I guess I'll just compare that to where everyone else has been recently, see if it can be narrowed down. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-12-06 07:37 pm UTC (link)
	Yep, I can't shift into anything else, but I can pretty much do it at will. And varying degrees in between. If it helps I was in the pub when I let a little too much information slip, and noticed it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tenth_doc 2013-12-06 09:05 pm UTC (link)
	Still brilliant. I never get tired of shapeshifters. Excepts perhaps Zygons. They're a pain. It seems the pub is the place to investigate first. Which I will be doing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-12-06 09:27 pm UTC (link)
	What are Zygons? Does it hurt when they do it? You're welcome in the kitchen just wash your hands good if you touch the meat in the fridge. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tenth_doc 2013-12-06 10:47 pm UTC (link)
	Metamorphic beings from the planet Zygor. Big, orange, cone-headed, covered in suckers... smell horrible. They have the ability to body-print of an individual and then mimic the appearance and voice of that individual. Right. ...why? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-12-07 12:30 am UTC (link)
	My brother can do that. ~~Shit.~~ But he's originally human shaped, like me. And he doesn't smell half bad. Because I use it to feed people. (Reply to this) (Parent)
