Hey peoples. I'm Trev, looking more over for an Eleventh Doctor, a possible Ianto for my Jack, or Master for Ten, or possibly a group RP with Eleven and an Amy for my Rory. I've RPed quite a bit of Doctor Who already and find myself, once again, unable to fall away from the pull ...alas. I primarily play the Tenth Doctor and Jack, though don't mind playing Eleven and also play as Rory. I would love to discuss plots that aren't listed too, feel free to post if interested!
Plots:
-- "A man who is "of sound mind" is one who keeps the inner madman under lock and key."
Inspired by this: Basically...Run
In order to understand the plot you'll want to watch it as well as read the brief description.
In short this would be a very challenging, psychological kind of story in which Eleven goes over the edge as depicted brilliantly in this video and that description. In an ideal world we would figure out great way to make for Ten to be able to interact with him at this point of going over the edge and we would plot from there, get into what we would like to toss in alongside it, but I am more than willing to also play Rory. In fact, if we could get an Amy too and piece this together so either they didn't die, or in an even more awesome twist they're from the past perhaps even alongside a past Eleven that would be crazy cool to delve into. If we went with the Eleven, dark!Eleven, Rory and Amy plot and got another person I would be more than willing to play one of either dark!Eleven or Eleven as well to make it work.
Oh another dark plot, sheesh. In essence, we bring back that wonderful period of time during Waters of Mars. I've always had a huge issue with how there were just no ramifications for what Ten did in this episode special. In my mind, if nothing else, it was just pure luck those Reapers didn't pop out and start killing everything and that point in time is still very fragile. Fragile enough that the whole ending of "The Big Bang" was enough to break it through and change the course of Ten's future.
Eleven, meanwhile, wherever he is perhaps with Rory and Amy or post-Christmas Special and leaving them to their honeymoon, begins to get new memories...rather than realizing the darkness and running from his death Ten continues down that path, leaving Eleven to be the one to stop him from possibly destroying the fabric of time itself.
For this plot, similarly, we would need to talk out more details on where we wanted to go with this. I would love to see some bonding, intense scenes, and maybe even more darkness in that threat of the whole "universe is at risk" bit.
[[This one's a bit longer to read through, re-posting from another site, and could go two separate ways. Much of either could be changed to suit Eleven too if necessary. I'll play Jack or Ten or with Ianto, Eleven if preferred (may even work better with Ianto's state of mind?)]]
Loneliness. It’s easily said this in itself is the Doctor’s greatest weakness, the thing that harbors darkness, harbors fear and sets the man off towards a much different, harsher light. It’s been about a year since Ianto’s death. During this time, unbeknown to the Doctor, Jack has been stubbornly chasing him…but for this reason there’s something else involved. No longer does Jack want to meet with the Doctor to see those travels, those days that come flooding vividly into his mind; this time it’s for something else altogether. Once upon a time it had taken Jack a hundred years to finally find the Doctor again, but this time around that isn’t the case. After so long he finally finds himself before the TARDIS, fitting his key gently into the crevices of a gold lined lock, a soft creak as the doors open before him and Jack steps in…unknown by our Doctor who arrives only to have a gun forced in his face and with a wicked grin and a wry attitude Jack handcuffs the man he idolized above all else to the side of the TARDIS’s chair, away from the controls.
The usual conversations of what ifs and whys come to light, but nothing seems to change that attitude of Jack’s, a broken man who finds a light, a recklessness as he always did, only this time it seems settled in destruction. “I gave them a chance, Doctor.” He spoke in harsh tones, but with that lighter attitude; as if mimicking cheerfulness in something of an ironic, bitter demeanor. “I gave them a chance.” Whatever he was talking about it seemed painted in his actions, the man moving against the controls, using the knowledge he has to force the TARDIS back home: to a morgue filled, piled with bodies; too many bodies to properly fit in such a place. He pushes the door open and looks out on the scene, that same reckless, bitter look, that determination that haunts of a man cast on in too many years before moving forward and pausing at a particular cold, steel slab; his eyes staring deep in the gaunt lifeless face. What he feels is reflected in coldness, mixed and broken in an expression of loss and something too fairly soft before the impossible Captain wheels his way back into the TARDIS, whipping out a squarness gun and with a few well aimed shots vaporizing the consol of the controls that store the TARDIS’s soul…and with a sudden dawning realization from the Doctor, with a yell from him and a wild, gleaming smile from Jack, the man plunges in.
Scenario 1: The DoctorxIanto Jones.
It’s a showering burst of gold that wraps against Jack and the Doctor can only watch in mingled disbelief and a passionate desire to help, to stop him, to do something as he remains trapped where he is—witnessing on his own the events that cast on by. He watches as Jack raises his head, fighting with the power, with the pain and in that still whisper of a wry, delicate smile moves a hand towards the still open door. All at once something outside shifts, a sound like rattling gasp and the Doctor’s eyes move towards it, asking again, “Jack. Jack, what have you done…” But there’s only a response in those eyes, a relief, an accomplishment, that witty grin.
“I’ve brought him back…”
There was, after all, only one thing in the world that actually could kill Jack Harkness. The Doctor could only watch as the world seemed to explode into light…only watch as Jack vanished. Forever. The one thing that had brought him back for good had been his destruction, the vortex of time, the soul of the TARDIS. The Doctor, ridden still with guilt and a laden sense of responsibility proceeds to take Ianto on as a companion. Never truly revealing to him all of the details of Jack’s death, although certainly informing the man of the fact that he was truly gone for good. As they travel they learn Ianto too can “never die” and he and the Doctor are left together to mourn and regret the loss of Jack, the Doctor now a days a much colder and bitter man as opposed to the once upon a times through his own travels alone…
Scenario 2: Jack HarknessxTenth Doctor
Jack doesn’t die, but he’s unable to revive Ianto either. The same gifts and malevolent powers bestowed on Rose are something so tremendous that Jack can’t seem to control; it overpowers him, blinding him, consuming him. He dies but reawakens and it’s still coursing through him. This goes on for what seems like weeks, in the end the Doctor managing to siphon out some of the power, albeit not enough for his own death, and locks the rest into Jack’s subconscious; triggered somehow only by violent out of control impulses, anger, and emotion. It’s the most that can be done. Jack, a husk of who he used to be, finds he can’t save Ianto and asks the Doctor to give him a way to die for good. Instead the Doctor, bitter and colder now a days, takes Jack on with some silent reluctance into his ship. After all…his worries had always been his companions getting hurt because of him…but Jack could never die. Perhaps this in itself was why the Doctor had been so afraid or averse to seeking the man out; the wisdom Jack held, the length of life, the impossibility…and somehow, maybe, it was because Jack himself was the only one capable of truly understanding or reaching his point of isolation. Still somehow the two travel, fighting each other’s darkness and trying somehow to move on again.
