fighting the good fight with eggs and milk! (i_eggstir) wrote in we_coexist,
The round head-like structure of the dalek did a 90 degree turn so that the eyestalk faced Leto. It was easier to look at Leto than it was, what she thought, was a dead body. Her dead body, wrapped up like a present under the Christmas tree.
Oswin stopped screaming, but she wasn't speaking either. She hadn't gotten close enough to see the note on the body, she didn't want to be. The blue light from the eyestalk flickered and clicked once more as the lens focused on Leto's face.
It was the Dalek that spoke, not some broadcast human sounding voice, "THE BODY... IS IT DEAD?"
