[OPEN] [Groundhog Day Brainstorming Post, backdated to the fourth February 2nd.] TIME IS FLEETING...

[where_the_hearth_is]

Who: A bunch of nerds. Everybody who wants to brainstorm on fixing the Groundhog Day situation.
When: Noon->afternoon->evening on the fourth iteration of February 2nd.
Where: The House.
Summary: TIME IS WEIRD WHAT DO
Warnings: Should be pretty clean.



The House directs them all to the ballroom, a broad expanse of elaborately inlaid stone dotted with clusters of cozy chairs. Drones scoot about the room, offering plates of delicious little sandwiches, coffee, juice, and tea. The entire western wall is a single diamond-paned window overlooking the ocean, save the doors set into it that lead out to the balcony. On small tables beside the window are sleek, pen-sized implements not unlike a tablet stylus, that everyone can use to write out ideas, equations, or conceptual doodles in the responsive nano-circuitry lacing the window. Make yourselves comfortable.

OOC: Discuss ideas in small groups or larger ones, with subthreads as necessary. Feel free to ask the House to run statistical models for you. Inhabitants of the House may mingle as well, if they are so inclined.

[She laughs] I'm no Time Lord. I'm just a humble genius scientist from the Royal Space Academy. The best one in the galaxy too, I might add. [Yep. Humble.]

[hisoldgirl]

Royal Space Academy? I'm afraid I don't recognise that name. Are you now? More clever even than my Doctor? I doubt it.

[myselfexcluded]

[Eyebrow] Doctor what? [SO WARY. SO. SO WARY. But she doesn't have Clay's tramp stamp, so at least she can... Eliminate that.]

[hisoldgirl]

Oh, just the Doctor. He's a Time Lord. [smiles, standing taller] I stole him. Well, we mutually stole one another.

[myselfexcluded]

Huh. And what does that make you, my dear? [Aside from adorable. Washu can't even be annoyed by the implications that she's sub-par to some Time Lord because PFFFT.]

[hisoldgirl]

Me? I'm the TARDIS. Well, amongst other things, but I believe we've settled on that being my name for everyone else on the island. I don't suppose you're familiar with my kind.

[myselfexcluded]

Nope. [But she leans forward, clearly interested.] But with a few scans to collect your lifeform data, I could be.

Nope. <small>[But she leans forward, clearly interested.]</small> But with a few scans to collect your lifeform data, I could be. <small.[Beaming]</small> The technology here may be primitive, but I've still got mine, so it's a piece of cake to get a good idea about all the lifeforms that live here.

[hisoldgirl]

You do? [oh she's interested] I've been busy building various devices of my own but nothing to determine physiology. Though your test won't come up with much interesting, I'm afraid. This body is terribly human.
