This is Christopher, leave a message. [He clears his throat and quietly to the side whispers 'how was that Peggy? Yeah...yeah some more oomph. I thought so too']
You've reached Chaos! Leave a message or this answering machine will explode!
[He isnt sure that really can tell the difference, or even recognize the confusion or if he's being insincere as he cries. He feels the pat on his head and thats fine, it seems.
Its enough.]
I dont want to change... I just want to be somewhere safe for me and other monsters.
There are other places in the universe, however. Your options aren't just "here" and "Earth." Before I came here, I once had a TARDIS. That's a living ship that can travel in time and space, not unlike the Barge in some ways. But no Admiral, no wardens, no prison.
[He sniffles, lifting his head to rub at his eyes and look up at Eleven.
If he left Earth behind then he'd be leaving all the people he loved. But he also was starting to get attached to quite a few people on the Barge as well. He didnt want to leave them either.
His voice is a little rough and sniffly, but he does talk outloud this time.]
Would you take me with you? And if we did...would we be able to go back to Earth sometimes?
Of course! The whole point of a TARDIS is you can go anywhere in one. Earth is boring and there are humans there, but there's no reason we couldn't visit now and then if it strikes your fancy.
[Chris would need to get a lot more accustomed to violence and mass destruction in order to travel with the Eleven, but he thinks they'll get their eventually. One slow step at a time.]
Some humans are okay... [He doesn't think the Earth is boring, but the universe across time and space was certainly more interesting than New Briar City.
He rests his chin against his arm, weighing the cost of all of these things.]
I have a lot of directions I could go and I don't know which one I should choose.
I could stay here, but I don't think I want to any more. [Too many people who don't understand him, and aren't interested to.] Nokov said that he was going to create a world monsters could live in...any maybe I want to go there.
But I also want to be with you. And I don't think Cooper would want to go either direction... [Why is it so hard to make everyone happy?]
And my mom is at home on Earth, and Jordi wouldn't leave his family, and Viveka is human.
[The Nine thinks he has a solution, and speaks up.] Just steal the Earth and bring it with you.
[The Eleven replies to the Nine.]
Yes, but in order to do that we'd need to either shrink the Earth or make the TARDIS storage room much much bigger. [These are not insurmountable obstacles.] So we'd need to steal a compound mass reducer first, or reprogram the TARDIS's dimensional control.
[For once Christopher doesn't think that this is a good idea and lifts his head with a raised eyebrow.]
If I steal the earth, wouldn't I have to steal the entire solar system so the earth wouldn't freeze and kill everyone from the planet suddenly being out of orbit and rotation?
No, stabilizing fields are easy. Creates artificial heat, light, magnetic field, rotational gravity, all the things needed in the correct proportions and manner the planet is used to. I've done it before. Or rather the Nine has.
[The Nine adds:] Luxuriana was mine until the Doctor stole it from me after I stole it fair and square.
[The Eleven resumes.] Time Lords have moved all sorts of planets around. No, it really is just the storage that's the problem.
[Christopher rubs at his face, smearing tears and stains on his cheeks.]
Oh...Can you show me how to do that? I'd like to build something like that...maybe we could create an artificial planet to test it... [Though admittedly, he's already thinking about how he could do that, patting the Eleven's arm before walking over to the desk and clearing it off to start writing out designs.]
