Re: The Static Hour {Private}
A buzz echoed through the empty, dank alleyways as Owlen pulled her phone out of her pocket and held it up to her ear. A mechanical voice that seemed to say every syllable with a different tone began to read out a new message to her. It was from Charlie.
Owl put the phone back into her pocket. She would answer it when she reached the cafe that sat half-way between her shared apartment and her work place. There was no rush today, it was only about 6.10 in the morning, and she needed to be at the center by 10.
Soon Owl heard the familiar sounds and smelt the familiar smells. The young girl found her usual seat and sat down, a small round table in front of her. She loved this cafe, it was so cozy and familiar. The second she was settled, Toby came up to her table, "Morning Owl," he greeted in his usual friendly voice, "You okay?"
"I'm fine thanks, Toby," Owlen smiled back, "It's good to talk to you. I wasn't here yesterday."
"I know, I practically broke down into pieces," Toby began with his sarcastic humor, "I was like a puppy whose owner never came home."
Owlen laughed, "Shut up and get me a mocha and cinnamon role. I'm hungry, you know!"
As Toby left to do as he was told, Owl pulled her phone back out and began to slowly text her friend back. She was probably half way to work by now.

Doctor who? she thought to herself as she lowered her phone and began to text back, feeling carefully all the bumps on the keys of her specialized mobile. He text simply read: "Doctor who?"
Owl had met a lot of doctors, so maybe she did know him...

Suddenly, a thought came to her mind as she looked up at the Doctor. "How did you know my name?" She questioned.
"Who doesn't? Your posts on your work's website; absolutely magnifico!" He said with a large smile on his face as he put his fingers on his mouth and pulled them away as he said the last word.
"Especially, he one on aliens. You really are quite smart you know," He continued on.
Re: The Static Hour {Private}
There. That should put him in his place...

Re: The Static Hour {Private}
Deciding to show it to 'The Doctor' when he became a problem, Charlie slipped the phone into her pocket.
"Which is exactly why I need your help," At these words from the bow-tie man, the girl's head snapped up from it's angled glance at her phone.
"... Help with what?" She asked him, curiosity in her voice.
"I'll show you once were off this bus. Too risky doing it here," He said, his eyes dancing around the bus as if a rabid dog would come chasing after him at any moment.
"I'm not going anywhere with you. How do I know to trust you not to hurt me anyway?" Charlie shot back.
"Because, I'm not human. Why in the world would I want to hurt you?" Charlie's jaw slightly dropped before a laugh came to her throat.
"Sure, of course you're an alien. That makes total sense," She said theatrically.
The Doctor sighed before an idea came to mind. "I can prove it. You just need to come with me," He said.
This made Charlie's smile falter at the man. She wanted to know if he was human, in all honesty; the recent things that have been going on prove that aliens exist. The Prime Minister who called himself 'Master', those weird blobby-baby alien things, and multiple other things were in his favor. But she knew she shouldn't be alone with him. It could be extremely dangerous. He could hurt her, if he wasn't who he said he was.
"Can I bring a friend?" She asked, narrowing her eyes at the man.
"Of course! Boyfriend, maybe?" He asked, a small playful smile on his face. Charlie furiously shook her head.
"No, no, a close friend of mine," She answered.
"Oh, the girl you were just texting? Sure, I'm quite alright with that," He said.
Charlie nodded for next to no reason and sent back a text to Owl.
The man says he's an alien, and also that he can prove it. I don't want to go with him alone, for safety reasons. Can we meet you at the café and see if he's telling the truth? I know you'd easily be able to get us away from him if he's lying....
Re: The Static Hour {Private}
"What was all that about then?" It was Toby's voice that had asked as the boy came to sit next to his friend.
"Toby Dunford, you little ear-wigger!" Owlen laughed as he joined her, "It's none of your business. I'm just meeting Charlie here in a little while."
"Alright, alright, I only asked."
"You always 'only ask'. It's what you're best at. Now, don't you have a job to do?"
At that moment, Owl heard Toby's boss yelling at him to get off his backside and get busy mopping.
"Okay Dan, I'll be right with you!" Toby called back. He then turned back to Owlen, "I better go, otherwise I might end up on the menu myself."
"Don't worry," Owl teased, "No-one would order you."
Toby and Owlen laughed, before another furious roar came from Dan and Toby zoomed off, leaving his friend to wait for Charlie and 'The Doctor'.

"Is this how time normally passes? Long and boring? Haven't I already asked someone that already? Oh, I have! Who was it? Amy? I don't know, perhaps. You know, time isn't like a ball, it's more like a rug really," he droned on and on, the only response Charlie had for him was an empty nod.
She gave a small smile as they reached their destination; she could see Owl through the windows in front. She walked into the small coffee place, the door giving a small jingle like most shops had.
She and the Doctor walked over to Owl's booth together, the Doctor looking at Owl curiously. "Hello, you must be Charlie's. I'm the Doctor," he said, sitting down across from the blind girl.
Re: The Static Hour {Private}
Under the table, the girl's gloved hand clasped tightly around the tough wood of her walking cane, ready to deal with this strange man if need be.

"What's your name?" He asked enthusiastically as Charlie was practically forced to sit down next to him.
Re: The Static Hour {Private}
Just then Toby came over. "Is everything okay over here?"
Owlen turned her face to the sound of her friend's voice and smiled again, "You never pester the other customers like this."
"Sorry. Hi Charlie. Umm, hello, ugh... Sir. Can I get anyone anything?"

"Do you have fish fingers and custard?" The doctor asked him, making the girl look at him oddly. "What? It tastes delicious!" He said flabbergaste.
Re: The Static Hour {Private}
"Fish fingers and custard?" Owl said with disgust, "Is that what you said? What a weird mix."

Re: The Static Hour {Private}
She was still brimming with curiosity to what the Doctor really was; an alien, or scary-human thingy?
Re: The Static Hour {Private}
Toby tried to gather himself together enough to say, "No sir, we don't I'm afraid. Can I get you anything else?"
The young boy, only a year or so older than Charlie or Owlen, hadn't worked at the cafe longer than a year, and never had he heard such a mad request.
"I think we're okay, Toby, thank you," Owl answered, eager for her and Charlie to be alone with the Doctor to see what he wanted. She listened to Toby walking away back towards the kitchen of the cafe before turning back to the Doctor. "Why are you her?" Owl asked sternly, wanting a straight, honest and logical answer.

"To meet Charlie and you!" The Doctor said honestly and happily. "I've read a few of her articles on space and extraterrestrials and it was quite spot-on," He continued on.
"And because of this, I'll need both of your help," He said much more seriously, as if someone or something was in grave danger.

Re: The Static Hour {Private}
"Well, my ship brought me to this time and place because something's wrong here. I don't know what it is, and the only thing that I've noticed is that people are going missing, every hour. And they all have something in common, but I don't know what yet. I need help finding those people," The Doctor explained in a deadly serious tone that surprised Charlie with its intensity.
"And how do we know you're not making this up?" Charlie questioned the bow-tie man skeptically.
"Look at the tv," The Doctor said plain and simply as he leaned back in his sit, as if he knew he was right and that the two girls were wrong in not believing him. It was like an 'I told you so' face.
Re: The Static Hour {Private}
Nah, I'm just kidding, that would be our whole fricken' culture down the bog XDD
I haven't tried fish figures and custard, but I have tried custard. I quite like it, so long as it's decent quality :3
"Wait, did you say ship?" Owl said, baffled. "What do you mean, like, a boat? Or..."
Owlen stopped herself from saying the word 'alien'. She knew they existed, everyone knew that. But they weren't anything near humans, robots or freaky looking creatures maybe. But not humans. Right?

"My space ship! I call her the TARDIS," The Doctor said, extremely happy again. "Would you like to see her? I feel like that would prove what I say I am," He offered as Charlie received her coffee from Toby.
"Thanks..." She whispered to the waiter.
Re: The Static Hour {Private}
dessert dish. But it does look like mustard, which is................. disgustingly surreal XD
"The... The what?" Owl mumbled quietly when the strange man mentioned the 'TARDIS'. If truth be told, she was too baffled to argue with him anymore, when he offered a chance to go on the ship, she just stayed silent and waited for Charlie to answer for them. She might know a little more about him than Owlen herself did, after sharing a bus journey with him and all. Her friend may know if he is to be trusted or not.

"Time And Relative Dimension In Space. Basically it's a teleporting time machine," The Doctor said with a goofy smile on his face, quite proud of his 'baby'.
She couldn't help it, but the brunette's jaw just dropped. She looked to Owl, hoping she would sense her surprise, for something.
