"Hmmm? What's that? You want to travel with me? Whyever would you want that, hmmm? Have you ever thought what it's like to be wanderers in the Fourth Dimension? Have you? To be exiles? To wander among the ghosts of the past and aliens from future times? To be cut off from your own planet, without friends or protection?"
"Heh. I see you have not. Well, it is not a quiet life. It is not a safe life. And, above all, it is not calm. And I make no guarantees that you will ever see your home at all! Hmm? None whatsoever! All I promise you is that, should you survive, you will have memories enough for a lifetime."

"Ahem. I find myself in an predicament. I am in need of threads."
"Who's up for spending some time in the company of the Doctor, hmmm?"

I want to, but I don't think any of my current characters would be able to without some timey wimey explanations. Jamie would be the most likely candidate, I think, but if you have an idea for Leela or Erida, I'd be happy to hear it!

I'd love to write with you First (and you Erida) Third would be the one more in need of threads, but Corsair is available too if you want, it all depends on the story.

Maybe he can join in with us and the Haemovores? 2 Doctors, Jamie, Victoria, and the Brigadier would be quite the thread. lol

If this happens, I can't wait to see how 1 and the Brigadier will interact with each other. I'm giggling just thinking about it. xD

And now I have an idea. It's complex, but it might just work. Here's the idea: we do the thread Highlander-style.
Check this out.
We start off with Two and Jamie and Victoria arriving at some 60s-style retrofuture colony in space. Something is killing the colonists, something tnat strikes only at night, and security is tight. So naturally, when our intrepid heroes are discovered by the guards, they are arrested as the murderers. Then, at some point, the Doctor remarks that there is something familiar about the planet.
That cueues the flashback, to the Doctor and Susan arriving and getting involved with a different group of colonists who have just arrived. The first night, something attacks a settler.
The plot then bounces between past and future. Players whose character isn't "on screen" at the moment take on the roles of minor characters so they can bluzter and threaten and scream and get eaten.
I'm not certain how to work the third Doctor in for this one. But I'd certainly be up for a 1/3 thread with Susan and Sarah Jane. Maybe something involving the Rolling Stones (as the Doctor indulges Susan's obsession with 69s and 70s Earth music)? We could call it "Sympathy for the Devil", and plot from there.

I like it, but we have no 2! Perhaps Victoria and Jamie could arrive with 2, but some kind of temporal shift happens, and it causes 2 to be replaced by 3? I don't know what would cause the temporal shift, though.

*points* What the lad said. As for the idea for Third... "Sympathy for the Devil" calls for a possession theme - colony of tiny alien parasites that like wood, metal and electrical cords making it look like the instruments are 'alive'? Backstage staff substituted by Autons? Mick & Co are actually aliens with longer lifespans than humans, bigger lungs and resistance to not so legal substances? That would explain a lot about those guys' stamina

Hey! That is a picture of me! my cape wearing Doctor says I can come tag along in his TARDIS.
Lucky again!
And it's sounding excellent monster steampunk YES.

So, First & Susan in the flashback parts, and a time-displaced Jamie & Victoria with SJ and Third in the present?
That sounds a little busy... *shrugs*

I thought Sympathy for the Devil was a separate thread idea?

I don't suppose you and Susan Foreman would be interested in the angst involving a young pre-UNIT possibly pre-travelling Emilie Gunnar meeting First and Arkytior, hm? Because I don't believe that the First Doctor wouldn't recognize his wife. Only, y'know... the perception filter is still working so she seems to have one heart. And doesn't believe you could travel space without shattering your bones... that kind of thing. It could be glorious.
