The Doctor's (School) Office: Friday Office Hours

[The Doctor's expecting his 123 students to either stop by or leave him a voicemail this morning. He hums quietly to himself and bounces a little.]

In my view, chaos is an element. Time is an element. And order is an element. All of these things play off each other and create a balance, which we sentients muck up. If someone were to control--to make chaos into an embodied Chaos--one of the elements too greatly, that could affect and warp time.

(([pats the mun]))

She nods, clarity reading on her face. "That's what I thought. And it all begins to make sense..." The last comment is almost a whisper, and she looks back up to the Doctor.

"I'm sure you know, I...I'm not from around here, in any sense. And vun of the reasons I first signed up for this class vas the hope of possibly finding out why- why I was here, and..."

She stops, and runs a hand over her face. "I'm sorry, I'm rambling. I do have a point, somewhere."

I read your paper, Ms Belmont. [The Doctor sips his own coffee, which is now cold. His face is sympathetic.] And I can understand your motivations--there are several students with similar ones here at Fandom High. Please continue.

A small smile. "Right. And I suppose that's one of the things that's made this easier- realizing now that I'm not alone."

She pauses again. "I think...my resurrection, and possibly my being here in the present, is an act of Order to restore balance. The castle I've fought in twice now, that is Chaos embodied. One may enter and spend two days fighting, only to emerge and find a weeks, even months have passed. One room might be filled with daylight; pass through a door, and it's the deep of night."

She takes a sip of her tea, also grown cold. "Vhat I'd like to do, if you approve, is look for other instances where time might have been warped for similar purposes. I suppose...this might even be related to the predestination paradox. I'm...still working it all out. But does that make sense?"

[He nods at her.] I'm glad that you have such an interest in finding other instances of this occurence. Are you going to look in other worlds? Or are you going to merely stick to your own? Other places may have different rules regarding how time flows...the basics are the same, but one can't be certain what comes into effect.

"I definitely vant to investigate further into this world. But I don't see vhy that can't be expanded to others. Really, the only reason I didn't think of it before was because I didn't know there were any others." She grins. "But...vould you be able to help me, if I did this? Because I have no idea vhere I'd find research on this topic- for other worlds, I mean."

I'm sure I could dig something up for you, Ms Belmont. Either in the library, or in my own collection. [Maybe Nine's right, he is still a sucker for blondes.] If you're willing to put plenty of effort into the project, I'm willing to help you.

Her tone is completely serious. "Absolutely. This is not something I could do half-heartedly." She gives him a small smile. "Thank you. For listening to me, and... vell. Anything you can do vill be greatly appreciated."

It's my pleasure to assist, Ms Belmont. [He finishes his coffee.] Only through knowledge do we succeed.

"And knowledge must come through action." She smiles, and sets her empty cup back on his desk. "I've probably taken enough of your time, now. Thank you again, Doctor."

You're quite welcome. Have a good day.
