Mortimus | Gallifreyan | Schemer A member of the once infamous Deca, Mortimus is a young timelord at the academy, trying to learn what he can from his instructors. Though he finds all the rules timlords have to follow a bit too much to deal with at times, he does care about his friends, and even the apes on Earth occasionally. Thanks to a rift in time and space, Mortimus has found himself in present day London, living in a small flat down the street from Saint Bart's Hospital. The would-be timelord is stuck working as a cab driver while attempting to figure out a scheme to get him home to Gallifrey.

Mortimus nodded back at him hesitantly, before dropping his arm with relief when the man walked over to him. The young timelord leaned against his cab and looked over at the man with curious eyes, his sudden appearence from what looked almost out of thin air, coupled with his apparent loss of memory, was much more then enough to catch Mortimus' attention. "My name's Mortimus, though these folk seem to call me Mort for short, must seem more normal without the 'imus' I suppose." he replied in his typical tone, carelessly but with a sense of calm and control.
Forgotten (Open RP)
The Master looked at Mortimus with a confused, quizzical look that he would never wear should he remember his true identity. ”London,” he mused. ”That sounds a bit familiar.” At Mortimus’ mention of the road, he looked around frantically, as if he hadn’t realized he’d been there all along. ”Right,” he said. ”I’ll meet you there.” He then walked to the side of the road, thinking over his recent conversation. The man felt familiar, but he had no idea why. He was sure he’d never seen the face before.

Men and Women of Gallifrey: The Meddling Monk
“Doctor: You know as well as I do the golden rule about space and time travel: Never never interfere with the course of history.
Monk: but who says so? Doctor, it’s more fun my way. I can make things happen ahead of their time!”

Alone on the beachfront | OPEN
It was still early in the morning, but it was warm enough to enjoy the sun just rising over the horizon. Mortimus had driven out of town towards this beachfront that he enjoyed visiting, he'd come here to think sometimes, not about anything major, this was a place to think of the little things. Finding a spot on the wooden path over the water with two wooden chairs, he sat down and took out a cigarette while he pondered to himself.

Mortimus chuckled softly as the man's 'This is London' remark, he hated to admit it, but Mortimus was growing a soft spot for London. He glanced over at the passenger curiously, was this man trying to get to know him or was he trying to figure him out, the timelord couldn't quite tell. "Ireland, I hear it's quite nice, I'll have to visit sometime." he replied, unable to really imagine Ireland, since his Earth knowledge he gained at the academy only covered so much, he silently hoped this wouldn't be the day someone figures out their cabbie is an alien.

“Just a hunch.” Jim stated simply not wanting to ruin this persona with a stream of observations, “But don’t you worry. This is London! It’s to get the swing of things here- I came over from Ireland myself…” To anyone with basic social skills it was obvious that the passenger was fishing for some kind of information, the more trained eye would see that it wasn’t just information to keep up a healthy conversation.

Mortimus let out a scoff and smirked just a bit, "You'd be surprised, it's quite a large galaxy, humans aren't alone out here." he replied, his eyes more focused on the road then Donna, though not uninterested in their conversation. "Well, it would seem kind of unlikely." he continued, shrugging his shoulders slightly, keeping the facade of the unassuming cabbie even if his cover is already blown.

“Alien invasion?” Donna snorted. This cabbie probably had no idea that Earth had been the subject of several alien invasions to date. Donna considered herself an expert on such matters, though of course she was little more than a decently informed bystander. “Don’t be thick. Aliens don’t exist.”
She smiled inwardly, laughing at a private joke. Aliens existed and she’d met them, but she always felt like she was throwing people off the scent when she rejected their cliches and colloquialisms regarding extraterrestrials.

Mortimus nodded silently and turned the key to start up the cab, it had become subconsciously written into him now. When a passenger steps into the car, start it up, type in the address for the GPS, and drive. It was typical for him to speak to the passenger, but he usually never paid any attention to their conversation, while he didn't hate the apes, they could never quite hold an interesting conversation.
Turning onto the road, merging with the other cars, Mortimus rested one arm on the window and the other on the wheel. "So, the Rose Cafe, I hear it's a nice place." he remarked, "Are you one of their servers or--" he was about to ask if perhaps she was just wanting a tea before his eyes caught just who exactly was beside him. Thankfully they were at a red light, so he had the time to stare to make sure this was in fact who he thought it was. He was sort of frozen, his mouth was open but no words could come to him, that was a first.
Fly back home | SWLiS | Ushas & Mortimus
Ushas grumbled to herself as she left the university. She hated dealing with the primitive technology that it offered, wanting to go home and deal with her more advanced biochemistry set. As the human race didn’t have what she needed yet, she would have to make due. Grumbling under her breath, she needed to get to her job. As she didn’t have the correct paper work, she had gotten a job doing something so out of the ordinary for her, working in the food service industry as a waitress.
As the brunette walked to the corner, she saw the arrival of the cab, glad she didn’t have to wait too long. She glanced around before making her way over to it. She opened the door and slide inside, not paying any attention to the driver. “Can you drop me off at the Rose Cafe on 10th Street?” She questioned, raising an eyebrow.

Mortimus blinked over at the man, noticing his singed clothing at the same time as the man had, and he couldn't help but find something almost familiar about him. The young timelord felt a tad sorry for the man, he seemed utterly lost and confused, he could easily relate to that feeling. Opening up the door of his cab and stepping out, Mortimus outstretched his hand to him. "This is London, England, in the middle of a busy street with heavy cars. My name is Mortimus, and I think you should come over to this side if you'd like to chat, mate!" he replied, almost pleading for him to step away from the road.
Forgotten (Open RP)
The Master looked up at the sound of Mortimus’ voice, and nodded. ”I don’t know where I am,” he said, “and now that I think about it, I have no idea who I am either.” He shook his head, staring down at his burned clothing and wondering what kind of mess he’d gotten himself into. ”Where am I, and who are you?”

Fly back home | SWLiS | Ushas & Mortimus
The timelord softly muttered a curse in Gallifreyan as a rather rude passenger left his cab, not even bothering to shut the passenger side door. With a roll of his eyes, Mortimus stepped out of his cab and walked over to the passenger side to shut the door. Leaning against the side of his humble cab, he put his hands in his jacket pocket, looking down the street with a sigh. He had been getting desperate lately, he had been to three different "strange occurrences" recently, and no sign of any rift activity, just run ins with monsters or aliens who knew nothing about Gallifrey. Not that he really missed home, just his friends and the promise of his very own capsule.
Hearing his radio calling from inside the cab, he stepped off the curb and towards the drivers side, only to get splashed by a puddle thanks to a speeding car. With a loud groan and another roll of his eyes, he hoped into his car, and responded to the call with more then a little annoyance. Turning back into the driving lane, he drove towards his new destination, some area of town he had only been to once or twice. Parking beside the sidewalk, he sat in the cab, patiently waiting the arrival of his new passenger. Hoping to Rassalon that it was someone friendly, or at the very least tolerable.

Mortimus laughed softly under his breath at the mention of the annoyance of having to walk home in the rain, he had to agree with her, there's nothing quite so annoying and a touch depressing as walking through the rain. "If only we could pick and choose the weather." he said aloud, almost debating if that could be something work looking into.
The young timelord looking over at Donna quickly before turning back to the road, shaking his head and smiling slightly, "It's not a problem, miss. The weather is a tad difficult to drive in, but I'm fairly sure it could be much much worse." he replied with a nod. "There could have been a tornado, hurricane, earthquake, and alien invasion, who knows!" he said jokingly.

“Yeah, sleepin’s alrigh’,” grumbled Donna, glancing a bit resentfully out the dark window but only seeing her own reflection. Her hair was atrocious. “But it can rain at nigh’, then.” Hastily, she amended her hardly formed thought. “Bedtime. S’righ’ annoyin’ when you’re tryin’ to walk home.”
“Yeah, though,” she said, returning to his question. “I jus’ work back that way.” She jerked a thumb over her shoulder inspecifically. “Tempin’, ya know?” Donna stuck out her tongue to express her frustration. She glanced up at the rear view mirror, catching sight of the cabbie’s bright, intense eyes. They kind of took her by surprise for a moment. “Sorry you gotta work on a nigh’ like this - drivin’ must be Hell in this weather … “

Mortimus blinked at the woman that stood before him, it took him about two seconds to realize he was staring at the poor girl. With a shake of his head he let out a small chuckle, "Hello miss, I can honestly say I wasn't expecting this." he replied, feeling a bit stunned to find a pretty woman living with Chuck. As Mortimus began to ponder who she may, possibly a sister or family friend? Hell, she could very well be a girlfriend, or a fan of those novels the hobo writes.
Feeling another gust of cool air, the timelord felt a faint shiver, prompting him to speak again. "I'm here to see Chuck? We're mates, is he around, he didn't move did he?" he asked jokingly, though he really did have something he had to ask Chuck's opinion on.
Awkward timing | Old!SWLiS | Fem!Chuck & Pine!Mortimus
It was getting late. It was around 8 o’clock and the sun was going down. Chuck found herself in her living room, bust like every night, reading the latest New York Times bestseller. Currently, it was a book called Harken by Kaleb Nation. It was interesting. It was about a conspiracy theory that humans were controlled by these weird lizard things.
She was so engrossed in the book that she didn’t even notice the dropping temperature. What did catch her attention was the pounding on her front door.
She recognized the voice and the nickname immediately, and she couldn’t help but let out a groan. Scrambling to her feet, she padded over to the door and opened it. She didn’t trust her new voice, so she didn’t say anything. She just stood there and looked at him.

Mortimus nodded in response, "Indeed it is, miss." he replied, glancing back at her to see her shaking out her hair. She was the fourth person today to have done that, he silently hoped that it was simply because their was wet, and not some sort of human greeting they didn't cover in the academy. "Chiswick it is." he said aloud, typing the directions into his GPS before starting the meter.
As he rejoined the lane, he glanced at the woman while she spoke, shrugged his shoulders slightly response. "I'm not entirely sure, if I have to be honest, I certainly hope not. I've found I sleep best when it's raining, but that may just be me." he replied, stopping at a red light. "So, were you just getting off work then?" he asked, curious to see what sort of job or life this human might have, their race was funny to the young timelord. He just found it humorous how some seemed to have wonderfully brilliant viewpoints or just had a kind spirit, while others were a bit more dim or simply seemed cold.
watch the night fall with the rain || Mortimus and Donna
As a cab pulled over, Donna sighed gratefully and pulled herself into the backseat. She was dripping wet, but she breathed a sigh of relief at the warm interior of the car. It was a lovely temperature inside, with the added benefit of lacking anything falling from the sky.
“Somethin’ else, innt?” she replied to his small talk, shaking out her hair perhaps a bit more than socially acceptable in a public car. “Its a bloody monsoon out there … Chiswick, please, Rodenberry Boulevard.”
She sat back, sighing again as she wiped the rain from her face. “You reckon it’ll stop tonigh’?” she asked, nodding out the window as if he was looking.
