Hello, I'm Barbara Wright. I'm a history teacher. and a Cambridge professor. Haven't aged a day since the sixties. Was once an Aztec goddess, and ran over a Dalek in a truck. I also used to travel through time and space with the wonderful Ian Chesterton, and a mysterious man called the Doctor. Do you know him? ((Indie RP for Barbara Wright from the very early years of Doctor Who. Will RP with anyone, any fandom! Track the tag #itsthingswedontunderstand))

"Oh just tolerable, dear. Bloody splendid even. May I say you're looking positively ravishing. Haven't aged a day. Bit of a different story for me, of course." A grin crept across his deceptively youthful face.
"Well, I must say you compliment me too much." She mirrored his grin, almost, though her’s had a pleasant, affectionate curve at the edges. “And I apologize, but I cannot compliment you in the same way until I ask, and this may be a silly question, who are you exactly?"

How long has it been since I saw the Barbara of my universe? Oh so very long ago. Gone now, like everyone else. How do you fare, Mrs Wright?
Well, I’m sorry to hear that. Though it’s a pleasure to meet you, Sir. I hope I can fill your other Barbara’s shoes as well as I can. I fare very well, and you?

"Wow. The Doctor's wife! I never imagined him as husband material." Barbara laughed, clasping a hand to her mouth. "Congratulations! That's wonderful, Ms Song. Completely wonderful!"

"Y-you’re right. With both claims." Barbara furrowed her eyebrows for a moment, looking at the woman with a small smile. “The Doctor, yes. Me and my husband travelled with him for a time. Of course, he wasn’t my husband back then. And yes, from what we gathered we were the first he travelled with, except for Susan, of course. I didn’t mean to upset you." She added, worried that she had annoyed the woman in some way.

"Hello there." Barbara gave the man a small smile, taking a small step towards him. He seemed friendly enough, and he had offered his help, which she was grateful for. "I am a little confused, yes. Sorry, my friends and I are travellers, of sorts, and we are not quite sure we are in the right place. You wouldn't possibly know where we are, would you?"

"Ah, hello," He said, turning around holding onto his morning cuppa lightly, “Can I help you with something? You seem confused."

"I'm not to keen about the guns, myself, but they seem to be steering away from that now." Barbara noted gladly. "It would depend on who your brother is though, Miss, as to whether or not I know him."

"Ah, UNIT is good. Most of the time, don’t like the saluting. A lot of my brother’s friends end up with UNIT. Are you friends with my brother, you look the type." She smirked getting out her sonic pen.

Barbara stood up from her desk, giving the man another polite smile as she walked towards him, studying him for a second. She couldn't say she recognized him at all, quite guiltily, she felt, for he certainly seemed to recognize her. "Chesterton, yes. That would be correct. For quite a number of years, now..." She assured him quite proudly, as always, before she trailed off at his revelation, her eyes widening. The man her and Ian had spent those years travelling with, the old grumbly man who travelled through time, whom the two never stopped remembering, this was not him. "You're not the Doctor." She told him quickly, shaking his claim off. "I'd have recognized you if you were."
A big grin immediately split his face as he walked into the room. “I, uh, dunno, really. Jus’ heard that you were teachin’ here an’ thought I’d drop by. Should it have been ‘Professor’ Wright?" He asked. “Or… Professor Chesterton?" The grin still hadn’t left the Doctor’s face. Oh, to see Barbara again! Good ol’ Barbara, she was fantastic—still is, as he observed. He realized he must have looked like a lunatic to her, a stranger knocking on her door, beaming away and spouting her life story. “It’s me, the Doctor," he finally said. There weren’t any other way to explain it, right?
#//Aww! I feel honoured now!#I think you're actually the first Nine I've RPed with.#Which is awesome because he's one of my favourites.#theninthdoctor

Love how the Doctor and Vicki have been taken to the palace and are being treated like royalty, and then Ian and Barbara are being sold as slaves. You can tell who the writer's favourites were, can't you?
But Barbara and Ian being split up is horrible. It physically hurts.
