Diane Holmes, Torchwood
May. 13th, 2007 08:50 pmIf anyone had been watching the sky they would have seen a plane land, the same plane that was still sat there in the grounds. To a few people there it would be a familiar sight to see as would the pilot had she not already headed inside.
1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
"Cheese." Having not long come off rationing from the war, then being in 2007 to being whenever this was now was a little confusing for her and that question didn't help. "Whatever cheese I can get."
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
"Who would they be?" Certainly no-one from Torchwood had told her who either of them were.
3. What time is it where you are?
"I don't know. But I'm hoping it's 1953..." She somehow doubted it actually was 1953 again for her.
4. If you were Albus Dumbledore returned from the dead, which member of the Order of the Phoenix would you sexually harass? How would you harass them? If you are Albus Dumbledore, please answer as if you were Sirius Black.
She gave a rather incredulous look. "I don't know who any of these people are, so I wouldn't."
5. If you are pushing to be in:
A. Slytherin - please state the clever, witty name of the bar in which you bartend, in the dark.
"The Cockpit." She smiled, saying nothing more.
B. Gryffindor ā Debate whether Harry should ultimately end up married to Fred or George. Use examples from a variety of world mythologies to bolster your argument.
She made a face at the suggestion of marriage. "Shouldn't get married, too much fun to be had, don't get that if you get stuck cooking and cleaning."
C. Ravenclaw ā You guys are supposed to be smart. Explain why my desk is inundated with paperwork at all times, even though Iām constantly disposing of it.
"Wouldn't know, don't have a desk." She looked rather happy about that.
D. Hufflepuff ā Prove you are not useless.
"I'm a pilot." That much was obvious from the way she was dressed and the fact her plane was outside. "I've won the Bendix race three years in a row, flown solo to Australia, and the second woman to travel at twice the speed of sound. I also moved transport during the war, which was how it all started actually, didn't want to go back to my old life."
6. Offer a bribe to the members of this community so that they will not squib you. Items used in bribery do not necessarily have to belong to the person offering the bribe. Do not threaten us rather than offering a bribe. A threat indicates you either don't really want to be here, or don't have enough sense to answer the question properly. The hat will automatically squib you, regardless of other votes, if you do.
"All I have is my plane, and you can't have her." The Sky Gypsy was about the only thing she had left and she was certain that was not going to be taken from her by anyone. "I'd be willing to take you flying though, that would be no problem." Any excuse to get back up there.

He wasn't trying to get his hopes up but there was this twinkle in his eye. Something that just said, 'I miss you...'

Date: 2007-05-13 09:10 pm (UTC)"I don't know." There were really a lot of things for her to consider at that point. "I don't even know where I am. I didn't make it back through the Rift then it seems." She wasn't really sure if she was happy or sad about that.

Date: 2007-05-13 09:14 pm (UTC)He slowly moved to take a step forward,
"Who knows? The Rift may have brought you here. I um.."
He breathed out heavily, trying to think of the words.

"From what I've been reading of history between the '20s and now, aeronautics had made major leaps by your time. Two wars will do that, I suppose."
