open starter !

"i've been having these weird dreams lately," ruby found herself admitting, the latest of them still swirling around in her brain. in the most recent one, she'd been on a space station thousands of years in the future, with loads of talking babies. it had been vivid, and she was starting to wonder if she was losing it a little. she had absolutely no reason to believe those were her real memories. "really detailed dreams - about other planets, and time travel, stuff like that. what do you think it means?"

@dreadbound - ruby & morrigan.

"sorry," ruby quickly shook her head, trying to focus her attention on morrigan again. lately, she seemed to be zoning out all of the time, like her brain was working overtime - she just didn't realise how much it was trying to hide from her. "i haven't been sleeping too well, feel like my brain's all over the place. maybe we could grab coffee? caffeine's bound to help."

"feels like everyone's suddenly saying they didn't come from here," ruby mused, relieved to finally be speaking to someone else who could say they'd grown up in dc. as far as ruby's fake memories allowed her to recall, she'd moved to dc when she was young. "there's this, like, weird phenomenon of people acting like they just woke up here one day. i swear i don't remember this happening before..." which was entirely because she hadn't been here before. "what d'you reckon that's all about?"

@musingnook - ruby & jack.

"d'you believe in aliens?" a weird question, perhaps, but one she couldn't get out of her head. ruby didn't, she'd insist she never had, but they were haunting her dreams like they wanted to make sure she did. "sorry, can't seem to get the thought off my mind lately."

@shlnlngstcrs - ruby & mark.

it was refreshing to meet someone who'd been around dc for awhile – lately, ruby felt as if everyone she was coming into contact with was quick to insist they'd just arrived. it was odd. "you've always lived 'round here then?" she asked, entirely unaware that she was just as new as other people knew they were. "i was about five when my adoptive mum moved us over here. can't really imagine being anywhere other than dc now, can you?"

@irresistiibles - ruby & clara.

"–did you say the doctor?" ruby could have kicked herself. plenty of people talked about doctors, medical professionals were everywhere after all...but the weird dreams she kept having didn't seem to be about those kinds of doctors at all. "sorry, none of my business. i just...i keep having these really vivid dreams about a bloke who goes by that name. weird coincidence."

@cosmicstruck - ruby & the doctor.

familiarity twisted in ruby's gut as she stared at the blue police box. why did she feel as if she'd seen this dozens of times before? "i've had dreams about this," she said, before she could help herself. he didn't look familiar, but if anything that was a relief – she wasn't sure if she could handle the people in her dreams showing up too. "is it always here? i swear i've never noticed it before."
