Because, they're sonic. So I could see the robots regardless. And the robots can't teleport. THAT I would have seen. They just move REALLY REALLY fast, though for a human, I can see how you'd confuse the two. I thought I told you to be fast if you were near them.
[Oh, for Rassilon's sake. The Doctor can't stand a plea for help. And a mobile triangulates it's signal, making it easy for the Doctor to locate the lad. He backs up in time about 60 seconds, just to make sure the robot can't get him.
The TARDIS materialises around him.]
I know, I know, I said I wouldn't save you if you didn't want me to, but you really started to sound like you wanted me to.
[He gestures around him.]
So. what do you think? As I said, Time and Space machine.
I am. You? Well, that depends on you. She can be a bit testy, the TARDIS, though nothing gets through those doors. Not even the forces of Genghis Khan. And they've actually tried.
[As if the Doctor has the ability to answer any questions properly.]
[Even just thinking the phrase pops windows in front of Tsukki's eyes. So much information it hurts. Countless symbols and languages whirling into each other. Wincing, he screws his eyes shut.]
Clear it, clear it!
[Mercifully, that seems to work. The 'browser' vanishing.]
Oh yeah. They’re slightly psychic. “Point and think”. It’s why they worked so well when I was blind. Of course, they’re completely wired to me. It might take a bit for you to really control them.
[He won’t mention any other features, just in case. Obviously the browser history nearly blew his brain.]
So still doubting that I saved you, or that I’m a Time Lord or that I can travel all of time and space?
'Space', yes. You did just teleport an entire ship out of nowhere.
['Slightly psychic,' huh?
How about Design Options...
The sunglasses flicker a few times, then shift into narrower black rectangles. The lenses clearing up. For all intents and purposes? They're identical to Tsukki's glasses.
For Not_The_Question
[The problem is this IS how Tsukki spends time with people. The ones he chooses to tolerate. But if this guy can't interpret sarcasm? Oh well.
Tsukki really does intend to leave it there.
Except a half hour later...
(And who knows how long for a 'Time Lord'.]
I THOUGHT YOU SAID THE ROBOTS WERE GONE.
no subject
No need to shout.
I said I saved you from them. I never said they were gone. Two entirely different things.
[But he is wearing a smug 'see I was right' expression as he sends it.]
no subject
Guess how they tracked me the shoe YOU GAVE THE_I&
[No time for spell-checking.]
no subject
Well, how was I to know you wouldn't be smart enough to avoid them after last time?
Honestly, usually once is enough for your kind and you learn from that mistake.
no subject
Who can guess what? TELEPORT
[Yeah sure he'll just suddenly grow superpowers.]
no subject
Oh.
I was wearing my sunglasses, wasn't I?

Runs half a step before registering the voice.]
Haaa - I -
[Slowly, Tsukki turns around.
Registers the metal. Lights. The room he is standing in that he was definitely not standing in before. Blurring and whirring and - and - ]
What.
no subject
Oh, look, your knee. Let's get you into a seat, and I can fix that right up. Then we can answer questions.
no subject
He is - apparently - In a Time Machine.
Wearing his team uniform and jacket.
Still minus a shoe.]
no subject
It’s not deep. Just bleeding like a head wound. Stay here, I have a kit down below. I’ll be right back.
[He rushes to one of the desks on the level below and runs back up the next set of stairs. He opens a small plastic container and pulls out a patch.]
This will clean and heal the wound in one go. Just leave it on. It will fall off on its own once the new skin has grown back.
[Right. Now that’s taken care of.]
You have questions.
no subject
No doubt the Doctor's answered a million questions, will answer a million more.
Tsukki's going to cut to the most important.]
Are we safe in here?
no subject
[As if the Doctor has the ability to answer any questions properly.]
no subject
She's... this. The ship. The one who put your number in my phone.
[So maybe the TARDIS likes Tsukki? How would you even know?]
no subject
T-A-R-D-I-S. Time and Relative Dimensions in space. Yes. That's her.
[More accurately, you would know if she didn't like you.]
no subject
[Tsukki doesn't trust his legs quite yet, so there's a seated bow towards the column. Better to be polite.]
Nice to meet you. Pardon the intrusion.
[Though technically it's the TARDIS that intruded on him.]
no subject
No need for that, we saved you. It's hardly an intrusion. More of an invitation.
[Though, not really. The Doctor doesn't think he'd make a suitable companion, yet. He could learn. Maybe.]
no subject
Right now, Tsukki's just trying to catch his breath. Get enough oxygen to see clearly again.
Wait.
Shit.
The blurring's not from the panic.]
...You didn't grab my glasses, did you?
no subject
[Anything else, is not the Doctor's business.]
Here, you can borrow mine, they're sonic.
no subject
Maybe they'll work. In this apparent reality shift Tsukki's fallen into.
Sighing, he pulls them on.]
no subject
Good, yeah? I used them myself when I was completely blind.
Don't look at my 'browser history'.
no subject
[Even just thinking the phrase pops windows in front of Tsukki's eyes. So much information it hurts. Countless symbols and languages whirling into each other. Wincing, he screws his eyes shut.]

It's not complete control.
But also not bad at all for a first-time driver!]
