[video] Apologies?

[doctordon]

[Don adjusts the camera to face him, and gives a little half-hearted wave.]

Uh. Hi... Everybody. It's been a little while since I got back to being human, but uh... I've kind of been busy with... Marvelous.

[He swallows, and then picks up a piece of paper from the table, on it is this picture]

Anyway, I just want to apologize for what I did and said while I looked like this? It felt like a real good idea to be a jerk, then? And now I'm... regretting it.

[He bows to the camera briefly]

If there's anything I can do to make up for it, just tell me. Also I feel like I might have hit on some of you while you were humans, and I'm super sorry about that? Yeah. So. Sorry.

Comments

[doctordon]

[He grimaces despite himself.]

Probably glad? I mean, it's not like my taste changed or anything.

[He looks a little uncertain whether or not that was the right answer.]

[showboater]

[Be glad Marvelous isn't interested in you, either, Don.]

Y'know, 'I'm sorry's pretty cheap.

[That's the world's least subtle hint.]

[doctordon]

[He winces.]

Well, uh... Do you want me to be more specific, or...

[He looks resigned and sighs.]

What do you want, Marvelous... I cleaned the house when I was done being a sociopath... And I haven't been making any more eggplant since you stopped being a giant robot.

[showboater]

[He can smell victory on the horizon.]

What've you got in the pantry?

[As always, the way to a man's heart, stomachs, etc. A pause, then--]

And if you could get a move on with the ship repairs, that'd be great. Might be doing some scouting in orbit.

[doctordon]

[He pauses for thought.]

I have a lot of curry fixings... I can make you a lot of curry... And then I can go to the junk pile for us.

[He looks evasive and then narrows his eyes.]

Well, I mean... I haven't ever really stopped fixing the ship. I mean... It's not like I didn't think that was fun, back then. I just... didn't do it out of loyalty to you! That said some of the stuff I did was a little dangerous so I probably have to roll it back.

[showboater]

Curry's a good start.

[He sighs.]

You know what I mean. We gotta get her totally spaceworthy, and soon. I'm getting stircrazy.

[As if this wasn't obvious.]

[doctordon]

[He rubs his head, looking kind of miserable, which at least is a change from the way he was before.]

Well... Yeah. I mean... I can do that. It'll take a few more parts, but I can probably cobble something together that can get us off the planet for a while.

Buut... I don't know how to get us back to our own universe, which all signs are saying it's not. So eventually we'd be coming back here anyway.

[He sighs, crossing his arms and leaning back.]

If we still had all the great powers, I might be able to figure something out, but now? I mean I already said this but maybe not in so many words.

[showboater]

I don't need you to jump us home just yet. Call that a side project. Trion's looking for scans--that'll help you, too.

[He has absolutely faith in you, Don! Isn't that great?]

If I had a way to get the greater powers back, I'd do it. But I can't, so we're stuck.
