Kaite paused. "Only if you mean I got illigaly into this country when I was 10-" He said, sighing with a snicker. "Don't worry, I'm legal now."
Kaite paused. "Only if you mean I got illigaly into this country when I was 10-" He said, sighing with a snicker. "Don't worry, I'm legal now."
“Oh, good for you. I’m something of a traveller myself, and the legalities are also sketchy. But most laws are morally objectionable, so I rest my case. Besides, morality and ethics are also highly arbitrary so when it comes down to it, why think anyone to be illegal? We’re all people.” the Doctor rambled on as he stared out the window, trying to make sense of the whole thing.
Kaite sighed with relief. "Okay, but who else could be a alien, sir?"
“Hmm.” the Doctor turned to Angus. The man was picking some earwax out of his ear with a meaty finger, scratching his auburn beard with the other hand. “Not you. Not Kaite. That leaves, uh, Carrie… Callie, no, it’s Callie, Jaws, Kate, and Nari.” he said, pointing to each in turn.
Kaite nodded. "Okay." He muttered. "But how could they be aliens?"
“Well, nobody’s interested in humans, now are they? I mean, I am, but because you’re endearing. Like small dogs.” he said.
"Small dogs-" Kaite was slightly offended, but shook it off with a huff. "Good point.." He muttered, now thinking of another question to ask.
“Never mind all that. I can practically smell the perception filter from here. But because the room is so crowded, we’ll never know who it is without figuring it out through deductive reasoning skills. So, who is our alien impostor, hmm?” he asked.
Kaite looked at the people, as a man was nervously fidgeting. "What about you, sir?"
Callie looked up when he was addressed. He coughed a little, and signed ’Not me.’ while gesturing around the place vaguely.
Kaite leaned a bit close, to see. He was, curious, after all. "Are you sure, sir?" He asked, tilting his head.
’Of course.’ they signed, glaring at the other man. “I see. Well, we’ll figure whoever it is out eventually.” the Doctor said, moving to examine Nari’s eye. The woman slapped him away, growling at him a little.
(Also: Re-reading SotS for the hell of it and this line: ‘No,’ he called, his accent indicating the kind of classical education that one only got in the better schools in the southern spiral arm of the Milky Way which just goes to show that accents tell lies, this line killed me.)
(Oh-)
Kaite paused. "Did- pronouns- Sorry!" He squeaked, before awkwardly leaning his head low. "Who could it be?"
‘He/they.’ Callie signed. ’You’re fine’
Kaite sighed with relief. "Okay." He muttered, sitting in a stool. He was oddly bored.
Cold eyes darted around the room, everyone on edge and just about ready to burst with suspicion. The Doctor had unknowingly put everyone teetering on the point of a fully blown argument.
Kaite hummed, pacing back and fourth bored. He didn't know what to say- this could be life or death, after all.
He sighed.
