What a delightful little trinket! It's so small and compact, a pocket device. And it flips opened, there is nothing more thrilling than flipping things opened! Of course it doesn't have nearly as many buttons and levers and pullies and screens and lights as I do.

Did. Do. Did...

Did. Yes, did as in this flesh body I don't have buttons or levers or pullies or screens and lights. That's almost tragic, I always was fond of blinky lights — they drove my thief mad when I set them off at the "wrong times." I do disagree that there is a wrong time, though. Blinky lights are the best lights, much better than plain old boring solid lights.

Oh! Suddenly I'm finding myself realizing this flesh body is that one of the woman's from... But now that's interesting, isn't it? How did that happen? I thought I was back in... Stranger things have happened, I suppose. Do you know how incredibly uncomfortable it is to have a TARDIS land within another TARDIS?

Very squishy.

But!
Perhaps it's time to get back onto track, so to speak.

Hello new world of many that I have been placed onto... I'm Sexy. And I'm looking for my thief.
Have you seen him?

What's so difficult about it?

Didn't I just say that?

Did you?

Uh, yeah. Nothing you're saying makes any sense. And you're not exactly making it any better.

Well I'm terribly sorry but I'm not really used to being able to speak with anyone other than my thief to begin with, you know.

You're barely even trying.

I'm not sure how else to put it for you. I am a machine that travels through time but am trapped in a body of flesh at the moment. How much more simpler can I put things for you?

I don't know what a "machine" is.

Oh, you silly thing. Why didn't you just say so?

[ clears her throat ]

A "machine" is an apparatus consisting of interrelated parts with separate functions, used in the performance of some kind of work.

[ and now she's content because she feels like that should have completely cleared things up ]

You just used two more words I don't know. You get why this is kinda frustrating?

Did I? Well that's unfortunate, isn't it?

That's one way to put it.

Oh, I know...

The trinket you're using to communicate with me — that is a sort of machine.

And you...were a different kind of machine, then?

[Finally the crazy human...thing is making some sense. A little anyway.]

Yes, I was. Before I was placed into this flesh body. I was a much larger machine than the one you're using right now though, mind.

[ yay! progress ]

And you could travel through...time. [skeptical lion is skeptical]

And space. Yes.

Makes about as much sense as this castle, I guess.

Castle? Isn't this a city?

That's what I thought.

Now I'm confused.

How can a castle be a city? They're defined differently, it makes no sense. About as much sense as fish having fingers.

You tell me.

Oh!

Unless the castle was built around the city to house it.
Yes, that must be it.

I...don't think that's how it works.

Well then.
Now we're just back to making absolutely no sense.
