[TM] 200 - Birds on the Wire
"Murder of crows... how awfully dreadful," Rose comments as she wanders along the street. Head tipped up and jaw slightly agape staring at all of them just perched on the wires.
"Oh... Rose Neopagans thought they were Psychic! Or go by the European legends that they are the Carriers of Death and Doom... but really they're just protectors!"
"Of what? They're... quite ominous looking, sort of give me the chills a bit." Rose is trying not to notice how many of them there are, because the numbers are increasing by the minute, but The Doctor doesn't even seem to notice. He's still going on about some signal or noise pattern he picked up. The noise that brought them to this time and this place, and Rose is utterly convinced that they know. She's starting to subscribe to that NeoPagan belief a bit because it's like they know that they don't belong here, but he's just rushing ahead of her.
"It's not right... so many of them yeah?"
The Doctor pauses and turns to look at Rose, suddenly aware of just how startled the birds are making her. With a scratch at the back of his head for a moment he glances up to the phone wires along the street, "Oh... well that's beautiful!"
"Beautiful? They're crows! And they've been adding to their numbers since we started down this lane."
"Have they now?"
Rose stopped in her tracks, fists at her side as she glared at The Doctor, "Are you mad? You haven't been hearing them? They've been cawing up a bloody storm!"
"What?!"
"Oh... yeah you're real smart," chided Rose as she rolled her eyes a bit at him. He just grinned back at her trying to coax her the rest of the way. Shaking her head in a bit of dismay she picked up her step and met up with The Doctor keeping her stride close to his as he led them along the rest of the walk.
"So what is it then? This signal that you've picked up out here?"
"Ohhh, just this chatter. Chitter really. No... Chatter. Interesting bit of noise, with a slight.. ticking. I mean it's like a clicking. No... tapping?"
"Peckin' cause... well..." Rose glanced up ahead of them, not even noting that The Doctor had paused scratching his head while trying to sort out just what sort of noise he was hearing. Still rambling along Rose tugged on one trenchcoat sleeve, "Peckin' I'd say cause... of that."
"Ooooh... well now that is beautiful. A big beautiful Black Bird... and look at you! You're just tapping away at that aren't you!"
"You know what it is then?"
"Noooo... but it'll be fun trying to figure it out!"
"Yeah... just watch out for droppin's yeah?"
