[The video shows an apartment that may be familiar to a couple of people in this world... except part of it is scorched like there was a fire somewhere earlier. Her Pricklemane is standing nearby, a bucket and towel discarded to the side.]

Oi! Doctor!

Tell that spirit of yours, Harkness, to keep his fire spewing self away from my things! I'm not a huge fan of finding my stuff on fire! [The Pricklemane goes off screen, chittering to itself as Donna contemplates the scorched portion of the room as Donna mutters to herself before the video cuts out...]

Teaching it the bad habits of tinkering with things. Hmph. [End video]

[So much for trying to convince Wash that his spirit was better behaved. Thanks a lot, Donna.

Cue a video feed of a sputtering Doctor.

Harkness is strangely MIA.]

I'm sure he thought he was helping.

[You can just about feel that Told-You-So grin hidden behind that helmet.]

Your Spirit doesn't have quirks, huh.

[Dammit.]

Hey. I said he wasn't that unique, compared to yours. Besides, burning things is a completely normal thing for a spirit to do. And useful! [Donna probably didn't need those things anyway. Maybe those things offended Harkness in some way, and this was the only way he could express himself.] How is stealing clothes useful?!

Right. I'm so disappointed my Spirits don't destroy my friends' stuff. Obviously I've failed to train them.

[Fang the Komory Bat lands on Wash's shoulder, looking worried. Wait, he's confused. He thought they were behaving!]

[Carmen, attracted by the fact that she's currently the topic of conversation, leaps up onto Wash's lap and rolls over languidly. He's being sarcastic. Obviously we're perfect.]

I didn't say it was useful, but she doesn't destroy them on contact, either.

I bet her stuff deserved it, anyway.

[Yup, it did not take long for him to stoop to immature levels in order to "defend" his spirit. Not that he would usually defend Harkness, but this is Wash. So.

Sorry, Donna.]

[Ooh, was that ever a bad plan.]

Good job throwing her under the bus in public.

...I'll buy her new things.

Yeah, that's a good start.

First off, Doctor. The next time I see you, you better pay up on that 'new things' comment up there. My things didn't deserve to get destroyed. Think of what could have happened if my spirit and I hadn't been around to find said disaster! And keep Harkness out of my room!

And to you, Agent Washington, [don't think she hasn't been paying attention to the comms...] you should keep your spirits out of other people's things too. Harkness may have his...issues...but at least it isn't theft! Especially of certain articles of clothing!

Yes, Ma'am.

[If the Doctor is anywhere near Donna at this point, he can probably hear her say this...]

Good boy.

Believe me, I'm working on it. Carmen's too new to understand the meaning of "no chocolate for a week," but she'll learn.

Hopefully. Or she's going to be just as bad as this one.

She hasn't set anything on fire, at least.

A good thing, that.

Oh my. You're sure someone didn't just trip over a lantern?

Not when I caught him running away when it was on fire. Luckily it was only a small corner of the flat.

That is suspicious!

[he shudders, slightly.] And very dangerous. He must be one of the lizards, then? -- Oh, and please, call me Soujirou! I don't believe we've met?

Yes. Harkness is a Hebby Repp. He belongs to the Doctor.

Ok Soujirou. I'm Donna. I'm assuming you're new here?

Oh! That man who just goes by 'Doctor'? Are you a friend of his, then? -- And yes, I've only very recently arrived.

[That yell had sounded like something a friend would say. But surely there was more than one doctor in the city?

-- Perhaps not more than one who wouldn't give his name, though.]

And I suppose I'll have to be careful about which Spirits I keep! I haven't had too much luck teaching Toshi so far....

I am. We travelled together for a while. [Kinda...sorta...Long story...]

Hmmm. I wonder if it is a 'spirit type' thing...

Toshi? What kind of spirit is he?

One of the sort with the spiky fur that can shoot out from their body! But no fire yet.

It's just as well! I don't like the idea of my room catching fire while I sleep.

Oh, a pricklemane then! That's what I have too. He's his own set of trouble.

Oh! Is that what they're called? What a cute name. Do they all have very strong personalities...?

Maybe it just needs a few reminders about what it shouldn't do?

More than a few, probably.

And for the Doctor to stop teaching him bad habits.

Are you sure it isn't just how he is? The spirit, I mean.

It could be, but the Doctor's influence probably doesn't help things much.

You'd know better than I would, I think. I haven't really spoken to him that much.

I'll get right on that.

[Too thoroughly sassed to use anything other than text now.]

If you need any help I can try?

I'll keep that in mind, thanks.

Alright. And good luck.

That seems rather extreme for "tinkering"... [Not that Naoto doesn't believe it, or else she might not be saying it quite this flatly.] In any case, what was the damage? Are you harmed?

Have you met the Doctor? Tinkering can become extreme when he's involved. [Trust her, she knows.]

I'm fine. Just some of my things got scorched. I'll have to track down new ones at some point.

I see. [Spoken like a girl who's never built a miniature radio transmitter in her spare time.] It's fortunate that neither of you were hurt, at least. Burns can be quite serious.

[She falls quiet for a moment, thinking.] May I ask what was damaged?
