I can guess. Jack needed the help and I decided to give it to him.

[magicink]

That sounds good, let's go with that. We could even pretend that's why I joined the fire station.

[He laughs but there's a slight bitter tone to it.]

[handymetacrisis]

[Everything you're doing is making him more curious-- especially that bitter tone there.]

Or you could tell me the truth and a little more about this city I don't remember. And if you're nice about it, I might just sit here a little bit longer before going off to find your trousers.

[magicink]

I'll tell you anything you would like to know.

[Julian says honestly.]

I joined the fire department because Jack was giving me a second chance. I was pretty messed up and needed some help and he was one of the first willing to give it to me. You were my co-worker and we were already friends by then.

The city itself was Bete Noire, the city of Sin. It was a place of high crime, loose morals, and a group of chosen ones- as the Doctor, not you- coined us as. We weren't sure why we were there or what we were supposed to be doing besides surviving.

[handymetacrisis]

[He sits at the edge of the pool, careful not to let his trainers get wet by the water.]

I was in the biblical city of sin and I don't remember it. That's far more disturbing than being her. [Though he clearly becomes more concerned with the fact that he ended up with himself again and didn't remember that]

Tell me I at least gave myself a big ol' smack across the gob. Not that he really deserves one, but he does.

[magicink]

I don't know. I didn't know him, just you. I'll bet you did. He left not long after I got there.

[handymetacrisis]

Ah, I see. Well, I'll just assume I did and move on. Anyway, I think I promised to find your trousers. What do they look like?

[magicink]

Jeans... over there I think.

[He gestures vaguely towards the temple. That was a huge help.]

[handymetacrisis]

[It was going to take a whole search party to find the things.]

Yes, well, I can sit and chat for a few more minutes, I think. So we were both friends in this city of sin. I'd wager we have quite a few adventures, yeah?

[magicink]

More than friends. And yeah, we did. You got some crack head chick pissed and she scratched up my car. She scratched your face too.

[handymetacrisis]

More than friends. [That sounds very complicated and he doesn't really like it. There were so many implications there.

But the latter sounded about right.]

Getting myself in trouble, as always.

[magicink]

We were together. I was in love with you... still am.

[He breathes in the pot again. He felt the heartache as smartly as anything.]

Yeah, you liked to do that. I can't say I was much help there. I usually just got into it with you.

[handymetacrisis]

Oh. [That was a problem. Big. Major.]

Well, I'd better be off then. First I'll find your trousers since I promised, and then I'll have another look around. It was nice meeting you again.

[magicink]

Heh, think I'm going to try and jump you or something? Relax. I know you don't know me.
