Who Was There
Characters present in this moment
No emotional state—pure functional awareness, simply reporting what exists to systems that assign threat value
The CCTV Monitor observes the Doctor's approach through an unblinking electronic gaze, capturing every detail of his presence. Its lens records movement and triggers proximity alerts, translating visual data into immediate alarms without hesitation or interpretation.
- • Monitor perimeter for unauthorized access
- • Report detected intrusions to superior systems
- • All entrance attempts must be recorded and assessed
- • No subject is exempt from scrutiny
Focused determination laced with casual obliviousness, a confidence that presumes safety even as danger accumulates
The Doctor strides toward the Dalek-marked door with unhurried confidence, pushing his way inside as if expecting hospitality, his curiosity overriding any threat assessment. His presence precedes alarm, his very movement triggering systems that treat unauthorized access as an emergency.
- • Investigate the marked structures out of scientific curiosity
- • Find a way inside to assess potential threats
- • The Dalek insignia is a symbol like any other, not a warning
- • Entrances that open automatically demand entry without suspicion
Calculating urgency tinged with hostility, speaking like a commander encountering resistance that cannot be tolerated
Dalek 2 issues an immediate extermination-level alert upon detecting the intruder, broadcasting the breach across the Dalek Control Room network. Its authoritative voice cuts through routine operations, demanding instant escalation of security measures.
- • Immediately locate and neutralize the intruder
- • Trigger full security protocols in the invaded sector
- • Any unauthorized presence must be exterminated without deliberation
- • Human (and alien) intruders have no right to enter Dalek spaces
Calm adherence to procedure, masking neither panic nor approval, simply executing the escalation demanded by higher authority
The Technician translates Dalek policy into operational orders, directing automated systems to prolong and intensify scanning efforts across the compromised sector. Its voice carries the precise mechanical obedience of a subordinate executing emergency protocols.
- • Ensure continuous surveillance of the breached area
- • Follow Dalek command protocols without deviation
- • Security breaches must be neutralized through relentless scanning
- • Dalek orders demand immediate and total compliance
