[This particular Hakuba Saguru is blinking awake from his position on the floor, obviously rather disoriented.]

Oh, what now?

You're going to go back in time, aren't you?

Of course.

[blank stare]

What would be the point of being able to see history if I never did?

... fair enough.

Speaking of time travel, I don't suppose you've seen my ship around?

I haven't seen any alien space ships, no.

It doesn't exactly look like an alien spaceship. That would draw far too much attention. More like a large blue box.

A giant blue box.

Yes, a police box, like a kōban.

[he just. nods]

[A shrug, walking forwards.]

The chameleon circuit broke, and I have not yet had opportunity to repair it.

I dunno, I kinda think the blue box has that foreign feel to it.

As I said, the chameleon circuit broke. The police box fit in perfectly in London in 1963.

How many times do you go to London, 1963?

Hypothetically, you could go at least 365 times. More if you were careful to avoid being seen by yourself.

I personally can only say I've been there eleven times.

Why only eleven?

Why should I have gone more than that? There are so many other places to go, far more interesting.

Well then, why didn't you go only once?

Because there's more than one interesting thing happening at a time.

What if there are 15 interesting things happening at a time? Would you go four more times?

That depends on how interesting they are, now doesn't it?

Let's say they're very interesting.

Then I would be there fifteen times.

Can I trade my Hakuba for you? You're a lot more interesting.
