Summary: It’s really not what Clara would call musical.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Doctor Who, or the characters.
A droning sound, like bagpipes being inflated, filled the air, and Clara clapped her hands over her ears.
“What IS that?”
“Dawn chorus,” the Doctor said, smiling. “Well, I say dawn, but with three suns there’s never really much in the way of night, and the chorus part might be a bit misleading, but still… This is how the native inhabitants greet what passes for morning.”
The one-note drone continued steadily, never varying.
“Natives? Where are they?” Clara had to shout to be heard.
“Everywhere.” The Doctor pointed at what Clara had thought were trees. “Wonderful, aren’t they?”
“Uh… sure.”
