[Oh, she knew that was coming. Damn.]

You know I can't promise that. But I'll try my best, for all of you.

[Him and Cosima and Breeze, she means.]

[helpline]

Good. Because this...it's different for us. For both of us. It's different, I hate it, we're stuck.

[ The Doctor knows how this normally goes. Forget being careful because they can save the day and the swan off in the TARDIS for another grand adventure somewhere else! Except...no TARDIS. No swanning off. ]

[She can't help but give a soft smile at his frustration - it's so him. Of course he would hate this.]

I do too, sometimes. But only because I can't see the stars from here. There's plenty else about this world that I wouldn't want to give up.

[helpline]

There's some part about this world that I wouldn't want to give up on either. But I can't help but think that if the TARDIS were here, I'd simply shove my people all in there and swan off.

[ohshutup]

Your people? How many have you got now?

[helpline]

Well that depends, doesn't it? There's you and Hazel and even though none of you are technically people, you're still my people. Julian's definitely one of my people whether he realizes it or not.

[ohshutup]

Hang on, not "technically people"? Does "people" just mean a living, breathing human to you, then?

[helpline]

Of course not! But there's people and then there's people people. You're people but you're not people. I'm not people either.

[ohshutup]

So is there a word for that other than just "not people"? You've got to have a positive qualifying term.

[helpline]

I don't see why there has to be a word in the first place. There's people, there's not people. It's just like how there's blue and not blue.

[ohshutup]

There's blue, and then there's all the other colors. If you say "not blue" then no one knows what you're talking about!

[helpline]

Of course they know what I'm talking about, it's not blue. If I told you to get me a mug, oh which mug, the not blue one, you'd know which one to get!

[ohshutup]

Not if there were more than two colors of mug!

[helpline]

That doesn't change my point at all!

[ohshutup]

Your point can't be generalized if there's a vast amount of situations in which it wouldn't work at all! And there are certainly more than two types of "not people" out there.

[helpline]

Yeah, but it works in this situation!
