Wait, those glasses looked oddly familiar. Why were they so familiar? Her head pounds at the attempt of any thought, a wince briefly flickering on features before it passed. Can’t remember. It’s bugging her. She knows this man, it’s on the tip of her tongue, but she can’t place it. Whatever. She’ll remember it soon.
As light shone in her eyes, she flinched from it and batted it away from her face. Too bright. Bright hurt. What was he even doing-- wait, right, yes, checking her out for injuries and causes to her fainting. Her brain is slowly catching up with itself and the current moment. Give her a few minutes.
Last thing she remembered was a portal, going to investigate.... her name being called and her arm being pulled, falling, so much falling and then she was here. She had tried to get up but the rush of it had only gotten to her head, making her faint again. Moving too quickly, too suddenly, too soon. Urgh, her head hurt.
She mumbled under her breath, a frown creasing her brow. But, SHE was the Doctor. This man... Oh! It was then that it clicked in her brain, pieces of a puzzle slotting together and making sense finally. This man was her. He was the Doctor, and so was she. He was a past regeneration. She kicked herself mentally for taking so long to remember that.
Hearing the word ‘screwdriver’ made her perk up a little, hand clumsily stuffing into her pocket and taking hers out, holding it out to him. Did he want the sonic for something? It’s funny how you don’t realise how much you use something until you lose it.
