Laugh all you want, Eva. Try reversing it and imagining him – or another Time Lord – trying to make a pass at you and see how you deal with it. Also maybe it’s best to let that mental image sink in for a bit.
“Giant space termites? Or another species?” The Doctor looks interested despite himself. “Right, yeah. Sometimes I forget you’re traveled. Not often I run into a human who knows about an alien I don’t.” In a way it’s refreshing.
The Doctor shrugs out of his tweed jacket, laying it on the ground. Unfortunately he didn’t think to pack blankets or pillow or even a single sleeping bag, so it’s sand and possibly giant banana tree leaves if he can find any. He’s hoping this is one of the islands that might have the ones large enough to use as a boat (in case the dinghy ever sinks…or implodes out from under them) and incidentally they do act as decent enough blankets. Good for keeping in the body heat. He'll look later, once they're settled and if he's going to go out exploring, he'll have to remember to be more careful, what with what happened in the Nothing Forest only a few hours ago. The Doctor crouches down across from Eva. In the firelight he looks alien, the orange glow casting flickering shadows across his face.
“Did you want to see space, Eva?” It’s a question he’s had for a while and since they’re here, he supposes he might as well ask. "Before Stacy. All of this." He flaps his hand.
