The Doctor gives Eva a snort at that, the sand bouncing off. “Well, I’ve been known to manage something even then.” He could list how amazing he’s been even during a regeneration, but he’s far more interested in how to sort Eva’s problems. “Don’t worry. I’ll have you out of here. You can cut all the sandwiches you like.”

It sounded a bit…dull to him but from what he’s observed of humans, sometimes they like to cope by doing mind-bendingly dull things. It seems to work. Of course Marco’s invited to come if he ever pops by to kidnap Eva for a well-deserved vacation After All This (that’s what he’s calling this Ohm thing – “After All This”, as if it’s that simple). The Doctor seems content to stay by the fire and enjoy Eva’s company for a few moments before he suddenly snaps his fingers, remembering those banana leaves. Right! Blankets! You could do worse than gigantic banana leaves!

He gets to his feet, seeming to unfold up like scaffolding than just standing like a human, and turns on the spot, surveying their little campsite. After a pause, he reaches into his pocket and pulls out what looks like a terribly antiquated mobile phone, looking like something from the 90’s.

“Try using that to see if you can contact anyone on the outside. I’ll be back in five.”
