"You too, Will, Clara," Rose nodded to each of them in turn. "Big smart family?" Rose grinned at Will. "That's great! I grew up all alone 'cept me and my Mum until recently. Maybe I'll get some practice in for my baby bro. He's only a year old now." Assuming she ever saw him again, which she didn't really expect to. If her mission succeded, she'd stay with the Doctor forever, like she promised. If she failed, she'd probably die trying. But putting a positive spin on it wouldn't really hurt.

Rose watched Clara quietly, and chewed her bottom lip in thought. How was it obvious that Rose knew the Doctor? Was it obvious she was human? Well, not too many TimeLords were going to be casual as her, even bluffing, and probably would have way more pride about their home. Which left the question, did Clara know of Gallifrey and the circular writing through the Doctor? And when?

She closed her eyes, bit her thumb, and thought it through -- only to take a diagonal step towards Will along the squares. "Next move Will, let them fill in behind me and then head out towards the corner, yeah?"

She grabbed a seat on the square, cross-legged almost meditating, practicing her Torchwood training to try to shield herself psychically, just in case. "Clara!" she called back, raising her voice slightly to make up for both their added distance. "What year are you from? You know how the Doctor is, he meets everyone out of order!"

Back to Will, she winked, dropping her voice back to casual. "He's a time traveller. The stuff of legends, just like you said, yeah? All legends gotta start somewhere."
