And he was sure as hell going to hear about it. He was going to have to regenerate himself a new set of ears when she was through with him, River had that much to say. If that man thought he was going to shut up just because he told her too, well then he didn't know River----
That was the point, wasn't it? He didn't know her.
That would make this easier at least. He wouldn't see it coming.

They's gotten Anita. Antita who was different. Antita, who even though she shouldn't have had favorites, still was. The only other member of her team, besides herself, not named Dave. Her student for so long, and then her teaching assistant after. The expedition was supposed to be serving as her thesis.
Damn it, but she was supposed to be getting ready to go out on her own. Exploring history.
