"I didn't see you pushing me in front of that creature. Stop blaming yourself. I've got a mind of my own, Doctor, I make my own mistakes, you don't make them for me."
He let out a long suffering sigh as the Doctor stood. Always so good at changing the subject, wasn't he?
"Yeah," he nodded, dragging himself a little unsteadily to his new feet. Ideally he'd take hold of the Doctor and lean on him, but he wouldn't do that. His legs hurt, ached to the core. They weren't quite ready, weren't quite finished, but he'd manage.
Miraculously, his own coat was still mostly intact. The teeth of the creature had gone straight around his legs and bypassed the coat as it hung off him. It was utterly sodden with blood and various things that used to be inside his body, but he could ignore that to pull it around him and fasten the buttons up to give himself a little coverage.
"Right," he said, attempting stability and offering the Doctor's coat back towards him, "which way are we going?"
