I know who you are. [A beat, as if trying to garner the courage for it. Surely her future self wouldn't have this much trouble. Would she?]

Right- sorry. River. [Amy's never been a mother, has yet to really consider it. And yet here she was, already knowing her first born.]

I don't suppose I have any mother-rights I can use even though I'm not technically a mother yet? Or I am but- you know.

At least... I know you turn out okay. That's something.
