Who: Astrid Peth, The Tenth Doctor, Paige Matthews
What: Healing All Aspects of Astrid's unfortunate injuries
When: After Ten brings Astrid back to her room at the castle
Where: Astrid's room
Rating: PG-13 (content within this post deals with the after effects of Rape. If you are concerned about this sort of content, to sum up: Ten removes the memories of the incident, then Paige heals her injuries and helps replace the empty gaps in her memory. Paige and Ten will talk for a bit about it all and try to see if they can do something to prevent it from happening again)


Paige wasn't sure if she'd been hearing things or if it was the darn wreaths getting bumped into by all the people making out in the halls, but she had heard the jingle, and usually that only meant one thing. Considering the castle and everything she'd seen Paige wasn't sure if she wanted to answer her calling. Then her name came through clear as day and she recognized the voice of the Doctor. She'd bumped into him in the halls the other day and they had a small chat about saving people and then they went about their ways.

Now she was orbing to the sound of his voice and the jingle in her head was close to the source, which concerned her a bit. Arriving she could see the distress in Ten's face and the blonde resting in the bed wasn't doing very well at all. It worried her to think that something like this could happen in the castle, and when Ten explained what he'd done... she was grateful that he could offer up relief like that. Removing memories was always a tricky thing when it came to magic, and if a Time Lord could do it better than her then she was glad it had already been done.

Though now it was more than clear why she'd been called to the girls room, and her skills as a Whitelighter would be needed now more than ever. Nodding to the Doctor, as he no doubt is going over the memories he'd pulled from the girl, Paige moves over to the bed and winces when she sees the scratches and bruising. Her hands extend out over the girl, trying to find where things are the worse before she starts. The warm glow comes from her hands, and even though she's only healed Henry like this... she knows she can do it. She knows it's important.

It takes her a little bit longer than she'd hoped it would, but she wanted to make sure she'd helped the muscles as well as the surfaces. Tugging the blankets up over the girl she left her to rest knowing that even though they'd removed the evidence of the events it still wasn't going to be simple to go back to the way things were before. The only other thing she was concerned with was the gap in her memories. The last thing this woman needed was to wake up not knowing how she got back to her room, and to have a very upset Doctor trying to explain it away through anger.

It takes her a minute but she grabs her journal and tears a piece of paper out before she starts to compose the spell. Once it's written she recites it, "A heart betrayed with hurt and fear, has now forgotten the path taken here. Help her through her these agonies, and bless her now with new memories." Astrid stirred a bit as the spell washed over her, but she did seem to settle into the bed a bit more soundly after that.

Moving toward the door where the Doctor loomed Paige sighed and rubbed a comforting hand to his shoulder, "I'm glad you called for me, she wouldn't have handled going down to the clinic I'm sure." Paige paused for a moment seeing the distant anger in his eyes, "I used to be a social worker, I can tell this pisses you off. We can talk in the hall if you'd rather not wake her."
