Before long, the feed clears, and a person appears. The woman that is on the feed has a head full of curly hair, is wearing a space suit, and looks somewhat tired.

But seeing Amelia J Pond after so many years is a shock.]

I only take the best for headaches.

Pretty sure he's headache inducing, depending on how long you let him prattle off. [A swallowed snirk.] He's here though- uh. Two of him. His tenth and eleventh face, I think. And don't worry- paradox or no, they've both been here over a month t'gether and the universe, least this one, is still intact.

He never answers his damn phone.
[Oh, damn him, and the whole damn thing, he had been so young.]
-- Amy, where are you? And him -- both of them. I need to know where in their timeline they are.

Uh, the younger one, I think, is stayin' somewhere with the Master? I haven't talked t'him much. Th'one I know's stayin' with me an' Rory, here. Hold on-- [x,y]

You know him? [The Master, she means.] Sorry if you do. [He's not exactly the cream of the crop, if you know what I mean.]

Aye aye, Captain. [...]
Oh, and uh.. S'nice to see you again. I mean, the last I saw you was- actually I think it might have been at my wedding. I think it was you, at least. --I just mean, it's nice to see someone else I actually know, from home. ... Sort of.

Ancient history to me -- but congratulations. This seems like a poor honeymoon choice.

Tell me about it. I ended up here on my own- before I'd even left Leadworth. The Doctor showed up two weeks later, an' Rory a week or so after that. [She sighs rather grumpily.] Course they're both from my future so plenty of dancing around timelines and such, there.

[River is moving, now -- she needs to see Amy for herself.]
Though I imagine the Doctor has kept his mouth shut.

He said he was from .. Ten months and a some days in my future? Rory's pretty close to him, I think, too.
