Oh, I know that! But you still had me worried sick!

[oliverplus]

[frowns] I know...I'm sorry about that.

[shoutsforearth]

[sighs] Well. I'm glad you're okay. Even if you are in someone else's body.

[oliverplus]

Yeah, well, can't win 'em all, right? [smiles wryly]

Actually, this has been lucky for me. I lost my injuries when I switched.

[shoutsforearth]

Seriously?

[oliverplus]

Yeah! I'm good as new right now. [aside from his headache, but he'd rather hide that]

[shoutsforearth]

Good.

So! Are you going to come exploring with me and the Doctor, then?

[oliverplus]

Yeah, 'course I am!

[frowns, a thought occurring to him] If the Doctor'll let me, anyway.

[shoutsforearth]

[frowns herself] Oh yeah, that's a point. But what could there possibly be down there?

[oliverplus]

It's more like...uh... [he'd rather say this without actually saying it, but he realizes there's no real way to do that] He's afraid I'm going to pass out again when I turn back into me. So he might not want me going anywhere near a huge hole.

[shoutsforearth]

Could that happen, though?

[oliverplus]

If my injuries only disappeared because I changed... [shrugs, trying to make light of it]

[shoutsforearth]

[nods] But it's been weeks, though. Maybe you'll be well enough to wake up anyway...

[oliverplus]

Oh, that's not the problem! Sorry, Donna. There's nothing to worry about! The Doctor said since he put me out, he's gotta wake me up. So even if I do pass out, he just has to wake me, and I'll be okay again. [except he'll possibly have regained some physical injuries as well, but what she doesn't know can't hurt her, right?]

[shoutsforearth]

Well, why didn't you say so!

[oliverplus]

Trying to understand the whole thing kinda makes my head hurt...
