"I'm going to have to tone it down a bit I think."

lol

"Having them both start out with almost the same exact thought process was brilliant."

I love the idea that Brem and the Doctor are running parallel investigations. Oh, those two. Why don't they just work *together*?

"Somehow I think Matt very much needed a visit from his best friend."

Awww, he did. Poor Matt.

"Oh, Matt, sweetheart - TELL HER!"

I really think he has. A lot. But Athena didn't take him seriously.

"See, the thing about Time Lords is that sometimes they are so THICK (because, of course, they think they know everything) that you have to be VERY BLUNT with them. I'm not worried though. I'm sure you'll figure it out."

This is so true. Matt needs to have a chat with Rose...

"One day you are going to end my agony of wanting to know what happened to Kate right?"

Someday, I promise! ;-)

"Where do you come up with this stuff?"

I honestly don't know.

"Makes me wonder how different the Doctor would have been (and how much happier) if he'd had someone like Matt around."

It was Rose who insisted that her children be more socialized than the Doctor. I think she realized how very lonely her Doctor was, more than he realizes it himself. Friends are important and necessary.

As for the Ood, no hints!
