[ The Doctor himself has the ability to enter anyone's mind, though he generally needs to be connected with them through touch in some way; fingers on their temples, a headbutt, whatever it takes. Though, he rarely uses that ability. ]
Consider it forgotten, then. On the one caveat: if you ever need to speak of it, call on me. I know, I know, a perfect stranger, the very last sort of person that most would ever call on. I've found for myself sometimes...there are secrets I'd prefer to protect my friends from. Thank you for the same, though.
[ More than anything, he prefers to protect his friends from the weight of the emotional toil some of the memories carry. But then, the Doctor struggles letting people too close, he always has. He gets attached easily, but on his terms. ]
Have you ever done anything quite like this before? This particular...mission? Not this exact thing, obviously, but what we've been called on to help with — the helping in general?
