A mass text is sent out from the TARDIS to all of the Doctors, strays and the people they've adopted:

Your presence is required at the house. Please come.

There's no reason given as to what this is about and it really isn't a request either. When they arrive they'll find the front doors to the house unlocked and tea set out. The living room has more chairs than it normally does as if preparing for a huge group and they are.

"Oh. Yes. Right. Waiting."

There wasn't anything in his expression except despair. She keep getting taken from him. Every time he finally let himself relax and think she'd be with him until this whole war business was over with, she was ripped from him. He didn't dare let himself hope this time that Charley would be returned.

"I don't know... I don't know if I can risk getting my hopes up."

"I can risk it, then," she says in a soft voice and her arms drape around him as if she could somehow protect him from everything. "I can say she's coming home, you can have tea, and I will have hope for you and for me until she's home. If. If you can't."

Her voice drops a little.

"I won't leave until she's back."

For the second time that day, Eight leans a bit on Ril with a heavy sigh. He really has to stop being a burden on her. "I'm afraid to," he admitted, then straightened his back again and smiled weakly down at her, "But tea would be nice."

His brows knit together at her last words. "What about Six?" he asks. He really doesn't need Six upset with him on top of everything else that's going on.
