“Is this safe?” Sometimes it was as well to check, since the Doctor didn’t always seem as aware of his surroundings as he perhaps ought to be.
“Hm? What?” The Doctor blinked at Martha. “Is there a problem?”
“We’re on a volcano.”
“Oh, that! I shouldn’t worry about it. This is a volcanic region; the place is full of them. Not many places to set down where we wouldn’t be on one.”
“Doesn’t that bother you?”
“Why would it? Volcanoes are just another sort of mountain. The only time they’re any trouble is when they erupt.”
“That’s what worries me.”
The End
