[When she looks back up at him, a storm is brewing in her eyes. They're clouded with anger, running hot through her. She wants to slap him. He doesn't even have any idea what her regret even is.
But the fact of the matter is she's only angry because she's not used to the Doctor speaking to her like this. She isn't used to him knowing her well enough that he can call her out and force her to respond.
She's used to being the one in control. Right now, she feels like the power dynamic has shifted. And that makes her incredibly uncomfortable.]

[he's turned to be in her space so she steps in closer, a tiny and furious force of nature that blusters its way right up against him. They're pressed in close, and she tips her head enough to stare up at him. Her hands are on her hips and she's quiet for a moment, before launching into a torrent of words that just spill right out of her.]
Just because I'm trying to make myself useful doesn't mean I trust Viveca. It doesn't mean I'm blind to the fact it makes me and everyone else here incredibly selfish to agree to undo something that could drastically change history. I get that we're meddling in planets in ways that could alter the flow of time and space and cause some sort of disaster. I know you tend to underestimate me, but please, just this once. Don't think I'm sweet and simple and oblivious to the reality of the situation.
