I think I know what you mean. The first winter after I moved to London... it felt so cold. Japan didn't get a lot of snow, where I lived, so it was quite a shock.
[She blinked curiously at the girl's use of 'species' though... A bit of an embarrassed blush accompanied her next words.]
Um... if it's not too insensitive for me to ask... are you... not-human? Like the Doctor? A-ah, but it's alright if you don't answer that. I realize it might be a difficult question.
[She bowed out of politeness then. The Doctor's question sunk in soon after, causing her gaze to refocus on the other room, where said painting hung.]
I... guess because something about it felt warm? Or familiar. The city shows there are people there, but there's also a balance with the surrounding area. At least, in the painting, that was the sense I got from it. Much like my own home.
[Well, at least Jenny didn't seem bothered by the question at all.]
Sorry. No, not human. Not quite the same as dad exactly either, but close. You could say I'm a bit like a copy of what dad is. Same DNA and all, but not exact either. It gets a bit complicated for most to understand all the details. Best comparison most understand is clone, but I'm not quite that either since I'm obviously not an exact copy.
At one point it was the shining stars of the seven systems. Because you're right, even with the dome, it's warm and inviting looking with the nature that surrounds it.
[Chise blinked slowly for a few moments as her brain worked to process.]
"Oh... ok." [Taking a sip of tea.] "So you... control time? Or can control how it works? And you have your own language for doing so...?"
[It didn't seem that foreign of a concept to her - after all, she had been suddenly brought into a world of mages and magic, regardless of her background.]

Oh, and blimey, here's the tea.
[The Doctor pours hot water into three mugs.]
She's a Time Lord, yes.
no subject
I... think I understand. Even so, you are still family.
[She smiled softly as she looked down at her steaming cup.]
But... what is a Time Lord? I don't think I've heard that term before...

[She picks up one of the mugs, holding it with a smile for the moment while she leans back against one of the free walls.]
