Legolas here isn't exactly light."br /A groan of pain left Drannor as he felt his body being shifted and lifted. br /The man grumbled something about a Rose and something to do with picking up strays. Drannor finally couldn't hold on to consciousness any longer./p

"Rose, open the Tardis door, I'll manage from here."/p

The Doctor grunted as he carried the elf into the Tardis and then laid him on the floor of the console room. "Right!" he exclaimed. "We'll drop him off to his mates...well nearby where they can find him. Don't want to startle the locals too much, considering that they are in Earth's version of the Middle Ages right now." The Doctor rambled as he started flicking switches and pulling levers./p

"We can't just leave him, Doctor. He might die if we leave him out there and he saved my life."/p

"Fine but like the last stray you picked up you're responsible for him. At least this one is better looking and he didn't leave you to die like the last one. So hopefully he won't decide to get a nifty little door for his brain. He should be healed up on his own enough in a few hours. Much better healing capabilities than humans, still not as good as me though. Doubt he can do my party tricks."/p

"Admit it you're just as excited to have an Elf on board." The Doctor grinned then. "Fine I am a bit interested, Plus with him around I'm no longer big ears anymore." br /Rose laughed, "You're just excited to brag about how he's an inferior life form."/p
