She bit her lip, and held out his hat. "I wish I could tell you what happened. I really wish I could just make things right before they ever went pear, but you know I can't."
And...she was stalling and wasting some of the few seconds the delay bought her. Honestly. She'd practiced this speech--even if it was for therapeutic purposes, and she'd always imagined something more like a message in a bottle.
"Just...when the time comes? However it takes, remember this. Remember I'm still here. Still alive, and still fightin'." It didn't mean anything to him now, she was sure, but one day it would. She hoped, at least. "I know this isn't the best example, but I swear, I am looking after th'TARDIS, and I'll do everythin' in my power to keep her safe and healthy. She's not alone. And...th'most important thing, Doctor? I'm never givin' up. I'm not stopping until I fix things again, so don't you give up. Not on me, and not on you." She offered a smile that was...almost apologetic. "Can y'please remember that for me? And...I'll see ya around, Doctor. One day, yeah?"
