Robin shifted uncomfortably, feeling the Doctor's strange presence in her memories. Somehow, though, she let him continue, keeping all of her thoughts open to him... Even those that embarrassed her a little. She winced when they got to the room with the Slitheen, and though she would rather have not relived that, she let the Doctor go through all the same.<br/><br/>Soon, they were wandering back through the times before she had met the Doctor.<em>When my life was normal,</em>she thought with a wry smile. Everything was pleasant but boring. Working, talking with friends, going to school... She blushed as they got back to her high school years, when she had been really socially awkward. She was in the band and the chorus, praised highly by both directors for her musical abilities. Twitching again at a particularly sad memory, she had to struggle to let him see.<br/><br/>It was the eleventh grade. The talent show was coming up, and Robin's family plus her directors had urged her to enter that year. She had eventually given in, deciding to play the piano and sing.

Robin's voice dropped off and she stood, her face burning, before running off to the backstage area.<br/><br/>Quickly, Robin guided the Doctor out of that memory, zipping quickly through all of the others until finally arriving at one she didn't even know she had. She was wrapped in a blanket, silently looking up at a blue door. Suddenly, the door opened, and she saw two redheaded people looking down at her.<br/><br/>"Oh my God, Dennis, it's a baby," the woman said, leaning down and picking Robin up.
