"They do all the time whenever the darkness gets them..." A sniffle and she rubbed her eyes. "My parents are still safe, s'far as I know, but I haven't been back to their Earth in forever, and anyway, that's not even the Earth I was born on."
Rose shook her head, "Nuh-uh, he's not, I looked everywhere, that's why I came back to you for clues. I'm not really a study in school type..." A slight hiccup.
At the proclamation he was a demon, and indignation over being compared to a bird, she pulled back herself with a slight giggle and peered closer. "You don't look like one," she decided, though that might be because she was used to the Doctor. "Can you breathe fire? Does Satan exist in your universe? Not that all devils know each other, but he's pretty much their King in most universes I've been through."
A head shake to the last part, and though she was back to sad toned, at least she'd stopped crying, "Nah, the Doctor's not human either. That's my friend. Who looks like you. He could have wings, but then he wouldn't have the same face."
A beat.
Then a suspicious peer, "I know not all demons are the same, and objectives completely differ, but won't it be hard for you to fight the darkness when your job is to spread it?"
She rubbed her eyes again. "Do you think Satan could escape a black hole? He could, right?" She bit her bottom lip. "He said he was the darkness, so I shot him into a black hole, but now with the darkness eating everything..." She shivered and held her arms despite the warm summer air. Clearly, she didn't disbelieve Crowley despite what she said.
And the thoughts gave her a new hope. Maybe the Doctor still could come, just late as always. He wouldn't be looking for ways out of the universe, but if the darkness spread enough, if the darkness truly was from Satan getting his revenge on Rose Tyler, and all the forces of light and creation in general, then she hadn't made the holes, Satan did, and he must have bore away out the seals on the Doctor's universe. Maybe.
