Rodya's body froze when the Master grabbed him by the wrist and stared from his own trembling hand to the Master's face. Back and forth, watching as his own hand was moved from one heartbeat... to the next?! Two hearts?! That wasn't all that was strange to Rodya, something else scared him. The strange short haired man, claiming himself to be a Time Lord, looked just like him. A bit older perhaps but pretty much the same. A man with his appearance and two hearts who claims himself not human? Rodya's mind was spinning.
Rodya didn't care about very much the Master was talking about. A Doctor and destruction of a species, yes yes, it was all just more to add to the general confusion. Other things needed sense made from them first before his mind would even take aboard more weight.
"How it this possible? Two heart beats within one person... Does your body contain more than one soul?" he asked, squinting at him. "And why... do you look like me?" he asked, standing so closely to him, staring straight into his eyes, a confused and desperate look glinting in his own. "This cannot simply be some form of trickery or deception. Were it to be that this is nothing but a ghoulish nightmare and you, the devil in disguise..." he trailed off, unable to make any sense of things.
