If she didn't get breakfast, she could find a balance somewhere in between that and dinner. The man fell silent and she wasn't sure if he was still looking at the menu or if his mind was elsewhere. While she was a witch, she was not a mind reader. Hermione pursed the menu once again and decided to get fried chicken and chip and maybe that would be enough of a comfort for her stomach. She thought the fried food would warm her up while the milkshake would be able to keep her calm. In a way they balanced each other out. "Alright." She just set the menu down, not sure if he should copy her. In her mind, it might be more suitable for him to get something different so they could share, but it was just dinner so she dropped the matter.

When a waitress came by to take their order, she gave her chocolate milkshake order and her chips and chicken and then asked to double the order since Remus hadn't given any other indication that he wanted something else to drink. The waitress wrote it down and left them alone since the diner was beginning to get a bit more busy. "It seems we got here at a good time." She commented cheerfully. She looked around and saw that most of the people were muggles but she didn't mind since she grew up with them. It made her curious about how Lupin grew up. She could only read so much about someone and sometimes it was better to ask and create dialogue. "What was your childhood like?" She asked him and then realized it may have sounded as if she was a therapist. "Sorry...I was thinking about my life growing up and I wondered what yours was like." She tried to explain.

As the blond woman began to babble about and explain to the best of her ability what had happened, he found it easy to follow along but names like Jack and Donna didn't mean anything to him, which saddened him. He was the Doctor and met so many people but he knew he couldn't feel bad for not knowing another timeline's version of companions and friends and enemies. She continued to talk about a very expansive plan created by Davros. Now that name did stand out to the floppy haired alien. He sat back and glanced off for a moment. It sounded like Rose had been through a lot and came out of it as a much stronger woman. That was a relief at least. He had come across so many companions who had died or had their lives turned upside down. 

Of course his intentions were usually good but there were times when he couldn't stop suffering or was the cause of said suffering. It seemed like she had some unanswered questions but her life was otherwise, good. Which was good. Their items were brought over before the Doctor could say anything. He smiled in gratitude and looked back to Rose. "Thank you filling me in." He told her. "It was a very cool story, I must say." The difference was that her story was real, where some were fictional. But in his experience, most were real, even those to believed to be myth or fiction. "And the mystery we've got on our hands...very cool too." He smiled to her as he began to take a drink of his tea. Mmm.
