It's something that was difficult for Martha to swallow. How could it even be possible? How could something exist for that long, and that absolutely? She wasn't surprised that Susan specified that they weren't exactly people, because there was no way something could be conscious and present for that long and still be anything like a human -- or anything else, for that matter.

She wanted to ask more about it, get the details, but the way that Susan changed the subject on her made it fairly obvious that she didn't want to talk about it anymore. Maybe this wasn't the best thing to be discussing for a first conversation, anyway.

"Well, it's not humans who are living that long," Martha clarified. "I was speaking more of... other species. I've traveled a bit -- outside of Earth, that is, so I've met a few long-lived people." And non-people, but she was trying not to get too caught up in the terminology.

Normally she would have stopped there, but Martha ended up adding a bit more. "The person I traveled with is a Time Lord... he's at least nine hundred years old, I think."
