She's certainly not trying to say it is, or that it's even fun. But it is rewarding, in its own way. Well, in a lot of ways, really. Seeing the world restored and its people relieved, seeing the Doctor smile like he's just gone and won the lottery, and turning that smile on her. Knowing that they've done something good, something that allows everyone to carry on for another day.
It's dangerous and she's had a few brushes with death causing her to question her place in life and how she wanted to spend the rest of her short human-life.
Perspective. That's what it is.
It's why she chooses to be calmer than her nature would instinctively act upon. Mum would probably get up in Dylan's face about it, scold him like he's her son or something. But she's not her mum. She almost laughs aloud at the thought.
"A good plan, for a start. Good friends, really good friends, and a whole lot of luck." She pauses, thinking of what the Doctor might say. "A blue box and a sonic screwdriver never hurts either."
