human then... cool... let's go with that.
 Works for me.

starters.

 What was wrong with the Corsair? Everyone likes "bad girls"
don't they?

 Do you recall what the Corsair is?

 I, for one, don't recall who/what "The Corsair" is/was, Binky, so would YOU, Binky, please explain??

The Corsair has never actually been on-screen, but was mentioned briefly in a Matt Smith era episode
    The Corsair
    The Corsair was a Time Lord adventurer and an old friend
    of the Doctor, described by the Eleventh Doctor as one
    of the good ones. The Corsair changed gender a few times
    throughout their many incarnations. The Doctor noted
    with fondness that when the Corsair was female, "she was
    a bad girl." (TV: The Doctor's Wife)
    No matter which race or gender, the Corsair had "an
    amazing and trustworthy smile". They preferred to travel
    alone, in contrast to the Doctor's fondness for humanoid
    companions, but liked having a cat or a parrot on their
    TARDIS.
    First mentioned in: The Doctor's Wife
                        (TV, series 6, episode 4)
    First appearance:   Eleven Things You Probably Didn't Know
                        About the Corsair
                        (The Brilliant Book 2012)
