Right, quick survey - how many of you here have the capacity for time travel? I mean technologically, not through magic or chakras or whatever other mystic shite excuse some of you have. To put it bluntly, I'm in the market for spare parts. Payment negotiable, please do inquire within.

You know I remember having a TARDIS. Lolita, what a ship she was. Never needed fixing, ran smooth as silk, that old ship. Gorgeous thing. I remember having the Doctor's ship, at that; great hulking munter she is, you've got to admire his faithfulness to her. The most faithful companion a Time Lord can have is his TARDIS, so they say. Our lives inextricably linked, so that our tribulations become theirs. If our human companions were so tied to our own weal and woe...

On a tangentially-related note, community, please have a look at these two objects. Which do you find more aesthetically pleasing?





I can't seem to decide.

I do not think either of those items is meant to be aesthetically pleasing.

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

Everyone's a critic.

[anarchy-in-ny.livejournal.com]

What's that one with the spikes even for?

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

That is a horrible name for a TARDIS. Have some taste.

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

It's my TARDIS.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

It's still a stupid name.

[earlpurin.livejournal.com]

I'm not within the population with knowledge about time travel.

However~! The second one looks adorable.

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

Ahh, that's too bad. But thank you - I rather enjoy that one myself. It has a grace and fluidity of form... the casting is more skillful, don't you think? There's no doubt as to its function.

I don't believe we've met, Mister...?

[canhaswrenchpls.livejournal.com]

the second looks kinda impressive. but you need to rethink your design. wear one of those and you'll cut your tongue off.

and my machine can't travel in time... yet. but I bet you 2000G I can get it to...

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

Precisely.

If you do, let me know.

[breakhisknees.livejournal.com]

So far, only in theory can it be achieved.

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

Tsk. This community seems woefully behind, then. Could it be that even in other universes, the Time Lords are true to their names?

[fillmydarksoul.livejournal.com]

Depends where they're going, honestly.

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

But that's not really your business, now is it luv?

[notleprechaun.livejournal.com]

Sorry, can't help. Even the Time Stop's just basically a warlock's magic sealed into portable battery packs.

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

-But you managed to seal it into a technological device... hmm. Do you know by what means this is accomplished?

[out-of-my-time.livejournal.com]

What are you doing?

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

Soliciting advice, though it doesn't seem to be going well.

[hok-ton.livejournal.com]

*thinks for a bit* There are several ways one could time travel in my universe. One could train a captive Windbringer or alter one of the inter-planet transport systems.

Might I ask what those devices are to be used for?

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

Your methods seem technological... or at least biological. Perhaps this could work. My device is working for the time being, but it's only temporary. I'll need to either repair it or install a new one.

A show of intimidation.

There's a bazooka here that can make you switch places with the you ten years in the future, but that's the closet we have so far. I'm sure it's being worked on though.

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

What an incredibly odd device. I suppose it could be useful, but... what if the you ten years from now is someplace completely different?

[biverbam.livejournal.com]

They aren't meant for it.

[doyouhearthem.livejournal.com]

Then you'd better run and tell Lucy she won't have a pretty one.
