Doctor Whooves Episode 1: Disharmony and Blue Boxes

Chapter 3

Next Up, All of Time and Space

      The Doctor smiled as Twilight observed and seemed to get her attention by asking her how she liked the place. His smile grew wider when he saw the look on her face. Her jaw looked like it was going to come off it's hinges and her eyes were so wide it made her flank look small. Wait... What? Had he been checking her out? No! NO! He... he had a wife! But maybe she wouldn't mind if it was just one person, or, pony, in fact. She wasn't even in this universe, so no harm done. His train of thought was cut off by her amazingly cut jaw and perfect teeth started moving to indicate she was talking.

      "I-I" said the pony with the perfect face.

      "Welcome to the TARDIS, Twilight!" exclaimed The Doctor.

      As Twilight looked at The Doctor closer, she noticed he was shaking. "What's wrong? Why are you shaking?"

      "Shaking? Shaking? Oh, I don't know what your talking about! Shaking?" The Doctor said nervously.

Ohhh, he's so cute when he's nervous! With his little flank and tail shaking! Twilight thought. How awesome would it be to have HIM as a coltfriend!? Awesome! Wait.. What? Was she checking him out? She slapped herself in her mind. How could she? What would Shining Armor think of her? Checking out a pony she just met. But... it was her life. Shining Armor didn't rule here life and neither did anypony else. His perfectly cut jawline started moving and his tongue flapped around in his mouth, even though Twilight wanted it in her's.

      "Where do you wanna go?" asked The Doctor, a smile creeping up on his lips.

      "Go? How?" Twilight asked, now shaking herself.

      The Doctor indicated the large tube with the odd bulbous shape sticking out of the bottom. "That's a control panel. This is a spaceship. Weeeeell... Sort of." he said, a knowing smile on his lips.

       "What do you mean, sort of?" Twilight's perfect face asked with a furrowed brow.

       "Well, it doesn't only go through space, but through time. Any place. Any time. Anywhere in the whole. Entire. UNIVERSE AT ANY POINT IN TIME! Millions of possibilities. So, where first?

       Twilight thought for a moment. All of time and space? She trusted this man already, but this was surely impossible. Although, a box that was bigger on the inside was impossible as well. She looked The Doctor in his perfect eyes on his perfect face, on his perfect neck, on his perfect body, and all she knew was that she should trust this man. This perfect man. She trusted him all the way. No questions asked. She trusted this man with her life.

      "Anywhere or anytime. I don't care." said Twilight, her face glowing with happiness

      "Next up, all of time and space!" said The Doctor. At that moment, they both knew they had to be together. True love was at work here. All they saw was each other at that moment. Their eyes locked, they stared and stared, considering coming in for a kiss.

      This was interrupted by a sharp stop and a laugh Twilight recognized too well rang through the room. "Discooord!" she groaned "Why do you always have to prank ponies?" she asked, slightly angry.

      Discord appeared wiping tears out of his eyes and still laughing. "You should have seen the look on your faces!" he said between laughs, before turning towards the pilot of the ship and raising an eyebrow. "You're new aren't you?" he asked, his laughter stopping. He floated in front of him and examined him from top to bottom, before reading his mind. "Wow, you have a lot of memories to contain!" Discord said, his ears starting to droop. "So much loss... How do you deal with it?" he said, a look of sadness in his eyes, a tear dropping down his face.

       Twilight was shocked. She never thought Discord was capable of feeling any feelings. Especially not sadness. She looked him in the eyes, suddenly appreciating him more. She thought he was always a happy go-lucky prankster. And then there was The Doctor. So much loss? Had he really lost so much? She embraced him in a bone-crushing hug.

      "OK... OK! I get it you feel bad for me! Now, please get off of me!" he shouted between gasps for air.

      "Sorry, Doctor." said Twilight. "But, have you really lost enough to call it so much?" she asked, stepping away from the embrace.

       The Doctor was dumbfounded at what had just happened. She had just hugged him! He didn't care that it probably broke one of his front hooves, all he needed was the loving embrace of Twilight for all his life. Although, sadness did creep in. All that loss... He needed a hug after just remembering them. So, he got one. He ran to Twilight, tears streaming down his face, running into her arms. He hugged her and she hugged him. They were happy.
