Part of the Wibblyverse Continuity.
Part four of Doctor Whooves: Friendship is Wibbly Series 1
Previous Story: Black and Blue and Bloodied
Next Story: The Prodigal Daughter
The Doctor and Ditzy have decided to take the Cutie Mark Crusaders on a little trip to Timbucktoo. No sooner have they arrived, though, than the Doctor vanishes. A strange storm shakes the skies, and the Crusaders are stalked by creatures with dead, blue eyes. One of the Doctor's oldest foes has found him, and it's prepared to destroy the whole world rather than let him escape again.
Violence tag for an angry cloud throwing a temper tantrum. Also, zombies.

that doesn't sound good.......

Which part?
I love how the TARDIS herself is acknowledged as a character in this, however quietly... and not just by the Doctor.
Nothing against the other characters by any means, but Ditzy and Dinky are wonderful characters in their own right, as well as helping to further show depth in the Doctor’s character, and vice versa. I especially appreciate the struggle that Dinky is going through. Poor kid.

Dude. All of it.
Poor Sweetie and Button. They seem so incredibly over their head in this, even compared to the other ponies.

Oh, bugger every last kind of goat.
HOLY CRAP! THE YETI IN THE EARLIER STORY! THE MYSTERIOUS SHAPE! YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARD, YOU USED YOG-SOTHOTH!
*Ahem*
By which I mean, well played, old bean. Very well played.
CMC (and the TARDIS) to the rescue!
9483935
Fair enough!
Yep. Good for the cardio, all this world saving.
And yes, “uh-oh” is never a good sign...
Um. So, the Intelligence /wasn’t/ behind the yetis?
Or wasn’t... yet?
Or something else... was? Or...
Oh. Oh, dear.
This was marvelous. I love your CMCs and their interactions with the Turner family (or however they come to be called).
And the TARDIS is an utterly magnificent lady who needs to be properly appreciated every day.
And as for The Prodigal Daughter... that looks like it has the potential to be absolutely heart-wrenching.
With that tale in your hands, I can hardly wait.
9496675
Nope. The Intelligence certainly created the Yetis, but it wasn't controlling them. And if you think that's confusing... well, buckle in!
9496683
Thank you.
You flatter me.
Would 'I crushed you in UUS Buckball.' work better? What is it based on, by the way?
'into' should go there instead as it indicates movement, unless this is from their dialect.
As in it fixed her wandering eye temporarily? Probably scientifically impossible, but I love it nevertheless.
Nice to see that the issue isn't as bad, but it didn't disappear. I like how you did that for the Doctor and Blueblood as well.
I like how the art style for the cover resembles the one from "Closer to the Void", suggesting that it's like a mini series, but you introduce the possibility of the goblins through the ending to the last book, as well as grouping them together in a specific order... I would think that these are too, except for the slight visual difference and their current actions.

It's meant to be a pun on Wii.
(We -> Wii, us -> Uus)
9652792
I think you're the first person to mention the possibility of a mini-series -- well done, you're exactly right!
9652859
Also, shouldn't 'Uus' be capitalized?
That makes a LOT of sense.
Is 'helix' close enough?
Zombie apocolypse? Play on a Game Boy! At least it'll hopefully allow Button to process this...
Love how well you're portraying the Doctor, with his fairly simple yet creative plans, overwhelming emotions, strategic dialogue, and especially his thoughts. Those are an interesting 'comedic relief', even though the whole story has funny moments, from those where the Doctor outwits his opponents, to when you know what the antagonist will say and he walks right in and gets them to say it. Bravo, good sir!
A story to come I assume!
9483978
Aye! Cutie Mark Crusader Time Lords, yay!
9652973
Thanks! The Doctor's always a bit tricky to get just right, and I'm pleased you think I'm doing well.
'it is as'?
9652993
Yep. Thanks for the catch!
So the Intelligence changed the resonant material of all cloudstuff in the cloud as soon as they passed through? Could they just keep adjusting the frequency until it dissipates? Would it take too long? Or would it reform nearly immediately? What would happen if they tried to ram it? Would it stretch? Remain stiff? Dissolve? Get dragged across the sky? What powers the cloud to keep it solid, confined and in one piece?
9653004
It would take too long to find the new frequency, yes, and the Intelligence could simply change it again.
Well, get the password and delete them! Simple. Maybe use "sudo". Then it'll be easy to destroy every file!

Reality is overrated and easily reducible to an optimized simulation. Button isn't childish; he's just ahead of his time.
Another thrilling installment. And next time Sunset gets involved! This is sure to be good.
Wow, love the diversity between the different restaurant paetrons. It's a nice way of subtley showing us that this world is bigger than just the Map.
>I am going to kill you now, because you always pull some BS and weasel out of uncertain death.
>...by pushing you off a cloud next to a flying machine.
Is "The Great Intelligence" an ironic title?

Well, looking back at the record, it tried to create a physical form fueled by killing people based in a remote monastery, thought that the London Underground was an important strategic position, and trapped people in the internet using free WiFi that was just a bunch of alien characters. I'm going to say 'yes'.
Ah, the Great Intelligence. One of the many villians of the Second Doctor's run that was abandoned, although it was able to claw it's way back onto the show proper. Unlike some others... (one day, the Quarks and the Krotons will get their revenge...)

I just want the Weed Monsters to come back.

That's actually very mature.

Nothing is ever simple with the Doctor, is it?
11187909
No, nor has ever been.
