Running away in designer stilettos beats leaving your insurance

Doctor, you might want to check on the TARDIS soon. Who knows what happens when you press that big mauve button labeled DO NOT TOUCH in the basement, hmm? I do!
Not to mention the sparks that flew when I crossed the white wire with the purple one under the engine. By the way, the huge crack in the glass column was not on purpose. See, I was using the heel of my shoe (the tall black boots) to hold one of the spring loaded levers in place while I rewired the dashboard and the little gray dial spun a few of the green gears in the wrong direction when I wasn't looking. I was busy making sure the pistons on the other side of the console weren't sparking against the compressors and causing an explosion. You should be thanking me, really.
I reached over to turn them back, but I miscalculated the move and the lever sprung back. This, of course, caused the fragment links to jump and the TARDIS to fall out of sync with the vortex for a moment. (Your next ride might be a bit bumpy!) Anyways, when it hit the vortex again, it collided with itself at a previous point in the timestream which, as you very well know, immediately caused a paradox. (Sorry about that big burn on the outside; I did so love the blue paint.) To keep itself in existence, the ship briefly became a paradox machine. This essentially caused the TARDIS to bite a chunk out of itself, and all the lights to turn red and the whole ship shake. I managed to slam the lever back down before any further damage was sustained. After the wires were back in place (although they are now in a slightly different arrangement than they were before, the consequences of which you should find out quite soon!) I took the spring out of the lever. It slides out of place more often now, so you may have to tape put tape on it to keep it in position when you're flying.
Don't accuse me of not taking the blame--I'm sending you this, aren't I? Just like that custom of leaving a note with name and insurance when you've accidentally caused damage to a parked vehicle. Anyways, those were designer shoes. The damage caused to the heels will be hard to reverse. Do you have any idea how expensive it is to repair such rare Plutonian suede? Especially on stilettos as thin as those. They were in a very rare color, too!
Besides, I'm sure you'll have fun fixing the TARDIS; it should be quite a challenge! Enjoy!

  1. You know, I kind of can't believe I didn't see it before. You're not Sophie at all, are you? Sophie wouldn't run away from a problem, let alone cause one. There aren't many creatures that can clone someone as well as you did, and you didn't killed her or I would know.
    Oh, and just so you know, I'm not paying for anything. I don't pay.

    Now, what did you do to Sophie and the Master? I can tell he's not mine either.

  2. Well, you seem to have me all figured out, don't you, Doctor? You're just a tad off, though, I haven't cloned anyone. I am Sophie, just not yours. You won't find me for a while--I'm in a safe, hidden place that you won't find for a long, long time.
    You're right, they aren't dead...yet. We'll see how things play out. In the meantime, you might want to check on those twisted wires before something bad should befall your beloved TARDIS?

  4. Oh, Jack. Wouldn't you like to know? I'm sure she'll be most pleased when I tell her how long it took you to figure out I was the wrong person. She was most insistent that you would notice.
    Oh, I can picture the expression on her pale little face now. I can't wait to see it.

  6. You can find out where Sophie is in the most recent post: our list of demands. This is now officially a ransom.
    By the way, I told Sophie and the Master that you didn't notice. The Master didn't seem surprised to be honest. I also told Sophie the Doctor was thinking about not answering the demands OM and I just sent you. I might have told her something else, too, but I just can't remember what.
