Funny, 'cos I wonder where the TARDIS goes, at random. Maybe it lands on some outcrop by the sea. There's a tribe and they worship it for a hundred years. Then they grow up and try to burn it. Then they get wise. They preserve it. Then, they build a city all around it 'til the TARDIS is just a tiny little dot surrounded by skyscrapers and monorails. Time passes and the city falls... All gets swept away... and there's the TARDIS, still at that outcrop by the sea. She's the only thing I've got left.
“Wild Blue Yonder”
In this episode: Fourteenth Doctor (5), Donna (3), Not-Donna (3)
We came from the nothing.
We are not things.
But you... you're not nothing.
Oh, I think you'll find we're quite something!
Back on Earth, when I was the DoctorDonna, I saw your mind. I've had fifteen years without you, and I saw everything that's happened to you since, and oh my God, it hurt!
...You're saying this to break me down.
But we haven't stopped to talk, we haven't had a chance! It's always like that with you -- running from one thing to the next. I saw it! In your head... The Flux.
It destroyed half the universe, because of me. We stand here now, on the edge of creation, a creation which I devastated, so yes I keep running! Of course I do! How am I supposed to look back on that?!
It wasn't your fault!
I know!
...I'm sorry.
Donna, is that you?
Yeah.
All those years, I missed you.
[Donna approaches... then melts into the floor with a demented cackle.]
I couldn't keep it together! You are so amazing! We stare at that universe, so far away. But you have owned it! You are such a prize! What are ya?!
We drifted here, in the lack of light. Passing no time. But we would feel it, from so far away. Your noisy, boiling universe. We want to travel there. To play your vicious games, and win.
But if you existed here, no shape, no form, no purpose, then what's made you so bad?
The things we've felt have shaped us, carrying across the dark. We could hear your lives of war, and blood and fury and hate... They made us like this.
We are more than that!
Love letters don't travel very far. And neither do your lies.
Oh, I keep thinking "I wish I hadn't done that thing with the salt."
What, the bad luck thing? That was just a lie!
Normally, except... I invoked a superstition at the edge of the universe, where the walls are thin and all things are possible. Just got this feeling.
What?
The feeling of something... which is gone. Fine, good! Onwards!
